Book Description
The secrets behind China's extraordinary educational system – good, bad, and ugly Chinese students' consistently stunning performance on the international PISA exams— where they outscore students of all other nations in math, reading, and science—have positioned China as a world education leader. American educators and pundits have declared this a "Sputnik Moment," saying that we must learn from China's education system in order to maintain our status as an education leader and global superpower. Indeed, many of the reforms taking hold in United States schools, such as a greater emphasis on standardized testing and the increasing importance of core subjects like reading and math, echo the Chinese system. We're following in China's footsteps—but is this the direction we should take? Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Dragon? by award-winning writer Yong Zhao offers an entertaining, provocative insider's account of the Chinese school system, revealing the secrets that make it both "the best and worst" in the world. Born and raised in China's Sichuan province and a teacher in China for many years, Zhao has a unique perspective on Chinese culture and education. He explains in vivid detail how China turns out the world's highest-achieving students in reading, math, and science—yet by all accounts Chinese educators, parents, and political leaders hate the system and long to send their kids to western schools. Filled with fascinating stories and compelling data, Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Dragon? offers a nuanced and sobering tour of education in China. Learn how China is able to turn out the world's highest achieving students in math, science, and reading Discover why, despite these amazing test scores, Chinese parents, teachers, and political leaders are desperate to leave behind their educational system Discover how current reforms in the U.S. parallel the classic Chinese system, and how this could help (or hurt) our students' prospects

Book Description
In this thrilling novel from a New York Times bestselling author, Alex Cross battles the most ruthless and powerful killer he has ever encountered: a predator known only as the Wolf. Alex Cross's first case since joining the FBI has his new colleagues baffled. Across the country, men and women are being kidnapped in broad daylight and then disappearing completely. These people are not being taken for ransom, Alex realizes. They are being bought and sold. And it looks as if a shadowy figure called the Wolf-a master criminal who has brought a new reign of terror to organized crime-is behind this business. Even as he admires the FBI's vast resources, Alex grows impatient with the Bureau's clumsiness and caution when it's time to move. A lone wolf himself, he has to go out on his own in order to track the Wolf and try to rescue some of the victims while they are still alive. As the case boils over, Alex is in hot water at home too. His ex-fiancee, Christine Johnson, comes back into his life-and not for the reasons he might have hoped.

Since the beginning of time, there has never been a sweeter, smarter, spunkier puppy than Sweetie, the Princess Puppy! Or so her human mother, Danielle Reid, states. "From the moment of her birth, the Princess Puppy won a place in my heart," confesses Reid, the author of the book series, "The Princess Puppy," which tells the true-life adventures of Sweetie. No doubt, most people have met a canine that seems to have a sparkle, a special charm that compels everyone to admire that special pup. The Princess Puppy is a little white Maltese dog, whose known heritage goes back over 3,000 years to the Island of Malta in the Mediterranean Sea. Legend claims that the ancient people of Malta fed their Maltese the finest delicacies from golden plates. But, this Princess Puppy does not eat from golden plates! She comes from a very hard working family. The Princess Puppy book series came into being when the author was searching for books to give as gifts to children ...books that would entertain while educating and providing the values and the virtues instilled into literature read by previous generations.

She'll witness the most damaged friendships as they try to mend, and drown in a darkness she tried so very hard to hide. Worst of all, the cruelest of bad boys will be there to drag her through the most unspeakable truths. Then, before she can run, he'll throw her down the rabbit hole that is the very heart of her fairytale town. This fairy tale is a trap. This is not a sweet story. This is the brutal truth of what really happened when the girl under the red hood met the big bad wolf.*WHO'S AFRAID OF THE BIG BAD WOLF? is the fourth Gods & Monsters Novel but can be read as a standalone. If you'd like to embrace the depth and magic that made this fairy tale possible-and meet some irresistible immortal men-it's recommended to read the entire Gods & Monsters trilogy first.

Then . . . you'll see my magic.*Contains triggers, rape, abuse, sex, strong language, dark themes
