I Am Pan! by Mordicai Gerstein Pdf

Mischievous from the moment he emerges howling and screeching from his mother's womb, Pan, god of the wild, creates pandemonium wherever he goes. Noise and confusion follow him as he steals arrows from Artemis, conceives panic, tricks the moon into falling in love with him, and saves the world from the monster, Typhon. With panache and a wicked pair of horns, Pan spreads chaos and laughter on the way to becoming Mount Olympus's most lovable pest. From Mordicai Gerstein, Caldecott Medal-winning author of The Man Who Walked Between the Towers, comes an irresistible picture book about Greek mythology's wildest, wackiest god. Gerstein's high-spirited paintings and rollicking sense of humor create an accessible introduction to an unforgettably vivacious hero.

The Man Who Walked Between the Towers by Mordicai Gerstein Pdf

The story of a daring tightrope walk between skyscrapers, as seen in Robert Zemeckis's The Walk, starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt. In 1974, French aerialist Philippe Petit threw a tightrope between the two towers of the World Trade Center and spent an hour walking, dancing, and performing high-wire tricks a quarter mile in the sky. This picture book captures the poetry and magic of the event with a poetry of its own: lyrical words and lovely paintings that present the detail, daring, and--in two dramatic foldout spreads-- the vertiginous drama of Petit's feat. The Man Who Walked Between the Towers is the winner of the 2004 Caldecott Medal, the winner of the 2004 Boston Globe - Horn Book Award for Picture Books, and the winner of the 2006 Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Children's Video.

Applesauce Season by Eden Ross Lipson Pdf

A taste of fall: Celebrated editor Eden Lipson and Caldecott Medal winner Mordicai Gerstein celebrate a fall family ritual in Applesauce Season, a picture book rich with the colors and flavors of the season. When the first apples of the season--Ida Red and Paula Red, Twenty Ounce, McIntosh, and Ginger Gold--show up in the city markets, it's time to take out the big pot and make applesauce. A lovingly recounted description of a family's applesauce-making ritual describes the buying, peeling, cooking and stirring; the wait for the sauce to cool and the first taste. Mordicai Gerstein's paintings are full of the colors and flavors of the season: red apples, orange leaves, blue skies. Here's a lovely picture book celebrating an American family tradition.

Sorry I'm Late, I Didn't Want to Come follows Jess's hilarious and painful year of misadventures in extroverting, reporting back from the frontlines for all the introverts out there.

Graduates in Wonderland by Jessica Pan,Rachel Kapelke-Dale Pdf

Two best friends document their post-college lives in a hilarious, relatable, and powerfully honest epistolary memoir. Fast friends since they met at Brown University during their freshman year, Jessica Pan and Rachel Kapelke-Dale vowed to keep in touch after their senior year through in-depth—and brutally honest—weekly e-mails. After graduation, Jess packs up everything she owns and moves to Beijing on a whim, while Rachel heads to New York to work for an art gallery and to figure out her love life. Each spends the next few years tumbling through adulthood and reinventing themselves in various countries, including France, China, and Australia. Through their messages from around the world, they swap tales of teaching classes of military men, running a magazine, and flirting in foreign languages, along with the hard stuff: from harrowing accidents to breakups and breakdowns. Reminiscent of Sloan Crosley’s essays and Lena Dunham’s Girls, Graduates in Wonderland is an intimate, no-holds-barred portrait of two young women as they embark upon adulthood.

Stolen by Pan by Jessi Ramey Pdf

"The Peter Pan standing in front of me does not have an inviting smile or a cute little fairy flying by his shoulder. He has not shown me an ounce of kindness, and definitely has not offered me to play a game of treasure hunt. He is not the innocently playful twelve-year-old boy I had imagined him to be. Instead, he is a teenager with a blood-stained dagger and a fire in his eyes that leads me to believe that everything the fairy tales told me about him was a lie." Kit was just trying to have a nice night at prom when her life was flipped upside down. Now she is stuck in Neverland and Peter Pan is telling her she is the reason his island is dying. All she wants is to go home, but all Peter wants is for Neverland to return to normal. Kit is going to be thrown into stories she has never taken seriously before and realize that her life is more intertwined with them than she would like for it to be. Familiar characters will show their true colors and Kit will have to figure out that sometimes the most of beloved fairytale characters turn out to be the worst villains.

Vast Alchemies by G. Peter Winnington Pdf

Interest in Mervyn Peake, author of Titus Groan and many other modern fantasy classics, has never been greater than it is now. With the imminent BBC adaptation and showing of the acclaimed Gormenghast Trilogy in England, and its showing in the U.S. this summer (on the Discovery channel), and with the re-issuing of his books, this completely new reassessment of the life and work of one of this century's most popular and misunderstood writers will be much welcomed. This biography is the result of twenty-five years' research into Peake by one of the world's best authorities. It follows Peake, the son of missionary parents, from China to art school in London and to an artist's colony in the Channel Islands. It covers in detail his time in the army during the Second World War, a stressful period which coincided with his writing of Titus Groan; the huge influence that his visit to the concentration camp at Belsen had on his work; and the next ten years of his life, which were without doubt his most productive. Winnington examines all of Peake's work -- the novels, poems, the illustrations, and the plays -- and emphasizes his struggle with poverty, ill health, and his premature death. Vast Alchemies draws heavily on the writings and reminiscences of those who knew Peake, as well as Peake's correspondence with his publishers, and includes many never-before published photographs.

One Pan, Two Plates: Vegetarian Suppers by Carla Snyder Pdf

More and more people are making the shift to a vegetable-centric diet. Yet, in a two-person household it can be challenging to find quick, easy, and satisfying recipes to cook up at the end of a busy workday (especially without leftovers). This follow-up to the successful One Pan, Two Plates provides 70 perfectly sized vegetarian entrées—think Butternut Risotto, Gnocchi with Wild Mushrooms and Edamame, and Eggplant Rollatini—all requiring only one pan and one hour or less to prepare. With beverage pairings for each recipe and an "Extra hungry?" feature for heartier appetites, each dish is one that home cooks will make again and again.

Pan - God of The Woods by Lawrence R. Spencer Pdf

Pan, the Greek god of forests, shepherds and fertility, has long represented the pagan gods in general. With the advent of the Christian church communication with the pagan gods was very heavily suppressed by priests who have a vested interest in eliminating religious competition, by any means required, including, but not limited to lying, stealing, cheating, murder, mayhem, extortion, torture and blackmail. As a result, general public attention to the pagan gods disappeared about 2,000 years ago. PAN-God of the Woods assumes that the pagan gods may still be active, living beings. If any of the ancient gods are still around in the 21st century, what are they doing now? If they are here now -- still watching, still powerful, still immortal -- where or how might we contact them? If Pan is still around which of us mortals could not use the helping hand of a friendly god once in awhile? -- Lawrence R. Spencer

Summary of Jessica Pan's Sorry I'm Late, I Didn't Want to Come by Everest Media, Pdf

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I had spent nearly three years in Beijing getting used to being stared at and judged by the locals. I assumed it would be a breeze to assimilate in England, but instead, the people there stole my wallet and my visa, and thus my right to work in the UK. #2 I had spent a few years in London, and all my friends had left. I was still writing blog posts about shoes, but now I was doing it for less money while sitting on our sunken blue sofa. I began to call myself a freelancer. #3 I was in a deep hole, and I didn’t know how to get out. I had created a fortress around myself, stacked high with books and a sign on the wall that said, I don’t need you anyhow! But I did. #4 I was lured in by the gym’s free membership if I attended three fitness classes a week and won their in-house fitness and weight loss challenge. I was confident about winning because it’s easy to win things like this when you have nothing else going on in your life.
