In her first year at the college in Birmingham she discovers a lump on her breast and is referred to Aston Hospital where she first encounters a consultant, Mr. Theo Xavier. He has a great bearing on Toni's future. After her successful exam results she decides to go to London for the weekend. Whilst driving under the influence of drugs and with a borrowed license she has a terrible accident and her passenger is fatally injured. Toni is left paralysed and permanently in a wheelchair. She is on the verge of suicide, not because of her injuries but the loss of her lover. To add to her problems Toni has to have a serious operation not connected with her spinal injury but something almost as critical. Mr. Xavier is the surgeon, Susannah his wife. Susannah befriends Toni and she reluctantly (reluctantly because she wasn't used to family life and how to deal with it) becomes one of the family.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foreword by Colby Sharp In the decade since the first edition of Still Learning to Read was published, the prevalence of testing and the Common Core State Standards have changed what is expected of both teachers and students. The new edition of Still Learning to Read focuses on the needs of students in grades 3-6 in all aspects of reading workshop, including reading workshop, read-aloud, classroom design, digital tools, fiction, nonfiction, and close reading. The book stays true to its original beliefs of slowing down and knowing our readers, but it also takes into account the sense of urgency that changing times and standards impose on classrooms. This edition examines current trends in literacy, includes a new section on intentional instructional planning, and provides expanded examples of mini-lessons and routines that promote deeper thinking about learning. It also includes a brand new chapter on scaffolding for reading nonfiction and showcases the authors' latest thinking on close reading and text complexity. Online videos provide glimpses into classrooms as students make book choices, work in small groups, and discuss their reading notebooks. Expanded and updated book lists, recommendations for digital tools, lesson cycles, and sections specifically written for school leaders round out this foundational resource.
