1000 tulosta hakusanalla Henry Wikoff
From laughingstock to leader, Henry Bingle transforms the town of Hogville from pigsty to park. After an earthquake shakes Hogville, Henry Bingle, a socially awkward thirteen-year-old, wakes up with his hoarded collections collapsed on top of him. He pulls on the only clothes he can find in the rubble, and the outfit is so wacky that Henry decides to cut school. When he arrives at his favorite spot at the creek, his life takes an unexpected and magical turn; he meets a Quercus Nixie, a rare, endangered creature. The Nixie, Hamphaleon, begs for Henry's help. Someone has defiled the environment by dumping a load of noxious junk over the banks of Hogville Creek. The load of trash landed on Hamphaleon's family home, a cozy burrow under the oak roots, trapping his wife and daughter inside. Henry and Ham work feverishly to uncover the entrance to the cave. Finally, Ham's wife and daughter are freed from being buried alive. Henry and Hamphaleon form a devoted friendship. When Henry tells Ham that he is wondering about what to do for his 8th Grade Final Project, Ham gives Henry an idea; why not dedicate his project to cleaning up the disgusting, polluted Hogville Creek? An inspired Henry gets the whole town involved in his fundraising brainstorm: The Snoot and Snout Extravaganza for Hogs and Dogs. The festival, with its multiple attractions, is wildly successful, and the money raised is enough to rent the equipment needed for a truly transformative creek cleanup. Henry and the residents of Hogville are inspired to turn the town from pigsty to an artsy, charming destination for townsfolk and tourists. Best of all, Henry has transformed from an unpopular slob to a respected individual with a park named after him and a budding romance with his 8th grade crush. Henry Bingle's Transformation has the power to influence readers and listeners. Though it is a lighthearted romp with magical elements, the story has underlying themes of a deeper nature. Readers will gain appreciation for the value of a clean and beautiful environment. The crusading main character, Henry, demonstrates the positive impact an individual and a community can have on their surroundings. It is, in short, inspiring.

Henry Hulton and the American Revolution
Colonial Society of Massachusetts
2010
sidottu
Henry Hulton was an Englishman who moved to Boston in 1767 as a member of the new American Board of Customs Commissioners. The board was supposed to curtail smuggling and bring greater efficiency to the administration of empire. It failed, and Hulton fled Massachusetts in 1776, joining an exodus of the politically displaced. Hulton eventually wrote a never-published history of the American rebellion as he experienced it. Although his complaints about the 'demagogues' who dominated Massachusetts politics echo those made by other Loyalists. Hulton adds another dimension to our understanding. As an Englishman, he could be more detached from the problems of empire than Loyalists who had been driven from their native land. For those interested in the complexities of historical causation, this interpretation provides a telling case study of how an author can combine individual action with deeper forces to explain events. Though not a historical determinist, Hulton did see rebellion as the logical result of American attitudes and behaviors that London allowed to go unchecked for too long. Hulton's history, his letters, and the letters of his sister, Ann, who lived with him outside Boston - all of which are reproduced here - provide an unusual glimpse into the onset of the Revolution in Massachusetts. Hulton was himself an intriguing figure, an Englishman seeking to secure fame and fortune abroad, first in Germany, then on the island of Antigua, then again in Germany, with a stop in London before ambition took him back across the Atlantic, this time to Massachusetts. He would end his days a retired gentleman living in the English countryside, frustrated by his experiences on both sides of the Atlantic but determined to teach his five sons the lessons about life that he learned and recorded in this history.
