1000 tulosta hakusanalla Wanda Terry
Young Wanda is a girl on a mission; she wants to decide what to do when she grows up. Will she be a dancer? A landscape designer? Maybe a pastry chef? Her teachers and parents all make suggestions, but Wanda sets out to explore each option on her own. Along the way she invents a clever pulley system, a squirrel-proof bird feeder, and the best way to separate eggs. With the school career fair (and adulthood) looming on the horizon, what will Wanda decide? From the award-winning children’s author Laura Pedersen comes Wanda’s Better Way, an educational picture book about believing in yourself and pursuing your passion.
Wanda is a witch, but not the busy, bustling kind. She skips spells, ignores the mess, and leaves her potion bench sticky with spills. Cat and Bird are always around, hoping for names and a place to call home. But life in the cottage is quiet and slow until a knock at the door, a wrinkly old toad, and the ickiest fright send Wanda scurrying to whip up the trickiest spell. A bubbling brew of chaos, laughter, and heartwarming moments as Wanda discovers that a little effort can make all the difference.

Finalist for the Ottawa Book Award. Can one come-of-age at thirty? Small-town journalist Wanda Stewart discovers she has a degenerative eye condition and begins losing sight in one eye as she grapples with a faltering marriage and the looming death of her domineering father.

"Remarkable little story." - The Ottawa Citizen, Nov. 12, 2006 "In Regarding Wanda, Barbara Sibbald shows readers that the blinkered life is no life at all. ...

BARBARA SIBBALD is an award-winning journalist and author of two non-fiction books.

In 1998, and following 17 years in the army, Jianlin Wang formed a property company in the north-eastern Chinese city of Dalian using a loan of $80,000. Today, Dalian Wanda is China's largest private property developer, generating revenues of $40 billion globally, and owning some 9-million square metres of investment property. In 2012, Wanda became the world's largest theatre owner when it acquired AMC Theatres, with a view to becoming a global entertainment colossus. Wang himself has become Asia's richest man. This book, by its founder and Chairman, provides unprecedented insight into the ethos and activities that have created the extraordinary business success that is the Wanda empire. Wang describes his managerial philosophy and the essence of his business ideas to "make Wanda a brand like Walmart or IBM or Google - a brand known by everyone in the world", and that led The Economist to call him "a man of Napoleonic ambition". As China's influence in the world economy grows led by companies such as Wanda, this book is both timely and relevant.
