Book excerpt: It’s summer vacation, and sisters Ella and Alora are trying to amuse themselves at their mother’s friend’s house while the grownups talk and talk and talk... They are running out of ideas to pass the time when they discover a very unusual drain cover out of sight in a secret patio. Made out of stone, with intricate carvings and handholds, it’s like nothing they’ve ever seen before. Desperate for adventure (or at least something to relieve their boredom), they remove the cover and find a mysteriously glowing staircase leading downwards. An apparently magical path that’s just begging them to follow it—How could anyone resist? Holding tightly to each other’s hands, they start their journey and are astonished by what they find: an adventure more epic and amazing than anything they could have imagined, taking them to countries and continents all over the world! Even as they search for a way back to where they started (not wanting to worry their mother), they enjoy the amazing opportunity to experience these wildly different locations, everywhere from the deserts of Egypt to the ice floes of the Antarctic, and learn about them from their unexpected and colourful inhabitants. A story just as entertaining as it is educational, Ella and Alora and The Secret Drain showcases the importance of friendship and family and of learning all about our amazing world so that we can start taking better care of it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paint your own lowrider just the way you like it! Impalas, Cadillacs and Rivieras. In the Lowrider Coloring Book, you will color the classic and most popular Lowrider models. Lowrider culture reaches back to 1930s Los Angeles, where it became popular for style-conscious Latino-Americans to load their cars with sandbags to bring it closer to the road. Style was everything, and when lowered cars were banned in California in the 1950s, it became necessary to find a way to raise and lower the car simply to avoid fines. The solution was to use hydraulics from old fighter planes left over from World War II. The rapper Kid Frost showcased lowriding in the early 90s hit Lowrider, and since then, the cars are closely associated with hip hop culture. Today, lowriding is bigger than ever with thousands of enthusiasts in most parts of the world. All strive to outdo each other with the most elegant varnish, interior, hydraulics, chrome and rims. The custom cars you'll be coloring in the Lowrider Coloring book were converted by some of the best and most legendary enthusiasts. What color is your Impala?

Download or read book Punk Rock Dad written by Jim Lindberg and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jim Lindberg is a Punk Rock Dad. When he drives his kids to school in the morning, they listen to the Ramones, the Clash, or the Descendents—and that's it. They can listen to Britney and Justin on their own time. Jim goes to soccer games, dance rehearsals, and piano recitals like all the other dads, but when he feels the need, he also goes to punk shows, runs into the slam pit, and comes home bruised and beaten . . . but somehow feeling strangely better. While the other dads dye their hair brown to cover the gray, Jim occasionally dyes his blue or green. He makes his daughters' lunches, kisses their boo-boos, and tucks them in at night—and then goes into the garage and plays Black Flag and Minor Threat songs at a criminal volume. He pays his taxes, votes in all the presidential and gubernatorial elections, serves on jury duty, and reserves the right to believe that there is a vast Right Wing Conspiracy—and that the head of the P.T.A. is possibly in on it. He is a Punk Rock Dad.
Download or read book Anthology of Ancient Medival Woman s Song written by A. Klinck and published by Springer. This book was released on 2004-04-16 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection focuses on a woman's point of view in love poetry, and juxtaposes poems by women and poems about women to raise questions about how femininity is constructed. Although most medieval 'woman's songs' are either anonymous or male-authored lyrics in a popular style, the term can usefully be expanded to cover poetry composed by women, and poetry that is aristocratic or learned rather than popular. Poetry from ancient Greece and Rome that resonates with the medieval poems is also included here. Readers will find a range of voices, often echoing similar themes, as women rejoice or lament, praise or condemn, plead or curse, speak in jest or in earnest, to men and to each other, about love.
