Firefly Books Ltd Titanic
Book Synopsis“The text in the book is quite accessible for the elementary student and yet will appeal to an older audience as well... For use in school and public libraries as well as in personal collections.” —Resource Links. There is no limit to our appetite for the Titanic. The ship’s demise more than 100 years ago still invites curiosity, fascination and conjecture. This is a meticulously reconstructed adventure of the legendary disaster. Author Jim Pipe assumes the role of one of the many journalists that covered the maiden voyage. He describes the facts: the financiers and builders, the shipyard, the layout and state-of-the-art technology, the passengers, the appointments, staterooms, dining rooms and more, and also the “hidden” spaces used by the lower-class passengers and the crew.... And of course, he conveys the public astonishment at this new “wonder of the world,” the biggest ship ever, and unsinkable! The narrator’s imaginary account is combined with period photographs, illustrations, tip-ins, booklets and other ephemera and eyewitness accounts of the sinking, including those by surviving children. He covers the aftermath of the tragedy and includes the reports and inquiries of the official investigation. The chapters are: Birth of the Titanic — with technical details; The Voyage Ahead — with guide to whales and seabirds; Boarding the Ship — with gatefold; Cabins Fit for a King — with “door” flaps; The Height of Luxury — with meal menu; Exploring the Ship — with playing cards; Full Steam Ahead! — with cutaway diagram; The Wireless Room — with secret message in envelope; The Iceberg Hits — with passenger diary; Abandon Ship!; The Rescue — with 1912 newspaper; Aftermath — with booklet showing sinking. From excitement to horror, Titanic is a richly detailed and dramatic experience for readers of all ages.Trade ReviewWell-reasoned, easy-to-follow training guide that is informative for both new and seasoned dog owners.

Book SynopsisAsian American voices and experiences are largely absent from elementary curricula.Asian Americans are an extraordinarily diverse group of people, yet are often viewed through stereotypical lenses: as Chinese or Japanese only, as recent immigrants who do not speak English, as exotic foreigners, or as a model minority who do well in school. This fundamental misperception of who Asian Americans are begins with young learners?often from what they learn, or do not learn, in school.This book sets out to amend the superficial treatment of Asian American histories in U.S. textbooks and curriculum by providing elementary teachers with a more nuanced, thematically driven account. In chapters focusing on the complexity of Asian American identity, major moments in Asian immigration, war and displacement, issues of citizenship, and Asian American activism, the authors include suggestions across content areas for guided class discussions, ideas for broader uTrade Review"Teaching Asian America in Elementary Classrooms is a critically important book that I wish my son's teachers had read. If you teach Asian American children or want to understand Asian American education at the elementary level, you need this incredible book."—Wayne Au, Professor, UW Bothell School of Educational Studies and Rethinking Schools editor“This book is a vital tool in helping teachers tell the story of Asian America. It is the story of America itself, and it deserves to be shared with every student, at every age, all year round.”—Christina Soontornvat, three-time Newbery Honor recipient "This book offers a place to enter when inquiring about Asian and Asian Americans with the full complexity of those categorical markers. With both examples and a humility on the part of the authors, readers are invited into an often invisiblized reality in the U.S. that have always been connected to Asian American organizing for rights over the past two centuries."—Leigh Patel, Professor, University of Pittsburgh School of Education, and Central Chair Committee, Education for LiberationTable of ContentsIntroduction. 1.
