This book was developed to compare the real life educational experiences of an average child during the last generation in which the United States led the world in education to a real child's experiences today (when the United States is no longer in the top 20). The practice of labeling students with a disability has reached the status of a dangerous standard practice. Increasing demands for educational accountability will lead to more students being labeled and left behind. Written from a unique in-depth child's point-of-view, this book is designed to trigger a paradigm shift from automatically labeling children to patiently allowing them to grow into themselves. The author compares common disabilities chapter-by-chapter in sync with the child's intentions (or lack thereof). This sharing of the educational lives of two children, coupled with peer reviewed literature and research, provides powerful motivation for change....

Of Life and Love: Eight Moral Tales is a collection of short stories written within the African tradition of storytelling. As the subtitle suggests, all eight tales have a strong moralistic twist, and a range of settings. Written to offer insight into how life's choices are influenced by life experience, and to show a range of different perspectives on moral issues, this collection is also a refreshing take on the short story genre. Author Freddy Fynn was born in Ghana, West Africa. Growing up in a community of storytellers had a big impact upon him and has helped him to create his unique writing voice. The eight tales contained within this collection are all influenced by African themes and a touch of Christian ideology. The collection includes tales such as: A King's Lullaby - in a small African village, a wise King's sayings are chronicled. In the Tenderness of Love a housewife must choose forgiveness or divorce after discovering her husband's infidelity.

Justin Rollins has a remarkable ability. His poems emerge not from agonising over a blank sheet of paper, but in rap-like fashion, in full-flow and in their complete form. This collection takes the reader on a journey on which those familiar with his autobiographical The Lost Boyz will recognise the landmarks as the streets and characters of his native south-London once again spring into life. But this is fresh and captivating work. It deals with the everyday effects of disadvantage, the tensions of wealth and poverty, freedom and incarceration with glimpses of a sometimes dark past, motivational now and uncertain though optimistic future. What registers strongly is Rollins’ eye for detail, injustice, the telling remark, the eccentric, the absurd, clandestine places and parallel realities. Much of this is driven by his years living on the streets chasing excitement to compensate for the lack of things that come through a conventional upbringing. The result is a raw journey captured in snapshots of survival, crime, pain and the author’s travels on the Northern Line.
