As a boy, Emmanuel hopped to school more than two miles each way, learned to play soccer, left home at age thirteen to provide for his family, and, eventually, became a cyclist. He rode an astonishing four hundred miles across Ghana in 2001, spreading his powerful message: disability is not inability. Today, Emmanuel continues to work on behalf of the disabled. Thompson's lyrical prose and Qualls's bold collage illustrations offer a powerful celebration of triumphing over adversity. Includes an author's note with more information about Emmanuel's charity.

Book Synopsis Actualizing the total childs' dream through the use of examination by : ODUFOWOKAN ADESINA
Download or read book Actualizing the total childs' dream through the use of examination written by ODUFOWOKAN ADESINA and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2012-03-06 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Concept of the “Total Child” is an all-encompassing concept that cut across all spheres of child development from birth till adolescent up to adulthood. Identifying a total child has the interplay of many factors ranging from behavior, attitude, values, morals, relationship and lots more. However, in school all the aforementioned factors come into play but with much emphasis on performance in tests and examinations. The believe of teachers within the school system is that a total child always lead the cohorts of his mates in class and school. An extension of these even, is expected in school extra curricula activities in game plays and sports. From the foregoing, this paper looks into the administration of school system with a view of making and optimizing the number of total children in Nigeria and World-over, improving quality of education and our school system. The paper also explores factors militating against the making of many total children. Suggestions are proffered with a view to improving the quality of ordinary children toward becoming total in the society.

Book Synopsis In the Dream House by : Carmen Maria Machado
Download or read book In the Dream House written by Carmen Maria Machado and published by Graywolf Press. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revolutionary memoir about domestic abuse by the award-winning author of Her Body and Other Parties In the Dream House is Carmen Maria Machado’s engrossing and wildly innovative account of a relationship gone bad, and a bold dissection of the mechanisms and cultural representations of psychological abuse. Tracing the full arc of a harrowing relationship with a charismatic but volatile woman, Machado struggles to make sense of how what happened to her shaped the person she was becoming. And it’s that struggle that gives the book its original structure: each chapter is driven by its own narrative trope—the haunted house, erotica, the bildungsroman—through which Machado holds the events up to the light and examines them from different angles. She looks back at her religious adolescence, unpacks the stereotype of lesbian relationships as safe and utopian, and widens the view with essayistic explorations of the history and reality of abuse in queer relationships. Machado’s dire narrative is leavened with her characteristic wit, playfulness, and openness to inquiry. She casts a critical eye over legal proceedings, fairy tales, Star Trek, and Disney villains, as well as iconic works of film and fiction. The result is a wrenching, riveting book that explodes our ideas about what a memoir can do and be.
Book Synopsis Children’s Dreaming and the Development of Consciousness by : David Foulkes
Download or read book Children’s Dreaming and the Development of Consciousness written by David Foulkes and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-01 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Foulkes is one of the international leaders in the empirical study of children’s dreaming, and a pioneer of sleep laboratory research with children. In this book, which distills a lifetime of study, Foulkes shows that dreaming as we normally understand it—active stories in which the dreamer is an actor—appears relatively late in childhood. This true dreaming begins between the ages of 7 and 9. He argues that this late development of dreaming suggests an equally late development of waking reflective self-awareness. Foulkes offers a spirited defense of the independence of the psychological realm, and the legitimacy of studying it without either psychoanalytic over-interpretation or neurophysiological reductionism.
Book Synopsis Sharing the Burden of Stories from the Tutsi Genocide by : Anna-Marie de Beer
Download or read book Sharing the Burden of Stories from the Tutsi Genocide written by Anna-Marie de Beer and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-04-23 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with literary representations of the genocide of the Tutsis in Rwanda. The focus is a transnational, polyphonic writing project entitled ‘Rwanda: écrire par devoir de mémoire’ (Rwanda: Writing by Duty of Memory), undertaken in 1998 by a group of nine African authors. This work emphasizes the Afropolitan cultural frame in which the texts were conceived and written. Instead of using Western and Eurocentric tropes, this volume looks at a so-called ‘minority trauma’: an African conflict situated in a collectivist society and written about by writers from African origin. This approach enables a more situated study, in which it becomes possible to draw out the local notions of ubuntu, oral testimonies, mourning traditions, healing and storytelling strategies, and the presence of the ‘invisible’. As these texts are written in French and to date not all of them have been translated into English, most academic research has been done in French. This book thus assists in connecting English-speaking readers not only to a set of texts written in French with significant literary and cultural value, but also to francophone trauma studies research.
