The neurosurgeon said, “Kati will be able to learn and do things. She’ll go at her own pace, but it won’t be fast. She will always be a turtle in a racehorse world.” Moving, thinking, and speaking more slowly than the rest of the world is not all roses. So I wrote Turtle in a Racehorse World to tell the racehorses of the world how they can help the turtles like me, and see the good in all who live around them, so the world can be a kinder place.
Christmas Connections is the tender story of two anxious sisters: one in heaven longing for a name and family, and Suzannah on earth trying to keep her family together. Suzannah's goal is to bring about the perfect Christmas for her despondent parents; and fulfill a promise to an angel. Her efforts are rewarded with miracles -- one good deed at a time -- rippling through the lives of others living in Hometown, bringing heaven and earth together in a holiday story of renewal, hope, love, and spiritual connections. Christmas Connections is a story to be read by young and old again and again for Christmases forever!
Thirteen-year-old Rinnie Cumberland wasn't afraid to sleep outside in her brothers' old tree house--but maybe she should have been. There'd been many changes taking place around Raven Cove Lake. There were plenty of unanswered questions. Why wouldn't her neighbor speak to her? Who was the strange boy on the shore? And what really happened to her mother's cat? A desperate cry for help coming through the crisp, Alaska morning air plunged Rinnie right into the middle of the Raven Cove Mystery.
The increase in reported levels of stress and burnout in teachers across Europe highlights the importance of teachers' social and emotional competencies and diversity awareness (SEDA). Since teaching is an extremely social and emotional process where diversity, if recognised, is embraced at every step, we believe that supporting teachers to develop SEDA competencies is the key to shaping not only the positive relationships of living and learning together in classrooms, but also, in living and learning together in society. Once SEDA competencies are supported, a positive shift can occur at the level of individual teacher, classroom, school and society level. The book is our way of experimentally demonstrating how teachers' SEDA can be supported across Europe (Volume I) and how policy can support these processes (Volume II). Volume I focuses on the innovative conceptual overlap of social and emotional competencies and diversity awareness and experimentally test it across European countries - with an emphasis on conceptualisation, implementation and evaluation processes.
