My Friend, Sleep
Author: Teresa Paiva
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1456789538
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 61
Book Description
The Book Story: Once upon a time there was a family, father, mother and 3 kids, who did not sleep well. They were the Sparrows. Everything went wrong in their lives. Sorrows, whispers, lapses, fights and discussions were frequent and unpleasant. In despair they called Granny, since she knew things from the good old days. Granny came with a smile, bringing with her the enchanted world of Mister Sleep and his friends. Mister Sleep knew lots of magic tricks. Along with him, there were also fairs that could tell the children the proper bedtime and make them grow while asleep, becoming smarter and stronger. With Mister Sleep there were also some amazing guys who balanced children bodies and minds so that they learned more, ate better, were keen at sports, and most of all were quieter and happier. The Sparrows learned how to sleep, and discovered the pleasures of the trip with Mister Sleep. The Sparrow family smiled for their new life. This is the story of this book, in which science, magic and poetry play together a beautiful and realistic song. The Book framework: Sleep reduction, currently observed in all continents, increases significantly the risks of: hypertension, coronary disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity, insomnia, depression, cancer, accidents and death. Both together, Teresa Paiva and Helena Rebelo Pinto, worried with the terrible sleep habits of nowadays children and adolescents and the corresponding long term negative and deleterious impact upon youngsters physical, cognitive and emotional health, implemented a national program to raise sufficient awareness to change habits in significant proportions: it is called the Sleep and School Project. As a theoretical and conceptual backbone three books were written, each for a specific youngsters age. All of them are nowadays included in the National Reading Plan for Portuguese Schools. This book represents both a tool for teachers and parents and an enjoyment for children.

A Monster's Notes
Author: Laurie Sheck
Publisher: Knopf
ISBN: 0375711821
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 548
Book Description
“A remarkable creation, a baroque opera of grief, laced with lines of haunting beauty and profundity.” —The Washington Post Now in paperback, the bold, genre-defying book that asked: What if Mary Shelley had not invented Frankenstein's monster at all but had met him when she was a girl of eight, sitting by her mother's grave, and he came to her unbidden? In a riveting mix of fact and poetic license, Laurie Sheck gives us the "monster" in his own words: recalling how he was "made" and how Victor Frankenstein abandoned him; pondering the tragic tale of the Shelleys and the intertwining of his life with Mary's (whose fictionalized letters salt the narrative, along with those of her nineteenth-century intimates); taking notes on all aspects of human striving--from Gertrude Stein to robotics to the Northern explorers whose lonely quest mirrors his own--as he tries to understand the strange race that made yet shuns him, and to find his own freedom of mind.

Pages : 31
Book Description
It sounds silly enough, but Monster likes to make mustard (and eat it too!). In fact, everyone on the entire hill loves his mustard--well, everyone except Ram. Monster hopes that the mustard will help him become friends with Ram. Ram, on the other hand, has little interest; but with a bit of persistence and a lot of kindness from Monster, Ram learns that trying new things can create special bonds. Of course, Ram has to be reminded of just how valuable those bonds are but, in the end, sees clearly. Join Monster and Ram on their first journey together, their most important journey of all; and maybe the most sacred journey any of us take--befriending others with a genuine heart (whether you're a fan of mustard or not).
