Book excerpt: If elevenyearold Ferg Gottin had been bought from a store, his parents would have returned him and demanded a refund. Because, you see, for the Gottins, parenting is an experiment gone badly wrong. So when they find a school where you can dump your kids and forget about them, they decide that Horrid High is the perfect place for Ferg. But there’s nothing perfect about Horrid High—it’s quite unlike the boarding schools Ferg has read about in storybooks. Ferg soon realizes that this isn’t just a school for orphans, runaways and rejects. Horrid High is a training ground for horrid teachers who are being sent out into the world to spread horridness! If that’s not enough, Principal Perverse has a Grand Plan that he plans to reveal to every horrid teacher everywhere. Ferg and his friends are the only hope that the children of the world now have. Will they manage to save the day? Open the gates of Horrid High and find out!

Download or read book Horrid written by Katrina Leno and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of You Must Not Miss comes a haunting contemporary horror novel that explores themes of mental illness, rage, and grief, twisted with spine-chilling elements of Stephen King and Agatha Christie. Following her father's death, Jane North-Robinson and her mom move from sunny California to the dreary, dilapidated old house in Maine where her mother grew up. All they want is a fresh start, but behind North Manor's doors lurks a history that leaves them feeling more alone . . . and more tormented. As the cold New England autumn arrives, and Jane settles in to her new home, she finds solace in old books and memories of her dad. She steadily begins making new friends, but also faces bullying from the resident "bad seed," struggling to tamp down her own worst nature in response. Jane's mom also seems to be spiraling with the return of her childhood home, but she won't reveal why. Then Jane discovers that the "storage room" her mom has kept locked isn't for storage at all -- it's a little girl's bedroom, left untouched for years and not quite as empty of inhabitants as it appears . . . Is it grief? Mental illness? Or something more . . . horrid?
Download or read book The U S Technology Skills Gap written by Gary J. Beach and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-07-10 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is a widening “skills gap” in science and math education threatening America’s future? That is the seminal question addressed in The U.S. Technology Skills Gap, a comprehensive 104-year review of math and science education in America. Some claim this “skills gap” is “equivalent to a permanent national recession” while others cite how the gap threatens America’s future economic, workforce employability and national security. This much is sure: America’s math and science skills gap is, or should be, an issue of concern for every business and information technology executive in the United States and The U.S Technology Skills Gap is the how-to-get involved guidebook for those executives laying out in a compelling chronologic format: The history of the science and math skills gap in America Explanation of why decades of astute warnings were ignored Inspiring examples of private company efforts to supplement public education A pragmatic 10-step action plan designed to solve the problem And a tantalizing theory of an obscure Japanese physicist that suggests America’s days as the global scientific leader are numbered Engaging and indispensable, The U.S. Technology Skills Gap is essential reading for those eager to see America remain a relevant global power in innovation and invention in the years ahead.
