Above Water

When my parents signed me up to Trojan Swimming Club, they had no idea of the evil behind Gibney's interest in me. As a thirteen-year-old, who knew nothing but kindness and love, I was ill-equipped to understand what was happening as he insidiously dominated my thinking and isolated me from anyone who might come between us. The process of entrapment was quick, and in full view of my family and team-mates I became a prisoner - bullied, manipulated and abused, unnoticed by those close to me. So complete was Gibney's control of me that not only could I not see a way out, it didn't even occur to me to look for one. At age thirteen, Trish Kearney's idyllic childhood was abruptly ended when her sw...

Critical Praxis Research

Critical Praxis Research (CPR) is a teacher research methodology designed to bridge the divide between practitioner and scholar, drawing together many strands to explain the research process not just as something teacher researchers do, but as a fundamental part of who teacher researchers are. Emphasizing the researcher over the method, CPR embraces and amplifies the skills and passions teachers naturally bring to their research endeavours. Emerging from the tradition of critical pedagogy, Critical Praxis Research: Breathing New Life into Research Methods for Teachers transcends longstanding debates over quantitative vs. qualitative and scholar vs. practitioner research. The text examines th...

This book comes with a journal so that you can work through your changes. Every seven years events occur in our life that change us and can shake us to the core. Ideally, we would heal immediately and just move on in life. It is not that easy We end up with baggage, and this baggage is not apparent until you find yourself in a similar situation where you find history repeating itself. This is not a book about blaming your mother, father, sister, brother, teacher or whoever said those things to hurt you or acted in a way that scared you. This is a book of responsibility and learning that we are responsible for our own upbringing and that we have the ability to change the actions from our past. I hope you enjoy this book; the feedback has been positive with people stating that they read the book and put it down for a while as they are not ready to deal with the issues that come up. Once they do, they reflect a much more peaceful personality and an understanding of why these 'events' have occurred.

Just Pretending

A debut short story collection from one of Canada's most exciting new Aboriginal voices. "In our family, it was Trish who was Going To Be Trouble; I was Such a Good Girl." At times haunting, at times hilarious, Just Pretending explores the moments in life that send us down pathways predetermined and not-yet-forged. These are the liminal, defining moments that mark irreversible transitions n girl to mother, confinement to freedom, wife to murderer. They are the melodramatic car-crash moments n the outcomes both horrific and too fascinating to tear our eyes from. And they are the unnoticed, infinitely tiny moments, seemingly insignificant (even ridiculous) yet holding the power to alter, to transform, to make strange. What links these stories is a sense of characters working n both with success and without, through action or reaction n to separate reality from perception and to make these moments into their lives' new truths.

New York Times–Bestselling Author: You can’t hurry love . . . “No other author manages to make us cry quite so achingly and laugh quite so hard.” —NPR Millie Barnes is this close to finally achieving her perfect life. Rewarding job as a local doctor on Cape Cod? Check. Cute cottage of her very own? Check. Adorable dog suitable for walks past attractive locals? Check! All she needs is for golden boy and former crush—former intense, obsessive, years-long crush—Joe Carpenter to notice her, and Millie will be set. But perfection isn’t as easy as it looks—especially when Sam Nickerson, a local policeman, is so distracting. He is definitely not part of her master plan.
