![]() ![]() In The Queen of the Frogs the muted browns, greens, and reds and the charm of the frog drawings themselves, are true to the story with true merit of their own. Reviewed by Stacey on To me a children's book should be rich with illustrations that tell the story visually interpreting the text from the author. I can see it being a story that is read over, and over again. The book would be perfect for bedtime reading, alongside class reading. I loved the large, colourful, eye catching illustrations that are adorned throughout, which are full of character. It was a joy to read, and the story was captivating, and full of fun. The Queen of Frogs, is a young children’s hardcover book. You’re going to have to read the book to find out if he managed it, and how? One day one of the frogs came up with a fantastic idea to get things back to normal. She bossed them about, demanded the largest lily pad, and was constantly hungry, so they had to work hard to catch flies for her. Soon, they were fed up of having a queen. The other frogs all called her ‘queen’ and starting chanting ‘long live the queen’. When they got back to the surface one of the frogs was wearing the item on her head, a crown. The frogs dived to the bottom to find the item. One summers evening whilst they were sat singing around the pond, something dropped into the water. ![]() ![]() In the pond lived lots of happy frogs, doing froggy things and enjoying life. ![]() ![]() ![]() She is mystified by how easily her students lie, unnerved by their obedience to the regime. Life at PUST is lonely and claustrophobic, especially for Suki, whose letters are read by censors and who must hide her notes and photographs not only from her minders but from her colleagues - evangelical Christian missionaries who don't know or choose to ignore that Suki doesn't share their faith. Over the next six months, she will eat three meals a day with her young charges and struggle to teach them to write, all under the watchful eye of the regime. It is 2011, and all universities in North Korea have been shut down for an entire year, the students sent to construction fields - except for the 270 students at Pyongyang University of Science and Technology (PUST), a walled compound where portraits of Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il look on impassively from the walls of every room, and where Suki has accepted a job teaching English. ![]() It is a chilling scene, but gradually Suki Kim, too, learns the tune and, without noticing, begins to hum it. A haunting memoir of teaching English to the sons of North Korea's ruling class during the last six months of Kim Jong-il's reignĮvery day, three times a day, the students march in two straight lines, singing praises to Kim Jong-il and North Korea: Without you, there is no motherland. ![]() ![]() ![]() And her current book, an autobiography, stirs up a controversial commotion in her school, family, and community. But the LGBTQ+ genre she chooses to write about doesn’t sit well with the conservative town in which she lives. When she writes as Brooke, she becomes her and feels free from dealing with her own unsettled life. While their romantic relationship was short, it was extraordinary, intensely significant in Taylor’s life, and something she has kept a secret since then. Taylor finds solace in writing novels under the pen name Brooke Skipstone-the name of her college roommate who had been her best friend for years and then her lover for the two days prior to Brooke’s tragic death at the hands of someone close to Taylor. Taylor doesn’t trust Marshall, nor does he trust her, and the love they have for each other appears to be in the distant past, if it was ever there at all. Seventy-year-old substitute teacher Taylor MacKenzie and her husband Marshall live in Clear, Alaska and have three children-two sons who they rarely see, and a troubled daughter who had died from a seizure years earlier. ![]() ![]() Marie Curie essentially killed herself through her work in radium, working closely as well with her husband Pierre. In this luminous, enchanting illustrated biography of Madame Curie and cultural history of radioactivity by Lauren Redniss, she counters Curie’s own contention, and in chapter headings-Symmetry, Magnetism, Fusion-reveals that scientific terms can also be personal and passionate ones. ![]() there is no connection between my scientific work and the facts of private life"-Marie Curie ![]() "I coined the term radioactivity"-Marie Curie a collective corona that still glows”-Douglas Hofstadter ![]() “In the wake of a human being's death, what survives is a set of afterglows, some brighter and some dimmer, in the collective brains of those who were dearest to them.Though the primary brain has been eclipsed, there is, in those who remain. ![]() ![]() ![]() Within this title, the author quotes Lady Cynthia Asquith: “…in really well-ordered households it was… the rule that no housemaid should ever be seen broom or duster in hand.” ![]() Apparently it was more about appearances than actual involvement and work. Yet… Mistresses of the household were expected to maintain control of the household finances, avoid waste, and ensure matters ran smoothly. ![]() ~Katharine Chorley, quoted in Life in a Victorian Household "Like a large house and garden, a wife or daughter with nothing to do was an emblem of success." It explains a great deal in four chapters: 1) Middle-class Victorian Homes, 2) Mistress of the Household, 3) Recruiting and Replacing the Servants, and 4) Life Below Stairs. I read this book specifically for my own ongoing research and understanding of history. ![]() ![]() That's what powers the imagination, the spark of possibility.Īs for this book, my book reaction is: BWAHAAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA LOLOLOL ARE YOU FUCKING SHITTING ME? Because there is no way in hell anything in this book is believable. In order for willing suspension of disbelief to happen, there has to be an iota of credibility, some tiny fragment that makes our mind say "this could be true, there's a slight chance this might happen." It sets up for the enjoyment of a book. It is a tool passively exercised by the reader to believe what we read in a book is within the realm of possibility. Let me talk to you for a moment about willing suspension of disbelief. It was hilariously, spectacularly, hysterically unbelievable. In case I haven't made that quite clearĥ. Like what? Why? Where did that come from?Ĥ. Completely needless moment of romance where Mia and Antoine know each other for all of a few pages and all of a sudden kisses. You could skip to the last 15% of the book and know what you need to knowģ. 50% of the book is spent introducing us to the bratty and annoying Mia, the token Japanese girl (she's Japanese so she can tell scary Japanese stories), and the spectacularly unmemorable MiaĢ. ![]() Granted, we're only a few days into 2016, but the fact remains that this book is awful. ![]() ![]() This is the dumbest book I've read this year. ![]() ![]() ![]() Her methods enable people to prevent conflicts, avoid stalemates in sales, successfully run high-stakes negotiations and presentations to help everyone get what they need.
