Book Synopsis Love and the Rocking Chair by : Diane Dillon
Download or read book Love and the Rocking Chair written by Diane Dillon and published by Scholastic Inc.. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two-time Caldecott Medalists Leo and Diane Dillon celebrate the love we feel for our children in this touching, multi-generational story about the lasting power of family. Simple words and colorful paintings tell the warm, engaging story of new parents who buy a rocking chair when they are expecting a baby. Bright, sunny illustrations show the precious intimacy between parents and their children; the new mother glows with affection, and the new father reads aloud to their young son. Time passes, and the boy grows up; the beloved rocker is moved to the attic and gathers dust. But when the boy becomes a man, the cycle begins anew. He and his wife have a baby girl, and the rocking chair is needed again. Legendary artists Leo and Diane Dillon are two of the greatest illustrators of our time. This is their final collaboration, inspired by their own rocking chair. It is a tender tribute to the enduring power of family love-passed from generation to generation. Here is a book for all ages to cherish. It serves as a loving reminder of those who have gone before us-and those who are still to come.
Download or read book Rocking Chair Tales written by John Smith and published by Howard Books. This book was released on 2013-12-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Let me tell you a story." What sentence draws us in with more magnetism? In his book, Rocking Chair Tales, author John William Smith seeks to draw in readers with a collection of short stories intended to light up the imagination and spark conversation. Stories short enough to be read aloud will cause the reader to recall fond memories and perhaps share his or her own stories. Smith's tales, mostly drawn from his childhood, are true, yet they serve as parables because "they give truth flavor by attaching names, faces, and geographical locations to abstract notions and emotional realities." His recollections serve as a powerful tool to recapture those magical moments which lay hidden within our cluttered lives.

Book Synopsis The First Century by : Martha Ann Miller
Download or read book The First Century written by Martha Ann Miller and published by . This book was released on 2012-11-30 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Martha Ann Miller may never be ready for the rocking chair, but she has been on the rocking horse of life for 101 years, and her account of the ups and downs will take you on an adventuresome, fulfilling ride from the fields of southern Indiana near the Ohio River to the heights of political activism next to the Potomac River. A shy Hoosier farm girl and an excellent baker at a young age, she parlayed her talent into a free four-year scholarship to college. She credits that Depression Era boost to her education as the fulcrum that lifted her high in later life. She worked tirelessly and unsung for better education for children in her growing community of Arlington, Virginia, and today those schools are among the best in the nation. As a teacher herself, she defied the “Massive Resistance” in the Commonwealth of Virginia to Supreme Court-decreed public school integration by welcoming two black students to her junior-high classroom when other teachers had refused, and the principal had resisted. Oh, and she did a lot of other valuable and interesting things on the way to celebrating her centenary. She is tenacious, she is not letting go, and she hopes you take to heart her lessons as you read this chronicle of her exceptional life.

Book Synopsis Now I Sit Me Down by : Witold Rybczynski
Download or read book Now I Sit Me Down written by Witold Rybczynski and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2016-08-23 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered where rocking chairs came from, or why cheap plastic chairs are suddenly everywhere? In Now I Sit Me Down, the distinguished architect and writer Witold Rybczynski chronicles the history of the chair from the folding stools of pharaonic Egypt to the ubiquitous stackable monobloc chairs of today. He tells the stories of the inventor of the bentwood chair, Michael Thonet, and of the creators of the first molded-plywood chair, Charles and Ray Eames. He reveals the history of chairs to be a social history--of different ways of sitting, of changing manners and attitudes, and of varying tastes. The history of chairs is the history of who we are. We learn how the ancient Chinese switched from sitting on the floor to sitting in a chair, and how the iconic chair of Middle America--the Barcalounger--traces its roots back to the Bauhaus. Rybczynski weaves a rich tapestry that draws on art and design history, personal experience, and historical accounts. And he pairs these stories with his own delightful hand-drawn illustrations: colonial rockers and English cabrioles, languorous chaise longues, and no-nonsense ergonomic task chairs--they're all here. The famous Danish furniture designer Hans Wegner once remarked, "A chair is only finished when someone sits in it." As Rybczynski tells it, the way we choose to sit and what we choose to sit on speak volumes about our values, our tastes, and the things we hold dear.
