Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The twentieth anniversary edition of the classic story of an incredible group of students and the teacher who inspired them, featuring updates on the students’ lives, new journal entries, and an introduction by Erin Gruwell Now a public television documentary, Freedom Writers: Stories from the Heart In 1994, an idealistic first-year teacher in Long Beach, California, named Erin Gruwell confronted a room of “unteachable, at-risk” students. She had intercepted a note with an ugly racial caricature and angrily declared that this was precisely the sort of thing that led to the Holocaust. She was met by uncomprehending looks—none of her students had heard of one of the defining moments of the twentieth century. So she rebooted her entire curriculum, using treasured books such as Anne Frank’s diary as her guide to combat intolerance and misunderstanding. Her students began recording their thoughts and feelings in their own diaries, eventually dubbing themselves the “Freedom Writers.” Consisting of powerful entries from the students’ diaries and narrative text by Erin Gruwell, The Freedom Writers Diary is an unforgettable story of how hard work, courage, and determination changed the lives of a teacher and her students. In the two decades since its original publication, the book has sold more than one million copies and inspired a major motion picture Freedom Writers. And now, with this twentieth-anniversary edition, readers are brought up to date on the lives of the Freedom Writers, as they blend indispensable takes on social issues with uplifting stories of attending college—and watch their own children follow in their footsteps. The Freedom Writers Diary remains a vital read for anyone who believes in second chances.

Book excerpt: While observing trainers of exotic animals, journalist Amy Sutherland had an epiphany: What if she used their techniques with the human animals in her own life–specifically her dear husband, Scott? As Sutherland put training principles into action, she noticed that not only did her twelve-year-old marriage improve, but she herself became more optimistic and less judgmental. What started as a goofy experiment had such good results that Sutherland began using the training techniques with all the people in her life, including her mother, her friends, her students, even the clerk at the post office. Full of fun facts, fascinating insights, hilarious anecdotes, and practical tips, What Shamu Taught Me About Life, Love, and Marriage reveals the biggest lesson Sutherland learned: The only animal you can truly change is yourself.

Download or read book Simple Food for the Good Life written by Helen Nearing and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 1999 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifty years before the phrase "simple living" became fashionable, Helen and Scott Nearing were living their celebrated "Good Life" on homesteads first in Vermont, then in Maine. All the way to their ninth decades, the Nearings grew their own food, built their own buildings, and fought an eloquent combat against the silliness of America's infatuation with consumer goods and refined foods. They also wrote or co-wrote more than thirty books, many of which are now being brought back into print by the Good Life Center and Chelsea Green. Simple Food for the Good Life is a jovial collection of "quips, quotes, and one-of-a-kind recipes meant to amuse and intrigue all of those who find themselves in the kitchen, willingly or otherwise." Recipes such as Horse Chow, Scott's Emulsion, Crusty Carrot Croakers, Raw Beet Borscht, Creamy Blueberry Soup, and Super Salad for a Crowd should improve the mood as well as whet the appetite of any guest. Here is an antidote for the whole foods enthusiast who is "fed up" with the anxieties and drudgeries of preparing fancy meals with stylish, expensive, hard-to-find ingredients. This celebration of salads, leftovers, raw foods, and homegrown fruits and vegetables takes the straightest imaginable route from their stem or vine to your table. "The funniest, crankiest, most ambivalent cookbook you'll ever read," said Food & Wine magazine. "This is more than a mere cookbook," said Health Science magazine: "It belongs to the category of classics, destined to be remembered through the ages." Among Helen Nearing's numerous books is Chelsea Green's Loving and Leaving the Good Life, a memoir of her fifty-year marriage to Scott Nearing and the story of Scott's deliberate death at the age of one hundred. Helen and Scott Nearing's final homestead in Harborside, Maine, has been established in perpetuity as an educational progam under the name of The Good Life Center.
Download or read book When I Was a Little Girl My Father Taught Me How to Pray written by Minnie Russaw Jordan and published by Author House. This book was released on 2012-09-18 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about how God used a man that could not read nor write to instill Godly values into his children's lives. He was a man that prayed with his family, making sure that prayer was a number one priority. He worked hard to provide for the family, walking in authority. He knew how to discipline, yet show real love in the anointing of God. This caused a small child to realize how important it is to pray. She saw the difference in the life of a father that prayed and lived a life before her. Even through near death experiences, divorce, tragedy, and sickness, she finds out that the power of prayer is real, and now she is also walking in the same spirit of prayer to instill into the next generation. There are seven steps in this book that God used to orchestrate this which is guaranteed to work.
Download or read book Dirt written by Terence McLaughlin and published by Echo Point+ORM. This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Delve into the fascinating world of dirt in this history of culture, cleanliness, and our evolving perceptions of what is and isn’t gross. In this engaging and often humorous study of life’s imperfections, public health and hygiene authority Terence McLaughlin dissects our attitudes toward the filth that has accompanied society throughout human history. According to him, “dirt” is a matter of opinion. Cultural attitudes about everything from factory smoke to personal hygiene are constantly shifting with the economic and political exigencies of the era. McLaughlin cites Old Testament examples of cleanliness which, unbeknownst at the time, helped protect the observant from the plague. The famous baths of ancient Rome were seen as progress for personal hygiene, and later scorned by Christians who rejected all things Roman. With a litany of fascinating examples, McLaughlin sheds light on how we accept or reject substances. Dirt is essential reading for anyone wishing to understand how we shape our environment.

Download or read book Teach Me How to B a Lady written by Ann M. Chealey and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2009-07 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is so much in life, and about life we learn on a daily basis. No matter how young you are, or how old you may be, life is a journey for everyone. In this journey, we go through seasons of life. There is summer, fall, winter and spring. Some seasons last longer than others, but they all have an important part to play in our lives. As we venture to live in the times of each season, we will always see that they are never the same, and as people we must be willing to adjust to the changes, the temperature, and climate that we are placed in. Even during the times, when it seems like it will never stop raining, I can still have joy and a smile, because I know that sooner or later the sun is going to shine, and the clouds are going to move, and the dew that has fallen upon the grass will bring moisture to the flowers, so they can blossom and become who they were purposed to be. So, I say to you, despise not the times when life becomes challenging. Embrace the difference in others, so that you can learn to love who God has made you to be. Never give up on your dreams, because your dreams, never gives up on you. That's why you keep having those dreams, because they want to become reality in your life. When you can't find encouragement from nobody else, encourage yourself. It is very important that even at a young age, you live your life today, for your tomorrow. Just remember, without God we can fail, but with him and through him, all things are possible, to them that believe.
