Alice Munro, recipient of the 2013 Nobel Prize in Literature, is undoubtedly among Canada’s greatest living writers. In this unique, intriguing collection, Brenda Pfaus gives fresh insights into some of Munro’s most enduring works: Lives of Girls and Women (1971), Who Do You Think You Are? (1978), Dance of the Happy Shades (1968), Something I’ve Been Meaning to Tell You (1974), and The Moons of Jupiter (1982). This collection of essays reaches from the early years of Munro’s career through her prime as a writer, when she penned her most influential works.
In this humorous reverse Mary Poppin's story, Alice Smith is in a bind or she never would have answered such a peculiar ad for a nanny. As the only candidate for the job, she ends up taking care of the O's--four children whose outlook on life is considerably different from her own. As the five of them work together to thwart Aunt Ethel's plans and figure out who threw a brick with a threatening note tied to it through the window, Alice and the children learn some valuable lessons.
Blurb: After a life of self-doubt and plus size body image issues, Alice finds herself in a Cheetah Shifter village surrounded by some seriously smoking hot guys, and Mischa, the bane of her existence.Between the punishing onslaught of Mischa's fat shaming and the constant attention from all the tall blonde supermodel men, her confusion and self-doubt is at an all time low.Will Alice come to terms with the fact that she is beautiful just the way she is? Can she accept the love that's offered, or will she let Mischa destroy the last tendrils of self-confidence she has left, sending her back to Earth for good?Author's note: This book continues on from the epilogue of Havana's Hell but unlike Havana, Alice has more Kindreds to claim. *wink winkThis is an RH Epic Fantasy/PNR novel, with adult content, and is recommended for audiences over 18. Please note that there is violence, explicit adult scenes, body image shaming, male victimisation of personal assault, and female on female bullying but a HFN is promised in the novel, I swear. I take good care of my girls and Alice will be more than satisfied when the Cheetah's get their hands on her.

Chef Alice Waters has always been friends with food.The search for good food led Alice Waters to France, and then back to Berkeley, California, where she started Chez Panisse restaurant and the Edible Schoolyard. For Alice, a delicious meal does not start in the kitchen, but in the fields with good soil and caring farmers. Jacqueline Briggs Martin, author of the Caldecott winner, Snowflake Bentley, teams up with Hayelin Choi, making her illustration debut, to show how one child's search for delicious led to a dream for all children to share the joy of tasty food--the same joy we get from a beautiful song, or a starry sky. Alice Waters and the Trip to Delicious is the second of the author's Food Heroes series on people who changed what and how we eat, after the award-winning Farmer Will Allen and the Growing Table. Alice Waters founded Chez Panisse restaurant in 1971 and the Edible Schoolyard in 1995. She won the James Beard Award for Best Chef in 1992 and Chez Panisse was named the Best Restaurant in America by Gourmet in 2001. Time magazine named her among "100 Most Influential People in the World" in 2014.

It's 1958 and 17-year-old Alice Chorley's career aspirations are in tatters. She takes a mindless office job where she is drawn into - and colludes with - the mad fantasy world of senior secretary Pearl Taylor. Their 'Game' is played out in counterpoint to Alice's more normal (though unsatisfactory) relationship with her boyfriend, Jack. The fantasies escalate and the tension mounts, leading to an explosive confrontation, a startling revelation and, ultimately, a different life for Alice. "The Game was accomplished with absolutely no physical touching on our part, ever. It would not have made good television - it was ideal for the radio though."
