Book excerpt: Many people find slugs to be unattractive, but this story turns ugly into amazing. This charming children's book details the nighttime adventures of Slimy Slick, our favorite banana slug, as he glides into danger on his way to devour the tasty treat he has been dreaming about. Along the way, he encounters an earthworm, a shrew, and a boy and his dog. This story is written for the 6-13 age group but appeals to adults as well through humor and fascinating facts. Readers will learn about the clever design of this gastropod and see how Slick uses his natural gifts to protect himself and to help him navigate through life in the wild. The ecological benefits of the banana slug are highlighted through the voice of a scientist, and slug anatomy and function are woven into the story to provide further educational value about these amazing creatures. The main character, a young boy, learns about life in the natural forest and garden as his feelings range from joy to anger and back again. The story, written by a retired teacher and chiropractor, provides 'reach' for readers to help maintain their interest and to promote higher learning. When read alongside an adult, magic can happen; this is a fabulous way to connect with the young reader. The emotional component builds as the story progresses and engages the reader even further. It's an endearing story that promotes environmental wisdom, creates tension when our hero's life is threatened, and provides humor and enjoyment for all readers. Humor counterbalances the factual information presented, and the cartoon illustrations provide a wonderful sense of fun. This is truly a story that is both educational and fun, as well as being visually engaging. SLIMY SLICK is a story that will be read over and over again and passed on to generations, as it is a timeless tale.

Download or read book Latvian English Dictionary written by Leonard Zusne and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2008-07-30 with total page 828 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unabridged work includes a previously distributed DICTIONARY OF LATVIAN PROVERBS, making it unique and more attractive than similar publications. A translating dictionary, like this one, is a practical dictionary that translates words in existing texts. It does not, as a rule, provide descriptions or explanations, nor does it set norms of how words should be spelled. The aim of dictionary users can be either to understand the source language (the language of the headwords) or to translate it into the target language(the language of the translation equivalents). The user’s first language can be either the source language or the target language. This makes for four possible types of interlingual dictionaries (descriptive, prescriptive, or translating). Existing Latvian-English dictionaries indicate that they are intended for users whose first language is Latvian and whose purpose is to translate it into English. This dictionary is intended primarily for users whose first language is English and who wish to understand texts written in Latvian. This, of course, does not preclude Latvian speakers from using it to translate from Latvian into English, i.e., to produce English texts. English-speaking Latvians may, in fact, find it helpful for accurate and natural translation. Other features of this dictionary are: the number of entries(over 106,000), which is more than double that of any other Latvian-English dictionary; the use of American rather than British English; an extensive coverage of technical terms from all fields of science and technology; the comprehensive inclusion of spelling variants; and the inclusion of colloquialisms, common speech words, vulgar terms, slang, barbarisms, selected regionalisms and terms found in folkloric language. The entries of this dictionary were collected from various extant monolingual and bilingual Latvian dictionaries, general and specialized: spelling dictionaries, technical dictionaries, etymological dictionaries, general encyclopedias, periodical literature, and many Latvian speakers. Of the latter, I want to single out the contribution of the late sea captain, Inats Lejnieks. In his time, the captain had commanded full-rigged sailing ships with Latvian crews, and he supplied the Latvian equivalents of the names of sails and principal ropes, spars, and part of the hull. I was fortunate to have captain Lejnieks share his expertise with me as this material was not available anywhere else.

Book excerpt: As life unfolded it was clear to me, /I was BORN TO SERVE God, Family, Country, and Community. So writes Charles R. Gay in this moving recollection of the life of a man, born to sharecroppers in southern Georgia, whose upbringing and rock-solid faith in God and Jesus Christ led him to a life dedicated to helping others. At the age of 14, Charles R. Gay left school to care for his family and their farm when illness left both of his parents bed-ridden. A few years later, despite being excused from the military draft, he answered the call of duty by serving in the U.S. Navy during the Korean War. After twenty years of service in the Navy, Gay returned to his home town to work as a police officer and deputy sheriff. As readers will witness, during each phase of his remarkable life it was his sincere faith in the Lord that kept Charles R. Gay on his true path and showed him that he was born to serve.
