Books and published materials about local history are scarce and hard to obtain for study purposes. Our Committee started to write brief monographs to give the students and teachers some information about the people for whom our schools are named and about the Indians who lived in this area. From that small beginning this book developed.

Download or read book Snow in August written by Pete Hamill and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2009-10-31 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deeply affecting and wonderfully evocative of old New York, Snow in August is a brilliant fable for our time and all time -- and another triumph for Pete Hamill. Brooklyn, 1947. The war veterans have come home. Jackie Robinson is about to become a Dodger. And in one close-knit working-class neighborhood, an eleven-year-old Irish Catholic boy named Michael Devlin has just made friends with a lonely rabbi from Prague. Snow in August is the story of that unlikely friendship -- and of how the neighborhood reacts to it. For Michael, the rabbi opens a window to ancient learning and lore that rival anything in Captain Marvel. For the rabbi, Michael illuminates the everyday mysteries of America, including the strange language of baseball. But like their hero Jackie Robinson, neither can entirely escape from the swirling prejudices of the time. Terrorized by a local gang of anti-Semitic Irish toughs, Michael and the rabbi are caught in an escalating spiral of hate for which there's only one way out -- a miracle....
Download or read book Kevin the Turkey written by Pamela Hall and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-20 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This illustrated children's book is based on the true story of a wild turkey who wandered into the town of Wethersfield, Connecticut in August of 2017 and who residents and tourists alike nicknamed Kevin. He migrated from one side of Old Wethersfield to another, and for several months paraded around the main intersection of the town's historic district. It is the largest historic district in the state. Kevin must have been looking for a mate, because he was constantly attracted to his own image reflecting in both the shiny wheels of trucks and cars, as well as reflecting his own image in glass windows of both vehicles and buildings. He was a source of frustration for some people, but most folks learned to be patient. He came to be loved by many people, both children as well as adults. He was photographed constantly, a Facebook page was created for him, and people even put out signs saying things like "Vote Kevin for Mayor" and the slogan "Eat more fish." He was eventually removed by the State of CT's Wildlife Management for the bird's own safety, before Thanksgiving of 2017. This was because he was nearly killed by a town's snowplow during an early snowstorm in November and close calls with other large vehicles as he began to wander occasionally past the Department of Motor Vehicles and towards the busy Silas Deane Highway. Kevin the Turkey, both the actual bird as well as our children's book, serve as an inspiration to both children and adults to learn to share the road, be patient, and appreciate the wildlife here in beautiful New England. Children can learn from this story and their parents about the importance of sharing, being thankful, and respecting wildlife, along with other life lessons. This book fills a huge void in the children's literature, for there are few if any inspirational, illustrated books tied to the special messages all kinds of people of all ages can learn based around the Thanksgiving holiday.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sixteen-year-old Kit Tyler is marked by suspicion and disapproval from the moment she arrives on the unfamiliar shores of colonial Connecticut in 1687. Alone and desperate, she has been forced to leave her beloved home on the island of Barbados and join a family she has never met. Torn between her quest for belonging and her desire to be true to herself, Kit struggles to survive in a hostile place. Just when it seems she must give up, she finds a kindred spirit. But Kit's friendship with Hannah Tupper, believed by the colonists to be a witch, proves more taboo than she could have imagined and ultimately forces Kit to choose between her heart and her duty. Elizabeth George Speare won the 1959 Newbery Medal for this portrayal of a heroine whom readers will admire for her unwavering sense of truth as well as her infinite capacity to love.
