Stand Straight and Grow Tall by Dolores Howell Pdf

Imagine going to a grocery store in a foreign country, looking for baby food for your little one, having only the pictures to go by to find anything your baby can eat. Delores Howell lived this, not in a foreign land, but in the U.S.A., and not for just a short visit, but for a lifetime - she was illiterate. Try as she might, she could not read, nor spell. Everything may just as well have been in a foreign language.Dory did go through school and tried very hard to learn, but due to a severe learning disability, dyslexia, she was unable to learn to read. Dyslexia was unknown when Dory was in school in the 1940's and 1950's. Teachers did not understand that she did not see or hear like other children. Ashamed of her illiteracy, Dory hid the fact from everyone - her parents, her sisters, her friends, even her husband. By the time she was a mother of four young children, she realized she had to get help to learn to read, not only for her own sake, but for her children as well. Desperately she sought help, but she had to convince people of her disability before she could find anyone who would, or could, help. Stand Straight and Grow Tall is Dory's true story of her lifetime struggle against illiteracy. Dory's story is the story, of so many in our society even today, and they are not just school children. Dorey tells of her struggle with words, and with educators, administrators, counselors, psychologists - even with God. How could God let her go through all of this? Yet it is her faith in God that kept her going. Dory's story is one of hope and is a valuable lesson for parents, educators and all who come in contact with people with learning disabilities. Understanding how dyslexia effects a person's perceptions and the problems this disability causes, is the first step to understanding how to educate dyslexic persons. Besides some updated content, this revised edition of "Stand Straight and Grow Tall" contains some of Dolores Howell's poetry and prose, not in the original edition.

Stand Up Straight! by Sander L. Gilman Pdf

Our bodies are not fixed. They expand and contract with variations in diet, exercise, and illness. They also alter as we age, changing over time to be markedly different at the end of our lives from what they were at birth. In a similar way, our attitudes to bodies, and especially posture—how people hold themselves, how they move—are fluid. We interpret stance and gait as healthy or ill, able or disabled, elegant or slovenly, beautiful or ugly. In Stand Up Straight!, Sander L. Gilman probes these shifting concepts of posture to explore how society’s response to our bodies’ appearance can illuminate how society views who we are and what we are able to do. The first comprehensive history of the upright body at rest and in movement, Stand Up Straight! stretches from Neanderthals to modern humans to show how we have used our understanding of posture to define who we are—and who we are not. Gilman traverses theology and anthropology, medicine and politics, discarded ideas of race and the most modern ideas of disability, theories of dance and concepts of national identity in his quest to set straight the meaning of bearing. Fully illustrated with an array of striking images from medical, historical, and cultural sources, Stand Up Straight! interweaves our developing knowledge of anatomy and a cultural history of posture to provide a highly original account of our changing attitudes toward stiff spines, square shoulders, and flat tummies through time.

The Right Words at the Right Time Volume 2 by Marlo Thomas,Bruce Kluger,Carl Robbins,David Tabatsky Pdf

From big cities to farm communities, from office cubicles to hospital wards, from Normandy Beach to Boston's Fenway Park, the contributors to this remarkable volume -- selected from among thousands in a nationwide search -- tell riveting stories about the words that changed their lives forever. You'll meet a "Plain Jane" from Seattle, whose world was rocked by a passing remark made by her favorite musician, backstage at a concert. You'll hear from the bereaved fiancé of a 9/11 victim, who found hope in a note pinned to a teddy bear. You'll laugh with a beleaguered soccer mom, who reveals the single phrase she never wants to hear again. And your heart will break for a prison inmate, who recalls the one piece of advice he still wishes he took. In each case, words had made all the difference. Marlo Thomas has once again tapped into the human spirit, assembling a breathtaking collection of beautiful and inspiring essays about the enduring power of words, and how their impact can last a lifetime. As a follow-up to her 2002 New York Times #1 bestseller, The Right Words at the Right Time, Thomas presents 101 new first-person stories that are at once universal and strikingly personal. Like the tale of a Gulf War veteran, whose life was transformed by just two words spoken by a young stranger at a Burger King. Or the aimless garage mechanic, who found salvation in a Help Wanted ad. Or the unsuspecting mother of three, who made a heart-warming discovery about her grandmother's "racy past." As this astonishing anthology proves, the "right words" can come from anywhere -- the pages of a dusty old songbook, the pulpit of a neighborhood church, the wreckage of Ground Zero, a hand-stitched sampler hanging on a wall, and a child's simple expression of love. The Right Words at the Right Time, Volume 2: Your Turn! is a collection to be read and read again -- a volume that will be cherished both by fans of the original book and anyone who has ever been touched by the startling and life-affirming magic of words.
