Book excerpt: In the late 1700s a little red fox and the inhabitants of a small Muscogee Creek village share a pleasant mountain valley along the Flint River in west central Georgia. The story of Strong Fox is reminiscent of oral tradition stories told to Creek Indian children long ago. Such stories served to entertain while also teaching valuable lessons learned by observing and respecting the ways of animals. Fox has learned to survive by using his wits, and while hiding just outside the village awaiting opportunities to steal an easy meal, he has also learned something from observing People. Fox's surprising knowledge enables him to have a profound effect on one young boy and through him the entire village. As in the tradition of our ancestors, Strong Fox serves to entertain while inspiring children to face difficulties in their lives by focusing on their strengths, rather than their weaknesses.

Book excerpt: This is a story about a warrior of the People, the Dakota nation. After extensive research, Gary Dallmann chose to write a story that recounts the exploits of White Fox, a warrior who was elevated to chief of the Dakota nation at the young age of twenty eight. As chief, he faced many challenges. This kind, intelligent man proved to be the right choice since he had the welfare of his people paramount in his mind. This is also a gripping tale of misplaced revenge against White Fox by Broken Face, a fierce warrior of the Tree People. His obsession ended the lives of many warriors. Worry over a demented enemy would have been sufficient to age a seasoned chief but to make things worse White Fox's spirit helper sent a message warning him of a dangerous and seemingly demonic pack of wolves invading the Dakota hunting grounds. The wolves were killing indiscriminately and their evil sport was not restricted to animals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A moving account of resilience, hope, fear and mortality, and how these things resonate in our lives, by actor and advocate Michael J. Fox. The entire world knows Michael J. Fox as Marty McFly, the teenage sidekick of Doc Brown in Back to the Future; as Alex P. Keaton in Family Ties; as Mike Flaherty in Spin City; and through numerous other movie roles and guest appearances on shows such as The Good Wife and Curb Your Enthusiasm. Diagnosed at age 29, Michael is equally engaged in Parkinson’s advocacy work, raising global awareness of the disease and helping find a cure through The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research, the world’s leading non-profit funder of PD science. His two previous bestselling memoirs, Lucky Man and Always Looking Up, dealt with how he came to terms with the illness, all the while exhibiting his iconic optimism. His new memoir reassesses this outlook, as events in the past decade presented additional challenges. In No Time Like the Future: An Optimist Considers Mortality, Michael shares personal stories and observations about illness and health, aging, the strength of family and friends, and how our perceptions about time affect the way we approach mortality. Thoughtful and moving, but with Fox’s trademark sense of humor, his book provides a vehicle for reflection about our lives, our loves, and our losses. Running through the narrative is the drama of the medical madness Fox recently experienced, that included his daily negotiations with the Parkinson’s disease he’s had since 1991, and a spinal cord issue that necessitated immediate surgery. His challenge to learn how to walk again, only to suffer a devastating fall, nearly caused him to ditch his trademark optimism and “get out of the lemonade business altogether.” Does he make it all of the way back?

Download or read book How to Tame a Fox and Build a Dog written by Lee Alan Dugatkin and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2019-04-14 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tucked away in Siberia, there are furry, four-legged creatures with wagging tails and floppy ears that are as docile and friendly as any lapdog. But, despite appearances, these are not dogs—they are foxes. They are the result of the most astonishing experiment in breeding ever undertaken—imagine speeding up thousands of years of evolution into a few decades. In 1959, biologists Dmitri Belyaev and Lyudmila Trut set out to do just that, by starting with a few dozen silver foxes from fox farms in the USSR and attempting to recreate the evolution of wolves into dogs in real time in order to witness the process of domestication. This is the extraordinary, untold story of this remarkable undertaking. Most accounts of the natural evolution of wolves place it over a span of about 15,000 years, but within a decade, Belyaev and Trut’s fox breeding experiments had resulted in puppy-like foxes with floppy ears, piebald spots, and curly tails. Along with these physical changes came genetic and behavioral changes, as well. The foxes were bred using selection criteria for tameness, and with each generation, they became increasingly interested in human companionship. Trut has been there the whole time, and has been the lead scientist on this work since Belyaev’s death in 1985, and with Lee Dugatkin, biologist and science writer, she tells the story of the adventure, science, politics, and love behind it all. In How to Tame a Fox, Dugatkin and Trut take us inside this path-breaking experiment in the midst of the brutal winters of Siberia to reveal how scientific history is made and continues to be made today. To date, fifty-six generations of foxes have been domesticated, and we continue to learn significant lessons from them about the genetic and behavioral evolution of domesticated animals. How to Tame a Fox offers an incredible tale of scientists at work, while also celebrating the deep attachments that have brought humans and animals together throughout time.

The Fox Aviators were a brave and unique group of foxes who lived in a huge, colorful forest. The sun danced through the trees, making patterns on the ground with light and dark. Everyone thought the forest was a heaven because it was so peaceful and beautiful. One thing that made the Fox Aviators different from other foxes was that they knew how to fly. With a lot of creativity and love for their home, the foxes made wings out of broad, strong leaves and flexible, strong twigs that they found in the forest. The foxes could fly through the air and stay above the trees where they lived thanks to these amazing natural engineering feats. As good people, the Fox Aviators learned to fly because they had taken on the important job of protecting their beloved forest from harm from the outside world, especially people. They had seen for themselves how people could damage their home by cutting down trees and throwing off the ecosystem's delicate balance. It was important to them to keep an eye on their forest so that all living things could live together in peace. Every day, the foxes patrolled the skies, keeping a close eye on the ground and the edges of the forest for signs of danger. They were the guards of their realm, always alert and ready to act to protect the peace and beauty of their surroundings. Some were scouts, quick and agile, darting through the trees to find out what was going on. Others were planners, smart and careful, planning the best way to keep everyone safe. The Fox Aviators were more than just guardians; they stood for the strength of the forest and the chance to live in balance with nature. They showed that everyone, no matter how small, could make a big difference by being creative, brave, and working together. They had both exciting and important things to do in their lives. They loved flying and were responsible for someone else. The Fox Aviators did well in the forest, where the sun and moon kept an eye on them. Their story showed how strong friendship can be and how powerful nature is. They weren't just people who lived in the forest; they were its aviators, champions, and defenders, and as long as they flew through the skies, the forest would remain a treasure to be kept for future generations. Chapter 2: Why We Need To Step In. In the middle of a bright, sunny forest, where every leaf sparkled like an emerald in the soft light of the sky, Flynn, a fox with a coat as red as the setting sun and determined eyes, was getting the Fox Aviators ready for a big task. There weren't any regular foxes running around on the forest floor. These were unique foxes that could fly through the air. Flynn spoke with a strong, resonant voice, "We must act quickly to make sure our home stays safe." The sun was rising higher, painting the sky gold and orange. The Fox Aviators listened carefully, each with its own unique and colorful wings made from leaves and twigs from the forest. They knew how serious the situation was; their home, a peaceful and beautiful natural haven, was in danger. As the foxes gathered, the air was thick with excitement. They were a diverse group, but they all wanted to protect their forest. Bella was the team's expert navigator, and her wings were a colorful mosaic of autumn leaves. Max was the youngest and most excited member, and his wings were green and fresh like new growth. And Luna was the calm and wise strategist, and her wings were as silver as the moonlight. The Fox Aviators, who were known for being brave and smart, were ready for a task that would require them to be quiet, accurate, and work together. As Flynn explained the plan, they would have to check out the area, learn more about the people, and figure out what they were doing. They checked their wings to make sure they were safe and ready to fly. The energy in the air around them showed how dedicated and brave they were. The Fox Aviators were more than just a group; they looked out for the forest. Flynn looked at his team with pride as they got ready to take off. They were ready for any challenges that lay ahead because they were all working together to protect the forest home's beauty and sacredness. Chapter 3: Getting the Group Ready
