"Talking and Walking" uses a familiar jingle to teach the phonics rule, "When two vowels are together in a word, the first one is long and the second one is silent." That is, the first vowel does the "talking" and the second does the "walking." Illustrated with a football theme, letters on characters' uniforms spell out simple words. True to the rule, the character wearing the first vowel always has something to say. As children read and sing along, they spell and pronounce a series of two-vowel words.

We’ve got plenty of time, darling All these hours are ours We’re walking words and wonder This collection of poems lets the readers dive into their inner selves, gently dragging them beyond words and inviting them to dialogue with their own most instinctive and deepest part with love, strength and spontaneity. During this journey, one can grasp the never banal lightness of the concepts hidden behind the words, sometimes contrasting concepts, other times soft and full of simplicity. Suddenly, naturally, everything that seemed wrong becomes right and bright. Gurmehar Kaur Gulati was born in the happiest family of five, in the lively city of New Delhi, India. She moved to the Emerald Isle (Ireland) at the age of 21 to pursue her MSc in Applied Psychology, and currently lives in Bray, close to ‘her soul-calming’ ocean, living her dream life! She practiced Applied Behaviour Analysis Teaching for kids with autism for a couple of years, then moved on to becoming a Mental Health Specialist, and is presently a Behaviour Support Coordinator at a day service for adults with intellectual disabilities. Seeing happy faces at work and igniting warmth in one’s heart through the written word make her Psychology and Writing career walk in harmony alongside each other. Mehar was always drawn to the literary world and believed in the magic of love from a very young age. She started reading novels and writing poems when she was in the second grade and by the time she was a teenager, there was no stopping her and her power pen. Like most Disney Princesses, she functions on kind words, the goodness of one’s heart, and the faith that things always work out for the best. All she hopes is that her work can bring a smile to your beautiful face, making it even more radiant!

In this ebook download of Walking in the Dust of Rabbi Jesus, Lois Tverberg challenges readers to follow their Rabbi more closely by reexamining his words in the light of their Jewish context. Doing so will provide a richer, deeper understanding of his ministry, compelling us to live differently, to become more Christ-like. We'll begin to understand why his first Jewish disciples abandoned everything to follow him, to live out his commands. Our modern society, with its individualism and materialism, is very different than the tight-knit, family-oriented setting Jesus lived and taught in. What wisdom can we glean from his Eastern, biblical attitude toward life? How can knowing Jesus within this context shed light on his teachings for us today? In Walking in the Dust of Rabbi Jesus we'll journey back in time to eavesdrop on the conversations that arose among the rabbis of Jesus' day, and consider how hearing Rabbi Jesus with the ears of a first-century disciple can bring new meaning to our faith. And we'll listen to Jewish thinkers through the ages, discovering how ideas that germinated in Jesus' time have borne fruit. Doing so will yield fresh, practical insights for following our Rabbi's teachings from a Jewish point of view.

Despite its importance to how humans inhabit their environments, walking has rarely received the attention of ethnographers. Ways of Walking combines discussions of embodiment, place and materiality to address this significant and largely ignored 'technique of the body'. This book presents studies of walking in a range of regional and cultural contexts, exploring the diversity of walking behaviours and the variety of meanings these can embody. As an original collection of ethnographic work that is both coherent in design and imaginative in scope, this primarily anthropological book includes contributions from geographers, sociologists and specialists in education and architecture, offering insights into human movement, landscape and social life. With its interdisciplinary nature and truly international appeal, Ways of Walking will be of interest to scholars across a range of social sciences, as well as to policy makers on both local and national levels.

“Above all, do not lose your desire to walk: every day I walk myself into a state of well-being and walk away from every illness.” —Søren Kierkegaard Duncan Minshull has always walked and in the last twenty years has made use of it by writing and publishing books on the subject. He has described the whys, hows, and wheres of traveling on foot for various magazines and newspapers, including The Times (London), the Financial Times, Condé Nast Traveler, and Vogue. He has edited two other collections on walking: While Wandering: A Walking Companion (originally The Vintage Book of Walking) and The Burning Leg: Walking Scenes from Classic Fiction. Walking and writing have always gone together. Think of the poets who walk out a rhythm for their lines and the novelists who put their characters on a path. But the best insights, the deepest and most joyous examinations of this simple activity are to be found in nonfiction—in essays, travelogues, and memoirs. Beneath My Feet: Writers on Walking rounds up the most memorable walker-writers from the 1700s to the modern day, from country hikers to urban strollers, from the rationalists to the truly outlandish. Follow in the footsteps of William Hazlitt, George Sand, Rebecca Solnit, Will Self, and dozens of others. Keep up with them—and be astonished.
