When Willow leaves her cozy barn for Washington, DC, and the big white house where she will now live, Willow discovers new rooms to explore and is welcomed by the nice lady she met at Farmer Rick’s farm.

Book Description
There is an old song that goes, "Look down, look down, that lonesome road, before you travel on." Facing that lonesome road, the adult might travel on. Often, the child can't. During her twenty-year career as a school social worker, Anne Stilwell worked with two thousand "problem" children. She and her husband, professional writer Hart Stilwell, present here twenty-one factual accounts of children who suffered rejection in the public schools. Some of the children in these accounts are unusually bright and some are mentally retarded. They are belligerent and destructive or withdrawn. They are from broken homes or happy homes, from the slums or Middle America. They are blacks, Chicanos, and Anglos. There is only one common denominator among these children—tragedy. Every classroom teacher will gain from this sympathetic evaluation of the problems faced by children in the public schools. No one who reads this book can remain unaware of major areas that call for deep concern on the part of educators and parents. The Stilwells have described school children and their problems and at the same time offered telling portraits of the families of which the youngsters are a part. In the struggle to see that the problem child has a chance to develop and advance within the limits of his or her ability, parents, teachers, administrators, and social workers must work together or all fail. When they fail, the child must walk alone. The authors' objective in presenting these cases is to show what has happened and does happen, and to encourage others to work for change. A prominent educator describes their account as "an exceptionally worthwhile teaching document—stimulating, touching, well written, and honest." While this book was originally written in 1972, the issue of rejection in the public schools is, sadly, still timely.

Book Description
An analysis of Modern Irish syntax in which the particular of Irish grammar are shown to inform more general theoretical issues, revealing both the scope of Universal Grammar and the limits on syntactic variation. One by one considers all the major structures of Irish and compares them with structures in Germanic, Romance, Semitic, and other language families. Focusing on the concept of functional projection, shows that appealing to the theoretical notions of functional head and of Head Movement, allows for a highly restrictive account of Irish word order. Also analyzes consonant mutation as a form of syntactic representations. Based primarily on Chomsky's early theories, but also draws on his later work and more recent researchers. Of interest to specialists in theoretical syntax and comparative grammar, and perhaps to dedicated scholars of Celtic languages and linguistics. Unlike many civil servant posts, does not require a knowledge of Irish. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
