Book excerpt: An orphan encounters greed, deception, and murder when she goes to live with a new family Despite her name, Princess O’Shea is not a spoiled brat. When her father’s death leaves her an orphan, she goes to live with her old uncle, Slater, and is horrified by what she finds. She knew the O’Sheas were a family of scoundrels, but Slater and his awful brood are the laziest bunch of nitwits she has ever met. From her moronic cousin Twig to the daffy Peet, every one of Princess’s new relations is driven by greed, lust, and a desperate fear of work. The only thing holding them together is the promise of their father’s fortune—and Uncle Slater is not long for this world. When Princess finds Slater lying facedown on his bedroom floor, she assumes he’s sleeping off a bender. In fact, he will never wake again. His bourbon was poisoned, and if Princess isn’t careful, she’ll be the next O’Shea to die.

Book excerpt: This book offers an intimate and personal look at what China's poverty alleviation has meant for individuals. The dramatic progress in reducing poverty in China over the past three decades is well known. According to the World Bank, more than 500 million people were lifted out of extreme poverty as China’s poverty rate fell from 88 percent in 1981 to 6.5 percent in 2012. Behind this statistic are the millions of families in rural China who have moved from extreme poverty to a more comfortable way of life in modern China. This is the story of four generations of one such family. Grandma Zhen and her eight children have faced the hardship of war, the great famine of 1958-1960, the Cultural Revolution of 1967-1977 and Opening-up and Reform. They have had to adjust to a rapidly changing culture that has affected all aspects of their lives, including marriage, the one-child policy, and education. Through incredible endurance and hard work, they have not only survived, but thrived. This book will be of value to anthropologists, developmental economists, sinophiles, and more.
Download or read book I Killed the Golden Goose written by Rasal and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2021-07-11 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are all that. A summation of the could haves. A result of the choices not made, as much as of the choices made. The 80’s. An era before India opened herself up to possibilities. An era of constraints and deprivation. Individualism, private spaces, essence and excesses were all largely unheard of. For the 80’s kids, this also meant limited choices and austerity of dreams. Choices were mostly a lack of options, or those made for them by others: clothes, television channels, education, partner, career…, etc. Like every other child in his school album, he wore the same smile and the same unimaginative clothes rolled out by the neighbourhood tailor. He continued mimicking others’ smiles and then their career choices too. Until one day when he realised how ill-fitting his garbs were. How his true smiles remained hesitant to be completed. How deep that void had grown in him. And then, the jigsaw of a perfect-looking life went into scramble mode. An unexpected divorce, an indefinite sabbatical, darkness, questions with no answers. An urge to go back to the comfort of the familiar versus that desire to experience the unknown. End of it, most questions were answered. The rest died or were killed. The void filled, and smiles completed. He then wrote poems, stories and a book about it. About how he made unforced choices, first time in four decades. About how he killed the golden goose, against all proverbial advice.

Download or read book The Golden Goose written by L. Leslie Brooke and published by 東西文坊. This book was released on 2019-04-17 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 圖畫書是西洋插圖文學的一種流行形式。圖畫書中的插圖使用了油畫、水彩或鉛筆畫等。西洋的圖畫書，有些針對幼兒使用非常基本的語言，用於幫助孩童提高閱讀技能，用的是兒童可以理解但不一定會閱讀的詞彙書寫的。出於這個原因，圖畫書往往在兒童的生活中有兩個功能：首先由成年人唸給給幼兒聽，然後兒童一旦開始學習讀就漸能自己閱讀。不過，有些圖畫書則是為青少年而編寫的，採用更適合其年齡的主題與語言。 英文的童話書，對國人而言，其遣詞用字其實蠻適合初級或中級的英文學習者拿來做為進修的閱讀材料。再加上拜科技進步之賜，許多電腦及行動裝置的閱讀應用程式已提供有「文字轉語音（TTS）」的自動朗讀功能，其話質表現日益精進，已逐漸貼近專業的錄音品質，【Google Play圖書app】就是其中佼佼者。邊看圖，邊學英文，再加上「有聲書」的效能，一舉三得，如此的閱讀方式可謂人生一大樂事！
