Book Synopsis Millie Fierce by : Jane Manning
Download or read book Millie Fierce written by Jane Manning. This book was released on 2012-08-16. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If Fancy Nancy got angry. Really, really angry. Millie is quiet. Millie is sweet. Millie is mild. But the kids at school don't listen to her. And she never gets a piece of birthday cake with a flower on it. And some girls from her class walk right on top of her chalk drawing and smudge it. And they don't even say they're sorry! So that's when Millie decides she wants to be fierce! She frizzes out her hair, sharpens her nails and runs around like a wild thing. But she soon realizes that being fierce isn't the best way to get noticed either, especially when it makes you turn mean. So Millie decides to be nice--but to keep a little of that fierce backbone hidden inside her. In case she ever needs it again. With bright art and an adorable character, it's easy to empathize with Millie. Because everyone has a bad day, once in a while. Praise for MILLIE FIERCE “Millie Fierce is a delightfully naughty mix between Maurice Sendak’s Where the Wild Things Are and Molly Bang’s When Sophie Gets Angry.”--School Library Journal

Book Synopsis A Fierce Joy by : Juliana Skye
Download or read book A Fierce Joy written by Juliana Skye. This book was released on 2010-07-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "My name is Solaine. I have been human, vampire, Redeemer and am The Reclaimer. I never wanted it, it simply is. I'm afraid I can't start at 'the beginning' because there have been too many beginnings. So I'll start from where my life gets interesting, and if I jink around please forgive me. Life is so rarely remembered as a linear progression of events-and given that I'm working with a number of lifetimes-it's very difficult for me to keep track of it all. I'm confusing you already. Sorry for that. Let me just start by saying..." Thus starts a story about loves-and lives-lost and found in a world vastly different from our own; and even though Solaine doesn't know it yet, through her strength humanity will rise up once again.

Book Synopsis The Future Tense of Joy by : Jessica Teich
Download or read book The Future Tense of Joy written by Jessica Teich. This book was released on 2016-10-18. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Jessica Teich's understanding of trauma is the infallible authority upon which her tale rests. But the delicacy and nuance with which she renders this story is that of a poet." -- Meryl Streep Jessica Teich was among the first wave of women to expose Hollywood's culture of harassment and abuse. Her memoir, The Future Tense of Joy, tells the inspiring story of her own recovery from trauma, empowering other victims to move past silence and shame toward help, healing, and hope. Teich writes openly, courageously, of the challenges facing so many survivors: to feel safe, to find love, to nurture optimism and resilience, and to reclaim the sense of connection -- of belonging -- that defines us as human beings. Kirkus called The Future Tense of Joy "an honest, compassionate memoir about shaking off personal demons." Library Journal said, "Teich looks at motherhood, depression, the effect of damaging relationships, and the challenges placed on successful, driven women. She does so with grace and openness, even while exploring painful parts of her past." (starred review) The Future Tense of Joy belongs with classics of the genre-from Eat, Pray, Love and The Glass Castle to Wild-that celebrate the triumph of truth-telling and the redeeming power of love. Lyrical, funny and brave, Teich's book speaks to anyone eager to emerge from the long shadow of betrayal to find love, liberation, and joy.
