Download or read book Penny written by Denise Brennan-Nelson and published by Sleeping Bear Press. This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Found by a young boy and placed into his pocket for safekeeping, Penny feels useless compared to the exciting Superball, the shiny Marble, the adventuresome Rock, and the colorful Bubblegum. But as she reminisces about her life and history, she realizes her worth, and it is reinforced by the young boy's need for her in an important decision. Denise Brennan-Nelson's boundless energy and enthusiasm comes from her days as a motivational speaker. Since the publication of her first book, Buzzy the Bumblebee in 1999, Denise has taken that enthusiasm into schools and inspired thousands of children to "bee-lieve" in themselves. Her second title, My Momma Likes to Say, shares her interest in and knowledge of clichés, idioms, and funny expressions used by adults and often misunderstood by the children who hear them. Award-winning wildlife artist Michael Glenn Monroe is also known for his charming character illustrations in such titles as Buzzy the Bumblebee, A Wish to be a Christmas Tree (read aloud on the Today Show in 2002 by Katie Couric), and The Christmas Humbugs. He brings this lively brand of illustration to the adventures of Penny.

School’s out for summer, and Penny and her cousin Frankie have big plans to eat lots of butter pecan ice cream, swim at the local pool, and cheer on their favorite baseball team—the Brooklyn Dodgers! But sometimes things don’t go according to plan. Penny’s mom doesn’t want her to swim because she’s afraid Penny will get polio. Frankie is constantly getting into trouble, and Penny feels caught between the two sides of her family. But even if the summer doesn’t exactly start as planned . . . things can work out in the most unexpected ways! Set just after World War II, this thought-provoking novel also highlights the prejudice Penny’s Italian American family must confront because people of Italian descent were “the enemy” not long ago.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "No way. This is way too personal for me to go out and publish," I told my sister. "Why not? You don't know how many people would pay to read about real-life drama," she said. So I contemplated it, and here we are. Writing about my early life helped me process a lot mentally and grow, and I'm hoping it also helps others know it's okay to speak about mental health and abuse and share with others the things you stored in your mind. Growing up with all these obstacles helped me learn that there's more for us and you never know what someone is going through. I've always wanted to publish books, so this is basically where I am starting. Yes, this book may be dark or funny or dramatic. I hope you enjoy it. Thank you.

Download or read book Getting Well Naturally from The Soil to The Stomach written by Penny Kelly and published by Lily Hill Publishing. This book was released on 2021-03-07 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in a world where millions of people are suffering from multiple forms of degeneration, wide-spread ignorance about Mother Nature as well as the world we live in, and very few survival skills. The risk is that we may not survive should anything arise to threaten or disturb our modern and very fragile way of life. The tragedy in all of this is the loss of food traditions as well as natural tools and techniques for restoring health and a sense of well-being. These tools and traditions were based on an understanding of our connection to Mother Earth, knowing how to use real food, the willingness to engage in physical work or exercise, and regular fasting and detox to clean out the body. People went to great lengths to find and collect the foods they needed to produce healthy babies and maintain full function right up to death. Before the Industrial Revolution, if people avoided infections and accidents, they often lived long, healthy lives and died peacefully in their sleep at advanced ages. What did our ancestors know about food and health that we don't? Why is each generation suffering from degenerative diseases at earlier and earlier ages? What do we need to know to really heal ourselves? Getting Well From the Soil to the Stomach offers an illuminating look at these questions and outlines a path to sustainable medicine. "European missionaries carried the white man's diet around the world with them, becoming a potent wedge between people and the feeding traditions they had evolved over thousands of years. Everywhere they went, disruption of indigenous lives followed. People who depended on the continuation of their food tradition for maintenance of their high level of immunity were forced out of their sustaining routines, into schools and churches, and onto barren, dead soils. They were fed Western foods right along with Western religions. The result was confusion, disease, psychological malaise, and death everywhere the missionaries went. "Today we do not have missionaries to contend with, we have marketing departments. A great deal of misinformation has been generating by marketing programs designed to get sales moving for a product. Once the misinformation gets out there, we build on it, creating a labyrinth of wrong turns in terms of our diet. If we do not correct these, we simply will not survive."
