Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the magical time between night and day, when both the sun and the moon are in the sky, a child is born in a little blue house on a hill. And Miu Lan is not just any child, but one who can change into any shape they can imagine. The only problem is they can't decide what to be: A boy or a girl? A bird or a fish? A flower or a shooting star? At school, though, they must endure inquisitive looks and difficult questions from the other children, and they have trouble finding friends who will accept them for who they are. But they find comfort in the loving arms of their mother, who always offers them the same loving refrain: "whatever you dream of / i believe you can be / from the stars in the sky to the fish in the sea." In this captivating, beautifully imagined picture book about gender, identity, and the acceptance of the differences between us, Miu Lan faces many questions about who they are and who they may be. But one thing's for sure: no matter what this child becomes, their mother will love them just the same. Kai Cheng Thom is a writer, performance artist, and psychotherapist in Toronto.

Download or read book Jia written by and published by . This book was released on 2018-08-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part cookbook, part travel journal, Jia! presents the food of the Teoswa people in stories and recipes. The cuisines of modern-day Swatow and Teochew, two neighboring cities in southern China, together known as "Teoswa," are explored alongside the diasporic cuisines of Teoswa communities in Southeast Asia, Europe, and the United States. At its core, Teoswa cuisine emphasizes sourcing excellent ingredients and letting their natural flavors shine and harmonize in thoughtful combinations. Given its ocean-hugging location, seafood is understandably a cornerstone of the Teoswa diet, but Teoswa's beef meatballs, braised fowl, rice noodles, and inventive uses of vegetables are also famous across China. Over the past centuries, waves of Teoswa people arrived in Southeast Asia, bringing their recipes with them. As Teoswa foods evolved to suit local tastes and ingredients, many of them also became iconic national dishes in Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos. The author shares her own Teoswa family story within this larger historical context. Recipes are adapted for an American home kitchen, and range from traditional to modern in six categories: 1) Snacks and Appetizers; 2) Rice & Noodles; 3) Seafood; 4) Meat; 5) Vegetables; and 6) Drinks & Sweets.

Download or read book Anytime Playdate written by Dade Hayes and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2008-05-06 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this eye-opening book, the first to investigate the explosion of the multibillion-dollar preschool entertainment business and its effects on families, Dade Hayes -- an entertainment expert, author, and concerned father -- lifts the veil on the closely guarded process of marketing to the ultra-young and their parents. Like many parents, Dade Hayes grabbed "me time" by plopping his daughter in front of the TV, relaxing while Margot delighted in the sights and sounds of Barney and the Teletubbies. But when Margot got hooked, screaming whenever the TV was turned off, Hayes set out to explore the vast universe of this industry in which preschoolers devour $21 billion worth of entertainment. Going behind the scenes to talk with executives, writers, and marketers who see the value of educational TV, Hayes finds compelling research that watching TV may raise IQs and increase vocabularies. On the other side, he brings in the voices of pediatricians and child psychologists who warn against "babysitter TV" and ask whether "TV trance" is healthy -- in spite of the relaxation that the lull affords exhausted parents -- as recent studies link early television viewing with obesity, attention and cognitive problems, and violence. Along the way, Hayes narrates the fascinating evolution of Nickelodeon's bilingual preschool gamble, Ni Hao, Kai-lan, from an art student's Internet doodles to its final product: an educationally fortified, Dora-inflected, test audience-approved television show. At the show's debut, jittery experts hold their breath as the tweaked and researched Kai-lan faces Mr. Potato Head in the battle for a three-year-old's attention. Anytime Playdate reveals the marketing science of capturing a toddler's attention, examining whether Baby Einstein and its ilk will make babies smarter, or if, conversely, television makes babies passive and uncritical, their imaginations colonized by marketing schemes before they even speak. It tells us why the raucous Dora the Explorer has usurped Blues Clues for preschool primacy, why the Brit hit In the Night Garden won't follow Teletubbies into American tot stardom, and why the comparatively quiet and wholesome Sesame Street has reigned for decades. Hayes vividly portrays the educators, psychologists, executives, parents, and, lest we forget, kids who have shaped the history of children's television, uncovering the tensions between the many personalities, the creative foment that combines story, music, and message in this medium to produce today's almost dizzying array of products and choices. In the end, Hayes gives readers a provocative but balanced portrait of an age in technological transition, and shows that what's at stake in the "Rattle Battle" is nothing less than the character of the next generation.
