Download or read book A Pair of Schoolgirls A School Story written by Angela Brazil and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A Pair of Schoolgirls” is a 1912 fictional story by English author Angela Brazil. It follows the story of Dorothy and the trails she faces being a young girl at an all-girls day school in England. Another entertaining and beautifully-illustrated school girls' tale by one of the creators of the genre, this book is highly recommended for young girls and lovers of the schoolgirl fiction genre, and it is not to be missed by those who have read and enjoyed others works by this author. Angela Brazil (1868 – 1947) was an English author most famous for being one of the first writers of "modern schoolgirls' stories". Her stories were presented from the characters' point of view and were written primarily as entertainment rather than moral instruction. During the first half of the 20th century, Brazil published nearly 50 such books, with the vast majority being set in English boarding schools. Brazil's work had a significant influence on changing the nature of fiction for girls. Her charters were chiefly young females, active, independent, and aware. Brazil's books were often considered to be immoral and deviant, leading to their being burned or banned by many Headteachers in girls schools across Britain. Other notable works by this author include: “The School in the Forest” (1944), “Three Terms at Uplands” (1945), “The School on the Loch” (1946). Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.

Book excerpt: Do you feel awkward at networking events? Do you wonder what your date really thinks of you? Do you wish you could decode people? You need to learn the science of people. As a human behavior hacker, Vanessa Van Edwards created a research lab to study the hidden forces that drive us. And she’s cracked the code. In Captivate, she shares shortcuts, systems, and secrets for taking charge of your interactions at work, at home, and in any social situation. These aren’t the people skills you learned in school. This is the first comprehensive, science backed, real life manual on how to captivate anyone—and a completely new approach to building connections. Just like knowing the formulas to use in a chemistry lab, or the right programming language to build an app, Captivate provides simple ways to solve people problems. You’ll learn, for example… · How to work a room: Every party, networking event, and social situation has a predictable map. Discover the sweet spot for making the most connections. · How to read faces: It’s easier than you think to speed-read facial expressions and use them to predict people’s emotions. · How to talk to anyone: Every conversation can be memorable—once you learn how certain words generate the pleasure hormone dopamine in listeners. When you understand the laws of human behavior, your influence, impact, and income will increase significantly. What’s more, you will improve your interpersonal intelligence, make a killer first impression, and build rapport quickly and authentically in any situation—negotiations, interviews, parties, and pitches. You’ll never interact the same way again.

Download or read book Adoring Outlander written by Valerie Estelle Frankel and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is behind Outlander fever--the hit television drama's popularity? Is it author Diana Gabaldon's teasing posts on social media? Is it the real history reimagined? The highly emotional melodrama? Or is it the take-charge heroine and the sweet hero in a kilt? One of the show's biggest draws is its multigenre appeal. Gabaldon--whose Outlander novels form the basis of the series--has called it science fiction, fantasy, romance, historical fiction and military fiction, depending on her audience. This collection of new essays explores the series as a romance, a ghost story, an epic journey, a cozy mystery, a comedy of manners, a gothic thriller and a feminist answer to Game of Thrones, and considers the source of its broad appeal.

Download or read book A Pair of Schoolgirls written by Angela Brazil and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-01-23 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: IT was precisely five minutes past eleven on the first day of the autumn term, and Avondale College, which for seven whole weeks had been lonely and deserted, and given over to the tender mercies ofpaperhangers, painters, and charwomen, once more presented its wonted aspect of life and bustle.The reopening was a very important event in the opinion of everybody concerned, partly because itmarked the beginning of a fresh school year, and partly because the building had been altered andenlarged, many changes made in the curriculum, and many new names added to the already long listin the register. Three hundred and eighty-seven pupils had assembled that morning in the greatlecture hall, the largest number on record at the College; five additional classes had been formed, and there were six extra mistresses. At the eleven o'clock interval the place seemed swarming withgirls; they thronged the staircase and passages, filled the pantry, blocked the dressing-rooms, andoverflowed into the playground and the gymnasium-girls of all sorts and descriptions, from theten-year-olds who had just come up (rather solemn and overawed) from the Preparatory to thoseelect and superior damsels of seventeen who were studying for their Matriculation.By the empty stove in the Juniors' Common Room stood half a dozen "betwixt-and-betweens", whose average age probably worked out at fourteen and a quarter, though Mavie Morris was agiantess compared with little Ruth Harmon. The six heads were bent together in closest proximity, and the six tongues were particularly active, for after the long summer holidays there was such a vastamount to talk about that it seemed almost impossible to discuss all the interesting items of newswith sufficient rapidity."The old Coll. looks no end," said Grace Russell. "It's so smart and spanky now-one hardlyknows it! Pictures in the classrooms, flowers on the chimneypieces, a stained glass window in thelecture hall, busts on brackets all along the corridor wall, and the studio floor polished! Every singleplace has been done up from top to bottom.""I'd like it better if it didn't smell so abominably of new paint," objected Noëlle Kennedy. "WhenI opened the studio door, the varnish stuck to my fingers. However, the school certainly looks muchnicer. Why, even the book cupboard has been repapered.""That's because you splashed ink on the wall last term. Don't you remember how fearfully crossMiss Hardy was about it?""Rather! She insisted that I'd done it on purpose, and couldn't and wouldn't believe it was anaccident. Well, thank goodness we've done with her! I'm glad teachers don't move up with theirforms.
