Pages : 34
Book Description
Seven-year-old Teresa had a great plan: she and her 11-year-old brother would run away to Africa to become martyrs and thereby go straight to Heaven to be saints. But alas! The two were not long on their journey when their uncle spotted them and sent them straight back home. As she grew older, Teresa began to love beautiful clothes, jewelry and frivolous novels. She knew many nuns at school, but she did not want to become one, to leave her family and give up nice things. But soon Teresa realized that becoming a nun was exactly what she should do. She told herself: "It can't be worse than Purgatory; it'll end someday, and surely I'll go straight to Heaven for having made such a sacrifice." The decision was very hard, but she made it, and soon she was surprised to find herself happier as a nun than she had ever been in her whole life! Teresa had many adventures as a nun, though some of her adventures were spiritual ones. As the years went by, the whole country heard of Teresa, as she opened up monastery after monastery of nuns and friars in Spain to serve God by prayer and sacrifice. Teresa told them not to serve God with long faces; she said, "God deliver me from gloomy saints!" She reminded the nuns that someday God would repay them well for all their little sufferings. After Teresa had lived a long life, God took her to Heaven to receive her own marvelous reward. From there she continues to help people serve God with cheerfulness and joy. These coloring books have the story on the top page and the coloring page on the bottom page for easy, margin free coloring!

Beware That Girl
Author: Teresa Toten
Publisher: Delacorte Press
ISBN: 0553507923
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
For fans of We Were Liars, A Good Girl's Guide to Murder, Two Can Keep a Secret, and If He Had Been With Me comes a powerful psychological thriller with a gripping pace and Hitchcockian twists. Set against the backdrop of New York City, this compelling novel delves into the dysfunctional yet mesmerizing world of the mega-wealthy elite and will keep readers guessing until the very last page. The Haves. The Have-Nots. Kate O’Brien appears to be a Have-Not. Her whole life has been a series of setbacks she’s had to snake her way out of—some more sinister than others. But she’s determined to change all that. She’s book-smart. She’s street-smart. And she’s also a masterful liar. As the scholarship student at the elite Waverly School in NYC, Kate has her work cut out for her: her plan is to climb the social ranks and land a spot at Yale. She’s already found her “people” among the senior-class “it” girls—specifically in the cosseted, mega-wealthy yet deeply damaged Olivia Sumner. As for Olivia, she considers Kate the best friend she’s always needed, the sister she never had. When the handsome and whip-smart Mark Redkin joins the Waverly administration as head of fund-raising, he immediately charms his way into the faculty’s and students’ lives, becoming especially close to Olivia, a fact she’s intent on keeping to herself. It becomes increasingly obvious that Redkin poses a threat to Kate, too, in a way she can’t reveal—and can’t afford to ignore. Mark has his own plan for a bright future and never doubts that he can pull it off. How close can Kate and Olivia get to him without having to share their dark pasts? “Combines a Gossip Girl milieu with the unsettled psychological terrain of Gone Girl.” —PW “It’s smart, dark, entertaining, and unpredictable.” —Quill & Quire, Starred

Writing Teresa
Author: Denise DuPont
Publisher: Bucknell University Press
ISBN: 1611484073
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 307
Book Description
Writing Teresa: The Saint from Ávila at the fin-de-siglo examines the Teresa de Jesús “boom” of roughly 1880–1930, and offers an in-depth study of five major Spanish participants in the turn-of-the-twentieth-century explosion of literary treatments of St. Teresa. This historical period’s interest in the Saint from Ávila relates to popularization and nationalization of aspects of Catholicism, technological advances, a modernist fascination with saintly heroes, the search for new Spanish identities, and the evolving role of women writers and intellectuals. Teresa was mysticism in its historical context, energy in a time of doubt, the possibility of reconciling science and spirituality, a new vision for writing, and a maternal figure linked to the religion of the past for those who had lost the faith of their childhood.

The Progress Principle
Author: Teresa Amabile
Publisher: Harvard Business Press
ISBN: 1422142736
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
What really sets the best managers above the rest? It’s their power to build a cadre of employees who have great inner work lives—consistently positive emotions; strong motivation; and favorable perceptions of the organization, their work, and their colleagues. The worst managers undermine inner work life, often unwittingly. As Teresa Amabile and Steven Kramer explain in The Progress Principle, seemingly mundane workday events can make or break employees’ inner work lives. But it’s forward momentum in meaningful work—progress—that creates the best inner work lives. Through rigorous analysis of nearly 12,000 diary entries provided by 238 employees in 7 companies, the authors explain how managers can foster progress and enhance inner work life every day. The book shows how to remove obstacles to progress, including meaningless tasks and toxic relationships. It also explains how to activate two forces that enable progress: (1) catalysts—events that directly facilitate project work, such as clear goals and autonomy—and (2) nourishers—interpersonal events that uplift workers, including encouragement and demonstrations of respect and collegiality. Brimming with honest examples from the companies studied, The Progress Principle equips aspiring and seasoned leaders alike with the insights they need to maximize their people’s performance.

Perhaps the reports of Mark Twain’s death have been greatly exaggerated. His literary wit and style live in Howard Doughty’s Midwestern Journal. “Edward Ellis’ fictional diary explores the human condition with humor, irony and intelligence... Thoroughly enjoyable and deceptively easy reading.” Kirkus Reviews “At its best, Midwestern Journal captures the rhythms of rural life... It’s the sort of book that, by getting us laughing at others, allows us to laugh at ourselves.” Clarion Review “Readers will find sympathy, understanding and flashes of humor in this intelligently crafted novel.” Blueink Review
