Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tomatoes in My Lunchbox is a moving picture book from a debut author about the first day of school, layered with themes about the immigrant experience and the universal experience of feeling out of place. A child, newly arrived in another country, feels displaced, lonely, and a little scared on her first day of school. Her name doesn't sound the way she's used to hearing it. She knows she doesn't fit in. And when she eats her whole tomato for lunch, she can feel her classmates observing her—and not quite understanding her. But sometimes all it takes is one friend, one connection, to bring two worlds together, and gradually the girl, her tomato, and her full name, start to feel at home with her new friends and community. This emotionally sweeping debut picture book by Costantia Manoli, with vibrant art by Magdalena Mora, artfully captures feelings of displacement and the joy that comes from forging new friendships.

Download or read book Ten Tomatoes that Changed the World written by William Alexander and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2022-06-07 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author William Alexander takes readers on a surprisingly twisty journey through the history of the beloved tomato in this fascinating and erudite microhistory. The tomato gets no respect. Never has. Stored in the dustbin of history for centuries, accused of being vile and poisonous, appropriated as wartime propaganda, subjected to being picked hard-green and gassed, even used as a projectile, the poor tomato is the Rodney Dangerfield of foods. Yet, the tomato is the most popular vegetable in America (and, in fact, the world). It holds a place in America's soul like no other vegetable, and few other foods. Each summer, tomato festivals crop up across the country; John Denver had a hit single titled "homegrown Tomatoes;" and the Heinz tomato ketchup bottle, instantly recognizable, is in the Smithsonian. Author William Alexander is on a mission to get tomatoes the respect they deserve. Supported by meticulous research but told in a lively, accessible voice, Ten Tomatoes that Changed the World will seamlessly weave travel, history, humor, and a little adventure (and misadventure) to follow the tomato's trail through history. A fascinating story complete with heroes, con artists, conquistadors and, no surprise, the Mafia, this book is a mouth-watering, informative, and entertaining guide to the good that has captured our hearts for generations.

Download or read book Fat Boy No More written by Marétha Marais and published by Europa Edizioni. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Miller is a fat boy. And he knows it. The bullying at school, the craving for those savoury, greasy, succulent dishes his mother cooks, the athletic look of his sister, ‘Perfect Amelia’: he experiences it all, every day, thanks to his sharp, although sometimes painful self-awareness and perceptiveness. One day, he just has had enough. And he decides to take control of the situation. As Captain James Kirk would say: I am the master of my fate; I am the captain of my soul. Inspired by her own and her friends’ weight loss experiences and the realisation of how little control some children have over their parents’ food choices, the story of Fat Boy no More is the perfect example of ‘show, don’t tell’; a realistic day-to-day narrative in which the reader will observe the growth of an insecure eleven-year-old boy with a passion for Star Trek into a determined, kind, and sensible young man. Sweet, ironic, moving, humorous, and often mouth-watering with its detailed, accurate descriptions of delicious and healthy recipes, Fat Boy no More will capture you at every page with vivid and realistic characters that grow, change, and live. Marétha Marais was born in Pietermaritzburg, KwaZulu-Natal, in 1968. After majoring in Communications and Criminology, she became a secretary at a Consulting Engineering Company. Thirty three years later she still works in the Construction industry as a Bid and Compliance Officer. A prolific reader for the first forty-nine years of her life, she decided, when she turned fifty, to put her communications degree to good use and start writing children’s fiction. Easier said than done – she is forever thankful to Nawaal D at Penguin Random House, who has convinced her not to give up and finish the Creative Writing Short Course. She successfully completed the course, and this has led to an invite from author Mike Nicol and Editor Claire Strombeck to participate in their Masterclass. In one year, she completed her first novel, Fat Boy no More, and is currently busy with the second instalment in the series – Former Fat Boy.
