Описание:

In the Field Between Us is a friendship in poems, an epistolary project by Molly McCully Brown and Susannah Nevison that ponders disability and the possibility of belonging in the aftermath of lifelong medical intervention. In the beginning, the poem-letters express, in gorgeous harmony, the psychic and physiological complexities of surviving remedy. As the book unfolds, the writers encounter a natural world around them that increasingly seems to mirror the traumas they have endured. Out of its tracing of innumerable scars, this book emits a perseverance, a spirit of communion, and a hopeful resolve that rises out of the poets' attention to detail and their profound connection to one another.

Описание: With her sketchbook labeled "My Inventions "and her father's
toolbox, Mattie could make almost anything - toys, sleds, and
a foot warmer. When she was just twelve years old, Mattie
designed a metal guard to prevent shuttles from shooting off
textile looms and injuring workers. As an adult, Mattie
invented the machine that makes the square-bottom paper
bags we still use today. However, in court, a man claimed the
invention was his, stating that she "could not possibly
understand the mechanical complexities." Marvelous Mattie
proved him wrong, and over the course of her life earned the
title of "the Lady Edison."
With charming pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations, this
introduction to one of the most prolific female inventors will
leave readers inspired.

Описание: The Grown-Up's Guide series features how-to projects, creative prompts, and crafting activities that will inspire you and your little ones to spend hours of messy fun together. Now you can learn the fun, trendy paint pouring technique--and teach your kids to do it too

Paint pouring, also known as fluid art, uses acrylic paint and a variety of everyday tools to create colorful, abstract art poured on canvases and other surfaces. With The Grown-Up's Guide to Painting With Kids, prepare to get messy--some techniques require touching or even hitting the paint--but that's half the fun Kids will love the tactile nature of paint pouring, while you and the other grown-ups in their lives will feel good knowing that your children are exercising their creative and artistic playful side. Consider doing the projects outside, where it's OK to make a mess

The book opens with an introduction to the affordable tools required to pour paint, from cups and canvases to stir sticks, paper, reusable straws, and more. Older kids--with the help of their parents, of course--might even learn to use a heat torch to create the cell-like structure typical in fluid art. Techniques are outlined so that you and your children can read about the pouring process before getting started. Then there are chapters on color mixing tips, instructions for finishing paintings with varnish and other materials, and much more. The step-by-step projects that follow are fun, easy, and easily customizable by color, surface, and skill level. They can even be done on surfaces other than canvas, such as coasters, pieces of wood, gift boxes, and much more.

Kids of all ages will love pouring paint. You can help too, ensuring family togetherness for hours as you and your children learn to create colorful, abstract art together with The Grown-Up's Guide to Painting With Kids.

Описание:

As I was writing about my surprise, unplanned retirement, I came to realize I needed to go back into my past in order to answer my questions about my present and to move into my future. I needed to find some peace about this latest transition. I had reached the top of the pay scale, and my principal, needing to reinforce her power status, recently pushed me into an early, unplanned retirement, which is the basis of this book. Her constant harassment tore me into pieces, but God was able to use this transition along with some of my others to reassemble the pieces and guide me into a new life. Transitions may involve an end, but they can also usher in a bright new beginning
