Nature can provide us with a way of reframing our minds, and dwelling in Gods creation can offer us a space to see, hear, and walk clearly. This clear thinking is what allows us to walk in harmony with the earth and with God, and as we traverse the paths and trails of nature, we can learn more about ourselves and our own personal journeys. In Connecting Trails: The Window of Life, author and naturalist Sean Jungo invites you to join him on his own journey through hundreds of miles of trails in our great National Park system. You will go off the beaten path to some of the most seldom-visited spots in America, and as you follow Seans journey, you will discover that each story has a unique lesson that provides a small piece of the greater puzzle. As each piece is laid down, you have the opportunity to think about your own life and what you can learn. Nature provides the setting for great reflections into the human drumbeat and Gods will for our lives. As we learn about the rhythms and seasons of nature, we learn bits of wisdom we can use to build more fulfilling lives. And no matter where you are on this great journey we call life, relishing in Seans experience of nature can offer a renewed desire to reflect and steadily build your own connecting trails.

This is the story of Baxter Janus, a professional photographer, told from two viewpoints, in two voices; both of them are his. First, an imaginative, precocious, optimistic young boy growing into adulthood looks forward to an exciting life, telling of his dreams and ambitions.

Michael had paused and studied my expression for a while before he let out those heart rending words. Kerry, sorry I can`t do this anymore. My heart beat raced to an all time high. Huh? (While I still had chips of potato in my mouth). What are you talking about? I responded. Michael continued “I want a break! I don't love you anymore” NO! I could not take it anymore. He kept nagging me over one thing or the other. At that point, I lost control of being me. I wanted to be that perfect girl he met and loved. After he broke up with me, I had these repetitive thoughts of “if only”. “If only I was richer and had my own house, he probably won`t have dumped me… if only I was thinner and looked like one of those celebrities and had better features,” and so on and on. “Stop thinking of yourselves as a second-rate being, accept your true self and move on with your life” Cathy my best friend had said to me. These words cut through my heart, and I got my dairy to pen down all I did to get over Michael. If you really want to know what i did, continue reading.

The multiliteracies approach to literacy education has become established as an accessible and effective paradigm for classroom practice in the 21st century. The Multiliteracies Classroom enlivens this theory with its vivid description of events in a real classroom. Teachers will identify with the lively transcripts of classroom interactions, and be inspired to widen students’ access to new literacy practices in an increasingly digital and globalised world. The possibilities and constraints that can be encountered when implementing multiliteracies are explored in detail. Educators know from experience that students begin their classroom journey with entirely unequal opportunities for literacy success. The Multiliteracies Classroom does not ignore this reality, highlighting the influence of society’s patterns of power on literacy learning in the digital age. Its key themes provide a blueprint for the future of literacy research and practice.
