My Day with the Cup by Jim Lang Pdf

Never-before-told stories of wild celebrations and heartfelt moments with the Stanley Cup, in the words of the champions themselves, including Sidney Crosby, Brendan Shanahan, Larry Robinson, and Mike Modano. There is no trophy like the Stanley Cup. It has the names of every champion who’s won it engraved on its shining sides. And when it is won, it is presented first to the players, who have fought so hard to raise it above their heads. The Cup is special in another way, too. Every summer, it goes on a cross-continent tour (sometimes even overseas), visiting every player, coach, and team member who won it that year. Everyone gets their day with the Cup, chaperoned by one of the ever-watchful Keepers of the Cup from the Hockey Hall of Fame to make sure it doesn’t get into too much trouble. The Cup has been everywhere, from the bottom of a pool at a rock star’s mansion to a ride through the sky above Montreal in a helicopter flown by none other than hockey legend Guy Lafleur. It has served beer and champagne, breakfast cereal for kids, popcorn, and hot dogs. It brings joy to players and fans and inspires awe everywhere it goes. Veteran sportscaster and bestselling author Jim Lang has interviewed more than thirty players and coaches, and a couple of Keepers of the Cup, to collect these behind-the-scenes stories of the Stanley Cup’s adventures. Each one is special, but they all share strong themes of family and friends, community, gratitude, and the feeling that the greatest achievements in life are best celebrated with others.

My Day with the Cup by Sidney Crosby Pdf

Each member of the winning Stanley Cup team is given with a day with the Cup. The NHL, the winning franchise, the Hockey Hall of Fame, and the player organize an event in each player's hometown that turns into quite a celebration. There is no limit to the Cup’s travel as it will criss-cross the globe to ensure that each player has his day in his hometown, whether that be a small village in the Ukraine or Moscow. This year, the most anticipated Cup event was the day it traveled to Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia for Pittsburgh Penguin’s captain Sidney Crosby’s birthday. Sidney packed in a parade, a visit to a naval base, a flight on a marine helicopter, a visit to a children’s hospital, an outing on his jet ski, a dinner at his home, and party with friends and family. The Cup was the centerpiece at a celebration in downtown Halifax where hundreds of thousands for fans came out to cheer for their hometown hero and see the Cup with their own eyes. Wherever the Cup travels, fans come to admire it and Sidney was provided a photographer for the day that captured each and every moment of his adventure. Those images comprise this celebratory book, along with captions and text by the hockey superstar himself.

Ordinary Wonders by Nancy Kuykendall Pdf

Some of the most wondrous and extraordinary things are all around us, yet we often miss seeing them. Some are so small they can easily be overlooked if we aren't paying attention. Some are large, yet we still miss seeing them. Circumstances in life sometimes seem one sided, yet there are often two sides to be seen if one might stop and ponder them. New ways of seeing and thinking about surroundings and circumstances in life is what Ordinary Wonders is all about. It is about noticing the wonders in the most ordinary of days or the most ordinary of things. It's about the many wonders there for ones enjoyment and sometimes to teach a lesson. Ordinary Wonders is about God's many gifts as seen and experienced by the author herself.

The Empress of Quintessence by Laurie Adams Pdf

A conversation with a wealthy neighbour gives environmentalist Maria a chance to undertake her dream project: building a world class, eco-friendly wellness facility in the heart of the Niagara Escarpment; one that is uncompromising in its commitment to an environmental and wholistic sound practice. But the chance comes with a catch. Not only does Maria have five years to complete her project and turn a profit, but she also has to demonstrate that her environmentalist principals are viable in the corporate world, or else she has to sell. Soon it becomes clear that her development is important to many more people than just herself. She and her land in particular become a focal point for mystics, spiritualists and healers each with an agenda of their own. As Maria progresses in her understanding of the deeper aspects of the metaphysical and paranormal, some friends become enemies, and some lovers, while others drift off into the ether, or return from the dead. Through them all, Maria learns of an ancient spiritual struggle that encapsulates Earth, one that she’s much more a part of than she ever would have imagined.

Forever 22 by Carson George Pdf

Walk with me while God connects the dots of my life, bringing those dots collectively to the point where He wants them to be. Walk with me as I learn to listen to my heart as instructed by the Spirit within as I learn to trust the voice of God. Walk with me after many morning cups of joe to help me ponder the day ahead, seeking answers to questions and problems that only Gods wisdom could provide. Experience the joy the heart gains from doing it Gods way. It cannot fail. I tried it my way, and it did not work so well. Walk with me through all the good, and then into the valley of the shadow of death. Walk with me out of that valley into the light by the grace of God. Learn with me that when I lay my head down and pray in earnest for Gods wisdom, it is given. Learn the power in a simple phrase when taken from the heart, how Not a problem really works. Walk with me and learn how when I have purpose in my heart strengthens the resolve to do what we should be doing.

The Ghost of the Stanley Cup by Roy MacGregor Pdf

The Screech Owls have come to Ottawa to play in the Little Stanley Cup peewee tournament. This relaxed summer event honours Lord Stanley himself - the man who donated the Stanley Cup to hockey - and gives young players a chance to see the wonders of Canada's capital city, travel into the wilds of Algonquin Park, and even go river rafting. Mr. Dillinger is also taking them to visit some of the region's famous ghosts: the ghost of a dead prime minister; the ghost of a man hanged for murder; the ghost of the famous painter Tom Thomson. At first the Owls think this is Mr. Dillinger's best idea ever, until Travis and his friends begin to suspect that one of these ghosts could be for real. Who is this phantom? Why has he come to haunt the Screech Owls? And what is his connection to the mysterious young stranger who offers to coach the team?

My Day with Gong Gong by Sennah Yee Pdf

A day in Chinatown takes an unexpected turn when a bored little girl makes a connection with her grandpa. May isn't having fun on her trip through Chinatown with her grandfather. Gong Gong doesn't speak much English, and May can't understand Chinese. She's hungry, and bored with Gong Gong's errands. Plus, it seems like Gong Gong's friends are making fun of her! But just when May can’t take any more, Gong Gong surprises her with a gift that reveals he’s been paying more attention than she thought. With lighthearted, expressive illustrations by Elaine Chen, this charming debut expertly captures life in the city and shows how small, shared moments of patience and care—and a dumpling or two—can help a child and grandparent bridge the generational and cultural gaps between them. A glossary at the end of the book features translations of the Chinese words from the story into Chinese characters and English. *A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection
