In The Easter Lamb, the traditional Easter story takes on new significance as Jesus’s death and resurrection are explored through the events of Passover. Through child-friendly text and engaging illustrations that meaningfully connect these two important events, young readers will see how God has always cared for his children and that he had a plan for our salvation from the start.On the night he was arrested, Jesus celebrated Passover with his disciples during what we now call the Last Supper. Jesus knew he would soon have to die like the lambs who were sacrificed in place of the firstborn Israelites so that all of God’s children might live.John Greco masterfully tells these two stories—Passover and Easter—in The Easter Lamb, weaving together their biblical symbolism and significance. You may have heard the Easter story before, but this unique take will deepen you and your child’s understanding of the holiday and explain how important the image of Christ as a lamb truly is.The Easter Lamb is ideal for: Introducing children 4 and up to the Passover and Easter stories Sharing together as a family as a read-aloud or as part of a new Easter tradition Helping young children better understand the Bible and how God’s redemptive plan connects throughout ScriptureEaster Sunday school lessons, family devotions, and gift giving

The definitive introduction to the work of the bravest of us . . . the universal poet (Alice Walker)For the poet and activist June Jordan, neither poetry nor activism could easily be disentangled from the other. Her storied career came to chronicle a living, breathing history of the struggles that defined the USA in the latter half of the twentieth century; and her poetry, accordingly, put its dazzling stylistic range to use in exploring issues of gender, race, immigration, representation and much else besides.Here, above all, are sinuous, lashing and passionate lines, virtuosic in their musicality and always bearing the stamp of Jordan s irrepressible personality. Here are poems of suffusing light and profound anger: poems moved as much by political animus as by a deep love for the observation of human life in all its foibles, eccentricities, strengths and weaknesses.With a foreword by Pulitzer Prize winner Jericho Brown, The Essential June Jordan allows new readers to discover - and old fans to rediscover - the vital work of this endlessly surprising poet who, in the words of Adrienne Rich, believed that genuine, up-from-the-bottom revolution must include art, laughter, sensual pleasure, and the widest possible human referentiality.

On 3 July 1944, a train of cattle wagons set out from Toulouse, heading for Germany. Crammed inside eventually were 724 souls of various nationalities and backgrounds, all of whom the German occupiers had held captive in concentration camps and prisons across south-western France. Among them was Francesco Fausto Nitti, an Italian antifascist activist who had survived Mussoliniâ ™s gaols and the Spanish Civil War. The journey to Dachau was expected to take three days. Instead â “ bombed, re-routed and often immobilised â “ it lasted for two months, making it the longest of all deportation journeys out of France during the Second World War. Nitti kept a daily log of the odyssey of the Phantom Train, as it has become known, and the document was in his pocket when, on 25 August, he and some fellow captives made a perilous last-minute escape by removing some of their wagonâ ™s floorboards and lowering themselves onto the track as the train sped through the night. Once back with his family and the Resistance, Nitti turned his log into a book, which was published at the end of 1944 by a small press run by a Resistance member. Now, with this first English translation of The Phantom Train and an extended introduction, a whole new readership can learn about that never-ending journey to Dachau and everything that led up to it, and marvel at the determination and endurance of some courageous people, notably the remarkable Francesco Fausto Nitti.

C. G. JungÂ’s The Red Book: Liber Novus, published posthumously in 2009, explores JungÂ’s own journey from an inner state of alienation and depression to the restoration of his soul, as well as offering a prophetic narrative of the collective human psyche as it journeys from unconsciousness to a greater awareness of its own inner dichotomy of good and evil. Jung utilised astrological symbols throughout to help him comprehend the personal as well as universal meanings of his visions.In The Astrological World of JungÂ’s Liber Novus, Liz Greene explores the planetary journey Jung portrayed in this remarkable work and investigates the ways in which he used astrological images and themes as an interpretive lens to help him understand the nature of his visions and the deeper psychological meaning behind them. GreeneÂ’s analysis includes a number of mythic and archetypal elements, including the stories of Salome, Siegfried and Elijah, and demonstrates that astrology, as Jung understood and worked with it, is unquestionably one of the most important foundation stones of analytical psychology, and an essential part of understanding his legacy.This unique study will appeal to analytical psychologists and Jungian psychotherapists, students and academics of Jungian and post-Jungian theory, the history of psychology, archetypal thought, mythology and folklore, the history of New Age movements, esotericism and psychological astrology.

This inventive colour picture book uses the metaphor of a train to teach basic conventions of conversation to children with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). Engines are like greetings; they get the train going. Freight wagons are like different speakers turns; it is good to have at least a few when you are in conversation. A set of points guiding a train from one track to another is like a tactful change in the topic of conversation. When a conversation veers off-topic it is like a derailed train. As well as attractive colour photographs of trains, the book contains engaging photocopiable worksheets and colouring pages to help promote skill generalisation. This highly visual approach to conversation is ideally suited to children with ASDs aged approximately 5-13.

Clapham was a pivotal point in British railway history. Much technology had been invented and applied to accident prevention by 1988; much more was to come. The Clapham Train Accident considers Clapham in its wider context, using official reports and expert interviews to describe both the causes and the terrible effects. It looks beyond the railway to the external factors acting not only on British Rail, but also the government of the time, and considers the safety improvements that came about as a result.Finally, the book brings the story up to date and looks at why the lessons learned over thirty years ago still need to be retained in an industry where the baton of safety is all-too-easily dropped during re-organisation, re-branding and after the departure of those who lived through darker days to make ours shine more brightly.The concatenation of events, the errors, the reorganisations, the financial constraints, that led to Clapham could happen to any business in any industry. On the morning of 12 December 1988, they happened to the railway.The Clapham Train Accident will act as a cautionary tale for safety practitioners old and new, not just in rail, but also other safety critical industries. It will help readers think actions through to all consequences, helping them too to make safer decisions, particularly when changing a system, technology or method of working

The pure white flowers are a symbol of the resurrection of Christ and his purity. In the Vatican, these flowers typically decorate the altar on Easter Sunday, adding to the solemnity of the occasion. Additionally, the shape of the Easter Lily is thought to resemble a trumpet, which is significant because in biblical times, trumpets were used to announce important events and declarations. Overall, the Easter Lily has come to represent the hope and renewal that Easter brings and is a fitting symbol for one of the holiest days in the Christian calendar.

This is a fresh examination of the â ˜intelligenceâ ™ gathered for the great train robbery. The suggestion of an Irishman (â ˜The Ulstermanâ ™) was simply part of a package created by the robbers in time for their release from prison and to contribute to the subsequent book â “ everything since has compounded the â ˜mysteryâ ™. Gordon Goody was one robber who â ˜metâ ™ The Ulsterman and speaks highly of The Ulstermanâ ™s information, but this information could easily be found elsewhere, and some of it is incorrect. So who else might have given â ˜intelligenceâ ™? One by one, other â ˜suspectsâ ™ are identified and discounted, but with evidence for their defence. To use the metaphor â ˜hidden in plain sightâ ™, one can identify another â ˜suspectâ ™ with all the attributes The Ulsterman was said to have. If the reader is willing to look at the evidence afresh, itâ ™s necessary to consider not what the robbers et al have said, rather what they havenâ ™t said. The robbers were dishonest men who frequently lied â “ but writers and commentators have followed what they have said. And it hasnâ ™t really led anywhere. To unravel the yarn presented, it wasnâ ™t a senior official in either the Post Office or British Rail. It was an â ˜ordinary thiefâ ™ with an extraordinary ability to blend into the background, and have fingers in a great many pies. Letâ ™s expound the myth.
