What does a cat want in a best friend? Someone who knows just where to scratch. Someone who can read the many moods of a cat's tail. Someone who knows when to play and when to stay away. In fact, this cat might just have someone special in mind... With characteristic humor and a light touch, Wendy Wahman shows readers what cats like and what they don't. "A Cat Like That" is perfect for every kid who meets a feline friend―from the overeager ones to the scaredy-cats "Striking illustrations and a pitch-perfect portrait of an unnamed pet's personality combine to showcase charming (and practical) advice on how to make friends with a feline..." - Kirkus Reviews"With humor and a light touch, this book shows young readers what cats like and what they don't, helping kids understand good, pet-friendly behavior." - Cat Fancy "Reading Wendy Wahman's colorful picture book A Cat Like That awakened all my hitherto more or less hidden desires to acquire a kitten." - Nancy Pearl

Autobiography of a Sea Creature

Autobiography of a Sea Creature

Wendy Williams

Operated on as an infant, without anesthesia, Wendy P. Williams began life at war with her body. "There were tubes everywhere, in and out of every opening," her mother reminded her on every anniversary of her surgery. Autobiography of a Sea Creature takes readers on Williams' difficult sensory journey toward healing, as she communes along the way with horseshoe crabs, dolphins, and other marine life that taught her the restorative power of beauty, resilience, and interdependence. At times luscious and lyrical, at other times analytical and reflective, this literary memoir portrays the dissociative experience of trauma and the roots of self-destructive cycles, as well as the tragic results of medical beliefs at the time that infants could not feel pain. Autobiography of a Sea Creature is both a love letter to the earth and a hopeful testament of humans' capacity to heal our deepest wounds.

Children of a Faraway War tells the story of Wendy and Robbie, two Australian-born sisters, now in their seventies, and their life-changing quest to learn the truth about their father who died in England in World War II while serving in Bomber Command. Because of their mother's reticence and their reluctance to probe her grief, they grow up knowing very little about the man who could have been a father to them. Separated by half a world, Robbie in Australia, Wendy in Canada, they plan a trip to England as a kind of homage to this missing dad.This journey of discovery, undertaken so late in their lives and guided by the one artefact they have, his wartime diary, leads them the length and breadth of the UK. Their travels, ranging from the hilarious to the serendipitous to the deeply moving, allow them to recreate their father's story and the horror that was Bomber Command. Undertaken almost casually at first, their quest grows into a search for identity and an affirmation of the profound power of family, love, and memory.

Greymouth, New Zealand, 1866: The Burgess gang is heading towards town, and a young surveyor from one of the country's leading families has vanished. Inspector James is preparing for trouble.In the gold-mining town of Greymouth, where drunks fall asleep with pipes clenched between teeth and burn down their houses, where the town is constantly inundated with floods, and where fifty-seven hotels have sprung up in a year to accommodate the hordes of miners and gold thieves, Inspector William Henry James is tasked with keeping the town safe with a small force of troopers.In 1888, forced into retirement by government cuts, James walks home beside the Whanganui River remembering his association with a series of murders by the notorious Burgess gang: back in 1866 he had forced the gang to leave Greymouth. The gang took a steamer up to Nelson and within days killed five men on the Maungatapu Track. Soon after, Inspector James discovered the body of a young surveyor, George Dobson, murdered by Burgess and his crew. The gang was gone, but one guilty man remained, and James was determined to bring him to trial. The events that transpired haunted him for the rest of his life."Wendy Wilson writes beautifully and subtly about bad men who did bad things, as well as those who struggled to bring them to justice. In A Cold Wind Down the Grey, the past, in all its complicated allure and nasty intrigue, seems to appear on the page fully-formed, so that we can live inside it for a while -- for good or for naught." Shaughnessy Bishop-Stall, author, Hungover: One Man's Quest for the CureWendy Wilson's passion for her subject shines through in this well-researched, immensely readable novel.

And then, he simply moves into Anne's life, a world in which she is already struggling, feeling despair.Archie explains that he and Anne are twin flames, two halves of the same soul, and that with his death, their soul contract that spanned hundreds of lifetimes is complete, with one exception. They had promised to write their love story.What love story? They had dated a mere three months.This is the story of Anne and Archie as they come together, recall their deep love for each other, and forge a ground-breaking relationship that bridges the veil and is in two worlds, one that allows them to recall, reflect, and write their love story, the one in the past, and the one that continues.Sounds easy?

They serve two purposes: to ground this love and relationship in Anne's life, her world, her journey through grief to self-love; and to offer a first-hand glimpse of the love, the humour, the magic, as Anne and Archie venture forth into unchartered territory and discover for themselves how truly profound their connection is, in both worlds.For those who have loved and lost, A Love to Behold opens the door to unexplored possibilities of love and connection that transcend the bounds of space and time. That transcend death. That it is possible to keep loving at all levels, and have that love transformed and transformative.

A Sense of Inequality

A Sense of Inequality

sidottu
We have a detailed picture of how inequality impacts people’s lives, but a much weaker sense of how people perceive, interpret and understand issues of inequality. What shapes people’s everyday understandings of inequality? How are understandings of inequality located in everyday concerns, moral values and principles of justice? This book considers what provokes everyday ‘views’ or framings of inequality. It examines how different approaches can help us understand this process, drawing on a range of literatures, including social attitudes and perceptions research, class identities and neoliberalism, theories of the psychosocial, affect and the abject, social constructionism, social movements research, and pragmatism. The book examines how troubling social situations come to be regarded as inequalities, explores how they come to be understood as ‘class’, ‘gender’, ‘racial’ or other kinds of inequality, and considers how such inequalities come to be seen as susceptible to intervention and change.
