Sinossi

Discover true-to-life stories of figures across the globe whose determination, dreams and hard work allowed greatness in their fields. From politics to the Nobel Peace Prize, each remarkable individual offers a unique story of grit that will resonate with readers of all ages to inspire grit for greatness.

Aaron James Judge got adopted the day after he was born. He became aware of it at around ten years old, yet he remarkably felt at ease with his adoption story. Growing up with his adoptive mother showing him care and affection since he was a baby, Judge never had to think about anything differently or wonder about anything.

He grew up in Linden, California, with his adoptive parents, Wayne and Patty Judge, who were both teachers. His parents were aware of his athletic inclinations at an early age. Aaron was taught to prioritize education, but his parents have also consistently encouraged his athletic capacity. Judge made his Major League Baseball debut in 2016, playing for the New York Yankees. From then, he skyrocketed to baseball superstardom and simultaneously broke records and earned awards. The most remarkable was his 62 home runs in an American League single-season home run record. He surpassed Roger Maris with 61 home runs in 1961, a 61-year history.

    Heavy weather is a lurking spectre that most of us hope and plan to avoid, but not even internet forecasting can make it go away. Anyone intent on crossing oceans must be ready to deal with it if it comes, as well it may. Even well-informed inshore and continental-shelf sailors will inevitably be caught out sooner or later. The object of this slim, quickly absorbed volume is to give everyone, whatever their passage-making aspirations, a sound brief so that whether they find themselves at the wrong end of a force-six blow along the coast, or confronting serious waves far out at sea, they are fully aware of their options for taking it in their stride.Heavy weather is a lurking spectre that most of us hope and plan to avoid, but not even internet forecasting can make it go away.

    Things change, and as the world becomes more challenging, we need to take the time to prepare our children. Not in a threatening or scary way, but in a way that is fun, engaging, and will give them the best possible chance of ensuring their own wellbeing.  
    Spotting Danger Before It Spots Your KIDS is a book about presenting the concepts of situational awareness to children (ages 5 - 12) in a way that will keep them engaged and help them take an active role in their own personal security.  
    This book will show you how to use fun, interactive games to build situational awareness skills such as: How children can identify and understand normal environmental behaviors. How children can spot abnormal behaviors within their given environment. How to give children a plan and a means of avoidance or escape should a dangerous situation present itself.  
    Whether you're a parent, relative, or work in the childcare industry, the things you impart upon children will have a lasting impact on the way they live their lives. Nowhere is this more important than in the area of personal safety. As caregivers, we have a great responsibility for the security and wellbeing of our children, and to guide them along the path to independence.  
    Your child’s future success will depend on their ability to interact with their surroundings and make sound decisions based on what they see. That’s the foundation of situational awareness.  
    Author Gary Quesenberry has spent nearly two decades working as a federal air marshal. The training methods outlined in this book are based on the lessons learned not only as a counter-terror agent but also as a father of three.

    'A man who had such a huge impact on my career and so many other young players at West Ham United. I highly recommend this fantastic read.'FRANK LAMPARD JR
    'This man passed on the West Ham DNA to the best generation of academy graduates to come through the West Ham system.' RIO FERDINAND
    'A West Ham United man, a must read for every West Ham United fan.' MARK NOBLE
    The autobiography of a West Ham legend - including exclusive interviews with Rio Ferdinand, Frank Lampard, Michael Carrick, Joe Cole and Mark Noble.
    
    Tony Carr is one of the most influential coaches of all time. Having achieved his boyhood dream of signing with West Ham United in 1966 and training alongside the inimitable Bobby Moore, a leg break forced Carr to end his playing career before it had even begun. Not to be deterred, he decided to forge himself a new path and was appointed director of youth football at West Ham in 1973, aged just 23.
    
    As Carr tells in this book the very first time, over the next 43 years he honed his craft, becoming hugely admired for identifying and nurturing young talent, guiding multiple generations of international starlets through the ranks at The Academy of Football.
    
    In his brilliant, understated style, Tony tells the incredible story of his footballing life. He recounts the highs and lows of his time with West Ham, with tales of the twelve managers he coached under. This unique evocation of a coach's craft includes exclusive interviews with Rio Ferdinand, Frank Lampard, Michael Carrick, Joe Cole and current West Ham captain Mark Noble as they talk frankly about football and their place within it.
