DOWNLOAD EBOOKDaisy Mays Lazy, Crazy Days is an autobiography, written by me, a beautiful tuxedo cat. Well, actually I am unable to write in people words, so I decided that I would tell my life story to a human author named A-Jay. He is one of the very few humans who understands cat language and was able to translate into people language whatever I dictated to him. The concept of a cat telling her story is unique, and children of all ages from early elementary school age to adults should enjoy hearing me tell about my habits, my animal friends, my adoptive parent, Lu-Jo, my likes and dislikes, and how I spend my days in my home, which I refer to as a palace. I also show off my sense of humor whenever I can in this book. For example, I said at one point, I hope you find my autobiography interesting with a litter bit of fun. The chapter headings listed in the Contents will give you a good idea as what to expect in this delightfully creative piece of literature, a must for even those who are totally unfamiliar with cats. Daisy May will definitely endear herself to all her readers. So enjoy!

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis may be a book about an ordinary life but it is more than that, much more. Firstly, if Basil Jays life has been ordinary, then the Bugatti Veyron Super Sports is a family saloon. In his life he has been described as many things. A Surveyor, a Businessman, and an Entrepreneur. A Musician, a Poet, a Writer and a Thespian. An Adventurer, a Chancer, a Receiver of Stolen Goods, an Alleged Money Launderer, a Tax Fugitive (as denounced in the Houses of Parliament). But most of all, a Husband, a Father and a Grandfather, and finally an ex-patriot living in a hot and balmy exile where he was effectively forced by an unrelenting tax inspector at the end of the nineteen-eighties (an action for which Basil is now able to offer his heartfelt thanks). He has been locked up for a killing in Afghanistan, witnessed a ritual stoning for adultery in Ghazni, held up by gunmen in the Khyber Pass, accused of drug smuggling in Pakistan, and spent almost five days, in a Turkish Bath in Istanbul whilst being coerced (unsuccessfully) to front a 300 million shakedown inTurkey just an ordinary life. Basil uses his fascinating life as the thread with which to lead the reader through the six decades of the twentieth- century that followed the second world-war. The bombed ruins of the FORTIES, the austerity of the FIFTIES, the music and burgeoning promiscuity of the SIXTIES, the hopes of the SEVENTIES, the aspirations of the EIGHTIES, the political incompetence but strange peace of the NINETIES, and into the so called, NEW DAWN of the Third Millennium. Basil is an able guide, there is not a decade where he has not been in the thick of the social, political, or business action. His story is the story of an ordinary man, living an ordinary life, but getting into the most outrageously extra-ordinary scrapes,(almost all of them of his own making). It is a living, and a social history written in the honest and hilarious style for which Basil Jay has become known. It is a read which can be thoroughly recommended

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn her skillful debut novel, Kij Johnson took the classic Japanese myth of the fox who dared to become a woman to win true love and created The Fox Woman, a luminous, lyrical tale of love, desire, joy, and the nature of the soul. Set in the same universe as The Fox Woman, this time Kij Johnson takes on another animal totem and enters the world of the creature who comes to be known as Kagaya-hime, a sometime woman warrior, occasional philosopher, and reluctant confidante to noblemen. And who may or may not be the figment of the imagination of an aging empress who is embarking on the last journey of her life, setting aside the trappings of court life and reminiscing as she follows the paths that are leading her to the nunnery and death. Fudoki is the tale of a being who starts her journey on the kami, or spirit road, as a humble-if ever a being such as a Cat can be humble-small tortoiseshell feline. She has seen her family destroyed by a fire that decimated most of the Imperial city. This loss renders her taleless, the only one left alive to pass on such stories as The Cat Born the Year the Star Fell, the Cat with a Litter of Ten, the Fire-Tailed Cat. Without her fudoki-self and soul and home and shrine-she cannot keep the power of her clan together. And she cannot join another fudoki because, although she might be able to win a place within another clan, to do so would mean that she would cease to be herself. So a small cat begins an extraordinary journey. Along the way she will attract the attention of old and ancient powers, including gods who are curious about this creature newly come to Japan's shores, and who choose to give the tortoiseshell a human shape. And who set her on a new kami road, where Kagaya-hime will have to choose a way to find what happiness she can. Weaving a haunting story of one being's transformation and journey of discovery with the telling of another's long life set against the backdrop of the courtly rituals of Imperial power, Kij Johnson has written a powerful novel about the nature of freedom and the redemptive power of transformation--if only one is brave enough to risk it all. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTable of Contents Introduction Sibling Rivalry and Bullying Types of Bullying Violence in the Office And Domestic Violence Social Media and Cyber Bullying Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction This book is going to talk about one of the most common activities found in human behavior. This is a natural instinct to intimidate, act aggressively and try to cow down the people around you, to show that you are the dominant Alpha person around. This is normally done through threatening, coercion and abusing, and the use of force, either physical or mental or emotional. This book is going to talk about the psychology behind bullying, the reason why people want to do it, how to face it, and survive it, and how to recognize this tendency in other people. This book is for all those who have felt the negative impact of bullying, at least sometime during their childhood our youth, or perhaps taken part in a mob or a group activity of bullying somebody, just because everybody else was doing it, or just for the fun of it. Sadly enough, that last activity is getting to be more and more common among the younger generation, because it fulfills a desire in them to be considered a part of a social whole, or part of a peer group. Nevertheless, this has never been a 21st-century phenomenon, it has been present when the world was young and it is going to be present 10 millenniums from now in some form or the other. Bullying down the ages has never been restricted to just one race or social class or gender. It is instinctive, and human beings have always looked for soft targets, which they can harass physically or verbally, through threat, mental and physical assault and even force or coercion. The victims are normally going to be people different from them, in matters of physical appearance, gender, race, social class, strength, ability, behavior or any other factor, which can be used as an excuse to intimidate a person more helpless than you are. Man doesn’t need an excuse to bully a person weaker than he is. The underlying instinct for showing that he is a person of power, especially over somebody who cannot fight back or who is incapable of doing so satisfies some uncivilized atavistic feeling in him, which has been passed down, down the ages, and no amount of civilized behavior is going to get this instinct out of Mans’ genes.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTurtles All the Way Down meets Love and Luck in this “lively” (Publishers Weekly), romantic road trip story about a teen girl’s last chance to have an epic summer with her best friend before everything changes. Florie’s OCD and her mother’s worrying have kept her from a lot of things, like having an after-school job and getting her driver’s license. And now that she’s graduated high school, while her best friend Kacey is headed off to Portland in the fall, Florie’s taking a parent-sanctioned gap year off before starting college. When the decision was made, Florie was on board, but now she can’t ignore the growing itch to become the person she wants to be and venture outside the quaint, boring Washington town she grew up in. Winning tickets to see her favorite true crime podcast’s live show in California gives her the opportunity to do just that, if only for a few days. So—unbeknownst to their parents—Kacey and Florie set off on a road trip to San Francisco. The only downside in Florie’s opinion? Sam, Kacey’s older brother and Florie’s forever crush, is their ride. The Samson Hodge, who Florie hasn’t seen since winter break, and who she’d prefer to never see again, if possible. But Florie is willing to put up with Sam if it means one last adventure with her best friend. Making it to San Francisco and back to Washington without their parents catching on isn’t a given, but one thing is for sure: this trip will change everything.
