Spikey, the all positive star of this musical, is a 6 foot tall porcupine, who speaks in rhymes. The energetic singing and dancing of the 20 local performers, aged 8 to 55, keep young audiences entertained throughout! Kevin Prokosh, Winnipeg Free Press My Kindergarteners enjoyed the music and Spikey himself! Shara Ewasiuk, Kindergarten Teacher Spikey opens stage doors for all ranges, ages and sizes of actors. The musical features powerful messages concerning inclusion and anti-bullying, appealing to all audiences - Katherine Quinton, K-12 Teacher, Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada Thank you for coming to Brandon! I have enjoyed many Spikey performances and no two are ever exactly the same. Love the diversity!! My 3 year old granddaughter had fun and lasted at least 45 minutes and after a little activity break was able to enjoy the final song reaching to the sky : ) She loved the audience participation. My 29 year old daughter in law thought it was humorous. My 80 year old mom enjoyed it and like myself, was so impressed with the rhyme and music with so much meaning!! So it really is a generational presentation with something for everyone!! Best of all, it promotes such great values!!

Today Sophie Spikey has a very big problem. She has lost her shoes, again! There is no way she is asking her mum for help, though. I can fix it all by myself, she thought. Sophie did not have an easy start in life and now she cannot trust grown-ups to help her. Luckily, her new mum is good at guessing when Sophie needs a helping hand. Written by a mum who understands, and her daughter (who did not like asking for help), this is a story for children functioning at age 3-10.

The #1 Bestseller! Twelve-year-old Danny Walker may be the smallest kid on the basketball court -- but don't tell him that. Because no one plays with more heart or court sense. But none of that matters when he is cut from his local travel team, the very same team his father led to national prominence as a boy. Danny's father, still smarting from his own troubles, knows Danny isn't the only kid who was cut for the wrong reason, and together, this washed-up former player and a bunch of never-say-die kids prove that the heart simply cannot be measured. For fans of The Bad News Bears, Hoosiers, the Mighty Ducks, and Mike Lupica's other New York Times bestselling novels Heat, The Underdogs, and Million-Dollar Throw, here is a book that proves that when the game knocks you down, champions stand tall.

A Most Anticipated Book of August at The Millions From the Winner of the BBC National Short Story Award “Jo Lloyd has drawn out all the intensity and latent power of short fiction. . . . A major talent.” —Hilary Mantel “Her sentences could rouse the dead (and do, in this excellent book).” —Karen Russell In Something Wonderful, prize-winning author Jo Lloyd has crafted nine stories that delight in language and shine with wit, wisdom, and deep humanity.

Two women hunt rare butterflies in a pre-First World War landscape already experiencing the first bites of biodiversity loss. A young man tracks down the father who abandoned him inside a festival exhibit. A rural Welsh community is fascinated and angered by glimpses of its invisible, wealthy neighbors. Clear-sighted and lyrical, compassionate, and full of truth, Something Wonderful from Jo Lloyd, winner of the BBC National Short Story Award, announces a remarkable new voice with a sensibility all her own.

The Upper Necaxa Totonac Dictionary represents to-date the most extensive collection of lexical material for any member of the Totonac-Tepehua family and the only such record for this previously-undescribed polysynthetic language, currently spoken in two principal dialects by some 3,400 people, mainly adults, in the Sierra Norte of Puebla State, Mexico. As well as a short grammatical sketch, the dictionary comprises 9,000 lexical entries, including numerous fixed expressions, idioms, and ideophones; each lexical entry is accompanied by part-of-speech information and phonetic transcriptions as well as, where appropriate, dialectal information, grammatical notes (including plurals and classifiers for nouns), literal morpheme-by-morpheme glosses, example sentences, and cross-references to derived forms and semantically-related words. The accompanying DVD includes additional illustrative sentences, audio recordings of headwords and examples, and interlinear glosses for many of the sentences included in lexical entries. This book is the first Totonacan dictionary to be structured for the academic linguist, with special attention paid to the morphological structure of words and the organization of the Totonacan lexicon. Glosses are constructed so as to reflect the underlying complement-structure of words, with careful indication of the number of arguments required by particular lexical items, and all verbs are classified by dynamicity and valency. This dictionary is of interest to linguists working on American indigenous languages, as well as those concerned with the structure of morphologically complex words and the role of derivation in the lexicon of polysynthetic languages. It is also of use to historical linguists and Mesoamericanists interested in the reconstruction of the pre-Columbian history and ethnogeography of Mexico.

This book is the comprehensive, official manual of the widely acclaimed Spikey System of self-defense for women; a proven method that may be used by any woman to defend herself against the threat of violence and sexual assault. Combining approachable text that is newbie-friendly with sophisticated and useful information, this book can be picked up and used by any woman in her daily life. The book is also useful as a learning and teaching aid for qualified teachers and trainers. The learning curve is short, and the exercises are simple and useful. Everything taught is accompanied by high-resolution photographs, with trained student models illustrating a multitude of self-defense scenarios and how these can be overcome. The Spikey System is based on the author's decades of experience dealing with violent assaults in general, and sexual assaults in particular. It includes both the practical, hands on know-how of how to deal with violence in ANY situation, and the many psychological aspects such a challenge may pose; developing an all-encompassing physical awareness and survival skills. Though intended to be used alongside with the Spikey instrument of self-protection, that tool can be substituted with many other items that may be readily found in a woman's bag or pocket. Furthermore, most of the curriculum is based on efficient usage of bare hands for one's defense, and does not rely on any special tools. Anyone may put the techniques to practice under any circumstances, and the book covers self-defense scenarios as diverse as attacks in rooms, cars, staircases, elevators, open areas, and more. Be him big or small, fierce or threatening, no assailant can stand against the power of a determined woman skilled in the usage of the Spikey Methods. Now, you too can become a member of a group of people who have literally taken their safety into their own hands. May Spikey always be there with you and for you!
