A Circus Day Adventure For Emma and Jake by Mary Ann Barker Pdf

“A CIRCUS DAY ADVENTURE FOR EMMA AND JAKE” Having now experienced the thrill and success of my 1st edition children’s book “The Magical Adventures of Emma and Jake,” I am struck with renewed enthusiasm during the creation of this 2nd edition “A Circus Day Adventure for Emma and Jake.” The colours and ideas just flowed while I painted on 12 x 12 canvas boards, all the images and characters. I designed this book to relate to all things for a day at the Circus, colourful, entertaining and educational. For children up to 7 years of age, the reader will experience all the wonder of the Circus and the joys it brings. I wanted very much to create the second edition book based on a theme that children of this age group would enjoy and even learn from. I feel I have again accomplished my mission and you will see Emma and Jake are thrilled to be going off on another adventure together this time joined by Emma’s Mom and Dad. I have long awaited this day to bring such colorful themes to life for young children, as I come from a very large extended family myself with many youngster in it. The tremendous joy of seeing young faces light up with a good story line and colorful subjects, while learning from it all, is a sight to behold. Do enjoy this 2nd edition children’s book “A Circus Day Adventure for Emma and Jake” as illustrated and written by Mary Ann Barker (writer/artist). Also look for my 1st edition “The Magical Adventures of Emma and Jake.”

Tattoos, Desire and Violence by Karin Beeler Pdf

Whether they graphically depict an individual’s or a community’s beliefs, express the defiance of authority, or brand marginalized groups, tattoos are a means of interpersonal communication that dates back thousands of years. Evidence of the tattoo’s place in today’s popular culture is all around—in advertisements, on the stereotypical outlaw character in films and television, in supermarket machines that dispense children’s wash-away tattoos, and even in the production of a tattooed Barbie doll. This book explores the tattoo’s role, primarily as an emblem of resistance and marginality, in recent literature, film, and television. The association of tattoos with victims of the Holocaust, slaves, and colonized peoples; with gangs, inmates, and other marginalized groups; and the connection of the tattoo narrative to desire and violence are discussed at length.

The Journal of Ann McMath by Ann McMath Pdf

In 1851, fourteen-year-old orphan Ann McMath was sent to live with her uncle and his family in their parsonage in Horseheads, New York. Lonely and full of self doubt, anxious to establish female friendships in a new place, and questing for intellectual and moral perfection, she began keeping journal when she was seventeen and wrote in it regularly for the next five years, until she was married. A fascinating example of "biography from below," McMath's journal offers a rare glimpse of of life in the 1850s as it was lived by ordinary women, told in the authentic voice of a young woman coming of age in the Burned-Over District of Western New York. In addition to the journal itself, the book includes an introduction by editor C. Stewart Doty, as well as a geneaology, notes on the text, and a section entitled "People in the Life of Ann McMath," which gives brief biographies of everyone mentioned in the journal.

Agnes Lake Hickok by Carolyn M. Bowers,Linda A. Fisher Pdf

The first woman in America to own and operate a circus, Agnes Lake spent thirty years under the Big Top before becoming the wife of Wild Bill Hickok—a mere five months before he was killed. Although books abound on the famous lawman, Agnes’s life has remained obscured by circus myth and legend. Linda A. Fisher and Carrie Bowers have written the first biography of this colorful but little-known circus performer. Agnes originally found fame as a slack-wire walker and horseback rider, and later as an animal trainer. Her circus career spanned more than four decades. Following the murder of her first husband, Bill Lake, she was the sole manager of the “Hippo-Olympiad and Mammoth Circus.” While taking her show to Abilene, she met town marshal Hickok and five years later she married him. After Hickok’s death, Agnes traveled with P. T. Barnum and Buffalo Bill Cody, and managed her daughter Emma Lake’s successful equestrian career. This account of a remarkable life cuts through fictions about Agnes’s life, including her own embellishments, to uncover her true story. Numerous illustrations, including rare photographs and circus memorabilia, bring Agnes’s world to life.

Experience, Variation and Generalization by Inbal Arnon,Eve V. Clark Pdf

Are all children exposed to the same linguistic input, and do they follow the same route in acquisition? The answer is no: The language that children hear differs even within a social class or cultural setting, as do the paths individual children take. The linguistic signal itself is also variable, both within and across speakers - the same sound is different across words; the same speech act can be realized with different constructions. The challenge here is to explain, given their diversity of experience, how children arrive at similar generalizations about their first language. This volume brings together studies of phonology, morphology, and syntax in development, to present a new perspective on how experience and variation shape children's linguistic generalizations. The papers deal with variation in forms, learning processes, and speaker features, and assess the impact of variation on the mechanisms and outcomes of language learning.

No announcements precede it. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not. Within the black-and-white striped canvas tents is an utterly unique experience full of breathtaking amazements. It is called Le Cirque des Rêves, and it is only open at night. But behind the scenes, a fierce competition is underway: a duel between two young magicians, Celia and Marco, who have been trained since childhood expressly for this purpose by their mercurial instructors. Unbeknownst to them both, this is a game in which only one can be left standing. Despite the high stakes, Celia and Marco soon tumble headfirst into love, setting off a domino effect of dangerous consequences, and leaving the lives of everyone, from the performers to the patrons, hanging in the balance.
