Описание: "In their previous landmark volumes . . . Harris and Emberley established themselves as the purveyors of reader-friendly, straightforward information on human sexuality for readers as young as seven. Here they successfully tackle the big questions . . . for even younger kids." - The Horn Book (starred review) Young children are curious about almost everything, especially their bodies. And young children are not afraid to ask questions. What makes me a girl? What makes me a boy? Why are some parts of girls' and boys' bodies the same and why are some parts different? How was I made? Where do babies come from? Is it true that a stork brings babies to mommies and daddies? IT'S NOT THE STORK helps answer these endless and perfectly normal questions that preschool, kindergarten, and early elementary school children ask about how they began. Through lively, comfortable language and sensitive, engaging artwork, Robie H. Harris and Michael Emberley address readers in a reassuring way, mindful of a child's healthy desire for straightforward information. Two irresistible cartoon characters, a curious bird and a squeamish bee, provide comic relief and give voice to the full range of emotions and reactions children may experience while learning about their amazing bodies. Vetted and approved by science, health, and child development experts, the information is up-to-date, age-appropriate, and scientifically accurate, and always aimed at helping kids feel proud, knowledgeable, and comfortable about their own bodies, about how they were born, and about the family they are part of. Back matter includes an index.

Автор: Stork Bill Название: I Have Never Failed...: But I Do Have Extensive Experience with Things That Absolutely Won`t Work ISBN: 1942586892 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781942586890 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 15590.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Throughout his life, Dr. Bill has found guidance in the blue-collar adaptations of centuries-old wisdom: I have never failed, but I have extensive experience with things that do not work; there is no such thing as bad weather, just a poor choice of clothes; and shut up and do your work. He has modeled the exemplary lives of his parents and been tailwinded by the unconditional support of his wife, Sheila. Dr. Bill shares stories about OCD Shepherd crosses and a German Shorthaired Pointer with three testicles. There are tributes to a one-eyed mechanic, the Pike County Jesus, and Certified Nursing Assistants. Dr. Bill shines a light on the plight of loneliness among the elderly, calls into question the dehumanizing effect of technology, and respectfully opposes The Wall Street Journal and Princeton Professor Emeritus Harry W. Frankfurt. Dr. Bill lives each day to earn the words said, and the tears shed at a Baptist church in Atlanta in April 1999. The two hundred stories he's written leading up to ADB were only a warmup to properly honor the legacy of The Amazing Dick Bass.

Every year as the seasons turned, the birds would depart heavenward, but then mysteriously return, seemingly young again. Could Earthbound humans to do the same? With this question, the human adventure began.
No way was found to follow the birds but the haunting question endured and in time our ancestors would replace storks and other birds by "Eland," starry counterpart of the greatest of the African antelopes. For at the beginning of spring, the time of year when all is reborn, Eland would seemingly walk up the Milky Way to the abode of the Hereafter. Though unable to fly with Stork, humans might perhaps follow the tracks of Eland, or so it was hoped.
Related beliefs have been shared since earliest prehistory. The sharing of these beliefs and their accompanying hopes is what makes us human.
Reconstruction of our most distant past became possible by joining accounts given by Bushman (San) who lived in far southern Africa during the 19th century with information from present-day Hadza hunter-gatherers living in northern Tanzania just south of the Equator.
The Bushman and the Hadza have been separated from one another for tens of thousands of years and the genetic differences between them is apparently the greatest among any pair of human populations anywhere. Their separation may be the earliest among surviving human groups. Yet their most deeply held beliefs are the same.
Humans have a single biological heritage. It now appears that we also have a single cultural heritage.
