Download or read book Mysterious Realms written by Stephanie Jones and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2020-02-06 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The naïve though rather fumbling Eddie Bear and the smart and feisty Micki MacVitie share a comfortable life in the Inner Hebrides of Scotland. Together they face a healthy dose of adventure, frequently resulting in dangerous situations. This charming collection recounts the escapades of a cast-off old teddy bear and a lively, black-and-white Highland cat and portrays their peculiar adventures in the realms of mystery and fantasy. Journey with these extraordinary friends to Darkest Outer Pongolia, where a sinister hotel with a strange layout and stranger host provide the pair with some unusual hospitality. On beautiful Shuttle Island, site of a GMO research facility, Eddie and Micki uncover the terrible fate awaiting many guests of the so-called resort and come close to permanently parting ways. Closer to home, the two venture into the countryside, where a seemingly innocent camping holiday turns into a hazardous, but rehabilitative, expedition. And in their own neighborhood, Eddie is transported up a beam of light and into a retrospection of his life. Everything is unexpected, anything can happen, and nothing is as it seems to be. Surprises, humor, and loyalty are common currency, and they lead the way to a place where things do work out in the end – a place where a few choccy-biccies and several cups of tea can cure a multitude of ills.

Download or read book The Cult of Smart written by Fredrik deBoer and published by All Points Books. This book was released on 2020-08-04 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named one of Vulture’s Top 10 Best Books of 2020! Leftist firebrand Fredrik deBoer exposes the lie at the heart of our educational system and demands top-to-bottom reform. Everyone agrees that education is the key to creating a more just and equal world, and that our schools are broken and failing. Proposed reforms variously target incompetent teachers, corrupt union practices, or outdated curricula, but no one acknowledges a scientifically-proven fact that we all understand intuitively: Academic potential varies between individuals, and cannot be dramatically improved. In The Cult of Smart, educator and outspoken leftist Fredrik deBoer exposes this omission as the central flaw of our entire society, which has created and perpetuated an unjust class structure based on intellectual ability. Since cognitive talent varies from person to person, our education system can never create equal opportunity for all. Instead, it teaches our children that hierarchy and competition are natural, and that human value should be based on intelligence. These ideas are counter to everything that the left believes, but until they acknowledge the existence of individual cognitive differences, progressives remain complicit in keeping the status quo in place. This passionate, voice-driven manifesto demands that we embrace a new goal for education: equality of outcomes. We must create a world that has a place for everyone, not just the academically talented. But we’ll never achieve this dream until the Cult of Smart is destroyed.
