Brit Speak for Yanks! Back in 1887, Oscar Wilde wrote, "We have
really everything in common with America nowadays, except, of
course, language." One would think, in a world homogenized by
technology and social media, that differences between British
English and American English would gradually disappear. Ask any
recent traveler, though, and you'll learn that plenty of linguistic
idiosyncrasies persist, and new ones emerge all the time. Folks on
both sides of the pond may be in closer touch than ever before, but
we are still, as George Bernard Shaw purportedly noted, "two
nations divided by a common language." Blimey, I'm Knackered! is
the perfect companion for anyone desiring to bridge the gap between
US and UK English or who simply enjoys the evolution of language
and culture. American scholar and longtime UK resident Marshall
Hall has organized his insightful definitions and explanations of
British idioms, colloquialisms, abbreviations, acronyms, and slang
into nineteen entertaining and revealing chapters covering
everything from transportation and food to politics, education, and
wardrobe. Making the book truly comprehensive are sections on
pejoratives and "naughty bits." Hall's often amusing explanations
make the book an engaging read for language lovers and travelers
alike. Charming pen-and-ink illustrations by Mark Cowie add whimsy
and humor to this entertaining, useful, and unique compendium. No
American need ever be befuddled again!

Designed for instructors and students who have already used Grammar
for the Well-Trained Mind (Purple, Red, or Blue workbooks) in
previous years, and who thus already have the Core Instructor Text,
Grammar Guidebook, and Diagramming Dictionary, this bundle includes
only what you'll need to continue grammar instruction for another
year: the Yellow Workbook and Key. The Grammar for the Well-Trained
Mind series provides all the grammar skills needed to write and
speak with eloquence and confidence. Start with any of the four
Workbooks and Keys: Blue, Purple, Red, or Yellow. Each Workbook
reviews the same grammar concepts with the same examples, but with
brand-new exercises that allow students to practice and apply the
grammar principles under study. Examples are based on great works
of literature, as well as classic and contemporary works of science
and history. Step-by-step instruction takes students from the most
basic concepts through advanced grammatical concepts. Extensive
diagramming exercises reinforce the rules and help technical and
visual learners to understand and use the English language
effectively. Each step of the diagramming process is illustrated
and thoroughly explained to the student. Text for examples and
exercises is drawn from actual published works, from English
literature classics to modern masters. Learn your grammar from the
greats! Regular review is built into each year of work. The Yellow
Key provides answers, as well as detailed explanations, for every
student exercise. Use alongside the Core Instructor Text for a full
year (and beyond!) of grammar study.

"I Am Malala. This is my story. "
Malala Yousafzai was only ten years old when the Taliban took
control of her region. They said music was a crime. They said women
weren't allowed to go to the market. They said girls couldn't go to
school.
Raised in a once-peaceful area of Pakistan transformed by
terrorism, Malala was taught to stand up for what she believes. So
she fought for her right to be educated. And on October 9, 2012,
she nearly lost her life for the cause: She was shot point-blank
while riding the bus on her way home from school.
No one expected her to survive.
Now Malala is an international symbol of peaceful protest and the
youngest ever Nobel Peace Prize nominee. In this Young Readers
Edition of her bestselling memoir, which includes exclusive photos
and material, we hear firsthand the remarkable story of a girl who
knew from a young age that she wanted to change the world -- and
did.
Malala's powerful story will open your eyes to another world and
will make you believe in hope, truth, miracles and the possibility
that one person -- one young person -- can inspire change in her
community and beyond.
