Book excerpt: "It has snowed overnight, and the snow is PERFECT--for snowmen, for forts, for a whole school coming together to make the greatest snow structure ever! Barbara Reid takes on a quintessentially Canadian topic in her famous Plasticine style--with an exciting new twist! Even though a snow day isn't declared, first-grader Scott and fourth-grader Jim are looking forward to playing in the snow at recess and lunch. They daydream the morning away, making plans: Jim doodles snowmen; Scott plans the Totally Massive Indestructible Snow Fortress Of Doom. Things don't turn out quite as planned, but by the end of the day the whole school has pitched in to make something even better, and Jim and Scott, formerly strangers, have become friends. Barbara blends the schoolyard of her own Toronto childhood with the ones she visits today into a seamless, timeless Canadian tale that will transport every reader to his or her own favourite snowy day. Barbara Reid begins with her trademark Plasticine art and adds bright watercolour spots in a sequential panel style to add to the story. The combination takes Barbara's work to the next level--not a word or an image out of place, a fun, mixed-media delight that Canadian kids and adults will enjoy on many levels."--

Book excerpt: It's December 24th, and the old farmer settles down for a winter's nap, wondering how Christmas can come when there is no snow! In his dream he imagines a snowstorm covering him and his animals—named One, Two, Three, Four and Five—in a snowy blanket. But when the farmer awakens, he finds that it has really snowed outside, and now he remembers something! Putting on his red suit, he goes outside and places gifts under the tree for his animals, bringing holiday cheer to all.

Book Synopsis The Deadline Effect by : Christopher Cox
Download or read book The Deadline Effect written by Christopher Cox and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-07-12 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the tradition of Charles Duhigg’s The Power of Habit, a wise and fascinating book that shows us how “we can make deadlines work for us instead of the other way around” (The Wall Street Journal). Perfectionists and procrastinators alike agree—it’s natural to dread a deadline. Whether you are completing a masterpiece or just checking off an overwhelming to-do list, the ticking clock signals despair. Christopher Cox knows the panic of the looming deadline all too well—as a magazine editor, he has spent years overseeing writers and journalists who couldn’t meet a deadline to save their lives. After putting in a few too many late nights in the newsroom, he became determined to learn the secret of managing deadlines. He set off to observe nine different organizations as they approached a high-pressure deadline. Along the way, Cox made an even greater discovery: these experts didn’t just meet their big deadlines—they became more focused, productive, and creative in the process. An entertaining blend of “behavioral science, psychological theory, and academic studies with compelling storytelling and descriptive case studies” (Financial Times), The Deadline Effect reveals the time-management strategies these teams used to guarantee success while staying on schedule: a restaurant opening for the first time, a ski resort covering an entire mountain in snow, a farm growing enough lilies in time for Easter, and more. Cox explains how to use deadlines to our advantage, the dynamics of teams and customers, and techniques for using deadlines to make better, more effective decisions.

Book Synopsis The Fairest One of All by : J.B. Kaufman
Download or read book The Fairest One of All written by J.B. Kaufman and published by Weldon Owen. This book was released on 2012-10-16 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2012 Disney celebrated the 75th anniversary of the Snow White movie, a beloved classic and an important milestone in film history. This book, created with the Walt Disney Family Foundation, run by Walt’s daughter, is an exploration of the making of the film that includes never-before-published facts and art. The Fairest One of All won the award for Best Animation Book at the 2012 A113Animation Awards. Walt Disney’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was first shown to a theatrical audience in December 1937 and brought overwhelming, joyous applause from a house full of hardened film-industry professionals. In subsequent months it would open around the world, happily acclaimed by audiences and critics everywhere as one of the best films of the year, if not the decade. From today’s perspective, its stature is even greater—named as one of the best movies of all time by the American Film Institute, and still beloved by children and adults around the world, Snow White can be seen as the flowering of an all-too-brief Golden Age of animation as well as a fascinating document of its time. Such a level of artistic achievement doesn’t happen by accident. Walt Disney and a staff of exceptionally talented artists labored over Snow White for four years, endlessly working and reworking their scenes to achieve an ever higher standard. The result, as we know, was magnificent and game-changing for the Disney Studios and, indeed, for the art of animation itself. This book is the first to reconstruct that process in exacting detail, with the loving attention it deserves from an internationally noted film scholar. Author J.B. Kaufman spent years researching the film’s history, interviewing participants, and studying the marvelous archival art that appears in these pages. The result is a work that can be appreciated equally as a piece of film history and as a collectable art book, a joy for anyone who loves film, animation, and the magical world that Walt Disney created.

Download or read book Snow Waste written by Michael Bemis and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2003-02-07 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paralleling the modern day struggle between corporate America and the environmental movement, which is increasingly becoming violent, Snow Waste demystifies a ski resort's future success and a paper mill's resolve to survive by exacerbating perennial land and water use issues. From three viewpoints-the resort's conscientious but naïve chief of snowmaking, its unscrupulous owner, and an ethical whistle blower environmentalist-Snow Waste tells a story of greed, personal motivation, and heroic determination to do, at all cost, what is right. Set deep in the Western Mountains of Maine, Snow Waste demonstrates the strong force that community plays in our survival and it probes deeply into the lives of its characters, proving that one's ability to sink or swim is often rooted in their past. In a straightforward yet enthralling story, Snow Waste chronicles the hardships of everyday life and the triumphs that are sometimes unspoken and unseen. The memorable characters and their unpretentious escapades that are brought to life on the pages of Snow Waste are destined to leave an indelible mark in the minds and hearts of its readers.

Book Synopsis Rules for the Southern Rulebreaker by : Katherine Snow Smith
Download or read book Rules for the Southern Rulebreaker written by Katherine Snow Smith and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-07-21 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Southern women are inundated with rules starting early—from always wearing sensible shoes to never talking about death to the dying, and certainly not relying on song lyrics for marriage therapy. Nevertheless, Katherine Snow Smith keeps doing things like falling off her high heels onto President Barack Obama, gaining dubious status as the middle school “lice mom,” and finding confirmation in the lyrics of Miranda Lambert after her twenty-four-year marriage ends. Somehow, despite never meaning to defy Southern expectations for parenting, marriage, work, and friendship, Smith has found herself doing just that for over four decades. Luckily for everyone, the outcome of these “broken rules” is this collection of refreshing stories, filled with vulnerability, humor, and insight, sharing how she received lifelong advice from a sixth-grade correspondence with an Oscar-winning actress, convinced a terminally ill friend to write good-bye letters, and won the mother of all “don’t give up” lectures by finishing a road race last (as the pizza boxes were thrown away). Rules for the Southern Rule Breaker will resonate with every woman, southern or not, who has a tendency to wander down the hazy side roads and realizes the rewards that come from listening to the pull in one’s heart over the voice in one’s head.

Download or read book Whiter Than Snow written by Sandra Dallas and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2011-03-01 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From The New York Times bestselling author of Prayers for Sale comes the moving and powerful story of a small town after a devastating avalanche, and the life changing effects it has on the people who live there Whiter Than Snow opens in 1920, on a spring afternoon in Swandyke, a small town near Colorado's Tenmile Range. Just moments after four o'clock, a large split of snow separates from Jubilee Mountain high above the tiny hamlet and hurtles down the rocky slope, enveloping everything in its path including nine young children who are walking home from school. But only four children survive. Whiter Than Snow takes you into the lives of each of these families: There's Lucy and Dolly Patch—two sisters, long estranged by a shocking betrayal. Joe Cobb, Swandyke's only black resident, whose love for his daughter Jane forces him to flee Alabama. There's Grace Foote, who hides secrets and scandal that belies her genteel façade. And Minder Evans, a civil war veteran who considers his cowardice his greatest sin. Finally, there's Essie Snowball, born Esther Schnable to conservative Jewish parents, but who now works as a prostitute and hides her child's parentage from all the world. Ultimately, each story serves as an allegory to the greater theme of the novel by echoing that fate, chance, and perhaps even divine providence, are all woven into the fabric of everyday life. And it's through each character's defining moment in his or her past that the reader understands how each child has become its parent's purpose for living. In the end, it's a novel of forgiveness, redemption, survival, faith and family.
