Download or read book Soccer Grannies written by Jean Duffy and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2023-05-10 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspirational story of an amazing group of soccer-playing South African grannies. In rural South Africa, beloved humanitarian “Mama Beka” defied social convention and started a soccer team for the women in her community. The Soccer Grannies, as they came to be known, won over their families and villages who at first rejected the idea of older women playing soccer, and that single team quickly grew into dozens. Soon, the strength, tenacity, and pure joy of the Soccer Grannies had captured the attention of the world. In Soccer Grannies: The South African Women Who Inspire the World, Jean Duffy, a soccer-playing mom herself, recounts how she and her team set to work to bring the Soccer Grannies to the U.S. after hearing their incredible story. Despite many obstacles that stand in their way, the Soccer Grannies finally arrive, and Jean describes the wonderful friendships and cultural exchanges that follow. But Soccer Grannies tells more than just the physical journey of the South African women; it also details the Grannies’ personal journeys, sharing poignant insights into the realities of women living in South Africa. Life beyond the pitch has not been easy for the Grannies. They have persevered through apartheid, rampant poverty and unemployment, the loss of children to AIDS, domestic abuse, and more. But with the friendship and support of their fellow Soccer Grannies, these women face life’s challenges with dignity, humor, and hope. Their stories show to the world the power of sport and its unique ability to bring people and cultures together.

Download or read book Chapin’s World written by J. G. Chapin and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-08-26 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chapin’s World is purely a figment of the author’s warped imagination, so please don’t report him to the authorities because there is nothing that can be done. He was born thinking like this. And, it was inevitable that his mind would be unleashed upon an unsuspecting public. Chapin’s World, subtitled A Mid Amid is a book-of-life as seen through the green, ‘mid-life’ eyes of a member of a highly exploited (as of yet, unentitled) minority - redheads! It is a collection of humorous short stories of the author’s early life, family camping-trip shenanigans, vacation pranks and mishaps, and how he grew to be ‘mid’ in America’s Heartland. His light-hearted style allows the reader a chance to experience unpleasant circumstances with humor, and to tag along as he turns the most simple of situations into full-blown calamities. Chapin’s narrative of his childhood reads like a tale by a modern day Samuel Clemens. The stories progress randomly through his life to include ‘mid-- with -- kid.’ Chapin’s World will drag you along with Chapin, his family, and a few ‘less-than role model’ friends into, but not out of ‘mid-life.’ the author is determined to find your funny bone even if he has to use a chainsaw. A Mid Amid contains twenty-seven mildly amusing, yet wildly outrageous tales by the ‘Master of Personal Disaster.’ In case you are unaware of Chapin’s writing style, he has used the formula of mixing equal, half-portions of wit and narrative. Chapin has now become quite distinguished for his ‘half-wit’ humor. But, such is Chapin’s World. If you or a loved one is struggling through the ‘mid-life’ crisis (or if you just have the strange urge to help a confessed liar succeed) then Chapin’s World - A Mid Amid is surely required reading.

Book Synopsis Acquisition and Variation in World Englishes by : Mirjam Schmalz
Download or read book Acquisition and Variation in World Englishes written by Mirjam Schmalz and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-12-04 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first of its kind to provide an integrative look at World Englishes, (second) language acquisition, and sociolinguistics in a variety of contexts of English around the globe with a focus on the language of children and adolescents. It thus aims to bridge the paradigm gaps that have been identified between these approaches but have rarely been explored in greater detail. The range of topics includes the areas of first and second language acquisition; sociolinguistic variation and awareness; language use and choice; family language policies; language attitudes and perception; modelling children’s and adolescents’ language in World Englishes; the role of child language acquisition in processes of language change; as well as methodologies of eliciting speech and writing from children and adolescents. The book combines qualitative and quantitative approaches and draws on psycholinguistic, corpus-linguistic, and ethnographic methodologies. What unites the contributions to the volume is that they all address the theoretical implications that a joint approach between World Englishes, sociolinguistics, and language acquisition has, i.e. why it is fruitful and how it can contribute to a deeper understanding of the different research paradigms.
