William C. Harvey

Small bend on front bottom right corner (see picture)

Approaching language details informally and with a minimum of classroom-style presentation, author and educator Harvey offers practical instruction in Spanish basics. The focus is on conversational Spanish for teachers, counselors, administrators, and other employees at schools where Spanish is the first language of many students. Two opening chapters present fundamentals of Spanish speech and word order, and familiarize readers with often-used words and phrases that relate directly to school situations. The two following chapters pertain to Spanish that is most useful for communicating with younger students (pre-school through elementary grades) and older students (middle and high school grades). Remaining chapters offer help for counseling in Spanish in issues relating to health care, career guidance, college assistance, educational administration, special-needs, and extracurricular activities. A Spanish-English and English-Spanish glossary is also provided to help educators find the right word or phrase for a variety of situations.

Laura Hillenbrand

Paperback (1 to 2 lbs)

An Olympian's Journey from Airman to Castaway to Captive

In this captivating and lavishly illustrated young adult edition of her award-winning #1 New York Times bestseller, Laura Hillenbrand tells the story of a former Olympian's courage, cunning, and fortitude following his plane crash in enemy territory. This adaptation of Unbroken introduces a new generation to one of history's most thrilling survival epics. 
 
On a May afternoon in 1943, an American military plane crashed into the Pacific Ocean and disappeared, leaving only a spray of debris and a slick of oil, gasoline, and blood. Then, on the ocean surface, a face appeared. It was that of a young lieutenant, the plane's bombardier, who was struggling to a life raft and pulling himself aboard. So began one of the most extraordinary sagas of the Second World War.
 
The lieutenant's name was Louis Zamperini. As a boy, he had been a clever delinquent, breaking into houses, brawling, and stealing. As a teenager, he had channeled his defiance into running, discovering a supreme talent that carried him to the Berlin Olympics. But when war came, the athlete became an airman, embarking on a journey that led to his doomed flight, a tiny raft, and a drift into the unknown.
 
Ahead of Zamperini lay thousands of miles of open ocean, leaping sharks, a sinking raft, thirst and starvation, enemy aircraft, and, beyond, a trial even greater. Driven to the limits of endurance, Zamperini would respond to desperation with ingenuity, suffering with hope and humor, brutality with rebellion. His fate, whether triumph or tragedy, would hang on the fraying wire of his will.
 
Featuring more than one hundred photographs plus an exclusive interview with Zamperini, this breathtaking odyssey--also captured on film by director Angelina Jolie--is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the ability to endure against the unlikeliest of odds.

Praise for Unbroken

"This adaptation of Hillenbrand's adult bestseller is highly dramatic and exciting, as well as painful to read as it lays bare man's hellish inhumanity to man."--Booklist, STARRED

"This captivating book emphasizes the importance of determination, the will to survive against impossible odds, and support from family and friends. A strong, well-written work."--SLJ

"This fine adaptation ably brings an inspiring tale to young readers."--Kirkus

The Trials and Triumphs of the Black Quarterback

An oral history of the fifty-year struggle to level footballs playing fields

Long after Jackie Robinson broke baseballs color barrier, after Texas Western beat Kentucky to shake up the basketball world, Americas black quarterbacks found themselves trapped on footballs sidelines unable to play the game they loved unless they moved to wide receiver -- or to Canada. A collection of voices young and old, William C. Rhodens Third and a Mile chronicles for the first time the heroic struggle to topple the sports worlds staunchest racial barrier. Filled with personal anecdotes and firsthand recollections, the book includes testimony from NFL greats such as Warren Moon, Doug Williams, Vince Evans, James Harris, Marlin Briscoe, Donovan McNabb, Steve McNair, Daunte Culpepper, and Michael Vick.

The NFLs first five black quarterbacks -- Marlin Briscoe, James Harris, Vince Evans, Warren Moon, and Doug Williams -- have come together to form The Field Generals -- a non-profit organization dedicated to teaching and preserving the history of the African-American quarterback. These men have agreed to participate on all levels in the development and promotion of the book.
