Book excerpt: When Cole's teacher catches him drawing rather than listening in class, he gives Cole a special assignment: an oral presentation on an important Aboriginal figure.

These books will help students make historical connections while promoting important literacy skills.
Download or read book A Widow for One Year written by John Irving and published by Vintage Canada. This book was released on 2012-05-08 with total page 635 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “One night when she was four and sleeping in the bottom bunk of her bunk bed, Ruth Cole woke to the sound of lovemaking—it was coming from her parents’ bedroom.” This sentence opens John Irving’s ninth novel, A Widow for One Year, a story of a family marked by tragedy. Ruth Cole is a complex, often self-contradictory character—a “difficult” woman. By no means is she conventionally “nice,” but she will never be forgotten. Ruth’s story is told in three parts, each focusing on a critical time in her life. When we first meet her—on Long Island, in the summer of 1958—Ruth is only four. The second window into Ruth’s life opens on the fall of 1990, when she is an unmarried woman whose personal life is not nearly as successful as her literary career. She distrusts her judgment in men, for good reason. A Widow for One Year closes in the autumn of 1995, when Ruth Cole is a forty-one-year-old widow and mother. She’s about to fall in love for the first time. Richly comic, as well as deeply disturbing, A Widow for One Year is a multilayered love story of astonishing emotional force. Both ribald and erotic, it is also a brilliant novel about the passage of time and the relentlessness of grief.

Book excerpt: Jill Jones a de bons amis, un excellent travail, et des rencards réguliers. Ce qu’elle n’a pas, c’est de l’audace, ou bien un brin de folie … C’est en tous cas ce qu’elle croit. Mais elle rencontre alors un beau biker tatoué qui l’embrase immédiatement. Soudain, elle dit oui à toutes sortes de choses, à commencer par une nuit dans son lit, et ce, sans aucune condition. Cole Novak, expert dans le domaine de la sécurité, gagne sa vie en protégeant les autres, mais il est accablé par le chagrin de ne pas avoir été capable de sauver la personne la plus importante dans sa vie. C’est alors qu’il rencontre Jill, et pour une nuit, elle illumine son univers… mais elle disparaît tout aussi rapidement, et il replonge alors dans cette noirceur qu’il connaît maintenant trop bien. Mais Cole découvre bientôt que Jill est plus près de lui qu’il ne le pensait : elle habite dans la maison qu’il envisage de vendre afin de laisser le passé derrière lui. Alors que l’audacieuse femme de ses rêves s’avère être sa voisine, Cole vendra-t-il tout de même la maison pour s’en aller, ou bien se laissera-t-il aller à Jill en ouvrant son cœur à l’espoir ainsi qu’à l’amour ?

Book excerpt: Aubrey Reynolds is a small-town girl who’s made it big. A successful Hollywood director, Aubrey doesn’t have time to linger on what could have been. But when a routine blood test comes back with a false positive, she decides to take some time off to do the things she’s always wanted to do: taste the famous chocolate chip cookies at the Minnesota State Fair, hike the Grand Teton National Park, scuba dive in the Caribbean. But after Aubrey admits to herself what she’s really missing, she heads back home to Dusty Valley, Oklahoma . . . and the man she left behind. Cole Haywood is a small-town fireman and that’s just fine with him. Sure, when the love of his life left their hometown to chase her dreams he was heartbroken and—he’ll admit—damn mad. But Cole would have never forgiven himself if he had held Aubrey back from success. So the last thing he expects after all these years is to walk into his favorite bar one night and find the girl he’s always loved—there—looking for him. Maybe now’s the time to make his dreams come true. Advance praise for Love, Again “Aubrey and Cole are sure to steal your heart.

Book excerpt: Nous avons tous besoin de plus de multiplicateurs autour de nous. Dans le monde du travail, il existe deux types de leader et deux styles de management radicalement différents. Certains leaders drainent les capacités et l'intelligence de leurs équipes alors que d'autres les amplifient pour produire de meilleurs résultats.

Ce sont les leaders qui incitent les employés à se dépasser pour obtenir des résultats qui dépassent les attentes. Ce sont les multiplicateurs. Augmentez les performances de votre entreprise. Ayant analysé les données de plus de 150 dirigeants, l'experte en leadership Liz Wiseman a identifié cinq disciplines qui distinguent les Multiplicateurs des Diminueurs.
