Download or read book Different written by Sally Clarkson and published by NavPress. This book was released on 2017-01-24 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nathan was different and Sally knew it. From his early childhood, Nathan was bursting with creativity and uncontainable energy, struggling not only with learning issues but also with anxiety and OCD. He saw the world through his own unique lens—one that often caused him to be labeled as “bad,” “troubled,” or someone in need of “fixing.” Bravely choosing to listen to her motherly intuition rather than the loud voices of the world, Sally dared to believe that Nathan’s differences could be part of an intentional design from a loving Creator with a plan for his life. She trusted that the things that made him different were the very things that could make him great. Join Sally and Nathan as they share their stories from a personal perspective as mother and son. If you are in need of help and hope in your own journey with an outside-the-box child, or if you’re an adult trying to make sense of your differences, you’ll find deep insight, resonance, and encouragement in the pages of this book. Dare to love and nurture the “different” one in your life.

J. Palacio (Wonder), Rita Williams-Garcia (One Crazy Summer), Linda Sue Park (A Long Walk to Water), and many more. Not all heroes wear capes. Some heroes teach martial arts. Others talk to ghosts.

But they all have one thing in common: they make the world a better place. Published in partnership with We Need Diverse Books, this vibrant anthology features thirteen acclaimed authors whose powerful and diverse voices show how small acts of kindness can save the day. So pay attention, because a hero could be right beside you. Or maybe the hero is you. AUTHORS INCLUDE: William Alexander, Joseph Bruchac, Lamar Giles, Mike Jung, Hena Khan, Juana Medina, Ellen Oh, R. J. Palacio, Linda Sue Park and Anna Dobbin, Cynthia Leitich Smith, Ronald L. Smith, Rita Williams-Garcia, and short-story contest winner Suma Subramaniam “As with the two previous anthologies from We Need Diverse Books, this collection admirably succeeds in making available to all readers a wider and more representative range of American voices and protagonists.” -The Washington Post

Book excerpt: T.C. Boyle was first feted as a master of the short story for his critically acclaimed Greasy Lake. With these stories applauded by People magazine as "wickedly comical," he displays once again a virtuosity and versatility rare in literary America today. Without a Hero zooms in on American phenomena such as a center for the treatment of acquisitive disorders; a couple in search of the last toads on earth; and a real estate wonder boy on a dude safari near convenient Bakerfield, California. Sharp, guileful, and malevolently funny, Boyle's stories are "more than funny, better than wicked," says The Philadelphia Inquirer. "They make you cringe with their clarity."

Book Synopsis HERO STORIES OF RUSTEM - The Hero Prince of Persia by : Firdusi/Ferdowsi
Download or read book HERO STORIES OF RUSTEM - The Hero Prince of Persia written by Firdusi/Ferdowsi and published by Abela Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2018-09-08 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rustem is the most celebrated legendary hero in Shahnameh and Iranian mythology and it is on this volume that the action and adventure movie "The Prince of Persia" was based. The name Rustem is derived from the Persian name Rostam, the name of the epic Persian hero figure who is featured in this volume. In the Shahnameh, Rostam and his predecessors are Marzbans of Sistan which is in present-day Baluchestan (Balòčestàn) Province, Iran. The Hero Tales of Rostem/Rostam rank equally alongside the Spanish epics of el Cid, the French, Song of Roland, the Finnish Väinämöinen who features in the Kalevala, the epic of Finland, of Sigurd and Brynhild in the Norse Volsung saga, the adventures and achievements of Beowulf and of the Legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. Rostam is always represented as the mightiest of Iranian paladins (holy warriors), and the atmosphere of the episodes in which he features is strongly reminiscent of the Parthian period (247 BC – 224 AD). He was immortalized by the 10th-century Persian poet Ferdowsi in the rather lengthy Shahnameh, or Epic of Kings, which contains pre-Islamic Iranian folklore and history. Rustem is best known for his tragic fight with Esfandiar, the other legendary Iranian hero, for his expedition to Mazandaran (not to be confused with the modern Mazandaran province), and for his mournful fight with his son, Sohrab, who was killed in the battle. Rostam was eventually killed by Shaghad, his half-brother who son the of Zal and Rudaba. This volume features 22 of Rustem's adventures across Persia, Afghanistan and the surrounding lands. He wore a special suit into battle, named Babr-e Bayan. Some of these adventures and feats are: Rustem the Wonder Child Rustem the Young Warrior Rustem’s Seven Labors, or Adventures Rustem the Pehliva Rustem’s Romance The Wrath of Rustem Rustem the Spy Later Feats of Rustem The Combat of Isfendiyar Against Rustem The Death of Rustem ============== KEYWORDS/TAGS: Rustem, Rostam, Persia, Iran, Folklore, fairytales, myths, legends, children’s stories, Silk Route, Iraq, east, castles, Shah, Padishah, King, treasure, riches, Kavah, Blacksmith, Feridoun the Glorious, Irij, Gentle Hero, Minuchir, Avenger, Zal, White Hair, Wonder Child, Young Warrior, Seven Labors, Adventures, Escapades, the Pehliva, Romance, Youth, Sohrab, Warrior Maiden, Wrath of Rustem, Spy, Combat, Against Rustem, Siawush, Persian Sir Galahad, Avenger, Gew, Help, Hero-prince, Throne, Later Feats, Isfendiyar’s Seven Labors, Heft-Khan, Death of Rustem, Prince of Persia, Shanemah
