Each story in this collection begins with an undesirable or out-of-balance situation and, through the use of metaphor and an imaginative story, leads to a more desirable resolution. In this way, the stories also have the potential for nurturing positive values. The stories cover many kinds of common behaviors. Following the alphabet from A to Z, the behavior is identified within the story titles--anxious, bossy, cranky, greedy, jealous, lazy, swearing, lack of cooperation, and more. These stories can be told as-is or adapted to the situation. They can also be made into homemade picture books or puppet shows or used as inspiration to create new tales for particular behavior challenges and situations.

Georgiana Keable introduces us to a staggering wealth of world stories all about nature and our role as humans in it. These are traditional stories that have stood the test of time. They often speak of something universal or enduring about our experience and relationship with nature. Culturally diverse and all told with great energy and panache, the stories will engage young readers and encourage them to become natural storytellers. The book includes several storymaps to help the reader think visually about stories as well as other ways to remember the different stages that make up each tale. The author also reflects on the heart of each tale, what it's about, and whether there is a way the reader can turn their own experience into a story. Each section has a practical activity that can be undertaken individually or as a group. The author's message is clear: the resources needed for Natural Storytelling are abundantly around us - nature and our imagination.

A 2022 PROSE Award finalist in Legal Studies and Criminology A 2022 American Bar Association Silver Gavel Award Finalist A Behavioral Scientist’s Notable Book of 2021 Freakonomics for the law—how applying behavioral science to the law can fundamentally change and explain misbehavior Why do most Americans wear seatbelts but continue to speed even though speeding fines are higher? Why could park rangers reduce theft by removing “no stealing” signs? Why was a man who stole 3 golf clubs sentenced to 25 years in prison? Some laws radically change behavior whereas others are consistently ignored and routinely broken. And yet we keep relying on harsh punishment against crime despite its continued failure. Professors Benjamin van Rooij and Adam Fine draw on decades of research to uncover the behavioral code: the root causes and hidden forces that drive human behavior and our responses to society’s laws. In doing so, they present the first accessible analysis of behavioral jurisprudence, which will fundamentally alter how we understand the connection between law and human behavior. The Behavioral Code offers a necessary and different approach to battling crime and injustice that is based in understanding the science of human misconduct—rather than relying on our instinctual drive to punish as a way to shape behavior. The book reveals the behavioral code’s hidden role through illustrative examples like: • The illusion of the US’s beloved tax refund • German walls that “pee back” at public urinators • The $1,000 monthly “good behavior” reward that reduced gun violence • Uber’s backdoor “Greyball” app that helped the company evade Seattle’s taxi regulators • A $2.3 billion legal settlement against Pfizer that revealed how whistleblower protections fail to reduce corporate malfeasance • A toxic organizational culture playing a core role in Volkswagen’s emissions cheating scandal • How Peter Thiel helped Hulk Hogan sue Gawker into oblivion Revelatory and counterintuitive, The Behavioral Code catalyzes the conversation about how the law can effectively improve human conduct and respond to some of our most pressing issues today, from police misconduct to corporate malfeasance.

World War II created much havoc for many people both in Europe and in the United States. From Concentration Camp Dachau to Cuba and the United States, Memoir of a 2G tells the story of what Patricia's parents went through during these times and how these events affected her upbringing. A 2G is a designated moniker given to a person whose parents were in the Holocaust. While growing up, very little if any information and experiences were talked about by her parents about what they had endured. Most everything was a blur for her. Questions were not answered, silence was the norm. Through Patricia's attempt to find out appropriate truths, and while working on her family genealogy, she was able to get some finality. Memoir of a 2G illustrates examples of what a child and as a young adult endured growing up in that type of family environment. In Memoir of a 2G, you will find this is a story that follows Patricia through the many experiences she endured. Patricia has come full circle in her understanding of how in spite of prejudice, survival, secrecy and perfectionism, she was able to create a rich life. Her challenging life events brought about both sorrow and joy. This story will give examples of how she was vulnerable and in some instances how she did not have the nerve to speak up in fear of the obvious and not so obvious consequences and reprisals.
