We're Going To Live Forever

Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
What does a fitness class that is now in its eighty-sixth year have to do with retaining your mental capacity well into your nineties? Why do these people eat what they want, ignore the experts on the Mediterranean diet, the five a day; and drink tea to hydrate themselves? Why do they value the company of others above the exercises? How do they unwittingly practice mental disciplines espoused by the world’s top neuroscientists on defeating dementia? ‘We train the right side and the left side of the brain’, says Mary McDaid from County Wicklow. ‘We can do this forever’, said Sally Floyd from Edinburgh. ‘I am going to live to be a hundred’, says John Higson from Bolton; and now at ninety-five looks like he’s going to make it. ‘My Grandmother said to me: if you rest you rust’, says Derek Craynor from Manchester. How right grannie was. These people, and many others like them, have steered and shaped this book. I just listened, put the pieces together and penned the narrative. Their stories reveal their secrets to eternal youth. Read on to share in those secrets. We’re Going to Live Forever was inspired by the people of this book and a television programme of the 1970’s called Fame. It would seem almost incidental that the best brains in the world agree with what these people do and how they do it, and why it works. I, on the other hand, just watched it unfold, joined in the fun, and started a journey of a lifetime – Ken Heathcote.

Timo's Garden

Publisher: Pajama Press Inc.
ISBN: 1927485843
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 52
Book Description
At first, the Great, Green Garden Tour sounds like a lot of fun. Before long, though, young rabbit Timo starts to find that it’s a lot of pressure. Can he really call his garden “great?” Maybe it needs one little change…or a few… or a lot. Anxious to make his garden measure up, Timo forgets to take time out for anyone else. Luckily, his friends know just how to remind him of the value of being there for others: by being there for him when he needs it most. In musical prose filled with word play and whimsy, Victoria Allenby invites young readers to come along as Timo sets to work with a skip and a song, meets trouble with a sniff and a sigh, and triumphs with a smile that’s as bright as the sun. Dean Griffiths’ charming illustrations are both classic and fresh, infusing each animal character with personality and life. Complete with an illustrated glossary of flowers, this beautifully-designed early reader might just be worthy of the word “great.”

READ WITH JENNA BOOK CLUB PICK AS FEATURED ON TODAY • “I’ve been an Allegra Goodman fan for years, but Sam is hands down my new favorite. I loved this powerful and endearing portrait of a girl who must summon deep within herself the grit and wisdom to grow up.”—Lily King, New York Times bestselling author of Writers & Lovers What happens to a girl’s sense of joy and belonging—to her belief in herself—as she becomes a woman? This unforgettable portrait of coming-of-age offers subtle yet powerful reflections on class, parenthood, addiction, lust, and the irrepressible power of dreams. “There is a girl, and her name is Sam.” So begins Allegra Goodman’s moving and wise new novel. Sam is seven years old and living in Beverley, Massachusetts. She adores her father, though he isn’t around much. Her mother struggles to make ends meet, and never fails to remind Sam that if she studies hard and acts responsibly, adulthood will be easier—more secure and comfortable. But comfort and security are of little interest to Sam. She doesn’t fit in at school, where the other girls have the right shade of blue jeans and don’t question the rules. She doesn’t care about jeans or rules. All she wants to climb. Hanging from the highest limbs of the tallest trees, scaling the side of a building, Sam feels free. As a teenager, Sam begins to doubt herself. She yearns to be noticed, even as she wants to disappear. When her climbing coach takes an interest in her, his attention is more complicated than she anticipated. She resents her father’s erratic behavior, but she grieves after he’s gone. And she resists her mother’s attempts to plan for her future, even as that future draws closer. The simplicity of this tender, emotionally honest novel is what makes it so powerful. Sam by Allegra Goodman will break your heart, but will also leave you full of hope.
