"Do you want to practice your kids to get out of the comfort zone and allow them to think so that it creaks? (and allow them to think hard!) Do you want to give them the opportunity to doubt and practice listening and being curious about a statement other than their own?

If so, then this parenting edition is a really good book that is both easy and educational for you as a parent. You are supported, through the explanation of what "The Learning Pit" is and get a myriad of methods and ideas for how you can challenge your children's thinking.

The book gives you the opportunity to strengthen your children's imagination and philosophical thoughts when you around the dinner table, for example, talking about what joy is. 　For when do you know you are happy? How do you know that other people are happy? Do we all understand joy in the same way - and who decides what joy is?

12 different themes; you choose where you want to start - Being in The Pit strengthens your child's ability to be curious, determined and enduring.
And all children need to practice that. And adults too, for that matter." - Lene Maagoee, District Manager, Glasaxe

"As both an educator and a parent, this book is an incredible resource for connecting parents and educators to encourage children's growth as learners. The resources in the text do not require fancy preparation. Instead, parents are given strategies and simple tools to further engage their children in the world around them and well beyond. Children have natural curiosity and with these concepts, parents can encourage those curiosities to develop　children as critical thinkers, hard workers, and persistent thinkers. Most of all, their natural curiosities are encouraged and developed. I am more confident as a parent and an educator after reading and using this text. The organization of the text allows for meaningful engagement that is not staged or artificial. Rather, these concepts work at the dinner table, in the car, during quiet time, and playing outside.　

The Three Little Pigs activities engaged our entire family for a period of several　weeks. We read different versions of the tale, compared and contrasted, asked meaningful questions, and imagined our own versions. We have since replicated the activity with Little Red Riding Hood, Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and Hansel and Gretel." - Molly Allen, Assistant Regional Superintendent, Illinois, USA

"The last decade saw increasing cooperation between Israel and many actors in the world, including ones that once were considered its enemies. One of the least covered aspects of this tendency are warming ties with the sub-Saharan Africa’s countries. The book contributes substantially to tracking and explaining this process. The Author provides us with a very detailed assessment of Israeli engagement with African partners and its future potential. The work is also important to the general study of the Jewish state’s soft power." - Dr Artur Skorek, Jagiellonian University, Poland.
"This is a comprehensive study of Israeli development assistance to Sub-Saharan African states covering a 50-year period (1956-2016), with some mild updates reaching to the beginning of 2019.　 It is cast in a broad, realistic neo-liberal conceptual framework which seeks to understand much of the ongoing relations between states in pragmatic terms and, specifically, as a by product of the capacity to muster "soft-power" to enhance reciprocity in the international arena.…the result is a meticulous, detailed work with refreshing information on the scope and character of Israeli technical assistance projects in Africa during the past three decades." - Prof. Naomi Chazan, The Academic College of Tel Aviv - Yafo, Israel.
"Israel’s size, in terms of population and geography is massively over-represented in the international media. As the holy land of two major world religions and the homeland of a people who have suffered centuries of oppression, culminating in the Holocaust, the world’s attention is very much on Israel. Equally, the hostility of the Islamic world (in general) to the country is and has been a dominant theme since the State of Israel’s inception. Israel has a remarkable ability to induce both feelings of empathy, admiration, respect, and awe, but also antagonism and hatred. This dualistic approach to the country by different elements of international society complicates its foreign policy and Israel, perhaps more than any other nation, has had to work hard to promote itself at the global level.…Israel has the potential to become a regional soft-power player. (…) Israel’s highly developed science and technology industry, including its hospitals, universities, high-techs and laboratories, is looked upon as a role model. Israel’s advanced fields can be leveraged in order to improve relationships and deepen interchange with Africa." - Prof. Ian Taylor, University of St. Andrews, UK.

&ldquo;Our world is saturated with trauma. Often this trauma remains unspoken and unacknowledged. Those of us who can notice and articulate this trauma still struggle to experience a sense of space and choice as we attempt to experience liberation from it. Embodied Healing offers this liberatory healing from an authentic place of compassion and gentleness rooted in the many years of tried and true Trauma Center Trauma-Sensitive Yoga research and pedagogy. This is a book that accompanies you on the journey back to balance, wholeness, and agency.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Lama Rod Owens, author of Love and Rage"Time and again, Jenn Turner has offered thoughtful perspectives that land in a deeply meaningful and practical way. This book is no exception. Through this compilation of diverse voices, from case examples to personal experiences, the reader is able to experience, explore, and integrate themes of TCTSY. Anyone interested in body-forward approaches to healing trauma will benefit from reading these collected works. A wonderful addition to the literature on trauma treatment."&mdash;Jennifer West, PhD, trauma specialist and author of &ldquo;Moving to Heal&rdquo;&ldquo;Jenn Turner&rsquo;s understanding of trauma, and the centrality of the role of survivors embodying their own liberation, is a compassionate and complete thread through this book. Each essay takes us into a facet of the many faces of healing in all its forms and possibilities. A powerful and timely read that will expand the notion of trauma, healing, and recovery.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Susanna Barkataki, speaker, trainer, yoga culture advocate and author of Embrace Yoga&rsquo;s Roots"Psychotherapist Turner collects 20 revealing essays about trauma-centered trauma-sensitive yoga (TCTSY) in this discerning anthology."&mdash;Publishers Weekly"Using yoga and the power of movement as a much-needed counterpoint to talk-therapy in the treatment of trauma, TCTSY is beautifully captured in this engaging project." &mdash;Matt Sutherland, Foreword Reviews "A seminal body of work that is especially and unreservedly recommended for community, college, and university library Neuropsychology, Psychopathology, and Post-traumatic Stress Disorder collections and supplemental curriculum reading lists."&#160;&mdash;Midwest Book Review

Praise for The Death of Jesus:&ldquo;[The Death of Jesus] not only impresses and confounds, but also moves to tears . . .&#160; [T]he Jesus trilogy returns us to what we could call 'major phase' Coetzee&mdash;to the titanic novels of&#160;Disgrace,&#160;Waiting for the Barbarians, and&#160;Life and Times of Michael K, with their expansive brevity, ethical richness, and enduring literary currency&mdash;and adds the insight of age . . . Coetzee is still possibly our greatest writer, and . . . with the masterpiece that is&#160;The Death of Jesus, he reminds us why.&rdquo; &mdash;The Los Angeles Review of Books &ldquo;You could call [Coetzee] a novelist of ideas, but also a philosopher working in fiction. Many of Coetzee&rsquo;s recent novels have the stripped-down quality of philosophical fable. His prose . . . [is] disorienting, then hypnotic. When Coetzee withholds back story, the reader must learn to tolerate mystery.&rdquo; &mdash;The New York Times Book Review&ldquo;[The Death of Jesus] brings to a close one of the most fascinating experiments in recent fiction, and one of the most misunderstood . . . Like other great artists in the late stages of their careers, Coetzee has grown less didactic and masterful, more interested in asking questions than answering them. Those questions are some of the biggest and oldest ones we have, about holiness and justice and parenthood and life after death, but that doesn&rsquo;t mean they have to be posed solemnly.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Adam Kirsch,&#160;Tablet&ldquo;Coetzee is working within a more spiritual dimension, concerned less with temporal matters than the judgment we might levy on our lives. In Coetzee&rsquo;s moral matrix, desire is of a piece with our fallen nature, equal parts good and evil. It is the source from which so many of our instincts spring: to have and to hold; to love and to cherish; to wound, to dominate, to destroy . . . Desire is the proof that we are alive; that we are, in both the best and worst senses of the word, human.&rdquo; &mdash;The New Republic&ldquo;What the reader will remember will be the pleasures available to anyone: the deadpan humor, the swoons of their melodramatic thriller plots, and the beguiling weirdness of the world Coetzee has constructed.&rdquo; &mdash;Harper&rsquo;s Magazine&#160;&ldquo;[A] thoughtful, clear-eyed final installment . . . Like in previous volumes, Coetzee&rsquo;s simple, clean prose is guided by philosophical questions, and Sim&oacute;n&rsquo;s humanistic reflections provide a thrilling contrast to David&rsquo;s bumpy journey of faith and acceptance of his mortality. This is an ambitious and satisfying conclusion.&rdquo; &mdash;Publishers Weekly&ldquo;Anything J.M. Coetzee writes deserves our full attention . . . The Death of Jesus is full of truth, irreducible, tearfully moving to read.&rdquo; &mdash;Evening Standard&ldquo;Concludes the trilogy with force and heart . . . if The Death of Jesus strikes you in the right place,then you will read its cool, dry final sentences&mdash;as I did&mdash;with tears in your eyes.&rdquo; &mdash;The Times (London)&ldquo;The Death of Jesus is a necessary read, casting a strange new light on one of the world's greatest and most elusive novelists.&rdquo; &mdash;Financial Times&#160; &ldquo;Any new novel from Coetzee commands respect, and the final part of the trilogy is no exception . . . The Death of Jesus constantly challenges what we believe and why.&rdquo; &mdash;The Mail on Sunday (UK)&ldquo;The Death of Jesus&#160;is fiction of an order that dazzles the mind and leaves the heart questing and reaching out for the power and profundity of what is at some remote level a restatement, even if it is a bewildering one, of what we traditionally think of as the greatest story ever told.&rdquo; &mdash;The Sydney Morning Herald&ldquo;Beautiful and strange:&#160; a sort of &#160;symbolist poem in prose . . . contains truths unsullied by the passage of time.&rdquo; &mdash;The Weekend Australian&ldquo;Though a veritable house of interpretative mirrors, as many of Coetzee's novels are, this one points readers to a less cerebral, more visceral intimacy with the losses it contemplates.&rdquo; &mdash;Booklist (starred review) Praise for The Schooldays of Jesus:&#160; &ldquo;Rich, dense, often amusing, and above all, full of inner tension and suspense.&rdquo; &mdash;The New York Times Book Review &#160; &ldquo;There&rsquo;s no denying the haunting quality of Coetzee&rsquo;s measured prose, his ability to suspend ordinary events in a world just a few degrees away from our own.&rdquo; &mdash;The Washington PostPraise for The Childhood of Jesus:&ldquo;[The Childhood of Jesus] plunges us at once into a mysterious and dreamlike terrain&hellip;.A Kafka-inspired parable of the quest for meaning itself.&rdquo; &mdash;Joyce Carol Oates,&#160;The New York Times Book Review&#160;(front page)&ldquo;[A book] of profound and painful humanity, preoccupied with some of the most essential questions about what it means to be a parent and what happens when noble principles are confronted with the grubby details of everyday life.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Patrick Flanery,&#160;The Washington Post

Praise for A Dickens of a Crime Mystery Series &#160; &#160;&ldquo;Mystery fans and history buffs alike should cheer.&rdquo; &mdash;Kirkus, STARRED Review on A Tale of Two Murders &#160; &ldquo;One of the most satisfying mysteries you will read this year.&rdquo;&#160; &mdash;Suspense Magazine on Grave Expectations &#160; &ldquo;A complex and highly satisfying mystery. Redmond weaves Dickensian themes&mdash;wealth and poverty, love and rejection&mdash;seamlessly throughout the story while evoking a Victorian era that feels immediate and alive. Fans of Anne Perry will love this one.&rdquo; &mdash;Dianne Freeman, author of the Countess of Harleigh Mysteries &#160; &ldquo;Meticulous attention to historical details and the known elements of Dickens's life . . . a complex mystery that cunningly explores how Dickens might have been inspired to write the plot of his most well-known book . . .

&ldquo;A remarkable new outing from a major voice in American letters.&rdquo;&mdash;Esquire&ldquo;A legendary African American novelist returns with her first novel in 22 years, an epic adventure of enchantment, enslavement, and the pursuit of knowledge in 17th-century Brazil . . . . Those familiar with Corregidora (1975) and Eva&rsquo;s Man (1976) will not be surprised by the sustained intensity of both imagery and tone. There is also sheer wonder, insightful compassion, and droll wit to be found among the book&rsquo;s riches. Jones seems to have come through a life as tumultuous as her heroine&rsquo;s with her storytelling gifts not only intact, but enhanced and enriching.&rdquo;&mdash;Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review&ldquo;Jones makes a strong return with a mesmerizing epic of late seventeenth-century Brazil. . . . Jones&rsquo; storytelling exerts a powerful pull, and readers will achieve complete immersion in a setting in which African and Indigenous cultures are memorably delineated. Through richly woven prose, Almeyda&rsquo;s journey compels reflection on how freedom must always be defended and how women bear extra societal burdens. Mystical sequences give the plot additional depth and texture. . . . [A] superb reclamation of the historical novel.&rdquo;&mdash;Booklist&ldquo;An epic and inventive saga . . . a triumphant return.&rdquo;&mdash;Publishers Weekly&ldquo;Now published, the book proves to be one of her most ambitious and, at times, extraordinary works of fiction. . . . By telling a story about the pursuit of freedom, Jones and Almeyda also create a place where Black freedom, if not realized, can at least be imagined, and thus remains a possibility.&rdquo;&mdash;The Nation&ldquo;Palmares is that rare thing, a life&rsquo;s work . . . . Unlike anything else that will be published this year.&rdquo;&mdash;Wall Street Journal&ldquo;Sprawling, but intimate and dreamily intense in the telling.&rdquo;&mdash;Daily Mail (UK)&ldquo;Astonishingly rich in character and incident, filled with magic and mystery.&rdquo;&mdash;The Sunday Times (UK)&ldquo;Palmares reinvents 17th-century Black Brazil in all its multiplicity, beauty, humanity and chaos. A once-in-a-lifetime work of literature, the kind that changes your understanding of the world.&rdquo;&mdash;The Guardian&ldquo;With Palmares, Jones has built an intricate world, channeled voices from the dead, merged history and memory to create an epic neo-slave narrative. . . . a dazzling picture of love, survival and the monstrous creation of a nation. Jones&rsquo; life work is a gift and long love song to the memory of millions.&rdquo;&mdash;The Undefeated&ldquo;A quilt of many colors and textures, held together with patterns of incantatory language and vivid description.&rdquo;&mdash;Historical Novel Society&ldquo;A literary giant, and one of my absolute favorite writers.&ldquo;&mdash;Tayari Jones, author of An American Marriage&ldquo;No novel about any black woman could ever be the same after this.&rdquo;&mdash;Toni Morrison, on reading the manuscript for Corregidora&ldquo;Gayl Jones&rsquo;s work represents a watershed in American literature. From a literary standpoint, her form is impeccable; from a historical standpoint, she stands at the very cutting edge of understanding the modern world, and as a Black woman writer, her truth-telling, filled with beauty, tragedy, humor, and incisiveness, is unmatched. Jones is a writer&rsquo;s writer, and her influence is found everywhere.&rdquo;&mdash;Imani Perry, author of Looking for Lorraine and Breathe&ldquo;Jones had a marked effect . . . on an entire generation of writers, whether they realized it or not.&rdquo;&mdash;Calvin Baker, The Atlantic&ldquo;Jones&rsquo;s great achievement is to reckon with both history and interiority, and to collapse the boundary between them.&rdquo;&mdash;Anna Wiener, The New Yorker&ldquo;Gayl Jones has presented problems that are living, historical and important additions to the current American&mdash;not just black&mdash;scene. Her novels are genuinely imaginative creations.&rdquo;&mdash;Darryl Pinckney, The New Republic&ldquo;Gayl Jones conjures with deep intimacy and immediacy a brutal world that is centuries past but fully alive with spirit and mystery. Page after breathtaking page, her prose is intricate, mesmerizing, and endlessly inventive and subversive. Palmares is absolutely stunning!&rdquo;&mdash;Deesha Philyaw, author of The Secret Lives of Church Ladies

&ldquo;Buddhist readers will be lifted by the unquestioned optimism for human achievement and potential in the future in Larung Gar teachings.&rdquo;&mdash;Publishers Weekly&ldquo;I am deeply honoured and grateful for the opportunity to remark on the writings of the eminent teachers of Larung Gar, especially the heart sons of the great and formidable Kyabje Khenchen Jigme Phuntsok Rinpoche. My observations of both Khenpo Tsultrim Lodro and Khenpo Sodargye over the years have turned gradually to admiration and then to real veneration. Their &lsquo;walk the talk&rsquo; approach to the dharma they teach gives great hope to all followers of the Buddhadharma. And so, I want to express my joy that having their words now in printed form will provide at least a glimpse of the unfathomable and infinite activity of these great teachers from Larung Gar.&rdquo;&mdash;Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche, author of The Guru Drinks Bourbon?&ldquo;Voices from Larung Gar is a groundbreaking volume that brings much-needed focus to one of the most important Buddhist institutions in the world. It provides depth and detail about this monastic academy and contemporary Buddhism in Tibet more generally. This volume also adds nuance to the larger question of how Buddhists interlace tradition and innovation in areas like gender equality, animal welfare, philosophy, and ethics.&rdquo;&mdash;David McMahan, author of The Making of Buddhist Modernism and editor of Meditation, Buddhism, and Science&ldquo;This anthology gives voice to the amazing leaders of the most dynamic Tibetan Buddhist institution of the last century. It illustrates vividly the remarkable ways in which Larung Gar monks and nuns are engaging modern social issues while remaining deeply grounded in their beloved Buddhist traditions.&rdquo;&mdash;David Germano, Executive Director of the Contemplative Sciences Center at the University of Virginia&ldquo;Khenpo Jigme Phuntsok Rinpoche was a remarkable master, the Buddha of Tibet in our time. Some of his disciples are among the most highly revered spiritual leaders in Asia. This is a blessed book that can be used for reading as well as a sacred object on one&rsquo;s altar.&rdquo;&mdash;Anam Thubten, founder and spiritual advisor to Dharmata Foundation and author of Choosing Compassion
