Childhood held a special place in Soviet society: seen as the key to a better future, children were imagined as the only privileged class. Therefore, the rapid emergence in post-Soviet Russia of the vast numbers of vulnerable ‘social orphans’, or children who have living relatives but grow up in residential care institutions, caught the public by surprise, leading to discussions of the role and place of childhood in the new society. Based on an in-depth study the author explores dissonance between new post-Soviet forms of family and economy, and lingering Soviet attitudes, revealing social orphans as an embodiment of a long-standing power struggle between the state and the family. The author uncovers parallels between (post-) Soviet and Western practices in child welfare and attitudes towards ‘bad’ mothers, and proposes a new way of interpreting kinship where the state is an integral member.
Sesame Street, the most trusted name in preschool education, offers a complete, user-friendly guide to help parents prepare their children, ages 2-5, for academic, physical, and social success. For the past 50 years, Sesame Street has stood at the forefront of child development, stimulating and nurturing the minds of preschoolers not only through the iconic TV show, but also through books, games, mobile apps, and community engagement initiatives. With Ready for School!, Senior VP of Curriculum and Content at Sesame Workshop Dr. Rosemarie Truglio shares all the research-based, curriculum-directed school readiness skills that have made Sesame Street the preeminent children's TV program, and that every parent needs in order to get their preschooler ready for lifelong learning. Each of the book's eight chapters focuses on a key area: language, literacy, math, science, logic & reasoning, social & emotional development, healthy habits, and the arts. An essential dynamic of Ready for School! is its emphasis on the importance of play in a child's learning process. To respond to that need, dozens of "Play & Learn" activities are included to aid parents in educating their children: at the kitchen table, on the bus, in the park, or in the preschool classroom while playing together. In addition, the book recommends scores of hints, tips, ideas for useful products, and deep-dives on more complex topics for parents, all designed to make preparing young kids for school easy and joyful.
One of the most rewarding aspects of a writer’s work is to receive letters from readers asking for more information about his characters. Some requested details of Pook’s early days, while others wanted to hear more about that fiery little nobleman, Honners. In Pook’s Tender Years Peter Pook has tried to satisfy both demands by drawing on the most amusing anecdotes of those formative years from eight to nineteen, and many of these stories are nearer the truth than he cares to admit—such as the derailing of a tram with the aid of a kitchen poker and the destruction of his teacher’s desk by force of gravity. Also on record is Pook’s first meeting with Honners at the Convent of the Holy Angels, where Honners was an unwilling martyr to religious rigours and where Pook’s prayers were directed towards becoming a more proficient prize-fighter. Needless to say, in this book Pook begins his Tale of Woo, as he calls it, with his first love, Olga, and later as an enthusiastic gigolo working for the Renta-Gent Escort Bureau. The abundance of wit and humour to be found in Pook’s Tender Years should satisfy all those readers who enjoyed the previous Pook Books so heartily, as well as attracting many new fans to the Pook brand of fast entertainment.
