Groundwood Books Ltd ,Canada Popol Vuh
Book SynopsisThe Mayans have long fascinated modern readers with their complex written language, sophisticated mathematics, and advanced astronomy. In Guatemala in 1558, a young Mayan K’iche’ man transcribed what he called a sacred book that we can no longer see.” This was the Popul Vuh, the Mayans'' written account of the creation of the universe, the gods and demi-gods who occupied that universe, and the story of how man was created by them. Furthermore, it traced, generation by generation, the lineage of the Mayan lords down to their imprisonment and torture by the Spanish invaders. Considered the Mayan bible, the Popol Vuh appears here in an authoritative, gorgeously illustrated version by noted Maya anthropologist Victor Montejo, who has captured all the drama and excitement of one of the world’s great creation stories.

It makes a strong case for taking up these difficult issues in schools, and it will be very helpful to lots of folks."—Dr. Richard Weissbourd, Senior Lecturer at the Harvard Graduate School of Education and Kennedy School of Government"In Learning to Depolarize, Lenci offers all of us—educators and parents/guardians—a research-based approach to engaging the "other," those whose beliefs differ from our own. The education landscape has become the epicenter for the polarizing culture wars, and Lenci offers practical suggestions that stem from his own experiences in the classroom. This book is insightful, well-researched, straightforward, courageous, and inspirational. In short, this book is a must read!" —Bonnie J.

Taylor & Francis Providing HyperLocalized Early Childhood
Book SynopsisThis important and engaging resource offers a step-by-step framework for developing early childhood community programming that centers the learning needs of children, supersedes socioeconomic barriers, and activates the power of community.The book centers on an in-depth exploration of the Early Learning Neighborhood Collaborative (ELNC), a place-based, early learning collaborative that provides funding, innovative shared support services, and advocacy to partner organizations rooted in vulnerable communities, with the primary goal of readying children for the first day of kindergarten. The author details the concept and practice of a place-based intentional preschool system, including the lessons that were learned through the creation of ELNC and how it successfully prepares children of color for success in school and beyond. The program uses a two-generation approach in which families are coached to address barriers that keep them from being their child's first teachers and Trade Review"Early childhood programs help stabilize families and communities," says a parent. Accordingly, Providing Hyper-Localized Early Childhood Programming: A Framework from the Early Learning Neighborhood Collaborative (ELNC) is a must read for those interested in early learning based on core infant mental health principles needed for babies and young children to develop: safe, nurturing, predictable environments, parent and family engagement, and ongoing professional development for teachers.
