I Can...
|
| Summary/Abstract |
I Can Speak Up looks at shyness and self-esteem. It is structured around six personal stories that children will recognize and relate to, such as feeling shy during a performance or feeling frustrated when unable to master a new skill. In each section, a child narrates her/his experience and feelings, and talks about how he/she found a way of dealing with his/her emotions. Linked to each story are examples of other children who may have experienced the same feelings as the narrator for different reasons, along with guidance and strategies for understanding and living with these feelings. Though I Can Speak Up focuses on understanding emotions, it also touches on related issues such as bullying, racism and sibling rivalry.

| Summary/Abstract |
An exciting period of progress and change began in Europe in the 14th century. Known today as the Renaissance peroid, this was a great time when painters, sculptors, and scholars rediscovered the great works of ancient Greece and Rome. Michelangelo lived in Italy during this time, and is considered to be one of the greatest masters of the Renaissance. This book profiles major artists of the European Renaissance, and provides glimpses of developments in art in other parts of the world during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries.

| Summary/Abstract |
Impressionism began in France in the 1870s. The impressionists were a group of painters who wanted to create pictures that captured the light and mood of their surroundings. Renoir lived in France during this time, and is considered to be one of the most celebrated Impressionist masters. This book profiles major artists of the Impressionist era, which some say was the beginning of modern art, in the context of the political, economic, and other changes occurring throughout the world at the same time.
