- Conflict Resolution Between Me and You
148,95 kr. A young girl is so scared by a pack of dogs that she doesn't leave the house for three years. Her father, in desperation, makes her a pretty blue bean shooter and that gives her the confidence to save the family and the town. A hundred years later, a 9th grade girl reads her story and decides that the only way to save her school is to get rid of all the bad boys. Because without fear, creativity flourishes. This is a story about two girls from another school that want to know the secret. They want to know about the Ants, and about the Queen, and especially about the BEAN WAR. A must read for everyone that thinks that high schools should be more than just a place to warehouse teenagers. And it's about conflict resolution. And how girls are much better at it than boys.

248,95 kr. It all began when a tree demolished a doghouse during a windstorm, revealing something momentous. Initially, Steven and John thought it was a relic from a distant past, to be examined carefully, then filed away and forgotten. But that didn't happen, and chains from the past soon begin to rattle. There's truth in the statement that the past is never dead. The veil concealing the greed and excesses of logging in the nineteenth century begins to lift. One death is soon followed by others, and it quickly becomes evident that family secrets, thought to be long dead and buried, are alive and displaying robust and malicious health. Through it all, a lifelong friendship and an almost mystical connection to an old forest help lay to rest a tumultuous past and find a new way forward.

288,95 kr. Richard Gould anticipait avec plaisir sa retraite à passer au moins une partie de son temps dans la maison ancestrale qu'il avait rénovée dans un village tranquille de l'Ontario et plus particulièrement à son projet principal : rendre ses lettres de noblesse aux ruines d'un moulin situé au bord d'une rivière.La découverte de deux vieux livres cachés dans les décombres allait donner du piquant à ce projet jusqu'à ce qu'il se produise une série d'événements d'abord bizarres, puis lugubres et bientôt mortels. Inexorablement, Richard est entraîné plus profondément dans une histoire dangereuse culminant en une rencontre meurtrière près de la ville historique de Heidelberg.
