In the 55 informative and optimistic pieces in the book, Richard proposes more personalized "smaller caring schools of choice," where the child comes first, where bureaucracy, testing and NCLB are minimized and where a loving school climate and kindness prevail

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An American girl finds her prince in this "fun and dishy" (People) royal romance inspired by Prince William and Kate Middleton. American Bex Porter was never one for fairy tales. Her twin sister Lacey was always the romantic, the one who daydreamed of being a princess. But it's adventure-seeking Bex who goes to Oxford and meets dreamy Nick across the hall - and Bex who finds herself accidentally in love with the heir to the British throne. Nick is wonderful, but he comes with unimaginable baggage: a complicated family, hysterical tabloids tracking his every move, and a public that expected its future king to marry a Brit. On the eve of the most talked-about wedding of the century, Bex looks back on how much she's had to give up for true love... and exactly whose heart she may yet have to break. Praise for The Royal We "Hysterical" -- Entertainment Weekly "Full of love and humor, and delicious in too many ways." -- Emma Straub, New York Times bestselling author "Engrossing and deeply satisfying." -- Jen Doll, author of Save the Date

Book excerpt: THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "A hilarious, tender, and altogether life-affirming gem of a book." --Emily Henry, bestselling author of Beach Read A brilliant and touching romantic comedy about two polar opposites, one adorable dog, and living every day to its fullest. When Vanessa Price quit her job to pursue her dream of traveling the globe, she wasn't expecting to gain millions of YouTube followers who shared her joy of seizing every moment. For her, living each day to its fullest isn't just a motto. Her mother and sister never saw the age of 30, and Vanessa doesn't want to take anything for granted. But after her half sister suddenly leaves Vanessa in custody of her baby daughter, life goes from "daily adventure" to "next-level bad" (now with bonus baby vomit in hair). The last person Vanessa expects to show up offering help is the hot lawyer next door, Adrian Copeland. After all, she barely knows him. No one warned her that he was the Secret Baby Tamer or that she'd be spending a whole lot of time with him and his geriatric Chihuahua. Now she's feeling things she's vowed not to feel. Because the only thing worse than falling for Adrian is finding a little hope for a future she may never see.

Book Synopsis The Only Woman in the Room by : Rita Lakin
Download or read book The Only Woman in the Room written by Rita Lakin and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rita Lakin was a pioneer – a female scriptwriter in the early 1960s when Hollywood television was exclusively male. For years, in creative meetings she was literally “the only woman in the room.” In this breezy but heartfelt remembrance, Lakin takes readers to a long-forgotten time when women were not considered worthy or welcome at the creative table. Widowed with three young children, she talked herself into a secretarial job at Universal Studios in 1962, despite being unable to type or take dictation. With guts, skill, and humor, she rose from secretary to freelancer, to staff writer, to producer, to executive producer and showrunner, meeting hundreds of famous and infamous show biz legends along the way during her long and unexpected career. She introduced many women into the business and was a feminist before she even knew she was one. The general public did not know her name, but Lakin touched the lives of millions of viewers week after week, year after year. The relevance of her personal journey – charming yet occasionally shocking – will be an eye-opener to present-day who take for granted the abundance of female creative talent in today's Hollywood.

Download or read book California Noir written by Howard Lakin and published by Devonbooks. This book was released on 2012-10-01 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CALIFORNIA NOIR is a literary mystery with a Casablanca-mix of cynical danger, droll comedy, and rekindled desire. A tragic hero takes an unwilling and dangerous, yet fiercely romantic, journey into an unexpected heart of darkness. Rick Lang is one of a "secret society" of commitment-challenged friends (divorced, grieving, clueless) who are cleverly lured from an annual carefree and preposterous birthday party game into playing that very game for real and for money, eventually realizing they must win in order to save their own lives. Set in edgy corners of Oakland, San Francisco, and quirky Marin County, Rick and his "family" of six friends find themselves pitted against a billionaire gambling cartel which has the sophistication to use emotional jeopardy with deadly force. When the game turns dangerous, they must be capable of the agility needed to combat their mastermind opponents. Since the devastating plane crash which took his family from him ten years ago, Rick has not allowed himself to love again, or indeed to come alive anywhere, except within the dark confines of his radio station where he hosts a successful national late night show in the lonely hours from 10 to 2, six nights a week. There Rick Lang, the Midnight Rider, is able to mobilize an activist group of over 400,000 Riders, to make real time positive interventions on behalf of those in desolation or despair. Behind the gambling cartel's menacing agenda is a plot to derail him from these good works and to take down a secret benefactor who has equally secret ties to his dead wife. Rick is famous for touting the phrase "no answers here." But once Rick learns his dead wife had a secret life, he finds himself in relentless pursuit of answers and is willing to do anything to get them. Ultimately, authentic truths will only be uncovered when he is able to open his heart to Leah, the woman from his past, his present, and perhaps his future.
