Book excerpt: "Middle school readers will easily relate to the situational humor and school life, but everyone should read this book for its message. The Bubble Wrap Boy is perfect for fans of R.J. Palacio’s Wonder and will be an excellent addition to any library or classroom."-VOYA Charlie Han’s troubles are much bigger than he is. At school he’s branded an outsider, a loser—the tiny kid from the Chinese takeout. His only ally is Sinus Sedgely, a kid with a lower-level reputation than Charlie himself. Life at home isn’t much better. His dad is more skilled with a wok than he is with words, and his mom is suffocating the life out of Charlie, worried about his every move. But when a new passion leads Charlie to the mother of all confrontations, he finds his real mom has been hiding a massive secret. A secret that while shocking, might actually lead Charlie to feeling ten feet tall. The Bubble Wrap Boy is a funny and inspiring novel about friendship, family, and one undersized boy's ability to think BIG. "Both laugh-out-loud funny and heartbreaking...In the fast-growing bullying genre, Charlie's story stands out. This isn't a kid who will do anything to join the cool clique. This is a story about staying true to yourself and following your passion."-Kirkus Reviews "Earle excels at showing personal growth in the characters, and it is gratifying to observe the believable evolution of Sinus’s and Charlie’s parents. VERDICT Family drama with a solid mix of action, adventure, and humor."-SLJ "Charlie is a character to root for. He is witty and perceptive and has a secret weapon in his best friend, Sinus Sedgely....[The Bubble Wrap Boy is] exciting to read."-Booklist "Charlie's amusing sarcasm masks a vulnerability that will resonate with anyone who has felt like an outsider. The humiliation of being the butt of a joke is sensitively rendered, as is Charlie's slow reclamation of his pride in this witty, true-to-life story."-Publishers Weekly

Download or read book The Brand Bubble written by John Gerzema and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-11-03 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to use brands to gain and sustain competitive advantage Companies today face a dilemma in marketing. The tried-and-true formulas to create sales and market share behind brands are becoming irrelevant and losing traction with consumers. In this book, Gerzema and LeBar offer credible evidence--drawn from a detailed analysis of a decade's worth of brand and financial data using Y&R's Brand Asset Valuator (BAV), the largest database of brands in the world--that business is riding on yet another bubble that is ready to burst--a brand bubble. While most managers still see metrics like trust and awareness as the backbone of how brands are built, Gerzema asserts they're dead wrong--these metrics do not add to increased asset value. In fact, by following them, they actually hasten the declining value of their brands. Using a five-stage model, The Brand Bubble reveals how today's successful brands--and tomorrow's--have an insatiable appetite for creativity and change. These brands offer consumers a palpable sense of movement and direction thanks to a powerful "energized differentiation." Gerzema reveals how brands with energized differentiation achieve better financial performance than traditional brands have. Plus, Gerzema helps readers develop energized differentiation in their own brands, creating consumer-centric and sustainable organizations.

Download or read book My Bubble Wrap Girl written by Becky Meechan and published by Strategic Book Publishing. This book was released on 2012-12 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My book is based on my daughter Sofia's fight for life. Sofia was born at only 24 weeks, weighing 1 pound, 8 ounces, and was given very little chance of survival. Throughout Sofia's time in hospital, I kept a journal of her daily battles. I recount my own feelings of despair and helplessness, and I reflect on our time since Sofia's discharge from hospital. Sofia went on to battle various organ failures; major heart and eye surgery; severe anaemia due to her inability to make her own blood, which resulted in multiple blood transfusions; lumbar punctures; septicaemia; oxygen starvation and bleeding on the brain; chronic lung disease and continual resuscitation. Within months of Sofia being discharged from hospital, I suffered a breakdown that led to leaving my career on the grounds of ill health and declaring myself bankrupt. Sofia is my inspiration. For someone so tiny and fragile who could fit into the palm of my hand when she was born, she has given me strength and a reason to live. She has taught me the true meaning of the power of love, and she has shown me the strength of the bond that exists between a mother and her child.I wanted Sofia to grow up knowing how exceptional she is and just how proud of her I am, and that through her sheer determination to live she gave me the courage to face my fears and nightmares and to move forward. Becky Meechan grew up in a small town in Staffordshire, England. She is a former forensic scientist, an expert in the field of DNA interpretation. Publisher's website: http: //sbpra.com/BeckyMeecha

Download or read book The Hoarder in You written by Robin Zasio and published by Rodale Books. This book was released on 2012-11-13 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all have treasured possessions—a favorite pair of shoes, a much-beloved chair, an ever-expanding record collection. But sometimes, this emotional attachment to our belongings can spiral out of control and culminate into a condition called compulsive hoarding. From hobbyists and collectors to pack rats and compulsive shoppers—it is close to impossible for hoarders to relinquish their precious objects, even if it means that stuff takes over their lives and their homes. According to psychologist Dr. Robin Zasio, our fascination with hoarding stems from the fact that most of us fall somewhere on the hoarding continuum. Even though it may not regularly interfere with our everyday lives, to some degree or another, many of us hoard. The Hoarder In You provides practical advice for decluttering and organizing, including how to tame the emotional pull of acquiring additional things, make order out of chaos by getting a handle on clutter, and create an organizational system that reduces stress and anxiety. Dr. Zasio also shares some of the most serious cases of hoarding that she's encountered, and explains how we can learn from these extreme examples—no matter where we are on the hoarding continuum.
