Download or read book The Reporter Regression written by Barry Oliver and published by AB Discovery. This book was released on 2020-12-10 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tim Lansing is a reporter running for his life. After exposing the powerful Mansford mafia family and nearly (but not quite) sending its leader, Julius Mansford to prison, Mr. Lansing must run from town to town barely a step ahead of his hunters. Tim’s latest move lands him in the small college town of Centerville, home to a drug rehabilitation center called Forever Free. The last thing Tim wants is to draw attention to himself, but the investigative reporter in him cannot resist looking into stories of missing persons last seen admitted to Forever Free. He expects to find the center does not offer a 100% cure as advertised, but rather the missing clients have returned to their drug use and either died or moved away. The rehab Director Donald Miles, however, has other plans for the meddling reporter and decides to make a “therapeutic” intervention. Tim wakes up one day in the body of a 15-month-old baby; a toddler with the charming nickname of Timmy Turtle, living at a daycare center—Buttons & Blocks. Life in diapers, pacifiers, bottles, and cribs is quite a radical change for the 35-year-old reporter, but Tim decides to play along until he can figure out just what the heck happened to him, an event he has no memory of. Through careful observation and well-placed questions, Tim is able to determine the relation between Forever Free and Buttons & Blocks—they are transforming adult drug addicts into infants and toddlers with little or no memory of their previous lives. Tim is able to play along, that is, until he is introduced to a lovely family that wants to adopt him. He decides it is time to escape. But there is a problem. Assuming Tim can figure out how to return to his adult self, he will immediately be hunted by the mafia again. Does he risk a life on the run that will ultimately end in his murder, or does he choose the life of Timmy Turtle with two great parents and adoring siblings? Forces beyond his control will force Tim to take action, and neither Tim’s life nor the world of Buttons & Blocks will ever be the same again.

Book excerpt: In her new book, Jane Katch explores the painful problems of bullying, teasing, and exclusion. Why, she wonders, does a young child, just becoming aware of the existence of the group, feel such a strong need to keep another child out? And is it possible to teach children to create social groups that aren't defined by excluding others? With her acute eye and deft pen, Katch watches her class of four- and five-year-olds begin to form exclusionary groups and tells us what happens as she tries to intervene. Talking with her brother, who teased her as a child; with high school kids; and, as always, with her class, Katch comes to new understandings of why some kids bully and scapegoat, how other kids get through the experience, and how she as a teacher might intervene. They Don't Like Me is at once a fascinating, absorbing look into the social lives of children and a book for teachers and parents who are trying to understand how to prevent exclusion and how to support children who are being teased and bullied.
