2018 Storytelling World Resource Award Winner - Stories for Young Listeners 2018 Rainbow Book List Bunnybear is more than a bear. Although Bunnybear was born a bear, he feels more like a bunny. He prefers bouncing in the thicket to tramping in the forest, and in his heart he's fluffy and tiny, like a rabbit, instead of burly and loud, like a bear. The other bears don't understand him, and neither do the bunnies. Will Bunnybear ever find a friend who likes him just the way he is?

Soundies Jukebox Films and the Shift to Small-Screen Culture is the first and only book to position what are called “Soundies” within the broader cultural and technological milieu of the 1940s. From 1940 to 1946, these musical films circulated in everyday venues, including bars, bowling alleys, train stations, hospitals, and even military bases. Viewers would pay a dime to watch them playing on the small screens of the Panoram jukebox. This book expands U.S. film history beyond both Hollywood and institutional film practices. Examining the dynamics between Soundies’ short musical films, the Panoram’s film-jukebox technology, their screening spaces and their popular discourse, Andrea J. Kelley provides an integrative approach to historic media exhibition. She situates the material conditions of Soundies’ screening sites alongside formal considerations of the films and their unique politics of representation to illuminate a formative moment in the history of the small screen.

This practical book offers a guide to finding, choosing, and applying theoretical frameworks to social sciences research, and provides researchers with the scaffolding needed to reflect on their philosophical orientations and better situate their work in the existing landscape of empirical and theoretical knowledge.Using a multifaceted approach, the book provides clear definitions, primary tenets, historical context, highlights of the challenges and contemporary discussion and, perhaps more importantly, concrete and successful examples of studies that have drawn on and incorporated each theoretical framework. The authors define and explain the connections among such concepts as ontology, epistemology, paradigm, theory, theoretical frameworks, conceptual frameworks, and research methodology; describe the process of finding and effectively using theoretical and conceptual frameworks in research; and offer brief overviews of particular theories within the following disciplines: sociology, psychology, education, leadership, public policy, political science, economics, organizational studies, and business. The book also has a dedicated chapter on critical theories, and for each theory, provides a definition, explores how the theory is useful for researchers, discusses the background and foundations, outlines key terms and concepts, presents examples of theoretical applications, and gives an overview of strengths and limitations.This book offers a useful starting point for any researcher interested in better situating their work in existing conceptual and theoretical knowledge, but it will be especially useful for graduate students and early career researchers who are looking for clear definitions of complex terms and concepts, and for an introduction to useful theories across disciplines.

Indeed, the boy is Princess Hosanni's son and destined to become the next Kristos and the Bridegroom of Lady Veritas.

On the Sixth Day, Emi created the purple-skinned Argevane and Bion from the purple soil of their world. Emi forbid only opening a portal to the red Earth, the twin to their world located across the heavens in their understanding. Bion disobeyed and opened the portal, unleashing death and every evil. For this, Emi cursed Bion's sons to suffer in matriarchal slavery until the Seed of Eve, Lady Veritas, comes and lifts up their heads. All womankind awaits the coming of Lady Veritas to reveal Emi's Sacrifice. Emi's Chosen People, Diakrinth, also await the Coming One in hopes she will free their nation from the Romini's invasion. Young Hosanni Kristekon learns God chose her to be the mother of Lady Veritas. The same day, the invaders take her captive and put her virginity on sale at a trade school. Not only would a man worthy to father Lady Veritas not seek a wife among slaves, her religion bars her from salvation if she marries a man who isn't a submissive Emian. Her husband likewise is damned if he isn't her slave. Her dorm mother, Marezza, presents an offer that appears promising. At least it does until she sends Hosanni home with the free-spirited, unreligious enemy prince that Marezza forgot to mention she was married to on paper. Praise for Daughter of Eve, Book 3 of the Argevane Series: Daughter of Eve is a book for anyone who enjoys science fiction or alternate world scenarios. The main character, Verity, is a strong female protagonist. Author Andrea Graham masterfully builds a world and plot where Verity grows into a new woman, and at the same time intertwines the truth of the gospel with an innovative approach. Daughter of Eve provides an imaginative escape into another world, and in my opinion it's a trip worth taking.--Donna Sundblad, author of Beyond the Fifth Gate and the Inheritance For those of us that love clean romance, Daughter of Eve delivers. Andrea Graham places the reader along side the main character, Verity, as she is plunged into a new world. The story moves seamlessly between well developed characters. If you're looking for a fast paced story, Daughter of Eve should be added to your bookshelf.--Kimberli Campbell, author of The Sword of Light: Shayia's Adventures Book One Daughter of Eve is a thought-provoking tale that challenges the reader to examine her ideas about who God is and what the truth is. In this matriarchal society, male and female roles are topsy-turvy, even in language. Andrea Graham creates an alternative universe somewhere-through-the wormhole with a lady astronaut in urgent need of healing before she can fulfill her destiny. With writing that is intelligent, witty, and provocative, this story begs for careful reading and scrutiny.--Cathi Hassan, editor TeenAge Magazine

In this stand-alone finalle to the Argevane Series, Air Force Captain Veritas "Verity" Callaghan laughs at alternate universes until she crashes into one and is severely burned. Prophecy foretold her coming, and she has eighty days to become the pure, spotless, royal bride the matriarchs are expecting. Otherwise, they will feed her to the family's pet miniature T-Rex. Verity seeks to return home, and that means letting a God-fearing men's libber carry her back to where she wrecked on Mount Sacrifice. While that's embarrassing for a God-abandoned feminist, Verity has an even bigger problem: Havan's chivalry is winning her heart. She has a knack for being attracted to sociopaths--and he's hiding something. Daughter of Eve is a book for anyone who enjoys science fiction or alternate world scenarios.

Offers a timely reconsideration of the writings of Gloria Anzaldúa, treating issues of multiplicitous agency, identarian politics, and the stakes of coalition building as core themes in the author's work.In a refreshingly novel approach to the writings of Gloria E. Anzaldúa (1942–2004), Andrea J. Pitts addresses issues relevant to contemporary debates within feminist theory and critical race studies. Pitts explores how Anzaldúa addressed, directly and indirectly, a number of complicated problems regarding agency in her writings, including questions of disability justice, trans theorizing, Indigenous sovereignty, and identarian politics. Anzaldúa's conception of what Pitts describes as multiplicitous agency serves as a key conceptual link between these questions in her work, including how discussions of agency surfaced in Anzaldúa's late writings of the 1990s and early 2000s. Not shying away from Anzaldúa's own complex and sometimes problematic framings of disability, mestizaje, and Indigeneity, Pitts draws from several strands of contemporary Chicanx, Latinx, and African American philosophy to examine how Anzaldúa's work builds pathways toward networks of solidarity and communities of resistance.
