  A practical and eye-opening guide to the Aztec philosophy on how to live. 
   
   
   
  The Outward Path refers to the central insight that our true desire as human beings is not really for "happiness," a fleeting mood. What we really want is a rich and worthwhile life, which we can only achieve by pursuing an outward path of engagement with other people. Wisdom is not a matter of "thinking for oneself," but comes through deliberating well in concert with others. Stoic and Buddhist philosophies will teach you to still your mind to address the outside world; but according to the Aztecs, we should cultivate healthy relationships first and then use those to forge a path forward. This "outward path" offers an alternative to the presumptions of our highly individualistic, competitive Western culture, with its epidemic of loneliness and other social ills. 
   
   
   
  Aztec self-help for the modern world, this is the first book in any modern language to present the core ethical principles of the Aztecs. It provides us with surprising insights about how to address concerns common to everyone, from how to make a good decision or strengthen your willpower, to how to sustain love and survive tragedy. Structured around twelve lessons and seven exercises, it's an ethical workout routine designed to help you become a better person—one more deeply rooted and fulfilled.

  History of the Jews - A Concise...

  Jewish history is a rich tapestry woven over millennia, shaped by the development of a people, their religion, and their culture as they interacted with various civilizations, faiths, and cultures. The earliest reference to Israel can be found on the Merneptah Stele, dated to between 1213–1203 BCE, marking the first historical mention of the ancient Israelite people. However, the religious and cultural narrative of the Jews stretches far earlier. Jewish tradition traces its origins to at least 1500 BCE, with religious texts such as the Torah recounting the story of the Israelites, beginning with the patriarchs Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. This historical foundation laid the groundwork for the development of Judaism, which began to emerge as a distinct religion during the Hellenistic period, particularly around 323–31 BCE, as Greek scholars began documenting Jewish practices and beliefs. 
  The trajectory of Jewish history has been marked by a series of dispersals and captivities, with the first significant one being the Assyrian exile of the ten northern tribes in 722 BCE. This event set the stage for a larger dispersion that was solidified with the Babylonian captivity in 586 BCE, when the Jewish elite were taken into exile. Following the Babylonian conquest, Jews began to settle throughout the ancient Near East, which would later become a defining characteristic of Jewish existence. The Jewish people continued to spread across the Mediterranean world, particularly within the vast expanse of the Roman Empire, where they maintained distinct cultural and religious practices even as they interacted with surrounding civilizations. This trend persisted throughout Byzantine rule in the eastern Mediterranean, although the influence of Jewish communities diminished in these regions after the Byzantine Empire lost control of the Levant to the Arab Islamic Empire in 638 CE.

  Dragons: The History of Dragon...

  For millennia, people considered dragons to be real, and the vivid lore of dragons has touched societies from Central America to Europe, and from Egypt to China. The popularity of dragons can easily be assessed by the number of motion pictures that include them as an integral part of their narrative, from the friendly dragons of children’s cartoons to the monsters being bred underground to unleash their horrors on humanity. Indeed, some of humanity’s deepest cultural myths have included dragons, from the Greek and Georgian tale of Jason and the Argonauts to the stories from ancient China that influence modern New Year’s festivities. 
  The English word “dragon” comes from the Greek word “drakon,” which means “snake,” and while people today may have a hard time imagining a dragon as a simple snake, some scientists think that the international nature of the myth is based on the presence of snakes on nearly every continent. Oxford professor of medieval European literature Carolyne Larrington explained, “The anthropologist David E. Jones has suggested that the dragon myth takes its origins from an innate fear of snakes, genetically encoded in humans from the time of our earliest differentiation from other primates. It is true, of course, that it makes evolutionary sense to avoid dangerous animals of every kind, but it is less clear why people should invent stories about imaginary oversized serpents in particular. Nevertheless, there is a clear benefit to tales that warn children against straying into perilous marshy areas where the serpent might seize them, or against scrambling up treacherous mountain sides in search of monsters and treasure hoards.”

  In Nourishing Caregiver Collaborations, Nawal Qarooni invites us to step beyond school-centric, one-off events and practices to create more authentic, engaging collaborations with caregivers. Instead of asking what families can do to support schools, Qarooni asks how schools can identify and celebrate what families already bring to their children's literacy learning. Establishing this work in holistic teaching, Qarooni explores five critical literacy tenets by highlighting opportunities to listen for, honor, connect to, and elevate family strengths while inviting them further into our shared work and encouraging reflection around: 
   
   
   
  ● Recognizing the journey of process 
   
   
   
  ● Celebrating the role collaboration plays within the collective 
   
   
   
  ● Using observational literacy to read the world 
   
   
   
  ● Advocating for the power of talk to grow ideas and connect 
   
   
   
  ● Giving children choice to make self-directed decisions 
   
   
   
  With moments of memoir woven in alongside diverse family examples and classroom stories, Qarooni shows how families contribute meaningfully to their children's literacy lives. Discover how we can tap into those vast wells to support learning at home and in school.
