Описание:
Holes meets The Goonies in the highly anticipated second middle-grade novel from the author of Gertie's Leap to Greatness
Frederick Frederickson has a food-chain theory about life. There are lions, like the school bully. Gazelles, like the bullied kids. There are meerkats, and the fleas that live on the butts of meerkats. Frederick's a flea.
Fifth grade is off to a terrible start when Frederick is sent to a disciplinary camp for troublesome boys. His fellow troop mates--Nosebleed, Specs, The Professor, and little-yet-lethal Ant Bite--are terrifying. But in between trust-building exercises and midnight escape attempts, a tenuous friendship grows between them. Which is lucky, because a Category 5 hurricane is coming and everyone will have to work together--lions and fleas alike--to survive
Kate Beasley outdoes herself in this hilarious, whip-smart tale of brotherhood, survival, and what it really means to be a friend.
Praise for Lions & Liars:
Beasley follows her acclaimed debut, Gertie's Leap to Greatness (2016), with a winning story that matches earnestness with humor. . .transformative read. --Booklist, starred review
Beasley's sophomore novel. . .is chock full of zany, nicknamed characters (Frederick shares a cabin with Nosebleed, Ant Bite, Specs, and the Professor) coming together in a story of friendship among boys. . .A fun coming-of-age romp. --Kirkus Reviews

Описание: Until the 1980s, Vancouver was a typical mid-sized North American city. But after the city hosted Expo 86, something extraordinary happened. This otherwise unremarkable urban centre was transformed into an inspiring world-class city celebrated for its livability, sustainability, and competitiveness. This book tells the story of the urban planning phenomenon called “Vancouverism” and the philosophy and practice behind it. Writing from an insider’s perspective, Larry Beasley, a former chief planner of Vancouver, traces the principles that inspired Vancouverism and the policy framework developed to implement it. A prologue, written by Frances Bula, outlines the political and urban history of Vancouver up until the 1980s. The text is also beautifully illustrated by the author with 200 colour photographs depicting not only the city’s vibrancy but also the principles of Vancouverism in action.

Описание:
While living in Denver in the early 1890s, Francis Schlatter, a poor immigrant cobbler from Alsace-Lorraine, heard a voice inside his head that told him to put down his tools and go outside and walk east. For several years Schlatter, a deeply pious man, had been aware that he possessed the potential to cure people of their afflictions if he could only muster enough faith; the time to test that faith had arrived. So began a grueling two-year journey on foot that took him as far east as Hot Springs, Arkansas, then back across the Southwest to San Diego, north to San Francisco, then east to Arizona and New Mexico. In the summer and fall of 1895, first in Albuquerque then in Denver, he began to treat hundreds of people a day. Word of his miraculous power ran like wildfire all over the Southwest. Appalled by the carnival atmosphere he encountered in Denver, Schlatter slipped away into the wilds of New Mexico, finally into Old Mexico, where he died under mysterious circumstances in the spring of 1897. Charlatan or saint? Healer or fraud? The question remains. Even his detractors acknowledged the genuine compassion that people felt in his presence. Most telling was the fact that he never took a dime for the therapies he performed. A hundred years ago Francis Schlatter was one of the best-known figures in the Southwest; since then he has literally fallen off the map. In this gripping and powerful narrative, based on contemporary newspaper accounts and a memoir that Schlatter dictated to a friend before he died in Mexico, Conger Beasley, Jr. reconstructs the life and times of this remarkable man.

Описание: Rejection, triumph, passion, love and heartache In this book of poems, prayers, notes and quotes it's a roller coaster of emotions and God is the engineer It's a subtle reminder that no matter what we go through, there is a testimony to every test. You can feel the warmth in your heart as every page turns. This book was inspired over 17 years ago. Everything that was inspired to be written over the years has fit perfectly in this compilation. I can't take credit for all of this, I was the vessel used but life and God definitely fostered these words. God truly determined every one of my steps. So many times my husband has said that I should do something with my writing. He has been one of my biggest fans. I have always enjoyed writing and secretly wanted to write a book but truth be told I was really afraid of possible rejection. It wasn't until I was faced with some life altering events in 2013, I decided no longer will I be concerned about other people accepting me nor pleasing them any longer. A cancer diagnosis will definitely get you to reevaluate your life's purpose and mission. I realized that I had devoted many years to people pleasing and forgot all about me. It was a bitter pill to swallow when I was diagnosed with cancer and all the people I thought would be there to support me weren't there. I realized that I expected them to respond how I would have responded had it been one of them battling a potentially fatal disease. I felt abandoned in more ways than one. My life was spiraling out of control and it was nothing I could do about it. I was wounded by some of those who claimed to have loved me so much. Instead of focusing on and picking those wounds; I opened my heart to forgiveness and the love that had been strategically placed around me. I noticed how prayers that I had prayed several years prior had been answered. I saw relationships that I desired being cultivated and some aspects of others end. I had no idea of the blessing that would come from what seemed to be such a disaster. God knew exactly what I needed at that time in order to comfort me and I found solace with my pad and pen. The pressures of life pushed me to pull out old journals of poetry and pressed me to push my pen. The outcome was "Revelations Of My Heart". In "Revelations Of My Heart", Love is the central theme and it is an intimate collection of poems, prayers, notes and quotes. Every word was inspired by my life experiences, special people in my life and the love I withheld from myself. I've learned that the way I treat myself is the only way I really can treat others anything else is deceptive. I couldn't love my fellow man as myself because I withheld love from myself. I am no longer deceptive and I'm not ashamed or afraid of my truth. "Revelations of My Heart" has given me courage to be who I am; Nothing more, nothing less. My experiences no longer define me, I have finally defined myself My desire is that you are able to visualize the passages that I've penned and find hope throughout the journey.
