    “The Little Paris Bookshop” by Nina George follows Monsieur Perdu, a Parisian bookseller who runs a floating bookstore, the "Literary Apothecary," on the Seine. Specializing in prescribing books to heal emotional wounds, Perdu has spent years carrying the grief of a lost love. When he discovers a long-hidden letter from the woman who left him, he embarks on a journey down the river, accompanied by a young writer, Max. The novel explores themes of love, loss, healing, and the transformative power of literature, as Perdu confronts his past and opens himself to new possibilities.

    We have to stop treating a pneumonia patient with cough syrup! The majority of leadership books focus on treating the symptoms of poor leadership and not the disease itself. In leadership the symptoms may be low employee engagement, bad communication, lack of trust, and micromanagement, but the underlying disease relates to CHARACTER. 
    Our data proves that people want to follow character. 
    Ask yourself, "Would you follow you?"  
    Unlike other books, Becoming a Leader of Character simply and boldly tells us HOW to develop our character instead of just telling us we need to have it. Developing character is not complicated, but it is hard. Growing always requires a little sweat! 
    "You have to DO what you want to BE!" 
    If you want something more than theories, and you want to BE the Leader of Character your business, your family, and your country desperately need, read Becoming a Leader of Character and start doing what Leaders of Character DO. 
    This book lays out a plan for you to become that leader you would want to follow - a Leader of Character.

    Guilt and shame are siblings, but still different. On a superficial level, guilt seems to be helping us behave ourselves, but if guilt was really effective, almost everyone would have stopped undesirable actions they are taking. The episode deals with the similarities and differences of these annoying feelings, and their futility of them. It also discusses the substitute emotions to feel instead of guilt and shame, which would be more helpful.
    You will also understand why the statement 'People's opinions don't matter' fails to deal with shame and boost your confidence. You will understand how some compensatory behaviours, for instance trying to prove yourself, perfectionism can be exhausting. The episode deals with liberating you by learning the difference between self-interest and being selfish. You will also learn to accept yourself unconditionally without thinking that it's ok to have done the mistake, or fallen short of your standards.

    ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
    "The Black Echo" by Michael Connelly follows Detective Harry Bosch as he investigates the murder of a Vietnam veteran, Billy Meadows, which leads him to a complex bank robbery. The narrative explores themes of corruption, betrayal, and the lingering consequences of the Vietnam War. Bosch's investigation takes him into the city's underbelly, where he uncovers a network of deceit that reaches into his own police department. He works with F.B.I. agent Eleanor Wish, a character who has her own personal motivations related to the war and her family. The story blends a police procedural with elements of a psychological thriller, and reveals how the war has affected the lives of those who served, and those who were left behind. The characters' pursuit of justice clashes with the bureaucratic forces that want to control the story. The plot twists and turns while unveiling the dark secrets of the characters’ pasts, leaving Bosch to question who he can really trust.

    If teachers want an inclusive, engaging classroom, they must learn their students' names. Sound advice, but rarely does it come with practical guidance—which is precisely what this book offers. Eschewing the random tips and mnemonic tricks that invariably fall short, Michelle D. Miller offers teachers a clear explanation of what is really going on when we learn a name, and a science-based approach for using this knowledge to pedagogical advantage. 
     
     
     
    Drawing on a background in the psychology of language and memory, Miller gives a lively overview of the surprising science of learning proper names, along with an account of why the practice is at once so difficult and yet so critical to effective teaching. She then sets out practical techniques for learning names. In her discussion of certain factors that can make learning names especially challenging, Miller pays particular attention to neurodivergence and the effects of aging on this form of memory. A Teacher's Guide to Learning Student Names lays out strategies for putting these techniques into practice, suggests technological aids and other useful resources, and explains how to make name learning a core aspect of one's teaching practice. 
     
     
     
    This concise guide provides teachers of all disciplines and levels an invaluable tool for creating a welcoming and productive learning environment.
