Download or read book The Snowy Day written by Ezra Jack Keats and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2012-10-11 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The magic and wonder of winter’s first snowfall is perfectly captured in Ezra Jack Keat’s Caldecott Medal-winning picture book. Young readers can enjoy this celebrated classic as a full-sized board book, perfect for read-alouds of all kinds and a great gift for the holiday season. In 1962, a little boy named Peter put on his snowsuit and stepped out of his house and into the hearts of millions of readers. Universal in its appeal, this story beautifully depicts a child's wonder at a new world, and the hope of capturing and keeping that wonder forever. This big, sturdy edition will bring even more young readers to the story of Peter and his adventures in the snow. Ezra Jack Keats was also the creator of such classics as Goggles, A Letter to Amy, Pet Show!, Peter’s Chair, and A Whistle for Willie. (This book is also available in Spanish, as Un dia de nieve.) Praise for The Snowy Day: “Keats made Peter’s world so inviting that it beckons us. Perhaps the busyness of daily life in the 21st century makes us appreciate Peter even more—a kid who has the luxury of a whole day to just be outside, surrounded by snow that’s begging to be enjoyed.” —The Atlantic "Ezra Jack Keats's classic The Snowy Day, winner of the 1963 Caldecott Medal, pays homage to the wonder and pure pleasure a child experiences when the world is blanketed in snow."—Publisher's Weekly

Book excerpt: In this #1 New York Times bestseller, Ijeoma Oluo offers a revelatory examination of race in America Protests against racial injustice and white supremacy have galvanized millions around the world. The stakes for transformative conversations about race could not be higher. Still, the task ahead seems daunting, and it’s hard to know where to start. How do you tell your boss her jokes are racist? Why did your sister-in-law hang up on you when you had questions about police reform? How do you explain white privilege to your white, privileged friend? In So You Want to Talk About Race, Ijeoma Oluo guides readers of all races through subjects ranging from police brutality and cultural appropriation to the model minority myth in an attempt to make the seemingly impossible possible: honest conversations about race, and about how racism infects every aspect of American life. "Simply put: Ijeoma Oluo is a necessary voice and intellectual for these times, and any time, truth be told." ―Phoebe Robinson, New York Times bestselling author of You Can't Touch My Hair

Download or read book Bitter Crop written by Paul Alexander and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2024-02-13 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revelatory look at the tumultuous life of a jazz legend and American cultural icon In the first biography of Billie Holiday in more than two decades, Paul Alexander—author of heralded lives of Sylvia Plath and J. D. Salinger—gives us an unconventional portrait of arguably America’s most eminent jazz singer. He shrewdly focuses on the last year of her life—with relevant flashbacks to provide context—to evoke and examine the persistent magnificence of Holiday’s artistry when it was supposed to have declined, in the wake of her drug abuse, relationships with violent men, and run-ins with the law. During her lifetime and after her death, Billie Holiday was often depicted as a down-on-her-luck junkie severely lacking in self-esteem. Relying on interviews with people who knew her, and new material unearthed in private collections and institutional archives, Bitter Crop—a reference to the last two words of Strange Fruit, her moving song about lynching—limns Holiday as a powerful, ambitious woman who overcame her flaws to triumph as a vital figure of American popular music.
Book Synopsis [email protected]: TOO HOT FOR URBAN LIT by : Richard Warren Crosson
Download or read book [email protected]: TOO HOT FOR URBAN LIT written by Richard Warren Crosson and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-08-31 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year is 2016 in the mist of the “great recession” hangs like an ominous storm cloud in the backdrop of this story, which is told in hindsight through the blogs of a chick named Isis. In her sometimes salacious narrative, this iTrills.com blogger, has taken her readers back in time when she was a young crazy-sexy-cool ride-or-die type that shamelessly rocked a red flag. She knew more computer codes than a Silicon Valley whiz-kid. Readers of her blog also get a peek into her sizzling hot sexual affair with a devilishly influential guerilla-gansta’ named Soulja: leader of the notorious B.R.M. clique, and founder of the even more influential iTrilla.com. Never mind that Isis has a man that worships her like her goddess name. She’s become a drifting moth attracted to the flame of Soulja ever since she and her boyfriend met him. While still in the hands of the Feds, Soulja evolved into an informed convict disguised as a blogger. Unfortunately for the powers-that-be he is laced with controversial convictions that has inspired millions. Soon after his release into the free world, he covertly used his own social networking site to chop-it-up with other leaders of illicit underground street orgs. With them he devises a “radical” blueprint to destroy every prison plantation in America: hoping to create a slavery revolt just like the legend of his hero Nat Turner. Of course, no plan of this magnitude could ever unravel without a significant glitch.
