![]() ![]() The veracity of this understanding of LBJ seems to have stood the test of time. Whether or not the reader appreciates this is out of her control. She wanted to understand the man, not just the historical leader, and the main lens she had to offer was an understanding of his childhood. Much of that stems from her unfettered access to Johnson after his presidency. Readers are often struck by the psychoanalytic parts of this book. This book put Kearns Goodwin on the map as an articulate biographer and won her a Pulitzer Prize. Yet he led the nation down a horrific course in Vietnam and seemed to disregard basic facts and popular sentiment – to his and the nation’s detriment. He had an unparalleled genius for administrative leadership in the Senate and Oval Office. Pragmatically, he attempted to build a nation based on equal opportunity through the Great Society. He changed America permanently through the Civil Rights Acts of 1964-5. He reached the heights of politics through an assassination. ![]() Former US President Lyndon Johnson is one of the more difficult to understand presidents. ![]() Ugly love summary6/27/2023 ![]() ![]() My eyes narrow as I process his question. He grunts as he sinks into the chair and then looks up at me again. ![]() He takes a few slow steps toward one of two velvet red chairs that are positioned against the wall next to the elevator. ![]() His curved posture and shaky stance give away that he isn’t a day less than eighty years old. Despite his somewhat morbid opening conversation, he can’t be that dangerous. I smile, but I can’t tell if I should be afraid or entertained. “My grandfather used to say the placement of a birthmark was the story of how a person lost the battle in their past life. My hand instinctively goes up to my neck, and I touch the dime-sized mark just below my ear. He presses the up button on the elevator and faces me. My eyes widen, and I slowly turn toward the elderly gentleman standing at my side. “Somebody stabbed you in the neck, young lady.” ![]() Until We Win by Linda Newbery6/26/2023 ![]() ![]() Travers book, where Mrs Banks is introduced, returning exhilarated from suffragette action, and singing the song ‘Sister Suffragette’ sweepingly encompassing her cook, maid and outgoing nanny within the ‘sisterhood’. My first awareness of the women’s suffrage movement came from the sequence in the Disney film Mary Poppins (1964), which does not appear in P.L. ![]() Do writers focus only on the militant actions of the suffragettes or are readers also made aware of the less dramatic actions of the suffragists? Do any patterns emerge in the type of fictional characters developed, in particular friendships between women from privileged backgrounds and working-class women? They include books by Marjorie Darke, Julie Hearn, Geraldine Symons, Geoffrey Trease and Jacqueline Wilson, and it’s interesting to see what picture they give of this significant period in British women’s history. The women’s suffrage movement has been the focus of several children’s novels published during the last 40 years. ![]() Ramona quimby and henry huggins6/26/2023 ![]() ![]() She was named a Living Legend in 2000 by the Library of Congress.

It “came about because two different boys from different parts of the country asked me to write a book about a boy whose parents were divorced,” she told National Public Radio as she neared her 90th birthday. Henshaw,” the touching story of a lonely boy who corresponds with a children’s book author, won the 1984 John Newbery Medal for the most distinguished contribution to American literature for children. So when I sat down to write, I found myself writing about the sort of children I had grown up with,” Cleary said in a 1993 Associated Press interview. “As a librarian, children were always asking for books about `kids like us.′ Well, there weren’t any books about kids like them. Actress Amy Poehler penned the front section of “Ramona Quimby, Age 8 ” author Kate DiCamillo wrote the opening for “The Mouse and the Motorcycle ” and author Judy Blume wrote the foreword for “Henry Huggins.”Ĭleary, a self-described “fuddy-duddy,” said there was a simple reason she began writing children’s books. ![]() A wild patience has taken me this far6/26/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() These two directional power movements help explain, contra his challengers, the consistency of Yoder’s pacifism, free church ecclesiology, and ecumenism. ![]() For Yoder, theology is a grammar that seeks to describe and differentiate between two “directional” power movements: repentance of (turning away from) Constantinian, worldly powers, and submission to (yielding and turning towards) Jesus’s service Lordship. Assuming a plurivocal model of power when reading Yoder helps us to understand his project on its own terms. Yoder must be read in light of this logic because he builds a cosmological model and corresponding theological grammar on the conviction that “power” is best described plurivocally, rather than univocally. ![]() Responses to these challenges have not addressed the logic that undergirds them, a logic concluding that Yoder's free church ecclesiology requires the correction of Hauerwas's "high church Mennonitism." The core of Yoder’s free church ecclesiological framework is what I describe as the logic of Jesus’s service power. John Yoder's ecclesiology has received a host of challenges, all of which focus on various facets of its free church nature and praxis. ![]() The bodyguard a novel katherine center6/26/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() But protecting her own, long-neglected heart?
