Download or read book The Particulars of Peter written by Kelly Conaboy and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2020-12-08 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This might be one of the month’s, if not the year’s, sweetest books — zaniest, too.” ―The Washington Post "A hilarious addition to the dogoir canon.” ―People "Perhaps the greatest love story ever told.” ―Refinery29 "The feel-good book the world needs." —PopSugar From one of the Internet's most original voices, a hilarious journey through the odd corners of obsessive dog ownership and the author's own infatuation with her perfect dog Peter. The author met Peter in the spring of 2017. He -- calm, puppy-eyed, with the heart of a poet and the soul of, also, a poet -- came to her first as a foster. He was unable to stay with his previously assigned foster for reasons that are none of your business, but which we will tell you were related to frequent urination. The rescue needed someone free of the sort of responsibilities that would force her to regularly leave the house for either work or socializing, and a writer was the natural choice. Thus began a love story for the ages. The Particulars of Peter is a funny exploration of the joy found in loving a dog so much it makes you feel like you're going to combust, and the author's potentially codependent relationship with her own sweet dog, Peter. Readers will follow Peter and his owner to Woofstock, "the largest outdoor festival for dogs in North America," and accompany them to lessons in Canine Freestyle, a sport where dogs perform a routine set to music, creating the illusion that they're dancing with their owners. From learning about Peter's DNA, to seeing if dogs can sense the presence of ghosts, The Particulars of Peter will give readers a smart, entertaining respite from the harsh world of humans into the funny little world of dogs. Readers will accompany this lovable duo through exciting trips, lessons, quiet moments of connection, and probably a failure or two. By fusing memoir and infotainment, The Particulars of Peter promises to refresh the perennially popular dog lit category in a scrumptiously bighearted barnstormer of a book.

You CAN Ballroom Dance', I provide the facts so that you can make an informed decision about what is, and is not, possible when it comes to dancing. Whatever the excuse, you CAN dance...and I can prove it! In Section One, the excuses are debunked. A sad fact of the Western world is that many people mistakenly conclude that they can't couple dance because they can't move like Michael Jackson did. But they haven't been taught that ballroom dance requires different skills. Learn the rules, practice a little, and soon you will be dancing around the floor in happy abandon! This section was designed so that the one who wants to dance can give it to the one who doesn't want to dance, along with the words, "Just read the first section. If that doesn't convince you to at least give Couple Dance a try, I'll give you some peace." Section Two: Decision Made. Here I talk about the different dances and how they might be used. You will learn about the different types of lessons and how they are used to help you learn efficiently and quickly. You also learn how to determine if you have an honest studio, and a knowledgeable teacher. This is the meat of the book as it will give you the information, going in, to negotiate with knowledge of what you are getting into. Section Three is like a notebook of information I think it is useful for every student to have. Here you'll learn the difference between a slot, a spot, and a progressive dance. You'll learn a little about foot and room alignments, and why it's important to know these things. I discuss Dance frame, timing, and many other useful topics. Here Is A Preview Of What You'll Learn... How to negotiate effectively with a studio or independent teacher How to overcome objections to learning to Ballroom Dance How to find partners, and ask them to dance How to find the right teacher What the different dances are and how you might use them How the different lessons work together How to become a teacher How to fire a teacher Much, much more! There are no more excuses to delay learning to Ballroom and social dance any longer. 'Yes! You CAN Ballroom Dance' has removed all excuses, except your own fear. But it can do even that, if you let it.

Download or read book Zero to Three written by F. Douglas Brown and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What started out as a way to address dealing with parenting and, in particular, fatherhood, became a series of poems focused on familial roles and situations that are difficult to articulate, even among family members. The poems in Zero to Three mark both the change in the child and in the father, who is also a son himself. The term “zero to three” derives from the developmental period that many clinicians and pediatricians believe is the most fundamental phase for children whose delicate brains are undergoing drastic and formative change. Research also shows that parents undergo formative change alongside their children during this period from conception to toddler age. These poems do not intend to offer a definitive stance on parenting or fatherhood but, rather, to capture an emotional gestational period that extends beyond the womb and exceeds beyond the grave. They celebrate pop culture and family, as well as lament the anguish and frustration of a parent losing his temper or a parent losing a parent. Ultimately, these poems attempt to sing and dance in the fact that parenting is a wonderful mystery to witness and experience.
Download or read book Grace Under Pressure written by Barbara Newman and published by Hal Leonard Corporation. This book was released on 2003 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Limelight). A critic and writer on dance for well over twenty years, Barbara Newman has gone in search of teachers and coaches, directors, choreographers and stagers former dancers who had turned the focus of their own experience on others to explain the state of ballet today. Among leaders of the dance world the author interviewed were Suki Schorer, Helgi Tomasson, Mark Morris, Violette Verdy and 14 other artists whose work she knew and respected, most of them active outside of New York and London. Newman is not interested in dance as an aesthetic abstraction, and the people who answered her questions were not speaking theoretically. On the contrary, her speculation and their responses bring an elusive subject down to earth, illuminating a process that reaches back in history and forward to today, though its dreams are of a world no one can imagine.
