Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Yellow Bills is a book aimed at 6-9 year olds taking them on an enchanting tale of unlikely friendships and striving against all the odds to reach one’s dreams. Mya is an eight year old girl who loves planes and wants to be a pilot when she grows up. As luck would have it she comes across a flying school run by Lieutenant Drake who awards his pupils with pilot hat’s when they graduate. Mya thinks this will be a great start to her flying career and wants to join the class, but there’s just one problem. She’s not a duck! Could Goose the little duckling with big flying ambitions be the key to helping her fly and getting her pilot’s hat? Or will Mr Sour, the teacher who didn’t quite make the grade himself, have other ideas? As Mya tries to fly she realises she has taken on more than she bargained for and only has numerous scrapes and bruises to show for her effort. Her idea of a winged cape falls flat on its face, literally, and her good friend Goose, who has offered to help her is at a loss as to how she can get off the ground. However, an unlikely source of help comes in the shape of her Mum who surprises her one day with a modified bike. In fact it’s more than modified it’s downright monstrous, with a huge wing and propeller attached to the top. It’s only meant for show but Mya is determined to prove her mum wrong – the bike will fly. Inspired by authors such as Roald Dahl and Angela Sommer-Bodenburg’s ‘The Little Vampire’ collection, Michelle McKenna weaves a story with the humour and invention of Nick Ward’s ‘Charlie Small’ series meets Dick King Smith’s wonder of the animal world.

Book excerpt: Finalist for the National Book Award, The Yellow Birds is the harrowing story of two young soldiers trying to stay alive in Iraq. "The war tried to kill us in the spring." So begins this powerful account of friendship and loss. In Al Tafar, Iraq, twenty-one-year old Private Bartle and eighteen-year-old Private Murphy cling to life as their platoon launches a bloody battle for the city. Bound together since basic training when Bartle makes a promise to bring Murphy safely home, the two have been dropped into a war neither is prepared for. In the endless days that follow, the two young soldiers do everything to protect each other from the forces that press in on every side: the insurgents, physical fatigue, and the mental stress that comes from constant danger. As reality begins to blur into a hazy nightmare, Murphy becomes increasingly unmoored from the world around him and Bartle takes actions he could never have imagined. With profound emotional insight, especially into the effects of a hidden war on mothers and families at home, The Yellow Birds is a groundbreaking novel that is destined to become a classic.

Download or read book Huge Cloudy written by Bill Carty and published by . This book was released on 2019-04-23 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. In his debut collection HUGE CLOUDY, Bill Carty attends to the world, bringing thought to vision with a cartographer's sense of scale, and a shipbuilder's attention to detail. Alternating stretches of lyric narrative with longer serial poems, HUGE CLOUDY proceeds by a Ship of Theseus poetics. Like a series of field notes, the poems document change as the contemporary landscape is revised by big and small forces--the bank vault that becomes an open mic, the pond that becomes condos, the puddle of vomit to walk around. These poems attend to the ugliness of a world, of a history, or poetic lineage, with a magic map. Drawing as much from the neighborhoods of Seattle as from coastal environs, this is a collection that folds the map--a kind of bounding sphere--in on itself.

Book Synopsis Beyond the Xs and Os by : Mark C. Poloncarz
Download or read book Beyond the Xs and Os written by Mark C. Poloncarz and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2019-08-19 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond the Xs and Os is the previously unpublished story of how a long-term stadium lease was negotiated and signed by New York's Erie County, the state, and the Buffalo Bills football team. Mark C. Poloncarz, the elected executive of the community that owned the stadium, provides a rare glimpse into the long, difficult, but ultimately rewarding effort to successfully conclude negotiations between a National Football League (NFL) franchise, the NFL, and a multitude of players from the political arena, including Governor Andrew Cuomo and US Senator Chuck Schumer. Poloncarz discusses the financial side of sports and reveals how the county was able to navigate what proved to be often-turbulent waters. Complicating negotiations was an ongoing frenzy in the local news media, hungry for any news about the new lease, and Bills team owner Ralph C. Wilson Jr., who was ninety-two and had said the team would be sold upon his death, thereby possibly being relocated to another city. In the end, a new lease was signed and the Bills remained in Buffalo at a time when a number of similar sized communities watched their teams relocate to other cities in larger markets.
