Lion Above the Door Hachette Children's Book
Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna
From Onjali Q. Rauf, the award-winning and best-selling author of The Boy at the Back of the Class, comes an incredible story about missing histories and the concept of a universal family, told with humour and heart. Leo and his best friend Sangeeta are the odd ones out in their school.But as Leo's dad is always telling him, it's because they're special. Only thing is, if they're so special, how come they never see anyone who looks like them in their school history books?Then, on a class trip to a nearby cathedral, Leo's attention is drawn to a large marble slab high above the doors of the hall. Right there, bang in the middle of a list of war heroes, Leo finds himself staring at something incredible: his own name.Desperate to know who this other Leo was, the two friends embark on a search. And together, they begin to uncover missing stories from the past, ones which they are determined to put back into their rightful place in the pages of history. Touching on themes of historical racism, The Lion Above the Door shines a light on the stories our history books have yet to contain and the power of friendships that can last through generations.The first edition of this book also contains a special collection of historical photos and stories of real life forgotten heroes from World War Two.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A searing, deeply moving memoir of illness and recovery that traces one young woman s journey from diagnosis to remission to re-entry into normal life from the author of the Life, Interrupted column in The New York TimesONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The New York Times Book Review, The Washington Post, Bloomberg, The Rumpus, Library Journal, Booklist I was immersed for the whole ride and would follow Jaouad anywhere. . . . Her writing restores the moon, lights the way as we learn to endure the unknown. Chanel Miller, The New York Times Book Review Beautifully crafted . . . affecting . . . a transformative read . . . Jaouad s insights about the self, connectedness, uncertainty and time speak to all of us. The Washington Post In the summer after graduating from college, Suleika Jaouad was preparing, as they say in commencement speeches, to enter the real world. She had fallen in love and moved to Paris to pursue her dream of becoming a war correspondent. The real world she found, however, would take her into a very different kind of conflict zone. It started with an itch first on her feet, then up her legs, like a thousand invisible mosquito bites. Next came the exhaustion, and the six-hour naps that only deepened her fatigue. Then a trip to the doctor and, a few weeks shy of her twenty-third birthday, a diagnosis: leukemia, with a 35 percent chance of survival. Just like that, the life she had imagined for herself had gone up in flames. By the time Jaouad flew home to New York, she had lost her job, her apartment, and her independence. She would spend much of the next four years in a hospital bed, fighting for her life and chronicling the saga in a column for The New York Times. When Jaouad finally walked out of the cancer ward after countless rounds of chemo, a clinical trial, and a bone marrow transplant she was, according to the doctors, cured. But as she would soon learn, a cure is not where the work of healing ends; it s where it begins. She had spent the past 1,500 days in desperate pursuit of one goal to survive. And now that she d done so, she realized that she had no idea how to live. How would she reenter the world and live again? How could she reclaim what had been lost? Jaouad embarked with her new best friend, Oscar, a scruffy terrier mutt on a 100-day, 15,000-mile road trip across the country. She set out to meet some of the strangers who had written to her during her years in the hospital: a teenage girl in Florida also recovering from cancer; a teacher in California grieving the death of her son; a death-row inmate in Texas who d spent his own years confined to a room. What she learned on this trip is that the divide between sick and well is porous, that the vast majority of us will travel back and forth between these realms throughout our lives. Between Two Kingdoms is a profound chronicle of survivorship and a fierce, tender, and inspiring exploration of what it means to begin again.

Option B EBURY PRESS
Literatura obcojÄzyczna
From Facebookâs COO and Whartonâs top-rated professor, the #1 New York Times best-selling authors of Lean In and Originals: a powerful, inspiring, and practical book about building resilience and moving forward after lifeâs inevitable setbacks. After the sudden death of her husband, Sheryl Sandberg felt certain that she and her children would never feel pure joy again. âI was in âthe void,ââ (she writes), âA vast emptiness that fills your heart and lungs and restricts your ability to think or even breathe.â Her friend Adam Grant, a psychologist at Wharton, told her there are concrete steps people can take to recover and rebound from life-shattering experiences. We are not born with a fixed amount of resilience. It is a muscle that everyone can build. Option B combines Sherylâs personal insights with Adamâs eye-opening research on finding strength in the face of adversity. Beginning with the gut-wrenching moment when she finds her husband, Dave Goldberg, collapsed on a gym floor, Sheryl opens up her heart - and her journal - to describe the acute grief and isolation she felt in the wake of his death. But Option B goes beyond Sherylâs loss to explore how a broad range of people have overcome hardships including illness, job loss, sexual assault, natural disasters, and the violence of war. Their stories reveal the capacity of the human spirit to persevere...And to rediscover joy. Resilience comes from deep within us and from support outside us. Even after the most devastating events, it is possible to grow by finding deeper meaning and gaining greater appreciation in our lives. Option B illuminates how to help others in crisis, develop compassion for ourselves, raise strong children, and create resilient families, communities, and workplaces. Many of these lessons can be applied to everyday struggles, allowing us to brave whatever lies ahead. Two weeks after losing her husband, Sheryl was preparing for a father-child activity. âI want Dave,â (she cried). Her friend replied, âOption A is not available,â and then promised to help her make the most of Option B. We all live some form of Option B. This book will help us all make the most of it.

Unlock the more straightforward side of Tropic of Cancer with this concise and insightful summary and analysis!This engaging summary presents an analysis of Tropic of Cancer by Henry Miller, which is closely based on the author's time as a struggling writer in Paris, when he drifted from friend to friend, scraped together a living through borrowing and mundane jobs, and spent much of his time drinking and womanising. The novel's explicit sexual content meant that it was considered pornographic when it was first written; consequently, it was the subject of multiple obscenity trials and was initially banned in the US. However, it garnered praise from writers including George Orwell, and is now recognised as one of the most influential books of the 20th century.Find out everything you need to know about Tropic of Cancer in a fraction of the time!This in-depth and informative reading guide brings you:
