Existential Crises in Educational Administration and Leadership
This book examines the theoretical foundations relevant to existential issues in educational leadership and management, taking inspiration from Munch’s painting The Scream. The book considers internationally relevant topics such as the growth of neoliberalism, globalisation, cultural shifts, forced migration and the digitalisation of the socio-cultural sphere and uniquely positions these crises as existential threats, rather than simply political, cultural, or social.

Jane and Paulette's Guide to Successful Yardsaleing
A tale you must read to believe Conrad Jones investigated the links between the Order of Nine Angels, a Satanic cult, and dozens of unsolved murders and missing children. When he uncovered the terrifying truth and exposed the cult's existence online, the Order tried desperately to silence him. Escaping arrest and an assassination attempt, Jones was forced to go on the run when two cult members were found dead and he was accused of their murder. Fleeing from both the cult and the police with the only friend he has left - Evie, his Staffordshire bull terrier - the pair leave behind a trail of dead occultists in their wake as they fight for their survival.

Re-Reading Famililes
Four years after publishing her provocative study, Reading Families: The Literate Lives of Urban Children, Compton-Lilly revisits the same group of urban students (then first graders, now fourth and fifth graders) and their families. Armed with rare longitudinal data from follow-up interviews and reading assessments, she once again upsets widespread misconceptions about reading and urban families. This eye-opening sequel uses case studies to explore important issues, such as students’ feelings of connection to their school; gender and schooling; parents’ experiences dealing with “the system”; high-stakes testing; and technology use at home. Building on past insights, this book: Uses an innovative approach to educational research to explore why urban students often have difficulty becoming proficient readers. Employs case studies to support a new construct called “reading capital.” Offers important recommendations for teaching in diverse communities. Models longitudinal qualitative research, describing the critical role it plays in studying a child’s experiences with school.
