Book Synopsis Like One of the Family by : Alice Childress
Download or read book Like One of the Family written by Alice Childress and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2017-01-24 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recommended by Entertainment Weekly The hilarious, uncompromising novel about African American domestic workers—from a trailblazer in Black women’s literature and now featuring a foreword by Roxane Gay First published in Paul Robeson’s newspaper, Freedom, and composed of a series of conversations between Mildred, a black domestic, and her friend Marge, Like One of the Family is a wry, incisive portrait of working women in Harlem in the 1950s. Rippling with satire and humor, Mildred’s outspoken accounts vividly capture her white employers’ complacency and condescension—and their startled reactions to a maid who speaks her mind and refuses to exchange dignity for pay. Upon publication the book sparked a critique of working conditions, laying the groundwork for the contemporary domestic worker movement. Although she was critically praised, Childress’s uncompromising politics and unflinching depictions of racism, classism, and sexism relegated her to the fringe of American literature. Like One of the Family has been long overlooked, but this new edition, featuring a foreword by best-selling author Roxane Gay, will introduce Childress to a new generation.

They just came here to escape their celebrity--invited guests, living out their lives in total privacy, all expenses paid, every need fulfilled. To Superman, it is heaven on earth.

Giggles the ladybug, Squiggles the caterpillar and Zapp the bee are not only entertaining but they engage and ask questions and give your child interesting facts. As parents ourselves we couldn't find a coloring book for young children that we were completely happy with so we decided to create our own. We then conducted research with over 500 fellow parents who helped shape the book you can purchase today. Welcome to the magical world of The Learning Bugs where kids play and have fun while learning at the same time. This will help them throughout their life as they build the habit of being inquisitive and asking questions. Why Buy This Book? Talented artists have hand-drawn unique illustrations that are beautiful but simple, cute and fun. Good value - we made sure to have plenty of pages (over 100). Illustrations are on one side only so you can tear them out to frame and keep. No issues with markers bleeding through the page and ruining an image underneath. Thick black lines for toddlers to try keep within the lines. Each page is a large 8.5 inches by 11 inches and printed on bright white paper. A book for toddlers but with some more advanced elements so the book can be kept for years. Your child will likely treasure this book for years to come. Our fun characters, the Learning Bugs, engage your child while being educational. Helps teach your kids that learning is enjoyable and not a chore. This book will help start to prepare them for school. Teaches the alphabet, they learn the letters and words beginning with that letter. We also have games where they can spot things in the drawing. We also have educational facts about the objects in the lovely drawings. Another game is how many things can you spot - to help with counting. This early learning activity book is aimed at boys and girls aged from 2 to 4 years old (especially toddlers, preschoolers, pre-k and kindergarten kids) but it is suitable for any child up to 6 who loves coloring. We have gone 'above and beyond' to create something special which we are very proud of. This lovingly created ABC coloring book is one you can come back to time and time again.

Download or read book A Very Wide River written by Asa Childress and published by Meaningful Books. This book was released on 2022-03-24 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CHILDREN WILL LEARN THE WONDERFUL QUALITIES OF LOVE AND WISDOM (THROUGH AN ENJOYABLE STORY)! A little girl, Amelia, hopes to help the hungry children on the other side of a (Very Wide) river. When her plan comes crashing down, she soon finds that a far greater plan was unfolding all along! And in losing her highest ambition, she gained what she never thought possible. A POSITIVE AND INSPIRING STORY WITH CLEAR MORAL LESSONS. (*SPOILER ALERT*) Children will learn to . . . SEE THE BEST IN OTHERS: Though one crocodile, Ray, is gravely misunderstood, his kind heart and good intentions eventually come to light! Children learn the value of seeing the best in people around them. HELP THOSE IN NEED: Children are inspired (by Amelia's loving example) to care for those in need as they grow up. This is a great opportunity to teach your child about poverty and the value of kindness. MAKE GOOD DECISIONS: The wiser crocodile, rather than simply seeing bright red apples, sees the tiny shiny seeds within. This leads to long-lasting change! Children are encouraged to think ahead and make good decisions as they grow up. KEEP HOPE NO MATTER WHAT: Children will be certain (just like Amelia) that all hope is lost, just before they realise it was only waiting to be found! This will encourage their hearts to never give up and always live in the light of hope. WHAT SETS THIS BOOK APART? This fun and inspiring fable-like story carries compelling moral lessons. This could lead to some excellent discussions on why some children live in poverty or how we can best care for those in need. READING AGE: 4-10 year olds WRITTEN BY: Asa Childress BEAUTIFULLY ILLUSTRATED BY: Alland Wijaya DEDICATED TO: My nieces Sophie and Ella, nephew Josh and, of course, you!
