Book excerpt: Hailed by David Sedaris as "perfectly, relentlessly funny" and by Colson Whitehead as "sardonic without being cruel, tender without being sentimental," from the author of the new collection Look Alive Out There. Wry, hilarious, and profoundly genuine, this debut collection of literary essays is a celebration of fallibility and haplessness in all their glory. From despoiling an exhibit at the Natural History Museum to provoking the ire of her first boss to siccing the cops on her mysterious neighbor, Crosley can do no right despite the best of intentions -- or perhaps because of them. Together, these essays create a startlingly funny and revealing portrait of a complex and utterly recognizable character who aims for the stars but hits the ceiling, and the inimitable city that has helped shape who she is. I Was Told There'd Be Cake introduces a strikingly original voice, chronicling the struggles and unexpected beauty of modern urban life.

Download or read book Clever Girl written by Tessa Hadley and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2014-03-04 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clever Girl is an indelible story of one woman’s life, unfolded in a series of beautifully sculpted episodes that illuminate an era, moving from the 1960s to today, from one of Britain’s leading literary lights—Tessa Hadley—the author of the New York Times Notable Books Married Love and The London Train. Like Alice Munro and Colm Tóibin, Tessa Hadley brilliantly captures the beauty, innocence, and irony of ordinary lives—an ability to transform the mundane into the sublime that elevates domestic fiction to literary art. Written with the celebrated precision, intensity, and complexity that have marked her previous works, Clever Girl is a powerful exploration of family relationships and class in modern life, witnessed through the experiences of an English woman named Stella. Unfolding in a series of snapshots, Tessa Hadley’s moving novel follows Stella from the shallows of childhood, growing up with a single mother in a Bristol bedsit in the 1960s, into the murky waters of middle age. Clever Girl is a story vivid in its immediacy and rich in drama—violent deaths, failed affairs, broken dreams, missed chances. Yet it is Hadley’s observations of everyday life, her keen skill at capturing the ways men and women think and feel and relate to one another, that dazzles.

Children will learn about the four seasons and the various activities that can be enjoyed in each. Young readers will also explore poetry through rhyme and meter as they listen to the verses being read, or read the story themselves. In winter, families spend time playing in the snow, enjoying holiday lights, sledding down hills, and warming up by the fire with a mug of hot chocolate after time outside. Spring brings new flowers and days of flyingkites and looking for shapes in the clouds. In summer, families take walks to the park to watch the animals in the pond, and children play hide-and-seek, swim with friends, and enjoy ice-cream cones to stay cool.

And the season of fall brings with it cooler weather spent wandering in corn mazes, jumping in leaves, enjoying homemade stew, and decorating the house with pumpkins.
