Paperback. Zustand: Good. Winner of the Storytelling World Award Stop talking You're supposed to be working on language --overheard in an elementary classroom by award-winning writer and storyteller Donald Davis. From the moment they are born, we encourage children to talk. We enunciate for them, applaud their expanding vocabularies, and hang on their every word. That is, until they enter school. At that time, we expect them to stop talking and measure their language abilities through a new medium: writing. While the educational system focuses on the written product as the sole measurement of language development, many children fail to measure up to established standards. Why? Because, Davis observes, writing is not our first communications tool; for most of us it functions as a foreign language. The problem is, individuals are not capable of creating or thinking within a foreign language. Davis argues that we must step back into our familiar first language--the spoken word--as our creative medium and learn to translate into that new foreign language called writing. With enough success, writing will eventually become a second language instead of a foreign language. When we talk about language arts in our school, we focus on reading and writing instead of nourishing the whole oral and kinesthetic package that is our spoken language. Davis argues that talking and writing should not be mutually exclusive in language development. In this book, he lays out the method he has used successfully in countless residencies at schools across the United States, working with adults, teens, children, and teachers to develop their personal writing style. …

Hardback. Zustand: Good. The words Christmas pageant will either fill with a nostalgic glow or make you break out into a cold sweat. Donald Davis knows that the holidays you remember aren't the ones where everything goes as expected; instead, you remember the ones that bring an element of surprise--if not outright disaster. The Davis household had its fair share of these incidents, including: the time the bear stole the family's Christmas dinner; the time the boys' Christmas gifts got repossessed; the time Joe-brother was cured once and for all of opening his presents early; the time Donald and his friend Larry Leatherwood laid a trap for their little brothers. and snagged some unfriendly wild game instead. The arc that these stories create follow a family in rural Appalachia from the horse-and-wagon days through the family's first car, new modern house with its gas stove, and first television--and reflects the revolving ways extended and immediate families observe, embrace, and celebrate the holidays. These humorous Yule tales will put readers in the holiday spirit as well as teach them about the importance of fairness, resourcefulness, and respect.…
