Описание: Not long after her father died, Afsaneh Najmabadi discovered that her father had a secret second family and that she had a sister she never knew about. In Familial Undercurrents, Najmabadi uncovers her family’s complex experiences of polygamous marriage to tell a larger story of the transformations of notions of love, marriage, and family life in mid-twentieth-century Iran. She traces how the idea of “marrying for love” and the desire for companionate, monogamous marriage acquired dominance in Tehran’s emerging urban middle class. Considering the role played in that process by late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century romance novels, reformist newspapers, plays, and other literature, Najmabadi outlines the rituals and objects---such as wedding outfits, letter writing, and family portraits---that came to characterize the ideal companionate marriage. She reveals how in the course of one generation men’s polygamy had evolved from an acceptable open practice to a taboo best kept secret. At the same time, she chronicles the urban transformations of Tehran and how its architecture and neighborhood social networks both influenced and became emblematic of the myriad forms of modern Iranian family life.

"We Love to Paint " is a colorful and fun story that takes us along on a journey of learning as three primary color paint brushes and their friend paper learn to work together. There is a strong teaching in the text and illustrations about how cooperation leads to great results.
This story teaches the young reader two important lessons. First, it helps the child understand how the primary colors interact to create many new colors. This is a great teaching tool as our young readers begin exploring art. Secondly, it teaches the child the importance of working together with others and how working together helps us create something that is even better than we originally expected.
To help teach these points, the story uses bold, colorful, and fun illustrations. The story starts out very simple but as it develops, the uncooperative spirit of the characters adds complexity to what seems like a simple task. As the story builds, the characters begin learning to cooperate with each other, which in turn helps them develop their greatest work.

"What It Is " is a whimsical story about farm animals finding half of an empty coconut shell and trying to figure out just What It Is
This story teaches the young reader that they must learn to appreciate different points of view and remain open-minded to possibilities. Based on our backgrounds and perspectives, we each have unique ideas on what things are and how they should be used. This story provides the parent or teacher a platform for teaching these much-needed lessons. Some of the characters are silly and some are a touch arrogant. We quickly learn that being arrogant (even when right), limits us from seeing the possibilities and usefulness of something that may at first seem useless. What is important is that many things can have unique and different uses for many different individuals if they remain creative and open-minded to what its possibilities are.
To help teach these points, the story uses fun and playful illustrations and engaging rhymes to tell the story and capture the young reader's interest. The reader will become immediately engaged as they meet the silly sheep and her know-it-all friends. We hope you enjoy learning just "What It Is "
