""When it comes to justice, there is no easy way to get it. You
can't sugarcoat it. You have to take a stand and say, 'This is not
right.'"--Claudette Colvin"
On March 2, 1955, an impassioned teenager, fed up with the daily
injustices of Jim Crow segregation, refused to give her seat to a
white woman on a segregated bus in Montgomery, Alabama. Instead of
being celebrated as Rosa Parks would be just nine months later,
fifteen-year-old Claudette Colvin found herself shunned by her
classmates and dismissed by community leaders. Undaunted, a year
later she dared to challenge segregation again as a key plaintiff
in Browder v. Gayle, the landmark case that struck down the
segregation laws of Montgomery and swept away the legal
underpinnings of the Jim Crow South. Based on extensive interviews
with Claudette Colvin and many others, Phillip Hoose presents the
first in-depth account of an important yet largely unknown civil
rights figure, skillfully weaving her dramatic story into the
fabric of the historic Montgomery bus boycott and court case that
would change the course of American history.

full of easy-to-follow activities to calm busy minds and bodies and
develop young children's self-esteem through engagement with their
senses, nature and the world around them. With the ever-increasing
pressures on children and teachers in schools for results and
academic success, the desire for time and space for young children
in the Early Years to calm their minds and bodies and tune into the
natural environment is growing. Rebecca Gordine presents 50 ideas
to address this and nurture young children's concept of self and
wellbeing, from playing with warm noodles and making a healthy soup
recipe, to tuning into nature by listening to bird songs, and

People spend their days differently, but they also spend time doing
similar things like sleeping, eating, and commuting. The amount of
time people spend at different tasks also varies from person to
person. This full-color nonfiction book analyzes the many things
that students do throughout the day while introducing them to new
vocabulary terms and concepts. Important text features include a
glossary, index, and table of contents to engage students in
reading as they develop their comprehension, vocabulary, and
literacy skills. The Reader's Guide and culminating activity
require students to connect back to the text as they develop their
higher-order thinking skills. Check It Out! provides resources for
additional reading and learning. With TIME For Kids content, this
book aligns with national and state standards and will keep grade 3
students reading from cover to cover.
Cooking for kids can be tricky but this book, packed with recipes
that have been tried and tested by thousands of kids, is here to
help. Feeding kids is a maze - one day they'll eat a whole cucumber
from one end to the other; for the next three weeks, they will
swear it's a slimy snozzcumber. Whether time or cash strapped, it's
all too tempting to turn to fish fingers, bangers and mash and
other kids' classics, whilst wishing it was easier to do it better
on all fronts: more exciting, more inspiring, more wholesome. If
only there was someone out there who knew how to feed kids really
well on a budget, who could inspire them to try different food, and
make it easy on the cook and easy on the pocket! Well, there is.
And Chefs in Schools would like to help. Chefs in Schools is a
charity that operates in over 80 schools and feeds up to 30,000

Freer. This cookbook stands apart from other 'cooking for kids'

children. They're nutritious and proven to work. This cookbook
tells the stories and shares the recipes of the people who are
helping to transform school food. Their mission is to teach
children to love and understand real food cooked from fresh
ingredients, and to inspire them not just to eat it, but to choose
it, and to learn to cook it for themselves too. Chapters include:

Feasting, Sides & Sharing, Bread, Desserts. "Bye bye boring
school dinners - this is the future of food for our kids" - Tom

family focussed recipes. A total must have." - Thomasina Miers
"Presenting a cartographic journey into the world of the
production(s) of disability, this book examines embodiment,
transhumanism, subjectivity, technology and jurisprudence. It
concerns matters of order/disorder and the normal and pathological,
and explores the way stories about wholeness, health, enhancement
and perfection are told"--Provided by publisher.
