April Raintree by Beatrice Mosionier Pdf

Memories. Some memories are elusive, fleeting, like a butterfly that touches down and is free until it is caught. Others are haunting. You'd rather forget them, but they won't be forgotten. And some are always there. No matter where you are, they are there, too. In this moving story of legacy and reclamation, two young sisters are taken from their home and family. Powerless in a broken system, April and Cheryl are separated and placed in different foster homes. Despite the distance, they remain close, even as their decisions threaten to divide them emotionally, culturally, and geographically. As one sister embraces her Métis identity, the other tries to leave it behind. Will the sisters’ bond survive as they struggle to make their way in a society that is often indifferent, hostile, and violent? Based on the adult novel In Search of April Raintree, this edition has been revised specifically for students in grades 9 through 12. Great ideas for using this book in your classroom can be found in the Teacher’s Guide for In Search of April Raintree and April Raintree.

The Sense of an Ending by Julian Barnes Pdf

BOOKER PRIZE WINNER • NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A novel that follows a middle-aged man as he contends with a past he never much thought about—until his closest childhood friends return with a vengeance: one of them from the grave, another maddeningly present. A novel so compelling that it begs to be read in a single setting, The Sense of an Ending has the psychological and emotional depth and sophistication of Henry James at his best, and is a stunning achievement in Julian Barnes's oeuvre. Tony Webster thought he left his past behind as he built a life for himself, and his career has provided him with a secure retirement and an amicable relationship with his ex-wife and daughter, who now has a family of her own. But when he is presented with a mysterious legacy, he is forced to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.

The Madwoman in the Volvo: My Year of Raging Hormones by Sandra Tsing Loh Pdf

From an “imaginatively twisted and fearless” writer (Los Angeles Times), a hilarious memoir of middle age. In a voice that is wry, disarming, and totally candid, Sandra Tsing Loh tells the moving and laugh-out-loud tale of her roller coaster through "the change." This is not your grandmother's menopause story. Loh chronicles utterly relatable, everyday perils: raising preteen daughters, weathering hormonal changes, and the ups and downs of a career and a relationship. She writes also about an affair and the explosion of her marriage, while managing the legal and marital hijinks of her eighty-nine-year-old dad. The upbeat conclusion: it does get better.

It's Never Too Late to Date by Shirley Friedenthal,Howard Eisenberg Pdf

The (Soon-To-Be) Best Selling Mature Singles Dating Book Too many women in their 50s and beyond have given up on ever meeting Mr. Practically Perfect. But a small inner voice wonders, "Will I always have to go to bed with a book? Responding to that voice, the authors' inspiring message is, "It's never too late. We did it. So can you. Here's how! DATING WISDOM 101 Turn off your Shy Button. Shrinking violets bloom unseen. No need to despair if your hourglass figure has gained half an hour. It's never too late to lose weight. The only thing you get from sitting around waiting for romance to happen is creases in your skirt. When it comes to choosing women, men are as shallow as your bathtub. If you don't like what you see in the mirror, don't break the mirror. Your cup isn't half-empty. It's just waiting to be filled. Start pouring! Most men are as attracted to cleavage as toddlers are to electric sockets and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Smile. Smile. Smile. Why do we love babies? Their wonderful smiles make up for what's in their diapers. Make a habit of going to bed with comfort food, and the only thing you'll find beside you when you wake up in the morning is a bunch of crumbs. It's better to eat breakfast with the morning paper than with the wrong man. PAGES FROM AN Rx PAD Want to fly? You've got to flap your wings. Never walk your dog in a tattered T-shirt. Smile. Smile. Smile. Persist. Persist. Persist. Play the cyberspace numbers game. Network as if you were NBC. Go where the guys go. If at first you don't succeed, it's his fault. He doesn't have to be Richard Gere (though that would be nice). How to deal with the guy who's shy. Put on your Oprah hat. Don't endlessly seek the spouse you've lost. Be friends before you're lovers. Teach him about the birds, the bees, and Viagra. Don't keep what you're thinking a secret. Sex is wonderful, but it isn't everything. Be very sure before you call the moving man.

Still Growing by Donald Capps Pdf

The later-adult years are commonly viewed as a period in which one struggles to maintain a vestige of the physical, mental, and emotional vitality of one's earlier years. In 'Still Growing', however, Donald Capps shows that older adulthood is actually a period of growth and development, and that a central feature of this growth and development is the remarkable creativity of older adults. This creativity is the consequence of the wisdom gained through years of experience but is also due to a newly developed capacity to adapt to unprecedented challenges integral to the aging process.In Part 1, Capps illustrates the challenges of transitioning to older adulthood from the author's own experiences, while in Part 2 he draws on material from Erik H. Erikson, Sigmund Freud, and Paul W. Pruyser to account for longevity, adaptability, and creativity in older adults. Finally, in part 3 he focusses on the work of both William James and Walt Disney to fashion a model of creative aging.

Bringing the Inside Out by Cece Gardenia Pdf

Very few of us go through life unscathed. We encounter hardships along the way and think How will I survive or why did this happen to me? Colette Aliamo has had her share of feeling broken, immobilized, defeated and hurt. Barely two years old, she is hospitalized for the potential life- threatening virus of polio during the 1950s epidemic. Enduring long separations from her family and frightening surgeries and procedures, she is left with little reserve to provide her emotional stability. Life at home with her family is equally unsettling. With a physically abusive father and an emotionally disturbed mother, Colette finds little solace in her world. Living with deep-rooted insecurities, her fears of being accepted set in quickly during her school years and beyond. Despite her self- loathing, she faces the world hiding behind the mask she has made for herself. Feeling she is living a lie, Colette attempts to find ways to validate her worthiness. After a failed marriage, she questions her self worth and chooses misguided paths to ease her despair. Family betrayals and chronic illnesses threaten to consume her. However, with an unyielding spirit and the help of her loving husband and good friends, she comes to unexpected revelations that allow her to unshackle herself from a predestined emotional breakdown.
