Pages : 0
Book Description
17-year-old Dylan Geringer isn't a superhero, but there's still hope for her anagram-inspired alter ego, DARLING ENERGY. When the all-call system at Dylan's high school sends out a series of mysterious, automated phone messages in the middle of the night, Dylan and her partner-in-crime, Steven, won't rest until they find out who's sending them and why they've prompted the town to gather at Valley Forge Park on the Ides of March. Within days of the first message, Dylan and Steven's investigation yields bigger and more private mysteries among the lives of their classmates and especially about their favorite English teacher, Mr. Drake. The fact that March 15th is both Dylan's birthday and the ten-year anniversary of the death of Mr. Drake's son, Benjamin, complicates the countdown. Dylan will need to summon all of her Darling Energy powers to wrangle the town together and keep it from falling apart, and she'll need Steven's help to save Mr. Drake from the gathering crowd of marching bands, barbershop quartets, and robed cultists.

Forgotten Children
Author: Linda A. Pollock
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521271332
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
'The history of childhood is an area so full of errors, distortion and misinterpretation that I thought it vital, if progress were to be made, to supply a clear review of the information on childhood contained in such sources as diaries and autobiographies.' Dr Pollock's statement in her Preface will startle readers who have not questioned the validity of recent theories on the evolution of childhood and the treatment of children, theories which see a movement from a situation where the concept of childhood was almost absent, and children were cruelly treated, to our present western recognition that children are different and should be treated with love and affection. Linda examines this thesis particularly through the close and careful analysis of some hundreds of English and American primary sources. Through these sources, she has been able to reconstruct, probably for the first time, a genuine picture of childhood in the past, and it is a much more humane and optimistic picture than the current stereotype. Her book contains a mass of novel and original material on child-rearing practices and the relations of parents and children, and sets this in the wider framework of developmental psychology, socio-biology and social anthropology. Forgotten Children admirably fulfils the aim of its author. In the face of this scholarly and elegant account of the continuity of parental care, few will now be able to argue for dramatic transformations in the twentieth century.
