For 10-year-old Susan and her classmates, the three space-age coats hanging in the window of the Children's Shop were the most beautiful things to ever arrive in their remote little mining town. Susan desperately wishes for the most beautiful of the three in psychedelic blue. But when her dream actually comes true, the scrappy little tomboy soon learns the hard way that there can be serious disadvantages to wearing the most recognizable coat in town! First, the new blue coat turns one of her snooty classmates green with envy - and while it's sticks and stones that break your bones, the girl's words still hurt. But cruel words are nothing compared to the knee-buckling terror of being singled out by a much older high school bully who threatens to deliver a pounding that Susan will never forget. Susan learns that when you're surrounded by fear, you have to find creative solutions and eventually confront the danger. When Susan is finally forced to face her nemesis, she learns that standing out is sometimes the first step to really fitting in. The Story of the Blue Fur Coat is the first in the Endersubee Misadventures by Susan Enderby, a heartwarming and nostalgic tale about navigating childhood in a unique little mining town, the struggles of dealing with a bully, and having no one to turn to, and embracing who you really are. Fun and fast-paced, this is the perfect read for kids aged 10-12.

Download or read book Fur written by Jonathan Faiers and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2020 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking, informative, and thought-provoking exploration of fur's fashionable and controversial history The first and only book of its kind, Fur: A Sensitive History looks at the impact of fur on society, politics, and, of course, fashion. This material has a long, complex, and rich history, culminating in recent and ongoing anti-fur debates. Jonathan Faiers discusses how fur--long praised for its warmth, softness, and connotation of status--became so controversial, at the center of campaigns against animal cruelty and the movement toward ethical fashion. At the same time, fake fur now faces a backlash of its own, given the environmental impact of its manufacture and its links to fast fashion. Divided into five sections--dedicated to hair, pelt, coat, skin, and fleece--the book surveys not only the politics of fur but also its centrality to western fashion, the tactile pleasure it gives, and its use in literature, art, and film. This thoughtfully reasoned, eloquently written, and spectacularly illustrated examination of fur is both timely and essential, filling a gap in fashion scholarship and appealing to a broad audience.

Tara's prayers appear to have been answered when she miraculously falls into the arms of Travis Coleman - the famed, silver-tongued sex demon.

However, Tara's fairy-tale soon spirals out of control when Travis inexplicably ceases all contact with her. Distraught and desperately stumbling from one crisis to another, Tara ultimately loses her mind, her dignity and - shamefully - her Knickers.

Book Synopsis The Man Who Never Stopped Sleeping by : Aharon Appelfeld
Download or read book The Man Who Never Stopped Sleeping written by Aharon Appelfeld and published by Schocken. This book was released on 2017-01-31 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young holocaust survivor tries to create a new life in the newly established state of Israel. Erwin doesn’t remember much about his journey across Europe when the war ended because he spent most of it asleep, carried by other survivors as they emerged from their hiding places or were liberated from the camps and made their way to Naples, where they filled refugee camps and wondered what was to become of them. Erwin becomes part of a group of boys being rigorously trained both physically and mentally by an emissary from Palestine for life in their new home. When he and his fellow clandestine immigrants are released by British authorities from their detention camp near Haifa, they are assigned to a kibbutz, where they learn how to tend the land and speak their new language. But a part of Erwin clings to the past—to memories of his parents, his mother tongue, the Ukrainian city where he was born—and he knows that despite what he is being told, who he was is just as important as who he is becoming. When he is wounded in an engagement with snipers, Erwin spends months trying to regain the use of his legs. As he exercises his body, he exercises his mind as well, copying passages from the Bible in his newly acquired Hebrew and working up the courage to create his own texts in this language both old and new, hoping to succeed as a writer where his beloved, tormented father had failed. With the support of his friends and the encouragement of his mother (who visits him in his dreams), Erwin takes his first tentative steps with his crutches—and with his pen. Once again, Aharon Appelfeld mines personal experience to create dazzling, masterly fiction with a universal resonance.
