Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two-time Caldecott Medalists Leo and Diane Dillon celebrate the love we feel for our children in this touching, multi-generational story about the lasting power of family. Simple words and colorful paintings tell the warm, engaging story of new parents who buy a rocking chair when they are expecting a baby. Bright, sunny illustrations show the precious intimacy between parents and their children; the new mother glows with affection, and the new father reads aloud to their young son. Time passes, and the boy grows up; the beloved rocker is moved to the attic and gathers dust. But when the boy becomes a man, the cycle begins anew. He and his wife have a baby girl, and the rocking chair is needed again. Legendary artists Leo and Diane Dillon are two of the greatest illustrators of our time. This is their final collaboration, inspired by their own rocking chair. It is a tender tribute to the enduring power of family love-passed from generation to generation. Here is a book for all ages to cherish. It serves as a loving reminder of those who have gone before us-and those who are still to come.

Download or read book The First Century written by Martha Ann Miller and published by . This book was released on 2012-11-30 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Martha Ann Miller may never be ready for the rocking chair, but she has been on the rocking horse of life for 101 years, and her account of the ups and downs will take you on an adventuresome, fulfilling ride from the fields of southern Indiana near the Ohio River to the heights of political activism next to the Potomac River. A shy Hoosier farm girl and an excellent baker at a young age, she parlayed her talent into a free four-year scholarship to college. She credits that Depression Era boost to her education as the fulcrum that lifted her high in later life. She worked tirelessly and unsung for better education for children in her growing community of Arlington, Virginia, and today those schools are among the best in the nation. As a teacher herself, she defied the “Massive Resistance” in the Commonwealth of Virginia to Supreme Court-decreed public school integration by welcoming two black students to her junior-high classroom when other teachers had refused, and the principal had resisted. Oh, and she did a lot of other valuable and interesting things on the way to celebrating her centenary. She is tenacious, she is not letting go, and she hopes you take to heart her lessons as you read this chronicle of her exceptional life.

Download or read book Rocking Chair Tales written by John Smith and published by Howard Books. This book was released on 2013-12-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Let me tell you a story." What sentence draws us in with more magnetism? In his book, Rocking Chair Tales, author John William Smith seeks to draw in readers with a collection of short stories intended to light up the imagination and spark conversation. Stories short enough to be read aloud will cause the reader to recall fond memories and perhaps share his or her own stories. Smith's tales, mostly drawn from his childhood, are true, yet they serve as parables because "they give truth flavor by attaching names, faces, and geographical locations to abstract notions and emotional realities." His recollections serve as a powerful tool to recapture those magical moments which lay hidden within our cluttered lives.
Download or read book Grandpa s Rocking Chair written by Vern Schultz and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2018-03-17 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year 1929 was devastating for America. It was the beginning of the Great Depression, which led to our country’s economic collapse. The author, also born in 1929, lived through those challenging Depression years, experiencing firsthand the many adaptations and sacrifices needed to survive those trying times. Now some eighty-eight years later, the author looks back to review those key principles that helped folks survive those challenging 1930s. Although the times we are living in today are radically different than in those Depression years, the author holds to the belief that if these same key principles are followed by America’s working class today, they will be more successful in meeting the challenge of our ever-changing, complex society. This book offers some suggested guides that should aid today’s workers in achieving increased financial independence by following these same key principles, with grandpa’s retirement rocking chair as the goal!
Download or read book The Enchanted Rocking Chair written by L.C. Honore and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-02-03 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Enchanted Rocking Chair touches many hearts as it travels throughout many parts of the world. As you travel through the pages that give birth to this wonderful chair and as you meet the sweet and generous children that possess it for a limited time, it will touch your heart as well. The chair is born into a troubled world of war and pain, yet it manages to bring a measure of hope and happiness to all the families that come in contact with it, and they in turn affect the lives of the people they meet. It receives its enchantment from the cloak of a tiny man whose life is saved by a kind and generous grandfather who lives in a small village in France. In appreciation for the kindness of the old French gentleman, he leaves his bright red cloak to be used as the seat of the rocking chair, and that gift endows the chair with the gift of magic. Destined to stay only a short time with each child, it changes their lives and the lives they affect for all time. The love they show others is partly captured by the chair, and it becomes even stronger as it travels the world. But there is a dark side to the magic of the chair. Dark forces object to the use of magic by mortals and cause pain to humans as well as to the magic folk. You will laugh and perhaps cry as you read these stories to your children or to yourself. You and they will learn that you don't have to believe in magic to have it touch your heart. You will not put this book down, nor will your children allow you to do so until you read the last word of the last chapter, and even then, you will want to know where it will go from there. The Enchanted Rocking Chair will enchant your life.
