Download or read book Somebody Told Me written by Rick Bragg and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2001-08-28 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With his bestselling All Over but the Shoutin', Rick Bragg gave us memorable stories of his own childhood. Here he offers the best of his work as a Pulitzer-Prize winning journalist writing the remarkable stories of others. For twenty years, Bragg has focused his efforts on the common man. So while some of these stories are about people whose names we know—such as Susan Smith, the South Carolina mother who drowned her two sons—most are people whose names we've never heard, people who have survived tornadoes and swamps, racism and bombs. In incisive, unadorned prose that is nonetheless strikingly beautiful, these pieces rise above journalism to become literature and show the triumph of the human spirit.

Book excerpt: Someone Should Have Told Me is a book for adults to share with children. Through the use of colourful, fun illustrations and simple statements prefaced by "Someone should have told me...," the book helps adults talk to children about potential online dangers, such as seeing pornography, sexting and grooming by online predators. The book also discusses face-to-face grooming and children exposing other children to pornography. There are discussion questions to see if children have understood the key concepts, and additional information to support adults in their explanations of the potential dangers covered in the book. There is also information for adults on what to do if a child has seen pornography and what to do if a child discloses they have been abused. These are difficult conversations to have with children, but it is extremely important children are aware of these potential dangers and know what to do to enhance their own safety. Hopefully this book will help you have these conversations with the children in your life in a fun, non-confronting way.

One is always hurting or being hurt by another, questioning even when giving answers. Whether we want to believe it or not, all experience life in ways that leave them at some point scratching their head and saying, what happened and why me? The author used to think that some people were exempt from certain parts of life, and until she found out that it’s all in the way you play this game called life, for some it’s easy to forget their part in the games people play. Watch your opponents closely; they’re closer than they appear.

Book excerpt: 'This book should be required reading for anyone thinking of having a baby, or even anyone who knows someone who is thinking of having a baby' Scotland on Sunday 'Fascinating and honest' Mumsnet 'Like talking to a friend' Observer Winner of the Ted Hughes Award for New Work in Poetry There were many things that Hollie McNish didn't know before she was pregnant. How her family and friends would react; that Mr Whippy would be off the menu; how quickly ice can melt on a stomach. These were on top of the many other things she didn't know about babies: how to stand while holding one; how to do a poetry gig with your baby as a member of the audience; how drum'n'bass can make a great lullaby. And that's before you even start on toddlers. But Hollie learned. And she's still learning, slowly. Nobody Told Me is a collection of poems and stories; Hollie's thoughts on raising a child in modern Britain, of trying to become a parent in modern Britain, of sex, commercialism, feeding, gender and of finding secret places to scream once in a while.

Despite her confusion and fear, Hannah Hall knows exactly to whom the note refers—Owen’s sixteen-year-old daughter, Bailey. Bailey, who lost her mother tragically as a child. Bailey, who wants absolutely nothing to do with her new stepmother. As Hannah’s increasingly desperate calls to Owen go unanswered, as the FBI arrests Owen’s boss, as a US marshal and federal agents arrive at her Sausalito home unannounced, Hannah quickly realizes her husband isn’t who he said he was.

With its breakneck pacing, dizzying plot twists, and evocative family drama, The Last Thing He Told Me is a “page-turning, exhilarating, and unforgettable” (PopSugar) suspense novel.
