While the level of toxicity varies from each plant, all are considered deadly in one way or another to wild animals, family pets, and even humans. With its colorful, easy-to-read format, Plants That Can’t Kill will introduce readers to what these plants look like, smell like, feel like, and sometimes even taste like. Fun facts, interesting tidbits, and history will combine to teach gardeners where these types of plants can be found, how poisonous each one is, and whether these plants are still okay to have in their gardens or if they should be gotten rid of immediately. Plants featured include many common and attractive species you may receive in bouquets or even decorate your homes with, including daffodils, irises, tulips, jasmine, witch hazel, mistletoe, poinsettias, buttercups, marigolds, and even fruits and vegetables like cherries, rhubarb, and some tomatoes.
Download or read book God Land written by Lyz Lenz and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-19 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Will resonate with any readers interested in understanding American landscapes where white, evangelical Christianity dominates both politics and culture.” —Publishers Weekly In the wake of the 2016 election, Lyz Lenz watched as her country and her marriage were torn apart by the competing forces of faith and politics. A mother of two, a Christian, and a lifelong resident of middle America, Lenz was bewildered by the pain and loss around her—the empty churches and the broken hearts. What was happening to faith in the heartland? From drugstores in Sydney, Iowa, to skeet shooting in rural Illinois, to the mega churches of Minneapolis, Lenz set out to discover the changing forces of faith and tradition in God’s country. Part journalism, part memoir, God Land is a journey into the heart of a deeply divided America. Lenz visits places of worship across the heartland and speaks to the everyday people who often struggle to keep their churches afloat and to cope in a land of instability. Through a thoughtful interrogation of the effects of faith and religion on our lives, our relationships, and our country, God Land investigates whether our divides can ever be bridged and if America can ever come together. “God Land, Lyz Lenz’s much-anticipated debut book, is a marvel. Not only is it a window into the middle America so many like to stereotype but fail to fully understand in all of its complexity, but it mixes reportage, memoir, and gorgeous prose so seamlessly I wanted to know how she did it.” —Sarah Weinman, author of The Real Lolita

Book excerpt: A Shakespeare-loving criminologist investigates a tragic case of murder in a “fast-paced tale that gets both the intellect and the heart racing” (Louise Penny, author of Still Life and Dead Cold). A Halifax criminologist, Rosalind has an unquenchable love of drama. Perhaps that’s why she continues to work for the cranky private investigator McBride. Over the years, their association has led her from one sordid foray to another in the world of crime. But when real-world drama gets to be too much, she escapes into the world of theater. Lately Ros has been helping a company of local actors put on a small production of Hamlet. She finds the poetic language a perfect distraction from her job . . . until uncanny parallels between life and art become too unnerving to ignore. When environmental lawyer Peter King suddenly, his son Daniel suspects murder. As Roz and McBride delve deeper into the case, it becomes all too clear that there are those who will stop at nothing to ensure their foul deeds stay buried.
Download or read book Pioneer Street written by Thomas Lisenbee and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever wonder what your parents were like before you got to know them? When you were a kid, did you ever long for someone to tell you who you really were? Then meet Preston Stoner. The year is 2004, and he is a somewhat bemused fifty-eight-year-old Nebraskan living in exile on Pioneer Street in Red Hook, Brooklyn, when his past abruptly reasserts itself into his life. Orphaned at five and reawakened by memories of death and betrayal often so faint as to be almost nonexistent, this devoted husband and father shares the dilemma of every saint, sinner, wise man, fool, or dullard who has spent the better part of an adult life pretending the early events of one’s childhood doesn’t matter. Bestirred by equal portions of courage and fear, born of love and contempt, this novel invites the reader to come along for the ride as events contrast back and forth between Preston’s inalterable, virtually unknowable childhood past in Beatrice, Nebraska, and his painfully all-too-knowable, somewhat-humdrum, somewhat-chaotic present-day life in Brooklyn.
