Writers in every field play with words each time they sit down at
their desks. In his newest book, Ralph Fletcher demonstrates how
playful craft can energize student writing and breathe new energy
into the writing workshop. Children have a natural affinity for
language play; Pyrotechnics on the Page demonstrates how writing
teachers can tap into it. This book provides a wealth of resources
for teachers: Information on the roots and developmental importance
of language play; A how-to on using the writer's notebook as a
playground for students to explore and experiment with verbal
pyrotechnics; An in-depth look at the kind of language play
commonly used by writers, including chapters on Puns and Double
Meanings, Idioms and Expressions, Inventing Words, and Harnessing
the Supple Power of Sentences (these chapters end with a Bringing
It to the Writing Workshop" section that includes explicit
classroom connections) Twenty-four brand new craft lessons to bring
pyrotechnics into the classroom An extensive bibliography of
relevant mentor texts that make it easy to model language play for
students. Pyrotechnics on the Page is vintage Fletcher: personal,
anecdotal, and practical. It represents the latest chapter in
Ralph's efforts to widen the circle in the writing classroom, make
it a more engaging place for student writers and, in the process,
lift the quality of their writing.

Florence Butterfield has lived an extraordinary life full of
travel, passion and adventure. But, at eighty-seven, she suspects
there are no more surprises to come her way. Then, one midsummer's
night, something terrible happens - so strange and unexpected that
Florrie is suspicious. Was this really an accident, or is she
living alongside a would-be murderer? The only clue is a magenta
envelope, discarded earlier that day. And Florrie - cheerfully
independent but often overlooked - is the only person determined to
uncover the truth. As she turns detective, Florrie finds herself
looking back on her own life . . . and a long-buried secret, traced
in faded scars across her knuckles, becomes ever harder to ignore.

Double bill of film fantasies. 'Stardust' (2007) is an adventure
based on the bestselling graphic novel by Neil Gaiman and Charles
Vess. When a young man, Tristan (Charlie Cox), tries to win the
heart of his beautiful but cold object of his desire Victoria
(Sienna Miller) by going on a quest to retrieve a fallen star, his
journey takes him to a mysterious and forbidden land beyond the
walls of his village. On his odyssey, Tristan finds the star, which
has transformed into a striking girl called Yvaine (Claire Danes).
However, Tristan is not the only one seeking the star. A king
(Peter O'Toole)'s four sons - not to mention the ghosts of their
three dead brothers - all need the star as they vie for the throne.
Tristan must also overcome the evil witch, Lamia (Michelle
Pfeiffer), who needs the star to make her young again. As Tristan
battles to survive these threats, encountering a pirate named
Captain Shakespeare (Robert De Niro) and a shady trader named Ferdy
the Fence (Ricky Gervais) along the way, his quest changes. He must
now win the heart of the star for himself as he discovers the
meaning of true love. Neil Jordan directs the Irish drama 'Ondine'
(2009). Syracuse (Colin Farrell) is a poor fisherman whose life is
changed forever when he fishes a beautiful live woman (Alicja
Bachleda) out of the sea. His young daughter, Annie (Alison Barry),
is convinced that the mysterious beauty must be a mermaid. Theories
abound about the girl's origins as she transforms the lives of
Syracuse, Annie and the local townsfolk. Stephen Rea and Dervla
Kirwan co-star.
