All Quiet on the Western Front (Dover Thrift Editions: Classic Novels)
by Erich Maria RemarqueA harrowing and unflinching novel about the brutal reality of World War I, All Quiet on the Western Front starkly contrasts the disillusionment and horror of war with a young German soldier's initial fervor and patriotism. As Paul Bäumer and his comrades grapple with relentless shelling, hunger, and the constant fear of death, their youthful idealism crumbles. Erich Maria Remarque's vivid narrative strips away the glory of war, exposing the senseless violence and loss and the psychological torment endured by a generation of soldiers. Arguably one of the most famous war novels of all the Modern era, this timeless classic presents a scathing critique of nationalism, a devastating indictment of war, and an enduring exploration of what it means to be human under extraordinary duress. The tale is so profoundly moving that it has been adapted into an Oscar-winning cinematic masterpiece not once, but twice.
All Quiet on the Western Front (Signature Editions)
by Erich Maria RemarqueI am young, I am twenty years old; yet I know nothing of life but despair, death, fear, and fatuous superficiality cast over an abyss of sorrow. . . This is the testament of Paul Bäumer, who enlists with his classmates in the German army during World War I. They become soldiers with youthful enthusiasm. But the world of duty, culture, and progress they had been taught breaks in pieces under the first bombardment in the trenches. Through years of vivid horror, Paul holds fast to a single vow: to fight against the principle of hate that meaninglessly pits young men of the same generation but different uniforms against one another . . . if only he can come out of the war alive.

Unable to say goodbye, they agree that if they&’re both single at seventy, they&’ll marry each other if only to have a fun companion to travel with . . . But through the years, their friendship grows into something more, and suddenly it&’s up to Stevie to choose happiness . . . Sparkling with hope, All Roads Lead to Rome soulfully examines all the ways a tender heart can be broken—and how faith in the future—and in oneself—can make it whole again . . .
All Subjects in Play: Play-Based Lessons for the Secondary Classroom
by Amy Heusterberg-RichardsEven older students can benefit from play in the classroom—and it doesn’t mean sacrificing rigor. Seasoned educator Amy Heusterberg-Richards shows teachers how embracing play in secondary classrooms can build content, refine skills, and assess understanding, all while inviting joy back into the classrooms of teens who often feel anxious and disfranchised about education.This book describes approaches and rationale for embedding play within secondary classrooms across all disciplines. Each of the 20 lessons includes research-based rationales, step-by-step instructions, samples, student-facing directions, and applications across subject areas. Artificial intelligence (AI)-incorporated ideas are also provided. In a world with apathy and AI, education—even at the secondary level—needs to embrace the ever-natural, always-cathartic experience of playing.By thoughtfully integrating play-based learning, we can enhance classroom management, maintain academic standards, cover the curriculum effectively, and engage older students in meaningful ways. High school learners, too, can laugh and create and pretend as they learn.

All of Us: A First Conversation About Disability (First Conversations)
by Dr. Megan Pamela MadisonBased on the research that race, gender, disability, and other important topics should be discussed with toddlers on up, this read-aloud series offers adults the opportunity to begin important conversations with young children in an informed, safe, and supported way.Developed by experts in the fields of early childhood and activism, this topic-driven picture book offers clear, concrete language and compelling imagery to introduce the concept of disability. This book celebrates all bodies and abilities, just as they are, and addresses the inequities and opportunities for change in today's world.While young children are avid observers and questioners of their world, adults often shut down or postpone conversations on complicated topics because it's hard to know where to begin. Research shows that talking about tough issues from the age of two not only helps children understand what they see, but also increases self-awareness, self-esteem, and allows them to recognize and confront things that are unfair, like discrimination and prejudice. These books offer a supportive approach that considers both the child and the adult. Stunning art accompanies the simple and interactive text, and the back matter offers additional resources and ideas for extending this discussion.

New York Times"Michael Wolff... the shrewdest and most colourful chronicler of the Trump years," Sunday TimesAll or Nothing is the final chapter in Wolff's Fire and Fury series. With extraordinary behind-the-scenes access, it follows every turn of Donald Trump's third presidential campaign. In disgrace after the January 6 attack on the Capitol and sent into exile, Trump immediately sputters back to life. To the shock of the Republican Party leadership, the Trump base has not abandoned him. Hardly a year on, he is as strong as any challenger has ever been. The American establishment is stunned by his comeback and determined to stop it and hold him accountable for his abuses of law and power.

All or Nothing: How Trump Recaptured America
by Michael Wolff<b>NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER </b> <p> The author of Fire and Fury delivers a breathtaking insider account of the 2024 Trump campaign—undoubtedly the wildest, most unpredictable campaign in U.S. history, including multiple criminal trials, two assassination attempts, and a sudden switch of opponents. <p> All or Nothing takes readers on a journey accompanying Donald Trump on his return to power as only Michael Wolff, the foremost chronicler of the Trump era, can do it. As Trump cruelly and swiftly dispatches his opponents, heaps fire and fury on the prosecutors and judges who are pursuing him, and mocks and belittles anyone in his way, including the president of the United States, this becomes not just another election but perhaps, both sides say, the last election. The stakes could not be clearer: Either the establishment destroys Donald Trump, or he destroys the establishment. <p> What soon emerges is a split-screen reality: On one side, a picture that could not be worse for Trump: an inescapable, perhaps mortal legal quagmire; on the other side, an entirely positive political outlook: overwhelming support within his party, ever-rising polling numbers, and lackluster opposition. Through personal access to Trump’s inner circle, Wolff details a behind-the-scenes, revealing landscape of Trumpworld and its unlikely cast of primary players as well as the candidate himself, the most successful figure in American politics since, arguably, Roosevelt, but who might easily seem to be raving mad. <p> Threading a needle between tragedy and farce, the fate of the nation, the liberal ideal, and democracy itself, All or Nothing paints a gobsmacking portrait of a man whose behavior is so unimaginable, so uncontrolled, so unmindful of cause and effect, that it defeats all the structures and logic of civic life. And yet here in one of the most remarkable comebacks in American political history, Trump is victorious. This is not just a story about politics: It is a vivid exposé of the demons, discord, and anarchy—the fire, fury, and future—of American life under Trump.

All the Little Monsters: How I Learned to Live with Anxiety
by David A. RobertsonWith humour, warmth and heartbreaking honesty, award-winning author David A. Robertson explores the struggles and small victories of living with chronic anxiety and depression, and shares his hard-earned wisdom in the hope of making other people’s mental health journeys a little less lonelyFrom the outside, David A. Robertson looks as if he has it all together—a loving family, a successful career as an author, and a platform to promote Indigenous perspectives, cultures and concerns. But what we see on the outside rarely reveals what is happening inside. Robertson lives with “little monsters”: chronic, debilitating health anxiety and panic attacks accompanied, at times, by depression. During the worst periods, he finds getting out of bed to walk down the hall an insurmountable task. During the better times, he wrestles with the compulsion to scan his body for that sure sign of a dire health crisis.In All the Little Monsters, Robertson reveals what it’s like to live inside his mind and his body and describes the toll his mental health challenges have taken on him and his family, and how he has learned to put one foot in front of the other as well as to get back up when he stumbles. He also writes about the tools that have helped him carry on, including community, therapy, medication and the simple question he asks himself on repeat: what if everything will be okay?In candidly sharing his personal story and showing that he can be well even if he can’t be “cured,” Robertson hopes to help others on their own mental health journeys.
