Journey Great Barrier Reef
The scene is set as Dr. Rebecca Nelson, a world famous, Aborigine Marine Biologist, sets off to coordinate the Boat Voyage of Reconciliation, the crew of which plans to circumnavigate the Australian continent in support of the Aborigine cause. Rebecca expects a routine voyage but she is not aware of the adventures and deadly hazards she will encounter. First, Rory McTavish, a handsome, outback Reverend is assigned to the voyage by his Bishop and then the vessel, under Rebecca’s command, encounters a massive fish kill from Cyanide on its Shake Down cruise. Finally, the lives of everybody on board and particularly Rebecca’s grandmother, Loonoodir, Grand Leader of the Queensland Aboriginal Councils, are threatened by a high Government official who plans to scuttle the ship in order to prevent Rebecca from investigating the cause of the Cyanide spill she has encountered.
"Just Mary"
Just Mary and Maggie Muggins are names that will arouse memories in those who grew up with CBC radio and television in the 1940s and 1950s. The creator of these and other children’s shows, former Fredericton schoolteacher Mary Grannan, became a radio star when she hit the national airwaves in 1939, her popularity peaking when Maggie Muggins moved to television in 1955. Long before The Friendly Giant and Mr. Dressup appeared, her work helped to shape the legacy of gentle children’s programming on CBC. Building on her broadcasting success, Grannan published over thirty books, most runaway best-sellers. Attired in stylish dress, extravagant hats, and enormous earrings, she made frequent gue...

Dear Regina
Dear Regina offers a remarkable window into the early years of one of America’s best-known literary figures. While at the University of Iowa Writer’s Workshop from 1945 to 1948, Flannery O’Connor wrote to her mother Regina Cline O’Connor (who she addressed by her first name) nearly every day and sometimes more than once a day. The complete correspondence of more than six hundred letters is housed at the Stuart A. Rose Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library at Emory University. From that number, Miller selects 486 letters to show us a young adult learning to adjust to life on her own for the first time. In these letters, O’Connor shares details about living in a boardinghouse a...
The Practice of Authentic PLCs
This book for school leaders details how to implement authentic PLCs in schools and districts. Its aim is not to sell the work of PLCs, but rather to assist school leaders and teachers in developing the knowledge and tools necessary to do the work of building and sustaining real PLCs. Grounded in Venables' foundational training and work with the Coalition for Essential Schools, this book unites collaboration, facilitation, data inquiry, using protocols for student and teacher work, designing comprehensive formative assessments (CFAs) and planning data-based instructional intervention into one cohesive handbook. In a step-by-step manner, this book lays out how to establish and do the work of PLCs right the first time. And for schools already dabbling with teacher collaboration and who have instituted a version of PLCs-lite, this work can help existing groups go deeper in the doing the work of authentic, effective PLCs.
A Crime Too Perfect
Inspector Clive Channing, a young forensic crime investigator, becomes obsessed with the brutal murder of Loretta Taylor, a famous actress... A case that had gone cold for ten years, and described in the Press as the perfect crime- an assessment that Clive Channing totally rejects. His liaison with attractive Jenny Beauchemin and Aunt Maggie opens doors... He studies the case file every night before bedtime (as a private personal project) searching for the needle in the haystack that might reopen the case. His first great challenge is to break the murderer's alibi: "I've never set foot in that house or in her bedroom!" "We shall see," Clive whispers to himself.
