The Enchanted Places
Author: Christopher Milne
Publisher: Pan Macmillan
ISBN: 1447269845
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 161
Book Description
Now the subject of major Disney film starring Ewan McGregor, this is Christopher Robin in his own words. Millions of readers throughout the world have grown up with the stories and verses of A. A. Milne; have envied Christopher Robin in his enchanted world; laughed at Pooh - a bear of very little brain - and worried about Piglet and his problems. But what was it like to be the small boy with the long hair, smock and wellington boots? At the age of fifty-four Christopher Milne recalled his early childhood, remembering 'the enchanted places' where he used to play in Sussex. The Hundred Acre Wood, Galleon's Lap and Poohsticks Bridge existed not only in the stories and poems but were part of the real world surrounding the Milne home at Cotchford Farm. With deftness and artistry Milne draws a memorable portrait of his father, and an evocative reconstruction of a happy childhood in London and Sussex. The Enchanted Places is a story told with humour and modesty.

Postmodern Pooh
Author: Frederick Crews
Publisher: Macmillan + ORM
ISBN: 1429930756
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
“A brilliant and savagely witty skewing of the combatants on all sides of the academic culture wars . . . pitch-perfect . . . incisive and hilarious.” —The Washington Post Decades ago, a slim parody of academic literary criticism called The Pooh Perplex became a surprise bestseller. Here, Frederick Crews has written an ingenious new satire in the same vein. Purporting to be the proceedings of a forum on Pooh convened at the Modern Language Association’s annual convention, Postmodern Pooh brilliantly parodies the academic fads and figures that hold sway in a new millennium, from poststructuralist Marxism to cultural studies. “Crews made me laugh until I wept.” —Philadelphia Inquirer “A fresh takedown of lit-crit theories.” —The New York Times “Sparkling wit and brilliant parodies.” —Los Angeles Times “Really good academic fun.” —The Boston Globe “Crews sinks his fangs into more recent movements, such as deconstructionism, new historicism, radical feminism, trauma studies, postcolonialism, and cybercriticism [and] magnanimously skewer[s] radicals and archconservatives alike . . . will keep anyone interested in literary scholarship in stitches.” —Library Journal

The Shaping of Thought
Author: Frank T. Lyman
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1475830335
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 121
Book Description
The Shaping of Thought: A Teacher’s Guide to Metacognitive Mapping and CriticalThinking in Response to Literature provides a strategic and structured approach to the use of cognitive mapping in response to literature. The allied metacognitive strategy of ThinkTrix, incorporating seven basic thinking types, or mind actions, has emerged from elementary student-created cognitive maps known as ThinkLinks, a student friendly term. Students had labeled their thinking on the ThinkLinks and from the hundreds of work samples, the seven types of thinking were identified. Placed in a matrix with focal points, the thinking types became the ThinkTrix. Originally thought to be cues for teacher questioning, students soon took on the mind actions for their own questioning, responding, and mapping. The book offers a procedural and exemplified guide to metacognitive mapping and is built upon the central purpose of student-generated connections between life and literature. Once teachers and students have adopted or adapted the suggested framework and strategies in The Shaping of Thought, they will always have visual andaware representation of thinking as a learning tool. Problem solving, decision making, inquiring, and creating will have joined with an indispensible means to lifetime learning and to the goal of constructing what Jerome Bruner called “structures of knowledge”. Along with a teaching strategy, the book includes strong philosophical underpinnings with “The Kaleidoscope of Learning”, teacher/student tools, numerous activities, and samples of student work. Taken seriously, the Guide will deepen the understanding of literature and life in the direction of the “Big Ideas”, as envisioned by McTighe and Wiggins and by so many teachers.
