Martin-Pêcheur de Manille : ein Tropenfarben-Glanz Der Martin-Pêcheur von Manila, mit seinem leuchtenden Gefieder und den lebendigen Nuancen, zieht sofort alle Blicke auf sich. Diese kunstdruck hebt die detaillierten Feinheiten des Gefieders hervor, das von tiefblau bis hin zu strahlendem Gelb reicht, und schafft eine visuelle Harmonie, die die Fülle der Natur widerspiegelt. Die von John Gould verwendete Lithographietechnik ermöglicht es, jede Feder mit bemerkenswerter Präzision einzufangen und gleichzeitig eine lebendige und dynamische Atmosphäre zu vermitteln. Dieses Gemälde lädt zu einer Betrachtung der ornithologischen Wunder ein und offenbart die Schönheit exotischer Arten, die die Ufer der philippinischen Flüsse bevölkern. John Gould : der Naturforscher der ornithologischen Wunder John Gould, berühmter britischer Ornithologe und Illustrator des 19. Jahrhunderts, widmete sein Leben der Erforschung und Darstellung von Vögeln. Beeinflusst vom naturalistischen Bewegung seiner Zeit, reiste er um die Welt, um die Vielfalt der Vogelwelt zu dokumentieren. Seine Werke, darunter der Martin-Pêcheur von Manila, zeugen von seinem Engagement für Wissenschaft und Kunst. Gould veröffentlichte mehrere bedeutende Werke und wurde zu einer unverzichtbaren Referenz im Bereich der Ornithologie. Seine Arbeit bereicherte nicht nur das wissenschaftliche Wissen, sondern inspirierte auch zahlreiche Künstler und Naturforscher über Generationen hinweg. Eine dekorative Anschaffung mit vielfältigen Vorzügen Der kunstdruck des Martin-Pêcheur de Manila ist ein dekoratives Stück, das jeden Raum aufwerten kann, sei es im Wohnzimmer, im Büro oder im Schlafzimmer. Seine Druckqualität und die Treue zu den Originalfarben machen dieses Leinwandbild zur idealen Wahl für Kunst- und Naturliebhaber. Neben seiner ästhetischen Anziehungskraft vermittelt dieses Werk ein Gefühl von Flucht und Verbindung zur Biodiversität. An einer Wand aufgehängt, wird es zum echten Blickfang, der Neugier und Bewunderung bei Ihren Gästen weckt und gleichzeitig einen Hauch Frische und Vitalität in Ihre Dekoration bringt.Shipping Notes

Illuminating insights on the transformative power of college
Format: Hardcover
Mindset Matters is an inspiring, timely, and useful exploration of how higher education can transform lives by fostering the key mindsets essential for success in today’s complex and fast-changing world.
Drawing on his extensive experience as a leader in higher education and lifelong learning, Porterfield makes a compelling case for cultivating five critical mindsets — Discovery, Creation, Mentorship, Collaboration, and Striving — all aligned with a growth mindset. He explains how colleges can develop these mindsets to prepare students for lifelong growth.
The book is grounded in real stories of students whose lives were transformed by higher education. The thoughtful narratives illustrate how institutions can create environments and systems where all students can thrive.
Through this work, Porterfield offers a roadmap for helping prepare individuals to embrace growth, pursue opportunities, navigate challenges, and drive meaningful impact — throughout their lives.
Whether you're an educator, a parent, or someone interested in the future of higher education, Mindset Matters will leave you inspired and equipped with new perspectives and strategies. I highly recommend it.

Disappointing
Format: Hardcover
I had high hopes. But this book seems to be more of a rosy retrospective of one college president years in charge than it is a real useful book about how to help students.

Reminds us of the value of a college education beyond academic facts and skills.
Format: Kindle
At a time when many students and families are questioning the value of a 4-year college education, Porterfield does a great job of describing the intangibles behind an earned degree. Many people are aware that there is more to a college education than academic facts and skills, but this book presents the case comprehensively. It identifies "soft skills" specifically and gives good examples of how they can be taught and learned in the college environment.

Loved it!
Format: Kindle
Mia is a ten-year-old Chinese immigrant. She had immigrated to California from China 2 years earlier with her parents, who were hoping for a better life. Unfortunately, the United States in the 1990s was not exactly welcoming to Chinese immigrants, and many struggled. Mia and her parents were no different. After gaining and losing several jobs and facing homelessness again, Mia's parents take a job managing a motel. Unfortunately, the motel owner - who is Taiwanese, not Chinese, as he is quick to point out - is not only overtly racist, he is also exploitive and seems almost happy to point out to Mia's parents that they could be replaced immediately when they question his actions.
But Mia and her parents try to make the best of it. Mia works the front desk when at the motel, quickly learning the ropes and consistently trying to find ways to help the guests and her family. She also becomes friends with the weeklies at the motel - those guests who live at the motel and pay weekly - and they quickly become part of her growing family.
At school, though, Mia struggles. She can't tell the other students - most of whom are white - that she lives in a motel. She struggles in English, though she loves writing, and she also has disagreements with her mother who thinks she should focus on math and forget about writing because "she'll never be able to write as well as the white kids" for whom English is their native language.
Most of the book is a slice-of-life look at running a hotel and Mia's struggle to integrate with the other students at school. Though it may seem to some that too much goes wrong at the motel in too short a period of time, I can say from experience that this depiction is incredibly realistic. While reading it, I was having flashbacks to my own experience managing a motel and running the front desk. The news Mia and her family get in chapter 55, in particular, hit hard on the feels for me, because my husband and I went through that same situation. We didn't use the same solution that Mia and her family did, and I definitely loved the solution they came up with.
Throughout the story were the letters that Mia wrote, each for a different situation. These were an added touch, helping to bring the reader back to the days of the early and mid-90s, before email was ubiquitous and text messaging was still a dream. Her struggle to put word to paper, to make sure she was using the right words and tenses, was an added dimension to the story that I didn't expect but definitely appreciated. The author's note at the end, where she discussed her own experiences was also incredibly moving, and I loved learning that much of the book's scenarios were pulled from her own experiences, while also wanting to give a hug to the child that had to experience that struggle.
I had the opportunity to listen to the audiobook, narrated by Sunny Lu, and I highly recommend it. Lu did a wonderful job with the narration, injecting just the right amount of emotion and tension into the performance. I had to force myself to stop listening so I could go to bed; had I not, I would have listened right through to the end and not getting any sleep. While I would have enjoyed the story, work the next day would not have been fun. Lol.
So, long review short, I definitely recommend this book. For younger readers, I would recommend a parent read with them, as there are some tough situations that they may need/want to talk about. But overall, this is a story of hope for an immigrant family who is struggling to make a better life for themselves.
