“Anything to do with dragons seems to involve danger,” While on a school trip to Wales Peter, who has been deemed dragon kin by the dragons in Scotland, comes across a red Welsh dragon who desperately needs his help. She is being hunted by a witch’s evil flying gargoyles who are searching for the very special dragon which has been given into her care. Peter is asked to hide the little dragon away when he returns home. Peter and his sidekick, the ex-bully boy, Biffy have to somehow keep one step in front of the witch, particularly as her flying gargoyles can kill humans with just a touch of their poisonous talons. Their journey takes them once again to the magical Isle of Harris in the Outer Hebrides where they join forces with McDragon and the other Scottish Dragons. In trying to protect tiny McFinnia they have to ensure they do not come across their old foe, the evil wizard McMuran. Peter must also consider whether anything can be done about the new bully boy gang when he returns to school. How can a small disabled boy cope in the face of this threat?

The Ponies and Taren

By: Pam G Howard

A passion for ponies means that winning a scholarship to a school with fabulous stables is a dream come true for Taren, that is until one of the girls takes an instant dislike to the newcomer and decides to make her life miserable from the start. Luckily, her new friend Max makes life a little more bearable. Having been brought up with three brothers, Taren is a great footballer and the girls’ football team is keen to try her out until Taren is unfairly blamed for injuring a pony owned by the nasty bully girl and they question whether she should be invited to join them. Finding herself banned from the school’s stables until her name is cleared, is heart wrenching for her, particularly as she wonders whether her kindness might help a rescued and lonely pony living there. Battle lines having been drawn means that it is up to Taren to try to prove her innocence and find her way to fit in with the other students. Would she be able to do that? Ponies, friendship, football and truth make this a really excellent romp of a read.

McDragon

By: Pam G Howard

McDragon is a fantasy tale for children age 7 and over, which tells the story of Peter as he overcomes the taunts of the school bully. It’s the day before the summer holiday, which means Peter will soon be free from bullying for 6 whole weeks. He and his family venture to the Isle of Harris to a remote cottage by a small beach to spend their holiday. There, Peter finds himself strangely drawn to some rocks on the shore that look just like a dragon. He climbs them so that he can pretend he is flying and is shocked when the rocks melt away and a magnificent black dragon emerges and speaks to him! McDragon has been waiting for the arrival of ‘Petersmith’ because the dragon seer has foretold that ‘Petersmith’ will find what has been stolen from the dragons. Peter accepts the challenge to help save the dragons from extinction and despite feeling that he is not really up to the task – after all, the school bully has branded him a cripple for as long as he can remember – he encounters some amazing creatures while on his quest, enjoying the sights and sounds of the Isle of Harris with his family. McDragon is an exciting read involving fabulous dragons, a young bullied boy, scary and mystical creatures like gargoyles and wizards, and it is all based in the beautiful, magical Isle of Harris in the Outer Hebrides in Scotland. This book will appeal to children who enjoy fantasy novels, and specifically the work of Christopher Paolini.

EBOOK: An Intimate Loneliness

By: Gordon Riches,Pam Dawson

* What impact does a child's death have on family relationships? * How might differences in the way mothers and fathers deal with bereavement contribute to increased marital tension? * Why are bereaved siblings so deeply affected by the way their parents grieve? An Intimate Loneliness explores how family members attempt to come to terms with the death of an offspring or brother or sister. Drawing on relevant research and the authors' own experience of working with bereaved parents and siblings, this book examines the importance of social relationships in helping parents and siblings adjust to their bereavement. The chances of making sense of this most distressing loss are influenced by the resilience of the family's surviving relationships, by the availability of wider support networks and by the cultural resources that inform each's perception of death. This book considers the impact of bereavement on self and family identity. In particular, it examines the role of shared remembering in transforming survivors' relationships with the deceased, and in helping rebuild their own identity with a significantly changed family structure. Problems considered include: the failure of intimate relationships, cultural and gender expectations, the invisibility of fathers' and siblings' grief, sudden and 'difficult' deaths, lack of information, and the sense of isolation felt by some family members. This book will be of value to students on courses in counselling, health care, psychology, social policy, pastoral care and education. It will appeal to sociology students with an interest in death, dying and mortality. It is also aimed at professionally qualified counselling, health and social service workers, at informed voluntary group members, the clergy, teachers and others involved with pastoral care.

Eisenhower

The Public Relations President

Eisenhower

The Public Relations President

By: Pam Parry

In the 1950s, public relations practitioners tried to garner respectability for their fledgling profession, and one international figure helped in that endeavor. President Dwight D. Eisenhower embraced public relations as a necessary component of American democracy, advancing the profession at a key moment in its history. But he did more than believe in public relations—he practiced it. Eisenhower changed how America campaigns by leveraging television and Madison Avenue advertising. Once in the Oval Office, he maximized the potential of a new medium as the first U.S. president to seek training for television and to broadcast news conferences on television. Additionally, Eisenhower managed the news through his press office, molding the role of the modern presidential press secretary. The first president to adopt a policy of full disclosure on health issues, Eisenhower survived (politically as well as medically) three serious illnesses while in office. The Eisenhower Administration was the most forthcoming on the president’s health at the time, even though it did not always live up to its own policy. In short, Eisenhower deserves credit as this nation’s most innovative public relations president, because he revolutionized America’s political communication process, forever changing the president’s relationship with the Fourth Estate, Madison Avenue, public relations, and ultimately, the American people.
