Download or read book Look at Moi Ploise written by Beck Feiner and published by Allen & Unwin. This book was released on 2024-10-29 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the 1950s to the 2020s, Look at Moi Ploise is a gift book that journeys through the most unforgettable bits of Australian pop culture with both humour and love. Beck Feiner's vibrant illustrations come to life as we cycle through the decades and look back fondly on the people, moments and creations that have helped to shape Australia's cultural identity. There's Bert Newton flashing his pearly whites, the royal wedding of the 1980s (Scott and Charlene's Neighbours nuptials, of course) and Julia Gillard's internet-breaking misogyny speech. Katie Cunningham's side-splitting reviews will spark both memories and conversations that will emphasise how we've evolved as a nation. You may be reminded of that swimming pool or duck cake at your childhood birthday party, admiring Merv Hughes' handlebar moustache flapping in the wind, posing for photos in front of the strangest of Big Things, cheering on the Matildas or finding yourself quoting lines from Kath & Kim. Whether you grew up in Perth or Parramatta, or Australia has become your home in more recent times, there's something in this book for everyone.

Download or read book This Child s Gonna Live written by Sarah E. Wright and published by The Feminist Press at CUNY. This book was released on 2002-05-01 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “[An] exploration of the black experience from a woman’s perspective, anticipating fiction by writers like Toni Morrison and Alice Walker.”—The New York Times Originally published in 1969 to broad critical acclaim, This Child’s Gonna Live is an unsurpassed testament to human endurance in the face of poverty, racism, and despair. Set in a fishing village on Maryland’s Eastern Shore in the 1930s, this story has as its main character the unforgettable Mariah Upshur, a hard-working, sensual, resilient woman, full of hope, and determination despite living in a society that conspires to keep her down. In her mind, she carries on a conversation with Jesus, who, like Mariah herself, is passionate and compassionate, at times funny and resolutely resilient to fatalism. Often compared to Zora Neale Hurston for her lyrical and sure-handed use of local dialect, Wright, like Hurston, powerfully depicts the predicament of poor African American women, who confront the multiple oppressions of class, race, and gender. “In every respect, an impressive achievement. The canon of American folk-epic is enriched by this small masterpiece.”—The New York Times Book Review “It has always been my contention that the Black woman in America will write the greatest of the American novels. For it is the Black woman, forced to survive at the bottom rung of American society . . . who is compelled to survey, by the very extremity of her existence, the depths of the American soul. In reading Sarah Wright’s searing novel, I am convinced that my assessment was correct.”—Rosa Guy, author of The Friends
Download or read book Shoreland written by Ingeborg Lauterstein and published by Ingeborg Lauterstein Books. This book was released on 2005-07-18 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one in Shoreland knows that Liz Plant had been one of the two hundred and fifty thousand young children stolen in occupied countries, part of the Himmler plan for nazification of a select breed of "racially valuable blondes." In 1986 Liz is finally writing about her Hitler School and her escape as the mascot of a troop of elite children. But facts are not enough. In her heart she would always remain a child on the side of a dusty road waving to strangers. A stolen child. She is probing for the truth. In Hitler School she had to forget her first language and her name and became Liese. In Vienna, after the war, nuns in the children's shelter called her little Angel. She turned into Liz, when American Gramp acquired her for his lonely orphan grandson, Chris. She was told to forget German and speak only English. Chris sometimes called her Sis after his dead twin. They became inseparable as they grew up in Shoreland, but Gramp did not live to see them marry. He left Liz the old house by the sea; Chris inherited almost all the money; and Mike, their son, inherited the Plant good looks and a gift as a prankster. She had been lucky, very lucky. Why not leave well enough alone? Chris is enraged when she writes about him. Could writing to find out who she really is be asking for trouble? Mike is at risk. Chapters vanish. Arthur, a helper, intrudes on the landscape of her life as his great house intrudes on the panorama of Shoreland. Mike is assaulted on campus. The violence of the past seems to be catching up with the writer. So does the future when her book comes out. An amazing interview. An escape from Arthur's great news. Mike and his friends have a ticket for her to the Grateful Dead concert. Once more she is swept into a scene teeming with endangered kids in flight from the adult world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The content of this book is based on the Andy Croft's experience of working with children in over 400 UK schools and will provide teachers with ideas, games, examples and models that they can use in the classroom to encourage their children to become writers and readers through the practice of rhyme and rhythm. He strongly believes that you don't have to be 'good at English' to be able to enjoy the music of ordinary speech. Using rhythm and rhyme is a democratic creative act that is equally hard and equally easy for everyone. It has special rules which won't let you reach for the first word that comes into your head. Your words have to fit the pattern. You don't have to write anything down, but you do have to become a writer. And once you have become a writer, you might become a reader...
