Download or read book Homophones and Homographs written by and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-11-01 with total page 861 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This expanded fourth edition defines and cross-references 9,040 homophones and 2,133 homographs (up from 7,870 and 1,554 in the 3rd ed.). As the most comprehensive compilation of American homophones (words that sound alike) and homographs (look-alikes), this latest edition serves well where even the most modern spell-checkers and word processors fail--although rain, reign, and rein may be spelled correctly, the context in which these words may appropriately be used is not obvious to a computer.

Download or read book All Is Not LOST written by Shannon Kenny Carbonell and published by Greenleaf Book Group. This book was released on 2021-03-16 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All Is Not LOST is the sad, funny, self-effacing yet soul-bearing story of what happened when one woman set aside a lifelong dream in favor of her kids, only to find herself battling her own ego and unfulfilled ambition. This is the memoir of former working actress Shannon Kenny Carbonell, and her own bittersweet account of the journey she undertook to reconcile her growing feelings of failure and the sudden loss of her identity. Shannon—wife of actor Nestor Carbonell of LOST, Bates Motel, and The Morning Show fame— knew she was making the better choice for her, no matter how painful, when she decided on full-time motherhood over her career. But little did she know that shortly after her family moved to Oahu, Hawaii, while Nestor shot LOST, Shannon would find herself desperate to feed the part of her that was suddenly starved of creativity and accomplishment. Just like the LOST survivors, she had crashed on an island that would test her, heal her, and surround her with the people who would eventually show her the way home.

Download or read book A Child Of The King written by Patricia Klinger Schrope and published by Author House. This book was released on 2007-05-08 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bernie Siegel, M.D. author Love, Magic & Mud Pies writes “This is a book with a heart. We who have not lived the experience are tourists and can not understand. A Child of the King shares the life of a native who survived the wounds related to the death of her child from cancer and shows us how we can heal and turn charcoal into a diamond under the pressure of life. We are all wounded and so can learn from Pat Schrope’s life and experience how to survive, ultimately thrive and learn that love is the only thing of permanence.” I have long said that it would be fine with me if my obituary someday would read simply, Pat Schrope, Mother. The word defines me, and Mothering is what I have done best in my life. Even while addressing my dog I often say, “Come to The Mother” or “The Mother loves you.” I am, above all, a mother. My world was shattered when my daughter, Tracy, contracted a cancer despicable enough to invade a child. Four years later, at age ten, the disease claimed my little girl. Thank God I was still a mother and nevertheless could sweetly embrace and cleave to my youngest daughter, then only eight. Tracy’s story was begun as a loving reminiscence for her little sister. I wanted us to remember EVERYTHING. I wanted us to be able to celebrate and preserve Tracy with these words. After awhile I began to see an opportunity to offer help and inspiration to many others who are dealt illnesses and worse, the loss of their dear children. I realized that I was uniquely qualified to share much in regard to what helped us get through it. Further, we were given the way to transcend the sorrow and to after all, endure. A Child of the King is not always sad. It is quite naturally a heartwarming story that will reveal how we coped with tragedies in our lives. In the midst of turmoil we liberally sprinkled fun, joy, delight and diversion. Tracy was like a comedienne who could laugh in the face of adversity. I promise that she will lift your spirit and transform you if you let her come into your heart. To God be the glory-great things He hath done!
