Book excerpt: Winner at the 2015 International Latino Book Awards. Charlotte and Claire, two sisters who will discover the wonders of eating fruit by playing and laughing, while talking about family, friendship, peace or diversity. In a little town in the south of Spain, next to the sea, lived two little girls named Charlotte and Claire. It was a lovely place, surrounded by magical trees which grew wonderful fruits with thousands of different colors and aromas. The two sisters decided to play a game: every day of the week they would choose a color, think of a fruit in the same color, make up a short story about it, and then eat it for their afternoon snack. The first years of a child’s life are essential when it comes to developing healthy eating habits. As we all know, fruit is an essential part of their diet, but can it be fun too? Fun and Fruit is a truly delicious tale, full of bright colors to help parents and educators show children how to enjoy a type of food that’s full of energy and poetry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s Dixie’s first day of school and some of her classmates are sharing details about their various allergies. Bridget tells of her wheat allergy and how she gets to order a special meal from restaurants. Dixie thinks that must be a really special meal! And Charlie had to be rushed to the hospital in an ambulance once due to his dairy allergy. Dixie thinks that must have been thrilling! Even Hannah gets to wear a fashionable bracelet due to her peanut allergy. Dixie races home and begins to eagerly search for the slightest sign of an allergy. After many failed attempts, Dixie discovers that she is allergic to something after all. But is getting what you wish for actually as exciting as it once appeared? Dixie Wants an Allergy provides a comical and engaging approach for children who are beginning to learn about and who are coping with allergies—and who also have trouble finding what makes them unique. Corn’s playful text and Cote’s inviting illustrations encourage children to accept those with differences while learning that wanting what others have is not always a good idea. For ages 3 to 6, and a good addition to any preschool or Kindergarten classroom for read-aloud time. This book not only introduces children to the realities of allergies, which many of their peers will have, but also teaches the important lesson of being careful what you wish for.

Book excerpt: The Planeta Prize–winning novel from the author of the Petra Delicado series: “A highly literate noir, a powerful tale of lives spiraling out of control” (NB magazine). Irene’s husband has left her for a younger woman and her family business is on the verge of collapse, but the last thing she wants is to be the subject of gossip or pity. So she starts spending time with a divorcée who, in liberating herself from the bonds of marriage, has also freed herself from the clutches of the old crowd of “couple friends.” Javier is a literature teacher who suddenly loses his job at a Catholic school. He’s not ambitious—the months go by and no work materializes. Then, almost by accident, he gets back in contact with a cocky friend from his youth who introduces him to the world of stripping and male prostitution. Circumstance brings Irene and Javier together: he gets some extra cash and mental stimulation out of their relationship, and she finds an outlet for her frustrations. However, Irene doesn’t want to have sex with him—she just wants to see him naked, humiliated, dominated. Their relationship takes a troubling turn, but things may be even more complicated than they seem. Alicia Giménez-Bartlett weaves a tale of economic and personal devastation, portraying the ways that life’s disappointments can bring people to do things they never would have imagined. “Incendiary . . . This provocative dive into gender, power, and class uses diverse viewpoints to craft a powerful story and an unpredictable, memorable ending.” —Publishers Weekly “A stark realist portrait of characters who are searching for their place in a world without redemption.” —Culturamas

Download or read book Tools to Try Cards for Kids written by Leah Kuypers and published by Think Social Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-01-26 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learning to self-regulate our Zones is hard, serious work that takes time and lots of practice. Tools to Try Cards for Kids is an easy, user-friendly way to help kids ages 5-10 metacognitively explore and practice over 50 self-regulation strategies and empower them to make choices toward figuring out what works best for them. The two-sided strategy cards are divided into five color-coded categories to show how the tools work in different ways to help social emotional learners self-regulate their feelings and emotions: · FEEL IT. These tools use our senses to support regulation and modulation. · MOVE IT. These tools integrate physical activity to impact regulation and reduce anxiety. · THINK IT. These tools provide thought-based strategies to help us regulate. · DO IT. Task and goal-oriented tools involve taking action. · CONNECT. Co-regulation tools encourage empathy, thinking of others, and accessing relationships for support. Each strategy card displays an illustration of the self-regulation tool performed by inclusive characters on one side and a how-to-do-it description on the reverse. Each card also includes a reflection to help kids consider how they feel after using the tool, how it can be used to help them regulate their Zones, and whether it’s the right tool for them. For best teaching practice, the strategy deck should be used in tandem with Chapter 4 lessons in The Zones of Regulation curriculum book. The cards are also useful tools when paired with other Zones-related products, such as Navigating The Zones, and the Advanced Pack: Cards to Extend Play with Navigating The Zones. This card deck is a supplement to, not a replacement for, the in-depth curriculum and lessons in The Zones of Regulation book.
Download or read book Dream Awake written by Robert Harrie and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-01-12 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s been said it cost nothing to dream, that it’s just a fallacy, a simple means to an end to escape the mundane routine of boredom, that it’s just a quick fix to numb your senses from frustration and a cheap buzz to fill the void of a lack of passion. Allow me to spare you the suspense. There is no overnight success. The reality of any dream is only as real as you are! Through this book, it’s my personal goal to help you open your mind to what is actually possible and to what is really worth living for, to teach you that it’s not about finding a life but rather creating one through self-belief, discipline, and commitment, to show you that everything you lack in life and you believe that’s the reason why you can’t succeed is the only fallacy. I come from the same place you do, heartbreak, failures, setbacks, and plenty of rejections. We all have history. We all have a painful past. Believe me, I’m no different. I found my purpose that gives me fulfillment, and I want to share with you how I did it, and that there is no happily ever after without taking a chance. To dream awake is two-in-one. What I dream of, what I want only becomes real when I awake to who I truly am.
Download or read book My Fair Lazy written by Jen Lancaster and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2010-05-04 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Readers have followed New York Times bestselling author Jen Lancaster through job loss, sucky city living, weight loss attempts, and 1980s nostalgia. Now, in this bitter and witty memoir, Jen chronicles her efforts to achieve cultural enlightenment, with some hilarious missteps and genuine moments of inspiration along the way. Jen uses any means necessary on her quest to better herself: reading canonical literature, viewing classic films, attending the opera, researching artisan cheeses, and even enrolling in etiquette classes to improve her social graces. In Jen’s corner is a crack team of experts, including Page Six socialites, gourmet chefs, an opera aficionado, and a master sommelier. She may discover that well-regarded, high-priced stinky cheese tastes exactly as bad as it smells, and that her love for Kraft American Singles is forever. But one thing’s for certain: Eliza Doolittle’s got nothing on Jen Lancaster—and failure is an option.
