Papa Brings Me the World
Author: Jenny Sue Kostecki-Shaw
Publisher: Henry Holt and Company (BYR)
ISBN: 1250788846
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 23
Book Description
Jenny Sue Kostecki-Shaw's Papa Brings Me the World is a poignant picture book that celebrates the bond between parent and child, and follows their long-distance trip around the world. Most parents drive a car or ride a bus or train to work—but not Lulu’s papa. He navigates mountains, deserts, and oceans, each time returning home with pockets full of treasures. There’s an ancient calculator from China, a musical mbira from Zimbabwe, and a special game from Sumatra. But the best treasures are special stories Papa tells when he comes home—tales of playing peekaboo with rare birds in the Andes and befriending dragons in the Irish Sea. This long-distance love story between parent and child celebrates inclusivity, imagination, and the richness of global cultures. Christy Ottaviano Books

My Father's Glass Eye
Author: Jeannie Vanasco
Publisher: Bloomsbury Academic
ISBN: 9780715653777
Category : Fathers and daughters
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
A definitive new voice in this stunning portrait of a daughter's love for her father and her near-unravelling after his death. My Father's Glass Eye is Jeannie's struggle to honour her father, her larger-than-life hero, but also the man who named her after his daughter from a previous marriage, a daughter who died. After his funeral, Jeannie spends the next decade in escalating mania, in and out of hospitals - increasingly obsessed with the other Jeanne. Obsession turns to investigation as she plumbs her childhood awareness of her dead half-sibling and hunts for clues into the mysterious circumstances of her death. It becomes a puzzle she must solve to better understand herself and her father. Jeannie pulls us into her unravelling with such intimacy that her insanity becomes palpable, even logical. A brilliant exploration of the human psyche, My Father's Glass Eye deepens our definitions of love, sanity, grief, and recovery. AUTHOR: Jeannie Vanasco is the highly acclaimed author of Things We Didn't Talk About When I Was A Girl. Her writing has appeared in the Times Literary Supplement, The New York Times, and the New Yorker. She lives in Baltimore where she is an Assistant Professor of English at Towson University.

When Mom told me she was getting married again and moving her new husband and his twenty-four year old son in with us, I thought I'd just have to spend as much time as possible studying in the campus library to avoid all of them.I certainly never expected to learn that the marriage was simply a mutually beneficial arrangement for my mom and new stepfather, Mr. Winters. They don't actually have feelings toward each other. I also didn't expect him and my stepbrother, Dominick, to be such handsome, Viking-like men. Or for them to take such an interest in me.Now at the age of 19, I suddenly find I have the family I've always wanted. As we all grow closer, though, lines start to blur. When Daddy and big brother start pushing those boundaries even further, will I be ready? Intended for mature audiences only. Contains dark, taboo themes and dubious consent.
