When Alija Osmanovic, a Bosnian war orphan who is the protagonist of Knife, goes in search of the identity of his murdered birth-parents, a sense of thwarted justice motivates him, and expresses itself as burning passion for revenge. This is summed up by the novel's title. The opening chapter describes the massacre of a Serbian village by Muslim Ustase on Christmas Day (January 7) of 1942. The sole survivor is a newborn male infant, spared at the last moment and given to a Muslim woman who lost her husband in the raid. The boy is named Alija, and is raised as a Muslim, and later comes to believe that his family was killed by Serbs. Twenty-one years later, Alija, now a medical student in Sarajevo, discovers that the newspapers are interested in his story. An article about him is published in a Sarajevo daily, and he begins receiving mail. Most of it is sympathetic but unhelpful, although he does receive an enigmatic letter which reads: You are certainly not what you are, nevertheless, you are what you are not. Alija seeks out Sikter Effendi, an eccentric and reclusive Muslim cleric, to help him interpret the enigma. Sikter Effendi, an irascible outsider, is, nevertheless, considered to be honest, because he has suffered at the hands of each regime: Ustase as well as Communist. He has responded by developing a fine sense of disgust for the human race, and he steeps himself in history, trying to untangle the threads of misfortune. But when Alija enters the Effendi s life, a transformation occurs. Sikter Effendi finds a spiritual heir. Through Sikter Effendi s mentorship, Alija discovers the truth: that his heritage is Serbian; that he was born not far away but in the neighboring village; and that his adoptive family was guilty of murdering his birth-family. A crisis of identity ensues. Each possible course of action open to him is bad. How is he to go on? Minimize

These days, the daily flight from Moscow to New York City carries a few American families with Russian children--all with pasty complexions and brand new, ill fitting American clothing. Russian law allows foreign nationals to adopt Russian orphans. But there is a catch: only children with birth defects and incurable medical conditions can be adopted. In some cases, the problems are minor and readily treatable, but some children are diagnosed with vague ailments, developmental delays that are hard to quantify, though they do make the children available for adoption. Does the child truly have a problem, or are such developmental delays usual for a child raised in an orphanage? Perhaps the diagnosis is a well-intentioned lie, in hopes that the child will have a far better life in the US than an orphan's fate in today's Russia? Or maybe it is a callous device used by local officials to keep the lucrative adoption business going? Four-year-old Olya has lived in a Children's Home all her life. We learn that she was an 'unplanned' child, and that she was placed in the Home at birth. Born prematurely, Olya has been diagnosed with a vague developmental disability. We watch her playing with the other children and meet her favorite caregiver, whom she calls 'Grandma.' Though little Olya has no idea of the changes ahead, the adults around her are both happy and fearful. 'We've never had a child go so far away,' says one caregiver. She turns to a group of children, tears streaming down her cheeks, 'I'm crying from joy, children, I'm glad, really.' Olya's new parents Sam and Meredith arrive, excited and exhausted. Chelyabinsk is a remote place, and the two Californians stand out in their bright T-shirts and shorts. Olya is shy of these strange adults, and even a pretty new dress can't quite draw her out. The adoption goes as planned, and we learn about the process: the donation made to the orphanage seems to end up in the pockets of local officials, and Sam and Meredith are sternly told that Olya's original birth certificate will be destroyed. A new birth certificate is issued, and Sam and Meredith laugh: according to the document, they had a baby in Chelyabinsk four years ago. The day comes for Olya to leave with her new family, and Sam, all but crying himself, carries a tearful Olya out to a waiting car. Her playmates and caregivers wave good-bye from the windows of the Children's Home. A year later, we visit Olya's birthday party in California. Does she have a developmental disability? Her mom thinks not: 'Most of the time these kids are given labels just to get them out of the country.' Olya's dad agrees: 'She was just a shy, quiet child. And I thought, 'Gee, we'd love to have a quiet child.' So we got another one that loves to talk!' Minimize

How can a fairy'sblessing be such a curse?At her birth, Ella of Frell was the unfortunate recipient of a foolish fairy's gift--the "gift' of obedience. Ella must obey any order given to her, whether it's hopping on one foot for a day and a half, or chopping off her own head! But strong-willed Ella does not tamely accept her fate. Against a bold backdrop of princes, ogres, giants, wicked stepsisters, and fairy godmothers, Ella goes on a quest to break the curse--once and for all. In this incredible debut novel comes the richly entertaining story of Ella of Frell, who at birth was given the gift of obedience by a fairy. Ella soon realizes that this gift is little better than a curse, for how can she truly be herself if at anytime anyone can order her to hop on one foot, or cut off her hand, or betray her kingdom'and she'll have to obey? Against a bold tapestry of princes, ogres, giants, wicked stepsisters, and fairy godmothers, Ella's quest to break the curse once and for all and discover who she really is is as sharply funny as Catherine, Called Birdy and as richly poignant as Beauty, and has all the marks of a classic in the making. 00 Rebecca Caudill Young Reader's Book Award, 99-00 Black-Eyed Susan Award (Gr 6-9 Cat), 00 CA Young Reader Medal (Mid.

Now subtitled in 9 languages: Dutch, English, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Polish, Spanish. This award winning documentary film about babies is being shown across the nation in movie theaters, parenting and birthing classes, and small group gatherings everywhere. What Babies Want is a heart-opening film that brings together ground-breaking information about who babies truly are, what they know, and how we can support them to be their best as they develop and grow. The film is alive with captivating stories and remarkable personal experiences of infants, children and adults. It is warmly narrated by Noah Wyle who, with his wife Tracy, shares with us their passion for the well being of children. Research is now showing us that our society is a product of how we welcome and raise our children. When babies are welcomed with love and warmth and given the immediate opportunity to bond with parents, they develop minds that are coherent and flexible, ready in turn to make compassionate and meaningful connections with others as they grow. As we learn how early relationships shape the structure and function of the brain, we are also gaining a new appreciation of the wisdom of ancient cultures that understood the importance of welcoming children before, during and after the moment of birth.

My birth date of October 23, 1931, had a significant influence in allowing me life experiences as described in this book. If I had been born the year after my parent s marriage in 1923, I would have been seventeen years old at the start of World War II and undoubtedly would have been involved in this conflict. After I enrolled in college in 1949, the Korean War started. By attending college I got a draft deferment until graduation in June, 1953. By then an armistice agreement had been signed with North Korea. I fulfilled my military service by volunteering for the draft and completed my tour of duty in the United States instead of Korea. By the time the Vietnam war reached maximum escalation, I was thirty-seven years old, married with a family. Undoubtedly there are many men who share the same coincidence of birth date as mine and thereby avoided war. Also, being the son of Swedish immigrants is a circumstance that I am sure is shared by the offspring of many immigrant children. My parents provided me with all the opportunities a child could ask for and I believe I capitalized on this upbringing. Health, luck, family and my continuing interest in economics, business, government, politics, athletics, music and travel have all influenced what I have done in my life and what I have written on these pages and what I aspire to still do in the future. The fact that I wrote down these memoirs I owe to my wife, Peggy. She encouraged me to do so because she felt that these experiences were unique and that our children, friends and others would enjoy reading about them. Minimize

New book feeds youngsters’ curiosity about how their parents prepared for their arrival. This heartwarming narrative with African American characters and spiritual connections gives in-depth and comprehensive insight into the minds and hearts of soon-to-be-parents, leading up to the birth of their child. It also contains answers to questions that children typically ask once they are old enough to understand they were once inside “mommy’s tummy.” Before You Arrived is the brainchild of Adrienne Lance Lucas, the mother of a 6 and a half-year-old son. By the time her son was five, Lucas was answering countless questions like, “Mommy, what was it like when I was in your belly?” Eventually, Lance Lucas felt compelled to answer these questions and more in a book written to share her experiences as an expectant mother with her own son and other children. Before You Arrived is written from a mother’s perspective, as she addresses her unborn child. She anxiously awaited his or her birth, telling them that mommy and daddy dreamed and prayed about their life before they were born. Before You Arrived is a great 24 page family bedtime story for children ages 4 to 7.

Early readers will enjoy the rhythmic pace and lyrical repetition of the text which contributes to building their confidence as they read. The book’s lavish and elaborate images of African American characters are drawings adapted from Lance Lucas’s own personal collection of family photos and are interpreted by illustrator Tracy McCutchion. Lucas has created an imaginative and touching account, conveying an age-old message that both expectant parents can relate and children can learn. Now little ones can see how they were loved and cared for before they were even born. Minimize

In 1805, Jean Jacques Audubon was a twenty-year-old itinerant Frenchman of ignoble birth and indifferent education who had fled revolutionary violence in Haiti and then France to take refuge in frontier America. Ten years later, John James Audubon was an American citizen, entrepreneur, and family man whose fervent desire to “become acquainted with nature” had led him to reinvent himself as a naturalist and artist whose study of birds would soon earn him international acclaim. The drawings he made during this crucial decade—sold to Audubon’s friend and patron Edward Harris to help fund his masterwork The Birds of America, and now held by the Houghton Library and the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard University—are published together here for the first time in large format and full color. In these 116 portraits of species collected in America and in Europe we see Audubon inventing his ingenious methods of posing and depicting his subjects, and we trace his development into a scientist and an artist who could proudly sign his artworks “drawn from Nature.” The drawings also serve as a record of the birds found in Europe and the Eastern United States in the early nineteenth century, some now rare or extinct. The drawings are enhanced by an essay on the sources of Audubon’s art by his biographer, Richard Rhodes; transcription of Audubon’s own annotations to the drawings, including information on when and where the specimens were collected; ornithological commentary by Scott V. Edwards, along with reflections on Audubon as scientist; and an account of the history of the Harris collection by Leslie A. Morris. Splendid in their own right, these drawings also illuminate the self-invention of one of the most important figures in American natural history. They will delight all those interested in American art, nature, birds, and the life and times of John James Audubon. (20080901) Minimize

In his "Lives of the Artists", Vasari wrote: "While we may term other works paintings, those of Raphael are living things, the flesh palpitates, the breath comes and goes, every organ lives, life pulsates everywhere." In this extensively illustrated book featuring some 300 illustrations, the author takes a critical look at the life and work of Rafaello Sanzio, or as he signed certain paintings, Raphael Urbinas, in homage to his native city of Urbino. Described as "an artist touched by grace," he is considered, along with Michelangelo and Leonardo, to be one of the greatest painters of the Italian Renaissance. Raphael (1483-1520), whose birth and death were on a Good Friday, belonged to a family of merchants; aside from his training in the studio of Perugino, little is known about his earliest years. He arrived in Florence in 1504, where he studied the masters and produced magnificent paintings of the Madonna, as well as remarkable portraits. In 1508 he went to Rome, where he died a dozen years later at the height of his powers, after creating monumental works at the Vatican. De Vecchi re-examines the scholarship surrounding each of the major periods of Raphael's short career, dispelling the myths about him that have accumulated over the centuries. He reminds us that the most "profound" element of Raphael's art was his striving to express the dialectic between earthly and heavenly love, an important concern of his contemporaries. The coverage of the text extends beyond the paintings to Raphael's significant work as an architect and designer of interiors. Minimize

When he was born, Michelangelo Buonarroti was put into the care of a stonecutter's family. He often said it was from them that he got his love of sculpture. It certainly didn't come from his own father, a respectable magistrate who beat his son when he asked to become an artists apprentice.But Michelangelo persevered. His early sculptures caught the attention of Florence's great ruler, Lorenzo de' Medici, who invited the boy to be educated with his own sons. Soon after, Michelangelo was astonishing people with the lifelike creations he wrested from marble--from the heartbreaking Pieta he sculpted when he was only twenty-five to the majestic David that brought him acclaim as the greatest sculptor in Italy.Michelangelo had a turbulent, quarrelsome life. He was obsessed with perfection and felt that everyone--from family members to his demanding patrons--took advantage and let him down. His long and difficult association with Pope Julius II yielded his greatest masterpiece, the radiant paintings in the Sistine Chapel, and his most disastrous undertaking, the monumental tomb that caused the artist frustration and heartache for forty years.With her thoroughly researched, lively narrative and superbly detailed illustrations, Diane Stanley has captured the life of an artist who towered above the late Renaissance--and whose brilliance in architecture, painting, and sculpture amazes and moves us to this day.Children's Books 2000-NY Public Lib., Books for Youth Editor's Choice 2000 (Booklist), Lasting Connections 2000 (Book Links), Best Books 2000 (School Library Journal), Top 10 Youth Art Books 2000 (Booklist), and Notable Children's Trade Books in the Field of Social Studies 2001, National Council for SS & Child.

Filmed in Moscow, Chelyabinsk, and California, this documentary is about several children in Russian orphanages who are being adopted by American couples. Some have minor birth defects that prompted their mothers to place them in the orphanage, others were 'unplanned.' We meet the children in Moscow and Chelyabinsk orphanages and learn their stories. They are just past the toddler stage, and growing up without parents to call their own. We learn about Russian attitudes toward adoption, the orphanage system, and how these children come to be adopted by Americans. Orphanage caregivers, doctors, adoptive parents, adoption agents and others tell their stories. 'We try to place those children with foreign families,' says one adoption official. 'I'd rather see these children stay in Russia... Even though in my heart I know that they'll be happier over there. Their future in this country is quite bleak,' says an orphange caregiver.'
