Murder in Midtown

By: Liz Freeland

For fans of HBO’s The Gilded Age, explore the dazzling world of America’s 19th century elite in this lush, page-turning saga… In 1913, while the women’s suffrage movement gains momentum in the nation’s capital, the thought of a woman joining the New York City police force is downright radical, even if recent transplant Louise Faulk has already solved a murder . . . Louise has finally gathered the courage to take the police civil service exam, but when she returns to her secretary job at the midtown publishing house of Van Hooten and McChesney, she’s shocked to find the offices smoldering from a deadly, early morning fire. Huddled on the sidewalk, her coworkers inform her that Guy Van Hooten’s body has been found in the charred ruins. Rumors of foul play are already circulating, and the firm’s surviving partner asks Louise to investigate the matter. Despite a number of possible suspects, the last person Louise expects to be arrested is Ogden McChesney, an old friend and mentor to her aunt Irene. Louise will have to search high and low, from the tenements in the Lower East Side to the very clouds above the tallest skyscrapers, to get to the bottom of an increasingly complex case . . .

Space Cadet

By: Liz W Garcia,Astrid Carlen-Helmer

Based on the hilarious Amazon Original movie starring Emma Roberts, this is a feel-good comedy about chasing your dreams—no matter how far they may lead you. Since she was a kid, whip-smart self-starter Rex Simpson has always dreamed of outer space. The biggest champion of her starry aspirations had been her mother, but after her mother's death, Rex’s life remained decidedly more earthbound. But enough is enough. She refuses to let her limited education and complete lack of scientific expertise hold her back any longer. With the enthusiastic encouragement of her best friend, she applies for NASA’s astronaut training program—and gets in. Rex makes both fast friends and bitter enemies with her fellow astronaut candidates (or AsCans), and her instincts, quick wits, and moxie instantly make her a top trainee. But with program administrators closing in on Rex’s true identity, can Rex prove that an ex-bartender and sometimes alligator wrestler may just be what NASA needs?

Teaching Play to Children with Autism

Practical Interventions Using Identiplay

By: Nicky Phillips,Liz Beavan

Providing a structured programme for teaching literacy to children and young people with dyslexia and specific literacy difficulties, this book makes explicit links between theory, research and practice. It offers a structured, cumulative, multi-sensory teaching programme for learners with dyslexia, and draws attention to some of the wider aspects of the learning styles and differences of learners with dyslexia such as memory, information processing and automaticity. The book discusses: - the rationale for a structured multi-sensory approach - the development of phonological, reading, writing and spelling skills - working with learners who have English as an additional language (EAL) - lesson structure and lesson-planning - alphabet and dictionary skills - memory work and study skills - teaching the programme to groups - ideas for working with young children. Designed to help support any learner, from ages five to 18, with dyslexia or specific learning difficulties, the authors encourage the use of the programme as part of everyday teaching to not only develop literacy but to put dyslexic learners in control of their own learning. There are tried and tested strategies and activities provided, which the reader can use to support their literacy work. Particularly useful for teachers working with learners who have special educational needs and specifically those with dyslexia, this book contains everything you need to help improve and develop the literacy skills of the learners in your setting.
