Book Synopsis Flying With Peek-a-Boo Multi-Colored Feathers by : Mary Ryan
Download or read book Flying With Peek-a-Boo Multi-Colored Feathers written by Mary Ryan and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2021-03-25 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Students learning how to witness the best version of themselves was an important aspect of pioneering multicultural education. I wanted the children to learn the larger truth about how the knowledge of themselves and others can spin into arguments and judgments. Unlearning something when new facts reveal that an original assumption is outdated or not factual is good! While human skin comes in a variety of shades, we all share the same color bones and the same color blood. The purpose of my book, “Flying With Peek-a-Boo Multicolored Feathers” is to share, based on my personal experience as a classroom teacher, what it is like in a classroom setting to develop in students a better awareness, knowledge, understanding and appreciation of our Canadian identity. The clinical conclusions indicate that when students are introduced and interact with people of various cultural traditions and religions as members of a family who shop at the same stores, enjoys TV and sports every bit as much as they do, the students increase by a measurable margin a better appreciation of our various Canadian traditions. Most importantly, the students also gain in self-esteem in a measurable margin.

Book Synopsis The Feather Thief by : Kirk Wallace Johnson
Download or read book The Feather Thief written by Kirk Wallace Johnson and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-04-24 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As heard on NPR's This American Life “Absorbing . . . Though it's non-fiction, The Feather Thief contains many of the elements of a classic thriller.” —Maureen Corrigan, NPR’s Fresh Air “One of the most peculiar and memorable true-crime books ever.” —Christian Science Monitor A rollicking true-crime adventure and a captivating journey into an underground world of fanatical fly-tiers and plume peddlers, for readers of The Stranger in the Woods, The Lost City of Z, and The Orchid Thief. On a cool June evening in 2009, after performing a concert at London's Royal Academy of Music, twenty-year-old American flautist Edwin Rist boarded a train for a suburban outpost of the British Museum of Natural History. Home to one of the largest ornithological collections in the world, the Tring museum was full of rare bird specimens whose gorgeous feathers were worth staggering amounts of money to the men who shared Edwin's obsession: the Victorian art of salmon fly-tying. Once inside the museum, the champion fly-tier grabbed hundreds of bird skins—some collected 150 years earlier by a contemporary of Darwin's, Alfred Russel Wallace, who'd risked everything to gather them—and escaped into the darkness. Two years later, Kirk Wallace Johnson was waist high in a river in northern New Mexico when his fly-fishing guide told him about the heist. He was soon consumed by the strange case of the feather thief. What would possess a person to steal dead birds? Had Edwin paid the price for his crime? What became of the missing skins? In his search for answers, Johnson was catapulted into a years-long, worldwide investigation. The gripping story of a bizarre and shocking crime, and one man's relentless pursuit of justice, The Feather Thief is also a fascinating exploration of obsession, and man's destructive instinct to harvest the beauty of nature.

Book Synopsis Ingenuity in the Making by : Richard J. Oosterhoff
Download or read book Ingenuity in the Making written by Richard J. Oosterhoff and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ingenuity in the Making explores the myriad ways in which ingenuity shaped the experience and conceptualization of materials and their manipulation in early modern Europe. Contributions range widely across the arts and sciences, examining objects and texts, professions and performances, concepts and practices. The book considers subjects such as spirited matter, the conceits of nature, and crafty devices, investigating the ways in which ingenuity acted in and upon the material world through skill and technique. Contributors ask how ingenuity informed the “maker’s knowledge” tradition, where the perilous borderline between the genius of invention and disingenuous fraud was drawn, charting the ambitions of material ingenuity in a rapidly globalizing world.
