Download or read book Imperial Portugal in the Age of Atlantic Revolutions written by Gabriel Paquette and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the British, French and Spanish Atlantic empires were torn apart in the Age of Revolutions, Portugal steadily pursued reforms to tie its American, African and European territories more closely together. Eventually, after a period of revival and prosperity, the Luso-Brazilian world also succumbed to revolution, which ultimately resulted in Brazil's independence from Portugal. The first of its kind in the English language to examine the Portuguese Atlantic World in the period from 1750 to 1850, this book reveals that despite formal separation, the links and relationships that survived the demise of empire entwined the historical trajectories of Portugal and Brazil even more tightly than before. From constitutionalism to economic policy to the problem of slavery, Portuguese and Brazilian statesmen and political writers laboured under the long shadow of empire as they sought to begin anew and forge stable post-imperial orders on both sides of the Atlantic.

Sam quickly learns that magic is not just for other realms but is a reality on Earth as well. Their first trip since her mother died 18 months earlier, Sam is reclusive and uninterested in her dad's work. Jack, a Bigfoot expert, drags his disbelieving daughter on a field expedition to the Arizona forest, accompanied by his best friend Charlie, an alien hunter, and his three sons: Chris, Tommy, and Eli. Sam soon discovers a cave containing a nest of unknown origin, and upon showing her dad, it’s thought to be evidence of Bigfoot. Charlie dismisses the discovery and spirals out of control, insisting the evidence points is extraterrestrial. In his greed, he sabotages Jack's work, but not before Sam discovers that neither Bigfoot or aliens are responsible for the nest. What lies inside makes Sam a believer in all things magic. Charlie, upon learning the truth about the cave and nest, does everything in his power to capture the elusive creature named Ash, but is met with resistance by the rest of the group. Sam stops at nothing to ensure Ash’s safety and help him return home from the mortal realm while learning to control her newfound powers, and her blossoming feelings for Tommy.

Download or read book The Train of Lost Things written by Ammi-Joan Paquette and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A magical story about a boy's love for his dying father and his journey to the mythic Train of Lost Things, where beloved lost objects are rescued and protected until they can be returned. Perfect for fans of The Phantom Tollbooth, The Bridge to Terabithia, and Lost in the Sun. Marty cherishes the extra-special birthday present his dad gave him -- a jean jacket on which he's afixed numerous buttons -- because it's a tie to his father, who is sick and doesn't have much time left. So when his jacket goes missing, Marty is devastated. When his dad tells him the story of the Train of Lost Things, a magical train that flies through the air collecting objects lost by kids, Marty is sure that the train must be real, and that if he can just find the train and get his jacket back, he can make his dad better as well. It turns out that the train is real -- and it's gone out of control! Instead of just collecting things that have been accidentally lost, the train has been stealing things. Along with Dina and Star, the girls he meets aboard the train, Marty needs to figure out what's going on and help set it right. As he searches for his jacket, and for a way to fix the train, Marty begins to wonder whether he's looking for the right things after all. And he realizes that sometimes you need to escape reality in order to let it sink in. In this achingly beautiful adventure, it is the power of memories, and the love between a father and son, that ultimately save the day. Praise for The Train of Lost Things: "Paquette writes with compassion and a childlike sense of belief, and Marty's journey--both personal and fantastic--will speak to readers on many levels." --Booklist "Marty's inner dialogue will appeal to readers of Gordon Korman, Jeff Kinney, and Dav Pilkey." --School Library Journal "Marty's pain at the imminent loss of his father is keenly felt, and Paquette deftly balances the emotional weight of his fear and grief with his fantasy journey on a train flying through the universe." --Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "Kids everywhere can relate to the sorrow of losing a cherished item, giving this narrated adventure story a wide appeal [and] readers will connect with the unconditional love and hope that exists between parent and child." --School Library Connection
