Pokey The Playful Whale is a fictionalized version of a true story. It was in 1966, when the media in Virginia and the nation burst forth with the news that a whale, presumably from the Atlantic Ocean, had wandered up the historic James River and was resting on a sandbar or frolicking in the water near Charles City. For a week or more headlines, such as the following, were seen or heard in the media: April 11, "New Species in the James: It's a whale, No Less!" April 12, "Creature Still Stranded" "River's High Tide Hides Whale Awhile: "April 13, "Whale Seen Again--Headed For Richmond;" "Whale Tied To Tree by Rope," Whale, in River Shot 12 times, Left to Die." April 14, "Whale Found Very Much Alive. Swimming in James River Today." April 15, Whale is Dead; Towing Due; " April 16, "Pokey Rides to Burial in His Ocean Home." These headlines summarize briefly a true story of a whale, whose visit to Virginia fascinated students and teachers. The author, LaVerne Byrd Smith at that time, was a Professor of Education at Virginia State University in Ettrick, Virginia and supervisor of student teachers. She was delighted to see classrooms she visited come alive with artwork, crafts, reports, discussions, and other learning experiences including questions and research about whales and about Virginia's James River. This event and student enthusiasm motivated Byrd Smith, a devotee of Dr. Seuss, to create in rhyme, a fictionalized version of the true story. Pokey The Playful Whale was first published in 1980 in Popcorn Magazine. An un-illustrated version was published in an anthology of Byrd Smith's poems entitled, Poetry for Growing: Kindergarten Through "Kollege" published in 2004 by First Books Library (now known as AuthorHouse). Illustrations by Les Harper bring Pokey alive again.

Rachael Goodman thought she had life pretty well figured out after she finished law school, took a job as a Navy lawyer and became a JAG lieutenant, junior grade. Now she's not so sure as she goes to her first duty station in the Philippines and learns the truth behind the recruiting pitch "It's not just a job, it's an adventure." While keeping the world safe for democracy, Rachel is finding out first hand that sailors and Marines have a well-deserved reputation. But while she's keeping the world safe, who's going to keep her safe? As one of the few single American women on a base with lots of sailors and Marines a very long way from home, she's getting lots of attention. And the new love of her life, a Navy SEAL named BB, is giving her a quick education in romance and military life. There's lots of adventure as Rachael navigates here way through courtrooms, barrooms and the world, finds out about the Navy, Navy SEALS, San Miguel beer, and gains perspective into affairs of the heart. Rachael has lots of growing up to do and lots of new experiences are in store. If only she can survive without becoming just another lawyer joke!

Early Childhood Curriculum for All Learners: Integrating Play and Literacy Activities is designed to teach early childhood professionals about the latest research on play and early literacy and then to show them practical methods for adapting this research to everyday classroom practices that will encourage the development of learning skills. The authors link solid, play-based research to specific developmentally appropriate practices. By combining these two areas, the text demonstrates that academic learning and play activities are highly compatible, and that children can and do develop academic skills through play. In addition, the text focuses on socio-dramatic play, a recently acknowledged, essential aspect of child-initiated play interactions. It provides specific strategies that link these interactive behaviors with the early academic skills needed for the initial primary grades. Implementation of the information presented in this book will enable children to experience a richer transition into primary education classrooms.

In Simon the Self-Control Seal, children ages 3-6 become aware of their bodies and impulses by learning a technique for self-control that can be used in any situation or environment. Kids love to learn through playing and Simon starts the learning and leads by example. Some children take a longer time to develop this skill, so parents can help by setting clear expectations for behavior, identifying their child's feelings and rewarding good self-control. If your child is struggling with self-control due to hyperactivity, anxiousness, spatial awareness or immaturity this book is a great tool. Simon is a seal who always makes good choices because he uses self control. If you're having a little trouble following the rules and making good choices, you should use Simon's little trick for controlling himself. He sings his little song; "Stop, think, and breathe, and make the right choice"! After you learn this trick, you will have a great time everywhere you go. As one of the many Demby's Playful Parables, Simon the Self Control Seal let's you know how to always make right choices as you become an example for all the other students at your school. Then maybe someone will write a book about YOU!
