Book Synopsis The Children's Corner by : Jackson Tippett McCrae
Download or read book The Children's Corner written by Jackson Tippett McCrae and published by Enolam Group Incorporated. This book was released on 2005 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not a book for children, but rather a collection of short stories dealing with loss of some kind, (emotional, spiritual, physical), The Children's Corner is a disturbing and thought-provoking, sometimes hilarious look at the human condition. Ranging from morbid to hysterically funny, these rare and occasionally bizarre glimpses into the human heart are deftly crafted jewels that show us the most labyrinthine recesses of the human psyche. McCrae covers a great deal of territory in these remarkable gems, with topics that include everything from family dysfunction, denial, pathological lying, self-mutilation, and failed suicide attempts, to Alzheimer's, infidelity, homophobia, primitive urges, tornadoes, and cross-dressing. The settings for the stories range from the rural to the Midwest, and from New Orleans to the trendy Connecticut town of Westport. All the characters are fallible and distinctive, and McCrae shows us how each and every one of us, no matter who we are or where we live, have angels and demons to wrestle with.

Book Synopsis A Place to Land by : Barry Wittenstein
Download or read book A Place to Land written by Barry Wittenstein and published by Holiday House. This book was released on 2019-09-24 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a new generation of activists demands an end to racism, A Place to Land reflects on Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech and the movement that it galvanized. Winner of the Orbis Pictus Award for Outstanding Nonfiction for Children Selected for the Texas Bluebonnet Master List Much has been written about Martin Luther King, Jr. and the 1963 March on Washington. But there's little on his legendary speech and how he came to write it. Martin Luther King, Jr. was once asked if the hardest part of preaching was knowing where to begin. No, he said. The hardest part is knowing where to end. "It's terrible to be circling up there without a place to land." Finding this place to land was what Martin Luther King, Jr. struggled with, alongside advisors and fellow speech writers, in the Willard Hotel the night before the March on Washington, where he gave his historic "I Have a Dream" speech. But those famous words were never intended to be heard on that day, not even written down for that day, not even once. Barry Wittenstein teams up with legendary illustrator Jerry Pinkney to tell the story of how, against all odds, Martin found his place to land.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perfect for fans of I Dissent comes an inspirational and empowering account of the life of women's rights icon Gloria Steinem. As a young girl, Gloria Steinem thought for herself and spoke her mind. She read many books by her favorite authors and imagined herself as the heroine of the story. Gloria wished. She read. And imagined. But Gloria grew up during a time when women were not encouraged, or even allowed, to do a lot of the things men could do: go to college, get a job, open a bank account, and more. There were restrictions that made it impossible for women to be independent or equal to men. So, Gloria set out to change that . . . Gloria listened. She watched. And wrote. Gloria believed. She marched. And dreamed. From unconventional childhood, to Smith College, to Ms. magazine, to the women's liberation movement, to feminist icon--Gloria Takes a Stand brings to the page a spirited look at Gloria Steinem's influential life, energizing a new generation of feminists to stand up and demand equal rights for all people.

It's so important to instill the importance of taking care of living creatures for our children and this story nails it. One experience is all it takes to change a child, and sometimes a whole family for the rest of their lives. Must read!!" Justine S. Children's Teacher and Business Owner "Our resilience after a painful past is a testment to the gift of Grace we receive from God. Take it from The Shaggy Donkey; until his Rescuer came to change his neglectful circumstances, he lived in pain and fear. As he followed his new Master out of his dark and lonely barn, he began to sense a joy he never knew. Eventually, in his new home where love grew on trees, The Shaggy Donkey couldn't help but hee-haw with joy and ease." Jenny M. Children's Teacher
