Howver, Jen. Secret survivors : real-life stories to give you hope for healing.

A collection of eight true stories of people who have lived through painful experiences in their lives, but who have chosen to keep those experiences secret; and describes the importance of sharing those secrets with someone else in order to let the healing process begin.

Imagem
Mystery Stories.


 Including tales from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Agatha Christie, Ray Bradbury, and Joan Aiken, this collection of eighteen stories offers a marvelous sampling of the mystery genre from classic detective to humorous contemporary.

Imagem
Cummings, E. E. (Edward Estlin), 1894-1962. Xaipe [Chaire]. 1st ed.

Among many poems can be found "dying is fine)but Death," "so many selves(so many friends and gods," "when serpents bargain for the right to squirm," "no time ago," "I thank You God for most this amazing," and "now all the fingers of this tree(darling)have.".

Imagem
Domenici, Davide. The Maya : history and treasures of an ancient civilization.

This lavishly illustrated volume enables readers to chronologically trace the cultural development of Mesoamerica. From the imposing monumental sculptures of the Olmecs in 1500 BC to the extraordinary development of the Mayan city states of the classical period to the militaristic fervor of the kingdom of Chichen Itza to the conquest of the Mayans by the Spanish armies in the 1500s, The Mayas examines the social and cultural influences of each major period in ancient Mayan history.An insightful exploration of the significant characteristics of each society and the factors leading to the collapse of each is balanced by an examination of the social and cultural reorganization that followed each chapter in Mayan history. Accompanying the text, full-color photographs bring to life the art, architecture, religious rituals, and recreational activities of each society, creating a well-rounded portrait of a legendary era in world history.

Imagem
Baldacci, David. Wish you well.

The lives of twelve-year-old Lou and her younger brother, Oz, change forever in 1940 when an accident involving their parents results in their being uprooted from their New York City home and moved to live with their great-grandmother in the mountains of Virginia.

Imagem
Gonçalves, Marcos Augusto. 1922 : a semana que não terminou.

Em fevereiro de 1922, talentos como Di Cavalcanti, Mário e Oswald de Andrade, além de representantes da elite paulistana, armaram um festival de arte no Teatro Municipal de São Paulo. Com o passar dos anos, o festival transformou-se numa espécie de mito sobre a fundação da cultura moderna no Brasil. Mas o que foi mesmo que aconteceu? Noventa anos depois, Marcos Augusto Gonçalves refaz, nesta crônica saborosa e esclarecedora, os passos que culminaram naquela prestigiada semana.

Imagem
Alcântara, Rinaldo de. Aprenda a tocar violão sem complicação. 2a edição.

Aprender violão é fácil? Digamos que não é difícil... Como todo instrumento musical, é necessário disciplina e algum tempo diário de estudo, seja das técnicas próprias de cada instrumento, seja das composições que se deseja tocar. Ter esse 'tempinho' para estudar já é meio caminho andado. Este livro, um curso prático e voltado para iniciantes, pretende ser o restante do caminho. Por meio de exercícios e explicações 100% detalhadas, que você também pode acompanhar por meio do CD que vem com o livro, você aprenderá tudo que precisa saber sobre: Afinação; Postura; Escala Cromática; Células rítmicas para acompanhamento; Acordes básicos e Tensões; Cifras; Acordes avançados e Acordes com baixo.

Imagem
Vieira, Silvia, 1967-. O que é natação. 1a reimpressão.
]
O primeiro título da coleção 'O que é' faz uma incursão sobre os principais aspectos da natação. Além de textos explicativos e detalhados, a edição apresenta um resumo da história dos campeões, a moderna geração, os estilos de nado e os tipos de prova.

Imagem
Assis, Machado de, 1839-1908. A causa secreta.

Um dos contos mais brilhantes de Machado de Assis é "A Causa Secreta", uma crítica mordaz à caridade hipócrita e uma observação profunda sobre o lado obscuro dos sentimentos humanos. Fantástico e fantasmagórico, a Causa Secreta é, talvez, a mais instigante obra de um dos maiores escritores da língua portuguesa.

Imagem
Holanda, Sérgio Buarque de, 1902-1982. Capítulos de história do Império.
Parte I: Para uma pré-história do Império do Brasil : A nação e os partidos : Entre a Liga e o Progresso : Por graça de Deus... -- Parte II : Crise do regime -- Parte III : Capítulo I : Capítulo II : Notas -- Apêndices -- Posfácio - Evaldo Cabral de Mello -- Cronologia -- Índice remissivo. 'Capítulos de história do Império' é composto por quatro partes, em que Sérgio Buarque de Holanda analisa a crise do Império brasileiro no final do século XIX, compreendendo-a como produto da falência do mecanismo de sustentação deste regime - o poder pessoal do imperador.

Imagem
Dumas, Alexandre, 1802-1870. Os três mosqueteiros.


 O jovem d'Artagnan chega praticamente sem posses a Paris, mas, depois de alguns percalços, consegue se aproximar da guarda de elite do rei Luis XIII - os mosqueteiros. Nela conhece os inseparáveis Athos, Porthos e Aramis, que passarão a ser seus companheiros de aventuras. Juntos, os quatro enfrentam combates e perigos a serviço do rei e sobretudo da rainha, Ana da Áustria, tendo por inimigos principais o cardeal de Richelieu, a misteriosa Milady e o ousado duque de Buckingham.

Imagem
Verne, Jules, 1828-1905. Voyage au centre de la terre. 20.000 léguas submarinas.


 Jules Verne alia pesquisa cintiífica com sua prodigiosa e fértil imaginação para tecer todos os “fios” desta história. Personagens como Capitão Nemo, fanaticamente buscando vingança; professor Aronnax, em busca de conhecimentos e Ned, o arpoador canadense, um caçador de aventuras, se contrapõem com a maldade de ser humano. No Nautilius, submarino prodigioso, todos os personagens vivem uma aventura indescritível, rica e emocionante. No final, somos obrigados a perguntar:"Quem tinha razão?".

Imagem
Wilde, Oscar, 1854-1900. O retrato de Dorian Gray.


Dorian é uma criatura de beleza única, contudo sua natureza íntima é continuamente corrompida pela busca dos prazeres mundanos. O retrato de Dorian, pintado pelo artista Basil Hallward, incorpora sua verdadeira natureza. Assim, Oscar Wilde consegue criticar a decadente sociedade inglesa, na qual as aparências refinadas guardam um universo de intrigas, traições e falsidades.

Imagem
Page, Linda McNatt, 1953-. Quiet moments for teachers.

How does this book meet the need? Experienced special education teacher Linda Page has assembled a collection of short-reads that will lift a teacher's heart and bring her or him a few moments' peace.
