Moving from Texas to Hawaii in 1960, 12-year-old Peggy Sue faces a difficult transition when she is bulled as one of the few haole (white) students in her school. This lyrical debut novel is perfect for Common Core classroom connections. It's 1960 and Peggy Sue has just been transplanted from Texas to Hawaii for her father's new job. Her cat, Howdy, is stuck in animal quarantine, and she's baffled by Hawaiian customs and words. Worst of all, eighth-grader Kiki Kahana targets Peggy Sue because she is haole—white—warning her that unless she does what Kiki wants, she will be a victim on "kill haole day," the last day of school. Peggy Sue's home ec teacher insists that she help Kiki with her sewing project or risk failing. Life looks bleak until Peggy Sue meets Malina, whose mother gives hula lessons. But when her parents take a trip to Hilo, leaving Peggy Sue at Malina's, life takes an unexpected twist in the form of a tsunami. Peggy Sue is knocked unconscious and wakes to learn that her parents' whereabouts are unknown. Peggy Sue has to summon all her courage to have hope that they will return safely.

“A full-course meal, a rich, complex and memorable story that will leave you lingering gratefully at [Abu-Jaber’s] table.”—Ron Charles, Washington Post At thirteen, Felice Muir ran away from home to punish herself for some horrible thing she had done—leaving a hole in the hearts of her pastry-chef mother, her real estate attorney father, and her foodie-entrepreneurial brother. After five years of scrounging for food, drugs, and shelter on Miami Beach, Felice is now turning eighteen, and she and the family she left behind must reckon with the consequences of her actions—and make life-affirming choices about what matters to them most, now and in the future.

A unique guide to bringing faith, devotion, and reverence to your marriage—by a wife and mother who almost took her holy vows. At one time, Shani Chen wanted nothing more than to renounce wordly life by becoming a nun. But after years of following a devoutly religious path, it was the nuns themselves who told Shani that she would find her calling elsewhere. Years later, she built a fulfilling life for herself as a loving wife and mother. One day, to her surprise, she realized that the lessons that she had learned from the nuns were actually helping her in married life—and that when other couples she knew were struggling, she seemed to know how to help. If Nuns Were Wives is a handbook for wives on how to thrive in marriage using the perspective of a nun. With an unconventional, engaging style, Chen takes her reader on a spiritual journey—founded on the realities of love and marriage and transcending dogma and religion—building the role of the American wife into a new temple for relationships.

Finally, a book of poems for a society that could not possibly care less about a book of poems. A book of poems that can be alternatively humorous and dark; visionary and quotidian. A book of poems for those who enjoy the poetry of Whitman, Ginsberg, Dickinson, Cummings, and a much less well known (and appreciated) bard named Sancho Panza. A book of poems that describe a life (or perhaps many lives) in the process of being lived, and, most importantly, experienced. A book of poems for YOU, the one who needs it most!

Many stories have been added to SOLDIERS' STORIES since 2014, so Volume II was written for those that have the original book. These new stories from old friends range from the humorous to the unbelievable and tragic. Veterans and close family members of veterans have contributed these stories, many after much thought, but with the desire that their story will be remembered! Too often the bitter sweet memories of comrades-in-arms or family members is too saddening to dredge up from behind that protective mental wall we have built around them. These additional stories, however, illuminate the individual Solider, Marine, Airman or Sailor whose story is told!

The Crossover Novel written by Rachel Falconer and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2008-10-21 with Literary Collections categories.
"Highly recommended" by Choice While crossover books such as Rowling's Harry Potter series have enjoyed enormous sales and media attention, critical analysis of crossover fiction has not kept pace with the growing popularity of this new category of writing and reading. Falconer remedies this lack with close readings of six major British works of crossover fiction, and a wide-ranging analysis of the social and cultural implications of the global crossover phenomenon. A uniquely in-depth study of the crossover novel, Falconer engages with a ground-breaking range of sources, from primary texts, to child and adult reader responses, to cultural and critical theory.
