A Smuggler's Guide to Good Manners by Kenny Ranen Pdf
A true story of terrifying seas, double-dealing, and love across three oceans, taking the reader on a smuggling voyage from the Atlantic down the Red Sea to Kenya, to Thailand and back across the Indian Ocean to Spain and the Netherlands. Notwithstanding medical emergencies at sea, sharks, pirates, monsoon storms, and the Guardia Civil, backing off was not an option. As much a story told from the life of the author, it is the story of a young "Kenya Cowgirl", Arianna, who became his crew and lover, as re-told through her journal entries. It is a story still passed along in a hundred bars in faraway ports where seafarers drink and wait out stormy weather.
A tender, beautifully illustrated story about a girl in America and her grandmother in India, whose love stretches between languages and cultures—and across the world. When Jyoti visits her grandmother halfway around the world, she is overwhelmed by the differences between India and home. At first she feels lonely and out of place, but soon, despite a language barrier, she and Sita Pati are able to understand each other. They form a bond—looking at books together, making designs with colored sand, shopping at the market, playing games, eating chapatis, and sipping warm milk with saffron to bring sweet dreams. When it’s time to part, Jyoti doesn’t want to leave, but then she remembers that in Tamil, people don’t say goodbye, they say “I’ll go and come back.” Sure enough, the two reunite the next summer when Pati visits Jyoti in America, and it’s Jyoti’s turn to make her grandmother feel welcome. Can they create some special memories that will last until the next time they see each other?
