Book Synopsis Lexie the Word Wrangler by : Rebecca Van Slyke
Download or read book Lexie the Word Wrangler written by Rebecca Van Slyke and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This clever celebration of words and their meanings features a strong cowgirl who wrangles words alongside cattle. Lexie is the best wrangler west of the Mississippi—word wrangler, that is. She watches over baby letters while they grow into words and ties shorter words together into longer ones; she herds words into sentences, hitches sentences together, and pens them all in to tell a story. But lately, something seems off at the ranch. First the d goes missing from her bandana, leaving her with a banana to tie around her neck, and soon afterward every S-T-A-R in the sky turns into R-A-T-S. There’s no doubt about it—there’s a word rustler causing this ruckus, and Lexie plans to track him down . . . even if it means riding her horse through the sticky icing of a desert that’s suddenly become a giant dessert. This fantastic spin on “cowboy” stories populates Lexie’s ranch with lively letters and words, alongside the typical cattle and horses, and stars a smart, confident, charismatic heroine. Rebecca Van Slyke’s creative, silly wordplay pairs perfectly with Jessie Hartland’s lively illustrations, and there’s even a glossary of helpful terms for up-and-coming word wranglers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Dara's larger-than-life personality and true-to-life middle grade issues command center stage until the curtain falls."—School Library Journal, STARRED Review Dara Palmer is destined to be a star, and she's writing herself the role of a lifetime. In this book, Emma Shevah tells a heartwarming story of one girl's experience with transracial adoption and the drama of middle school. Dara longs for stardom—but when she isn't cast in her middle school's production of The Sound of Music, she gets suspicious. It can't be because she's not the best.

So irrepressible Dara comes up with a genius plan to shake up the school: write a play about her own life. Then she'll have to be the star.

Download or read book More Than a Body written by Lexie Kite and published by Houghton Mifflin. This book was released on 2020-12-29 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drs. Lindsay and Lexie Kite know firsthand how hard filtering out media influence is when it comes to self-image. Both struggled as young women to overcome the expectations of body size and shape, but were able to learn to love, appreciate, and reclaim their own bodies, eventually earning their PhDs in body image resilience. The twin sisters founded the nonprofit Beauty Redefined and have made it their mission to help other women see themselves without societal expectations distorting their self-perception. More than a Body is a self-help book focused on going beyond body positivity, showing how a mindset focused on appearance sets women up for insecurities and self-judgement. In this book, they offer an action plan for readers to combat that mindset, and instead learn how the body can be "an instrument, not an ornament," with practical, actionable steps to take when consuming media, exercising, practicing self-reflection and self-compassion, and finding a purpose in life.

Book excerpt: The #1 New York Times bestseller! “Witty, wise, and tender. It's a marvel.” —Paula Hawkins, author of The Girl on the Train and A Slow Fire Burning “To say I love this book is an understatement. It’s a deep psychological mystery about the power of motherhood, the intensity of teenage love, and the danger of perfection. It moved me to tears.” —Reese Witherspoon From the bestselling author of Everything I Never Told You and Our Missing Hearts comes a riveting novel that traces the intertwined fates of the picture-perfect Richardson family and the enigmatic mother and daughter who upend their lives. In Shaker Heights, a placid, progressive suburb of Cleveland, everything is planned—from the layout of the winding roads, to the colors of the houses, to the successful lives its residents will go on to lead. And no one embodies this spirit more than Elena Richardson, whose guiding principle is playing by the rules. Enter Mia Warren—an enigmatic artist and single mother—who arrives in this idyllic bubble with her teenaged daughter Pearl, and rents a house from the Richardsons. Soon Mia and Pearl become more than tenants: all four Richardson children are drawn to the mother-daughter pair. But Mia carries with her a mysterious past and a disregard for the status quo that threatens to upend this carefully ordered community. When old family friends of the Richardsons attempt to adopt a Chinese-American baby, a custody battle erupts that dramatically divides the town—and puts Mia and Elena on opposing sides. Suspicious of Mia and her motives, Elena is determined to uncover the secrets in Mia’s past. But her obsession will come at unexpected and devastating costs. Little Fires Everywhere explores the weight of secrets, the nature of art and identity, and the ferocious pull of motherhood—and the danger of believing that following the rules can avert disaster.

Download or read book The Alder Bed written by Annette Martin and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2018-10-10 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Alder Bed is an intricate, multi-generational family saga filled with secrets and regrets. We meet the Fishers, a minor fish trading family living in a small Newfoundland outport near the turn of the century. In 1914, Captain Ken Fisher dies at sea. Bereft, his fifteen-year-old daughter, Lexie, becomes involved with Dan Connor, local hell-raiser, and becomes pregnant. They marry in 1915, as he prepares to leave for the war. Upon his return, Dan, unable to settle back into his old life, turns to alcohol. Lexie gives birth to three daughters in quick succession, but, largely abandoned by her husband, frail by nature and beset by painful memories, she suffers a breakdown and is institutionalized. Deprived of their mother’s presence, and without any meaningful parental stability, her daughters grow up estranged from one another, each one harbouring her own tightly-held memories and secrets. The Alder Bed is a complex story of loss and heartache. By focusing on the women of three generations, and on the man who dominated their lives, it demonstrates the fortitude of women living harsh lives with men either literally absent or emotionally bankrupt. Readers will find this rich, authentic, if disturbing, portrayal of women’s lives in a remote coastal town deeply convincing and entirely captivating, and will race towards the ending as dark secrets are revealed.
