ETHEL IS 10 YEARS OLD in 1901 when her family’s life changed forever. Suddenly, Father is not only a famous cowboy, war hero, and politician, but also President Theodore Roosevelt, leader of the United States—and Ethel has a new place to call home. The White House is older and stuffier than Ethel imagined, but there’s never a dull moment with her adventurous family around. Ethel would love to spend every day following Father on horseback rides and scrambles through neighboring Rock Creek Park. Instead, Ethel has to stay at boarding school during the week, where nothing she does feels right and none of the girls seem to like her. Ethel’s parents keep telling her to keep her chin up and be patient, but it’s not easy being the president’s daughter. Ethel wishes she could be as courageous as father and make her family proud. When her fashionable older sister arrives home, Ethel feels new hope. Sister knows the secret of being brave and making friends, and she’s willing to share it. All Ethel needs to do is take one outrageous dare. "[Bradley] makes Ethel a vivid and engaging presence and...[this novel is] a fascinating look at an intriguing world."-Kirkus Reviews "A fascinating story."-Booklist "Loaded with historical details...the novel rings true and the people come to life."-SLJ "Fascinating glimpses of pre-World War I Washington and one of the liveliest families to ever occupy the White House."-The Bulletin
Download or read book Yiddish Yoga written by Lisa Grunberger and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-08-21 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meet Ruthie: a recently widowed New York City Jewish grandmother who doesn't necessarily come to yoga with the most open of minds. But when her granddaughter Stephanie gives her a year of yoga classes as a gift ("I think it will help you grieve, Bubby"), she doesn't want to risk offending her. At first, Ruthie is skeptical of yoga and its promise of renewal, healing, and transformation ("You know what's wrong with yoga? They haven't mastered the art of kvetching!"). She can't resist poking fun at some of the new words and rituals she encounters, translating the exotic language of Yoga into the more familiar idiom of her native Yiddish culture. As Ruthie's journey progresses from week to week, she forges new paths, new postures, and unexpected friendships, slowly overcoming her grief. Yiddish Yoga is a poignant, witty, and human story of love in its many expressions—between grandmother and granddaughter, between an older woman and her younger yoga teacher, between a widow and her beloved husband of fifty years. As Ruthie learns to let go of the past without forgetting, she shows us how to embrace the present with new vigor, strength, and courage—and, above all, makes us laugh.

Book excerpt: Winner of the 2018 Pura Belpre Award! “A book for anyone mending from childhood wounds.”—Sandra Cisneros, author of The House on Mango Street In this unforgettable multicultural coming-of-age narrative—based on the author’s childhood in the 1960s—a young Cuban-Jewish immigrant girl is adjusting to her new life in New York City when her American dream is suddenly derailed. Ruthie’s plight will intrigue readers, and her powerful story of strength and resilience, full of color, light, and poignancy, will stay with them for a long time. Ruthie Mizrahi and her family recently emigrated from Castro’s Cuba to New York City. Just when she’s finally beginning to gain confidence in her mastery of English—and enjoying her reign as her neighborhood’s hopscotch queen—a horrific car accident leaves her in a body cast and confined her to her bed for a long recovery. As Ruthie’s world shrinks because of her inability to move, her powers of observation and her heart grow larger and she comes to understand how fragile life is, how vulnerable we all are as human beings, and how friends, neighbors, and the power of the arts can sweeten even the worst of times.

Download or read book Ruthie Deeply written by Vincent Palmieri and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-19 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cold. Hunger. Abandonment. Strong feelings that no adult should be ever exposed to, let alone a four-month-old infant. The world that Ruth was born into in December of 1934 was exactly as such. Right from the start, Ruth's life continually "circled the drain" through the age of sixty. There were of course bright spots, but they were few and far between. Until after almost a lifetime, she was able to bring to bear the decent life she fully deserved. Never once for a second did she give up. Never once for a second did she quit fighting, and still doesn't even after eighty-five years. Ruth taught herself to read, balance a checkbook, grocery shop, run a household, and raise three children. All the while when her life spun seemingly out of control. No one will be able to fully understand the life she has led. Yet, this book may serve as a template to a decent life for anyone faced with adversity to whatever degree.
Download or read book Diaries written by Susie Newman and published by . This book was released on 2013-03 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ten women, ten stories, told in diary form... Each woman is as unique as her story, a patchwork quilt of places, faces, experiences and circumstance. The only common thread is the year and the diaries fall into order by month. Written in distinct voices, each story gives a vivid picture of the age and crisis of the diarist. These vastly different stories range from sixty-eight year old Ruthie, facing her mortality as she battles a terminal illness to twelve year old, biracial, Jasmine, facing an identity crisis as she reaches adolescence. The diaries of Libby and Eden take you to hidden places of darkness while the diaries of Sissy and Brooke shine a light on all that is wholesome and sweet. The reader will empathize with Jessie and Claire as they journal their way through self-discovery and the diaries of Angela and Maggie will cause you to laugh out loud. The stories are a unique collection that immerse the reader into the lives of these women and give an understanding of human strength as well as human weakness. Each story is an honest portrait of the human condition. These stories run the gamut of emotions, always entertaining, they are by turns poignant, sad, lighthearted, serious, graphic, and at times downright hilarious. Diaries carries a message to the heart that touches the soul.
