Netgalley review "A great nostalgic book for anyone who grew up in the 70s like I did." Goodreads review " I liked the story because it truly showed who she was, her dreams, what she did when her dreams didn't pan out." Goodreads reviewThis girl would never forget the summer of 1968. She had her friends, her favorite music, and the love of one boy who remained within the depths of her heart. 1968>2016>When Annie retreats to a 1920s cottage in the suburbs of Birmingham, Alabama, she loses herself in the restoration of the house and gardens. She feels like a social outcast and wants nothing to do with her former country club life, but her matchmaking best friend, Carol Blaine, has other ideas. Annie is plagued with social anxiety and painful insecurity and isn't ready to meet anyone. But when Annie rediscovers her teenage journal from 1968 and the tattered scrapbook from the most memorable summer of her life, she realizes her deep love for Mitch Brandon never stopped - it was just put on hold for fifty years. Their breakup so many years ago was brutal, but she never forgot the shy and handsome boy who captured her heart at first glance. Annie can't help but wonder - does Mitch still live in the area? Is he married? Would she recognize him if she saw him again? But all the questions lead her to a painful reality. Is he still alive? Annie's hopes and dreams are instantly filled with the boy from so long ago, but the chance of reconnecting with Mitch is one in a million - until one morning, she hears a familiar voice from the past. Wonderful for fans of Rachel Hanna, Lauren K. Denton, Karen White, and all believers in second chances. I love to connect with my readers! Contact me at www.jayeburke.com

The giant triton (Charonia tritonis) is a beautiful shell and a well-known predator of the crown-of-thorns starfish (Acanthaster planci). In many parts of the third world, it is still being collected in large numbers and sold to tourists as ornaments. As you admire the beautiful shell, spare a thought for the hungry mollusc that died. And don't forget, they live on starfish.Many species of starfish are known to outbreak in different parts of the world. Prior to human collection, the giant triton might have controlled starfish numbers not by eating the many, but by preventing the aggregation that precedes the outbreak. At present, little is known of any aspect of the triton's ecology despite its obvious importance in controlling starfish numbers.While the giant triton may be protected on the Great Barrier Reef and elsewhere in Queensland, there is still no evidence this protection has resulted in restored populations of the giant triton. However, there is evidence of continuing illegal collection and trade in Indonesia where it is also legally protected. It is now worth reconsidering whether the existing local protection is sufficient or whether further international protection is required by listing the Giant Triton in Appendix 2 of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES).
On the vital subject of disciple-making, there is no better pattern than the ways of Jesus Himself. Discipling Like the Master confronts present Christian ministry with the private ministry of Christ.
This book is about "subitizing." It's a critical, but almost universally overlooked, very early math skill. The author is a Harvard MBA who became so concerned about "what's happening" in early math education as she tutored her own children that she turned her attention to how children learn math (and what can go wrong) and earned a PhD in Math Ed. What's subitizing? Subitizing involves recognizing small quantities (like groups up to 3 or 4) without counting. It's an absolutely key, but rarely taught, foundational math skill. By starting with subitizing, Very Early Math - SET 1 helps your child build a strong math foundation. Subitizing isn't only important for its own sake, it's key to developing strong counting skills, especially learning why we count and how counting works. Perhaps you're thinking, "But, my child can already count to 10 or 20, so why subitize?" Here's why. Many children who are great at rote counting have no idea why they are counting. To them counting has no mathematical meaning, it's just a rhyme they say as they point to and touch things. For many of these children, they'll count a group, "one, two, three," and think "three is the name of the last item they counted, not the size of the group (of three). And if that view persists, what will 1 + 3 = 4 mean to that child? That an item named "1" + and item named "3" = an item named "4" because "that's the rule." YIKES! That doesn't work! Such children will be able to master rote counting and memorize math facts, but they won't understand the math they represent. Their math foundation will comprise unconnected memorized information lacking in mathematical meaning. Since all arithmetic, like 1 + 3 = 4 is based on the foundational idea that numbers tell us the size of groups, why not be sure we establish that understanding of numbers right away. Subitizing does this. Rote counting does not. But starting with subitizing isn't enough. It turns out that the way we teach a child to count matters, and a lot of what we think is helpful, isn't. That's where Very Early Math - SET 2 comes in. This book helps your little one to count in a way that has been shown to give children the understanding of numbers they'll need to understand math. (Studies find that small differences in how a child is taught to count can make a very big difference in their understanding of numbers.) Like early phonics books, these very early math books give you page after page of carefully designed and sequenced math materials to help your little one build key early math skills. So, be sure to check out Very Early Math - SET 1 & 2. Using them before you give your little ones counting books and workbooks can make a big difference!

Reviews for That Book series and David Conley A totally delightful, energetic and imaginative book. For lovers of the ancient world, young and old! Ursula Dubosarsky, Author of over 50 books and Australian Children's Laureate 2020-2021 David Conley is a bigger legend than Odin and a bigger marvel than Marvel! He puts the Rock into Ragnarök and the Norse into Norsænivegavinnuverkfæraskúrinngullhringur!!!! This is how the Greeks would have illustrated their myths and legends and it's what the Norse gods really looked like! Trust me, I've asked them. I loved reading his mythologies - though I had to build a wooden horse and hide inside it to sneak into my son's room to get the books off him to read them. Dr Craig Cormick OAM, award-winning author of over 40 books for the young and young at heart.Did you know that the ancient Egyptians worshipped a bin chicken-headed god? That talented Dave Conley knows this and many other Egypt-related stuffs and they're all here in this book! Jam-packed (did the Egyptians eat jam? I don't know, ask Dave Conley!) with more illustrations than the inside of Tutankhamun's tomb, this is a MUST READ for anybody interested in papyrus, embalming, sand and pointy triangle buildings.Jol 'Bin Chicken' Temple, 50% of the pair of Kate and Jol Temple, critically acclaimed authors of lots of books I really like. Whenever Terry and I take our time-travelling rubbish bin for a spin through the ancient mythical lands of Greece or Midgard, we always take David Conley as our guide- and if he's not available then we take one of his books. He's the most knowledgeable expert on Greek and Norse mythological figures we've ever met, and we've met them all!
