Mikey and Me
Author: Teresa Sullivan
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 163152271X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
When Mikey is young, the Sullivans are a closely knit unit, all of them devoted to caring for her. But as Mikey grows older, she also grows increasingly violent. By the time she’s twelve, institutionalization is the only available option—and without the shared purpose of caring for Mikey, the family begins to unravel. As her family falls apart, Teresa searches for relief and connection during a time of sweeping cultural change. Lacking maturity or guidance, she makes choices that lead her down a sometimes-perilous path. But regardless of the circumstances at home and the tumult in their individual lives, the Sullivans are united in their love and concern for Mikey. In Mikey and Me, Teresa interweaves her exceptional sister’s journey with her own, affirming the grace and brutality of Mikey’s life, and its indelible effect on her family. Unflinching and insightful, this is a deep exploration of the relationship between two sisters—one blind, with profound developmental disabilities, unable to voice her own story, and the other with the heart and understanding to express it exquisitely for her.

Book Description
Nikky wrote this book with the intention of providing valuable information to pet owners who are navigating the challenging path of Palliative and hospice care for their older and ailing pets. It's a resource for those who may be new to the concept of Palliative and hospice care or seeking a deeper understanding of how it works. My motivation stems from a personal experience with my first dog that required hospice care. At the time, I was unsure of how to best support my pet and ended up relying solely on veterinary decisions. However, I soon realized that there were many ways I could enhance my pet's well-being at home.

More Adventures of Little Mikey
Author: Anthony Harris
Publisher: Gatekeeper Press
ISBN: 1662913753
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 50
Book Description
More Adventures of Little Mikey is the second in a series of chapter books, featuring Little Mikey and his schoolmates. The first book in the series, The Adventures of Little Mikey, highlighted character traits that improve social emotional learning (SEL). The impetus for creating this series is to provide an additional tool to support parents, teachers, counselors, and other educators as they engage students in social emotional learning, which is regarded by educators as foundational and critical to the academic success of students. More Adventures of Little Mikey continues to illustrate the importance of children displaying strong character traits such as kindness, respect, generosity, fairness, compassion, unselfishness, and self-awareness. At the end of each chapter, there are several questions that encourage children to think more about those character traits. Book Review 1: “Children rarely if ever learn civility, respect, kindness, and compassion from lectures by adults, but children of all ages can and do learn these positive character traits from good examples. And sometimes these good examples can be other children that they get to know in timely and age-appropriate fiction like More Adventures of Little Mikey. In this book, three friends from diverse backgrounds navigate their school year by helping their classmates learn some important life lessons about how to treat others while also learning STEM skills. Independent readers will enjoy this book on their own, and younger readers will enjoy having it read aloud to them by adults. And each chapter offers gentle but very timely lessons for readers of all ages.” -- Dr. Allison Gilmore, former college administrator and educator Book Review 2: “More Adventures of Little Mikey has many different teachable moments that parents can use as talking points with their kids. The reoccurring theme is treating people with respect, no matter the differences, is a much-needed message in today’s society. I like that the examples used are everyday issues that kids face: accepting ownership for their actions; welcoming a new student to their class; and helping others in need. It sparked some conversation ideas for me to have with my daughter.” -- Ms. Latoya Norman, mother Book Review 3: “As a reader, I truly enjoyed diving into More Adventures of Little Mikey, the second installment of the Little Mikey series. As a teacher and public school administrator, I value the message and social-emotional growth of the characters. The relatable characters grow with the reader as they struggle with common problems of today’s children. The social-emotional learning (SEL) elements are an excellent tool for educators and parents to share with the important children in their life. Each chapter is followed by a series of thought-provoking questions that allow children to talk through the complexities of their world. Little Mikey is a boy who makes mistakes but is guided by strong role models who help him grow and develop strong character traits through each learning experience. This engaging book shares tales of relevant issues in a way that is safe for children in both the home and the classroom. More Adventures of Little Mikey would be a great addition to any library and certainly belongs in our SEL toolkit.” -- Ms. Tracy Horne, Elementary School Principal

Book Description
Little Mikey is 10 years old and lives with his mom, dad, and sister. His full name is Michael Vincent Harris, but many people call him Little Mikey because, in his first-grade class, there were two Mikeys – one big and one little. Since he was smaller than Big Mikey, his friends started calling him Little Mikey and the other Mikey, Big Mikey. Nearly every day, whether at school, at home, or at play, Little Mikey seems to get himself into some type of mischief or trouble. The mischief and trouble he gets into doesn’t cause anyone to get hurt. He never bullies anyone. He never uses foul language. And he never uses violence to solve problems. But he makes decisions that sometimes cause him to get into trouble with his parents and teachers. When Little Mikey makes a mistake and finds himself in trouble, he knows to follow three steps: 1. Admit that he made the mistake. 2. Apologize. 3. Promise to try not to make the same mistake again. Each school day, his teachers, counselors, and principals remind him and the other kids of those three important steps, which are not intended to punish. Instead, they are intended to help them to become better at resolving conflict and making learning more fun and exciting. Join Little Mikey, his family, and his best friend, Ricardo, in a series of stories about Little Mikey’s daily adventures as a 10-year old kid. Some of the stories will make you laugh and cause you to think that Little Mikey is a really cool kid. When one of his mistakes makes him feel sad, you might even feel sorry for him. Some of the stories might make you ask: What would I have done if I were Little Mikey? Why did Little Mikey do that? What could Little Mikey have done to avoid getting into trouble and mischief?
