The second edition of "After the Storm" contains added content and a new cover. This historical novel shares the unforgettable story of a 19th-century quilter through some of the most challenging times in American history. This story is told "in her own words" through a lifetime of diary entries and a memoir she dictated to a grandchild shortly before her death.Hannah Applegate Benson Stone weathered many personal storms in her life yet found strength in her family, friends, and her own resilience. Orphaned at four years old during the Civil War and raised by a caring aunt in a small New England farming community, she grew from a frightened child to a confident woman and successful quilt pattern designer. At a time when women had few opportunities available to them, she witnessed and participated in sweeping changes as her small world expanded.This fictional memoir is based on many of the author's own life experiences and those of her family transposed to another time. These "memories" bring Hannah's story to life. Readers will experience for themselves what it was like to grow up without any of the modern conveniences we take for granted and the excitement of discovering one's own abilities and strengths. They will mourn and rejoice with Hannah as she loses her first love but finds new love a second time in this enduring story of loss and renewal.

Mindless

Mindless

Cary Nelson

Jewish Quarterly
2025
pokkari
Extremism, antisemitism and intolerance are thriving on campus. How did this happen?"Some programmes are well on their way to running Zionists out of their unit. That will put an end to complaints of antisemitism." --Cary NelsonAfter October 7, the university - an institution dedicated to the search for truth, knowledge and freedom - became overrun by a toxic and dangerous fervour. Civil discourse was abandoned as campuses became the epicentre of hate speech, conspiracy theories and antisemitism. Yet, as Cary Nelson reveals, this betrayal of the university's ideals was decades in the making.In this groundbreaking essay, Nelson, an academic and writer whose years of involvement in university organisations has made him a leading expert on higher education, explains the causes of the institutional failure that has been evident on campuses worldwide. Mindless shows how universities came to abandon a commitment to shared intellectual principles and fractured into disciplines that - unconstrained and unchecked - slid towards conformity and indoctrination.

Little Blue Chair

Little Blue Chair

Cary Fagan

Tundra Books
2017
sidottu
A sweet, whimsical tale that chronicles the journey of a chair as it changes hands and uses. Perfect for fans of The Good Little Book, Something for Nothing and Virginia Lee Burton's The Little House. Boo's favorite chair is little and blue. He sits in it, reads in it and makes a tent around it...until the day he grows too big for it. His mother puts the little blue chair out on the lawn where a truck driver picks it up. The truck driver sells it to a lady in a junk store where it sits for many years until it's sold and put to use as a plant stand. In the years that follow, the little blue chair is used in many other ways -- on an elephant ride, in a contest, on a Ferris wheel, in a tree...until the day it flies away, borne aloft by balloons, and lands in a garden of daffodils where a familiar face finds it. A charming, beautifully illustrated read-aloud that follows the adventures of a little chair, beginning as the seat of a small child who loves books and circling back to that child's child many years (and bottoms) later.

What Are You Doing, Benny?

Cary Fagan

Tundra Books
2019
sidottu
From New York Times-bestselling illustrator Kady MacDonald Denton and award-winning author Cary Fagan comes a charming sibling story that has the makings of a contemporary classic. Benny's little brother is really good at a lot of things -- making potions and paper airplanes, building forts, putting on puppet shows, even petting the neighbor's cat (he has a special way of scratching her just behind the ears). But whenever he tries to join in Benny's activities, all Benny ever says is "No." Maybe his little brother can watch him do cool stuff, if he's lucky. What is a little fox to do, except give Benny a taste of his own medicine? Totally familiar yet fresh and original, tenderly told and consistently funny, this story perfectly captures the joys (and annoyances ) of sibling relationships.
