Download or read book Little Speck written by Brian K Butcher, MD and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2022-02-07 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Little Speck By: Brian K Butcher, MD Kiko is a little girl, quite little actually, and she dreams of growing bigger and bigger. Realizing, though, her size is out of her control, she becomes discouraged and focuses on the very, very small things in the world. With the help of her mother, will Kiko learn to love her size and appreciate how wonderful she is just as herself? Little Speck is an encouraging and fun rhyming story for children of all ages who may struggle with small stature. Having a good sense of self-worth is a desirable end goal of a child's emotional development. When too much emphasis is placed on physical size and appearance, it may have a negative impact on the way children view themselves and others. In Japanese, the name Kiko means "be happy." Little Speck is a reminder for children they are special regardless of their size and that is certainly a reason for them to be happy!
Download or read book Speck written by Peter Gordon Buchanan-Smith and published by Princeton Architectural Press. This book was released on 2001-11 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Speck, Peter Buchanan-Smith, Art Director of the New York Times Op-Ed page, asks artists, designers, lawyers, writers, collectors, and photographers to explore our obsessions with the small objects that loom large in our everyday lives.To wit: Maira Kalman empties people's pocketbooks; Nicholas Blechman and Jesse Gordon trace the history of the oldest piece of dust; David Horrowitz catalogs manhole covers; and Peter Buchanan-Smith unearths a 1966 high school yearbook and transcribes the inscriptions ("To a real sweet and cute guy with a great personality. Remember English III").Speck also shows how "ordinary" people can fascinate as much as "ordinary" objects: an interview with shoe shiner Harry Kitt, Manhattan's last practitioner of the dry-shine, photographs taken by a blind man on a sight-seeing tour, and a barber's extensive collection of earth, water, and air from around the world ask us to re-think our assumptions about the commonplace.

Download or read book A Speck in the Sea written by John Aldridge and published by Hachette Books. This book was released on 2017-05-23 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The harrowing adventure-at-sea memoir recounting the heroic search-and-rescue mission for lost Montauk fisherman John Aldridge, which Daniel James Brown calls "A terrific read." I am floating in the middle of the night, and nobody in the world even knows I am missing. Nobody is looking for me. You can't get more alone than that. You can't be more lost. I've got too many people who love me. There's no way I'm dying like this. In the dead of night on July 24, 2013, John Aldridge was thrown off the back of the Anna Mary while his fishing partner, Anthony Sosinski, slept below. As desperate hours ticked by, Sosinski, the families, the local fishing community, and the U.S. Coast Guard in three states mobilized in an unprecedented search effort that culminated in a rare and exhilarating success. A tale of survival, perseverance, and community, A Speck in the Sea tells of one man's struggle to survive as friends and strangers work to bring him home. Aldridge's wrenching first-person account intertwines with the narrative of the massive, constantly evolving rescue operation designed to save him.

Download or read book Milo Speck Accidental Agent written by Linda Urban and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2015 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Milo had read about magic before. He knew that kids in stories sometimes found magic in secret drawers or hidden away in attics, and he had always hoped that if he were to find magic, it would appear in the form of a mysterious silver coin or a doorway to an enchanted world. But when magic came to Milo Speck, it came in the form of a sock. "Figures," said Milo. So begins Milo's adventure through a clothes dryer into Ogregon, a land populated with hungry ogres, dino-sized turkeys, kids needing rescue, and--Milo's dad? What's his regular-old salesman father doing in Ogregon? In fact, what's Milo doing there? But the answers must wait--because the top priority for all non-ogres is escape. Well, after Milo thwarts the dastardly plot that threatens to make kids everywhere into ogre snack food. But how can a small boy in the very big world of Ogregon possibly do that?
