When Shadow Moon is released from prison, he meets the mysterious Mr. Wednesday and a storm begins to brew. Little does Shadow know, this storm will change the course of his entire life.
Left adrift by the recent, tragic death of his wife, and suddenly hired as Mr. Wednesday’s bodyguard, Shadow finds himself in the centre of a world that he struggles to understand. It’s a hidden world where magic is real, where the Old Gods fear both irrelevance and the growing power of the New Gods, like Technology and Media. Mr. Wednesday seeks to build a coalition of Old Gods to defend their existence in this new America, and reclaim some of the influence that they’ve lost.
As Shadow travels across the country with Mr. Wednesday, he struggles to accept this new reality, and his place in it.

Case studies provide real-world examples that make for rich
discussions and greater learning in educational and professional
development settings. Engage with case studies on developmentally
appropriate practice to enhance your knowledge and skills.
Developmentally appropriate practice (DAP) requires a nuanced
understanding of child development, individual children, and the
social and cultural contexts of children, families, and educators.
This casebook presents nearly 50 cases addressing infancy through
third grade and across multiple, diverse settings. Written and
edited by teacher educators, researchers, classroom teachers, and
other early childhood professionals, these cases offer unique
opportunities for critical thinking and discussion on practice that
supports all children and families. The cases are organized into
eight parts that reflect the six guidelines of DAP plus the topics
of supporting children with disabilities and supporting dual
language learners. Brief overviews of each guideline and the
additional topics set the stage for study of the cases. Each case
provides an opportunity to Make connections to the fourth edition
of Developmentally Appropriate Practice in Early Childhood Programs
Think critically about the influence of context on educator, child,
and family actions Discuss the effectiveness of the teaching
practices and how they might be improved Support your responses
with evidence from the DAP position statement and book Explore next
steps beyond the case details Apply the learning to your own
situation Use this book as a companion to the fourth edition of
Developmentally Appropriate Practice in Early Childhood Programs in
higher education coursework, as professional development in
programs, or for stand-alone study.
