Synopsis

When asked by the school inspector what he thought of poetry, an eleven year old replied that "it's all la-dida and daffodils, isn't it?" In his primary school the boy had come across very little poetry apart from nursery rhymes, snatches of rhyming verse and a few comic pieces and nonsense poems. Poetry to him was something arcane, not really related to his own life. He had studied no powerful, challenging, contemplative, arresting, quirky poems and had written very few poems himself. His teacher admitted that he was no English specialist, had received few ideas at college on the teaching of poetry and didn't really know where to start. As children progress through the primary school they need to be exposed to a rich diet of poetry and encouraged to read, perform and write it themselves. Providing a varied and stimulating environment is essential if is to flourish. In addition, children need specifi c guidance and ideas to start them off writing their own poems. This book, written by a former teacher and school inspector, and popular and widely published children's poet, offers an accessible, practical and structured programme for the teaching of this sometimes neglected aspect of the English curriculum.

    Sample Insights: 
    1) There is a shortcoming in the scientific community where having dissenting opinions from the majority is not welcomed or considered warranted. 
    2) Going against assumptions of medicine would be discrediting millions of doctors and researchers. So instead of acknowledging that our treatments for illnesses such as obesity and Type II diabetes are far from perfect, we continue treating patients as is.

    Quotes by Julia Child, Gordon Ramsay, April Bloomfield, and many more—for chefs, foodies, or anyone who’s ever resolved a crisis by adding more butter.“Clean plates don’t lie.” —Dan Barber Great chefs are not self-effacing or meek—there’s no room for indecision in the professional kitchen, where the slightest stumble can send an entire restaurant into the weeds. So it follows that even in quieter moments, what chefs have to say is usually opinionated and always illuminating. The Chef Says invites readers to the ultimate food-lover’s dinner party, where cooks from ancient Greece rub shoulders and talk shop with today’s rising stars. These unruly culinarians compliment, compete, and disagree with one another as they discuss childhood and training, taste preferences and trends, the quest for perfection, and the grueling but exhilarating business of opening a restaurant. The Chef Says will captivate anyone who has ever worked in a kitchen, been inspired by a flawlessly ripe tomato, or resolved a crisis by adding more butter.  “Will surely tickle the taste buds of any inquisitive food lover.” —Wallpaper*

    Are you or is anyone you know a highly sensitive person? 
      
    In order to answer that question, we have to study the subject, and what distinguishes such a person from others who have “regular” levels of sensitivity. The journey begins in a person’s childhood. Highly sensitive children react differently to the heightened impulses that enter their brains. These stimuli shape their character, their behavior, and their talents. 
      
    Being in love with or related to someone with high sensitivity has its benefits and challenges as well. They typically don’t like being rushed. They don’t like too much drama or too much stimulation of the senses. It’s good to know what to say to them and what not to say to people with sensitive personalities. 
      
    Last but not least, being highly sensitive can have a lot of benefits, ranging from creativity to emotional connection.  
      
    If you want to understand all these things, then start reading the E-Book or listen to the audiobook today!
