Barbie
Author: B. Geraldine Meggait
Publisher: Trafford Publishing
ISBN: 1426976046
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 174
Book Description
This book is a gift of love. My love for you will never die My prayers for you are forever before God. Neither love nor prayers have a shelf life! Barbie is a true story, as true as memory is can be. Barbie was the babyhood nickname of author Barbara Geraldine (Gerry) Meggait, ne Pouncy, and was not used past babyhood except by her father and brother, who called her Barb. As a little child, Gerry was nicknamed Baby, but she pronounced it as Barbie. In this memoir, Gerry portrays herself as the old woman and weaves her musings into the story of child Barbie. She looks at her own life through an objective lens, as if she were a kindly older person looking at Barbie growing up with her accompanying joys and sorrows. She grew up during some of Canadas darkest hours, as drought reduced the normally fertile lands of Manitoba to dust during the Great Depression. Her family, like many others, struggled to survive these impossible conditions. It was the strength of family, faith, love, and patience that pulled them through. Barbies story is filled with love, compassion, and understanding of a childhood and an era long gone. Gerry values her large familychildren, grandchildren, and great-grandchildrenand wrote this book as a legacy for them.

Education and Cultural Studies
Author: Henry A. Giroux
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135254990
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
Although the disciplines of critical education and cultural studies have traditionally occupied separate spaces as they have addressed different audiences, their concerns as well as the political and pedagogical nature of their work overlap. Education and Cultural Studies brings members of these two groups together to demonstrate how a critical understanding of culture and education can transgressively implement broad political change. All written from within this framework of cultural studies and critical pedagogy, the contributors illuminate the possibilities and opportunities open to practicing educators. In eschewing a romantic utopianism, and in assessing the current climate of what is attainable and practical, this book teaches us how we can begin to translate and perhaps even transform the vexing social problems that confront us daily. Contributors include Carol Becker, Harvey J. Kaye, David Theo Goldberg, Jeffrey Williams, Sharon Todd, Douglas Kellner, Deborah Britzman, Jacqueline Reid-Walsh, Claudia Mitchell, Cameron McCarthy, Mike Hill, Susan Searls, Stanley Aronowitz, Douglas Noble, Kakie Urch, Henry Giroux, David Trend, and Robert Mikilitsch.

Growing Up on Fox Street
Author: Barbara Rodgers
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN:
Category : Young Adult Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 177
Book Description
Rodgers, Growing Up on Fox Street Page 22 of 179 Growing Up on Fox Street is full of warm and uplifting stories from an era gone by. Informative, nostalgic, and engaging at its core, it is written from the viewpoint of a little girl enjoying carefree youthful days with her brothers, cousins, and friends in a small American town during the 1960s. It was a time when moms stayed home and parents allowed their children to play freely in the neighborhood. There was only one car in the driveway, and family mealtimes meant eating home-cooked meals together around the kitchen table. There were bikes to ride, ball games to play, creeks to swim in, forts to build, and neighborhood quarrels to settle. Families went to church on Sundays and Vacation Bible School in the summer. The boys played Little League Baseball as the parents cheered them on from the bleachers. They watched parades every year in town and anticipated Santa's visit and Christmas festivities each December. Even though the times are different today, for the Fox Street kids (and all kids everywhere), the idea of growing up seemed so far away. Their personalities were shaped by their families and friends and the world around them. It is their childhood memories that now seem far away. Growing Up on Fox Street features charming illustrations by the author and helpful annotations for the younger reader. The reflection questions for each chapter will help the reader tell their own story and stimulate meaningful conversations with family members about their childhood recollections.
