We have a number of secrets about our lives, but one is extremely colorful. If you visit the Sarapiqui River or La Mina (Near Rancho Naturalista) in Costa Rica, you will have a good chance to see at least one of us and some of our habits. If you are very lucky, you will fly me fly or display, revealing my secret. The Sunbitterns
It is important that everyone help wildlife to survive and that as many as possible enjoy seeing, while not disturbing, wild creatures.
What do I know about wildlife? I have watched and photographed it since I was a small child. I have visited most Spanish-speaking countries during my vacations from teaching Spanish. My first trip to Costa Rica was in 1970. My goals in life are to entertain as well as to educate others and to promote conservation. I want everyone to be able to see and to appreciate nature and wildlife; therefore, I write photographic books. Most books describe animals and birds. I want you to see what I see while I travel so that you can understand as much as possible how creatures live, what they eat, how they move, and what they do where they are visible. I tired of studying books talking about ecology and wildlife; I want you to see what each creature looks like and how they act.
I chose Spanish-speaking countries for two reasons. First, I speak the language and have photographed everything I could for many years for my students to see as they learned the language. To communicate successfully with people of other countries, you need to understand their customs and culture as well as their language. Second, people are familiar with huge African and Asian animals. Unfortunately, little attention has been paid to the wealth of Latin American wildlife; I am trying to do my bit to help remedy the lack. While most of my books are written primarily for children, I hope adults too will enjoy the photographs and humor as well as learn more about the wildlife. Carol Creager

Описание:
Over the last century, the industrialization of agriculture and processing technologies have made food abundant and relatively inexpensive for much of the world’s population. Simultaneously, pesticides, nitrates, and other technological innovations intended to improve the food supply’s productivity and safety have generated new, often poorly understood risks for consumers and the environment. From the proliferation of synthetic additives to the threat posed by antibiotic-resistant bacteria, the chapters in Risk on the Table zero in on key historical cases in North America and Europe that illuminate the history of food safety, highlighting the powerful tensions that exists among scientific understandings of risk, policymakers’ decisions, and cultural notions of “pure” food.
When Kevin Creager started his career as a school psychologist in Ohio, little did he know the way parents answered the questions on the developmental history forms could tell him more about his students than the actual answers to the questions themselves.
For instance, when asked "What language is spoken in the home?" one family answered, "We cuss a little." Creager realized answers such as this held the key to understanding his students' home lives-so he spent the next thirty years recognizing and collecting these gems.
In We Cuss a Little, Creager compiles over thirty years' worth of stories, anecdotes, and observations gathered while working as school psychologist. Far from a philosophical treatise on education or a dry rendering of the subject, Creager's stories share the struggles and triumphs of real school employees and the children and families with which they work.
Creager believes that, more than test scores, report card grades, or special education labels, these parents' answers, and the stories behind them, can give educators a much better understanding of what really goes on in the lives of the children they serve.

TRUE STORY OF A BABY SLOTH RESCUED FROM THE GROUND. He was being cared for until he was old enough to live in the wild.
CAROL CREAGER is an experienced wildlife photographer, author, and Spanish teacher, who travels extensively in Costa Rica.
A number of frog species of Costa Rica are identified. Their goal is to be free but responsible, earning their own food and place. They are grateful to be protected by the rangers and police, so that they can feel safe. We all need to feel safe and protected by our police as we work and play without fear.

Why do I howl? It is important to keep in contact with my troop as we travel through the rainforest. We also have to keep other groups of monkeys away from us. I have a prove that I am the leader of the group by the strength of my howl and by my daring. I travel on open bridges and along slender branches where it is very hard to keep my balance, too scary for others in my troop to travel. - Mantled Howler Monkey Leader
