Gripping, raw, and beautiful, this book reveals the struggles and rewards of caring for a child with severe disability and helps professionals work more sensitively and effectively with families of children with special needs. Written with grace and candor by special education professional Beth Harry, the book chronicles the life of her daughter, Melanie, who was born with a rare form of cerebral palsy and died less than 6 years later.

Captivating the reader from page one, Dr. Harry illuminates the full spectrum of her parenting experiences—from the day her "little bird" came into the world to the day she left. Readers will come away with a deep understanding of

• the complex emotions that parents experience as they adjust to life with a child who has special needs
• the practical and emotional aspects of supporting a child with feeding difficulties, vision impairment, and limited motor skills
• the joy parents experience when their child begins to communicate and make personal connections
• the lasting impact a professional's words can have on a parent, and the need to provide positive support that allows a child to reach her full potential
• the services, therapies, and interventions that improved Melanie's quality of life-and how they've changed since her story began in the 1970s

Ideal for use as a supplemental text in courses for preservice early interventionists, early childhood special educators, special educators, and health professionals, this book gives readers an unforgettable inside look at what families experience when their child has a disability—and how to meet their needs as their child grows. And, a Reader's Guide is included! Perfect for use in the classroom or in book clubs, the thought-provoking discussion questions help professionals absorb the book's lessons and apply them to everyday practice with families.

Eye-opening and inspiring, Melanie, Bird with a Broken Wing will leave a lasting impression and will, as Dr. Harry urges, prepare readers "to believe the messages of their hearts as they make professional decisions."

The Forest or the Trees?

� � � � "Gross global brain damage with severe mental retardation." What more was there to say? "Gross global brain damage with severe mental retardation." The summary words of Dr. Wilmington's diagnosis rang through my ears like a death knell for Melanie. I was devastated and disbelieving. They could not be right, for her intelligence communicated itself to me at every turn. They could not be right because she had learned too quickly all the things I had tried to teach her. They could not be right because her eyes told me they were wrong. They could not, please God, be right because if they were, she would live a life so limited as to be almost useless. They could not be right because she was my child!
� � � �How does a mother tread the fine line between what she sees and what she wants to see in her child? Where are the strengths and where are the weaknesses of the objective view of the outsider, as compared with the subjective view of the mother?
� � � �I believe that the mother's advantage is that of intimacy, which allows her a depth of perception unavailable to an outsider. I knew, for example, that Melanie's difficulty in focusing her eyes often made her appear to be turning away from people when she was in fact trying to look at them. With the advantage of intimacy, I knew also that the little squeal that others might interpret as a cry was Melanie's version of a laugh. I knew that flared nostrils followed by a little yawn meant that she was emptying her bladder.
� � � �But the mother's intimacy may also be a disadvantage. That intimacy made it impossible for me to see Melanie for the first time— to see her in her totality as a functioning individual who exists in the present and who compares in any given way to other individuals.
� � � �Such intimate knowledge of my child, and in this I am no different from other mothers, made it difficult for me to see her objectively at any point in time. How easy it is for a stranger to say of a child, "This child is spoilt and throws tantrums," "This child is cooperative," "This child is bright," "This child is retarded." Easy because a stranger meets the child on a given occasion and forms an overall impression—an impression that may be valid but is one dimensional.
� � � �The mother, knowing every stage that has contributed to the present entity, sees at once the present, past, and hopeful future and, in genuine confusion, replies, "Ah! Do you think so? Well, but, you see . . . ." Like the seasoned hunter, she cannot see the forest for the trees; she knows by touch each contour of the land but has no aerial view.
� � � �To me, it did not matter that from an aerial view the parts of Melanie's personal jigsaw puzzle did not integrate to form an impressive overall picture. What I knew was each part, by detail of color, shape, and texture. What the objective observers seemed to be looking for was the overall impression—the gestalt presented by Melanie's ill-fitting and poorly coordinated parts.
� � � �They observed, for example, that her comprehension of language appeared to be way ahead of all other areas of her development. Indeed, they made a point of commenting on this incongruity between her receptive language and her overall functioning. But they simply could not accept that such a mismatch could be true and attributed her comprehension to intensive repetitive drill on my part and consequent rote learning by Melanie. By rote learning, they meant learning that can only be applied within the narrow limits in which the lesson took place. In rote learning, there is no ability to transfer knowledge or apply it in new situations because it is learning that is mechanical rather than creative in nature, and is largely limited to the context in which it was first acquired. According to this view, Melanie's comprehension of language was, in the psychologist's words, a not very meaningful "splinter development."
� � � �What effect did this devastating judgment by these professionals have upon me and my view of Melanie?
� � � �I wish I could say that their words were only barely influential, that I knew I could retain my own opinion in spite of theirs. But I cannot. In spite of my own experience and observations, I was vastly influenced and depressed by these pronouncements. I think, in the long run, after my initial shock and astonishment, I gradually worked my way to a feeling something like this: I was not convinced that they were right that Melanie had so little potential for intellectual development. But I decided to face the fact that obviously she functioned as someone with severe disabilities regardless of what potential she might possess; and after all, how can one consider or describe potential in isolation from a person's performance? The fact was she performed at the level of a person with severe developmental disabilities.
� � � �But the corollary to this of course would be, what then? Should I alter my expectations and thus, probably, my efforts and objectives to be more in tune with this terrible diagnosis? I believe that I could not help altering my expectations to some extent. I pride myself on being a realist who manages to cope reasonably well with crises because I take care to prepare myself by accepting whatever appears to be factual. I think I have considerable faith in my own judgment under normal circumstances, but I also have great respect for experience and training. It would have been very difficult for me to maintain my optimism without some encouragement from professional quarters.
� � � �Fortunately, I did receive some encouragement. Sarah, Melanie's most admiring therapist, was convinced that her colleagues were wrong. She insisted, with no reservations, that Melanie behaved like an intelligent child severely affected by athetoid cerebral palsy, affecting all her muscular coordination including facial expression and speech. She lectured me severely on allowing myself to be influenced in my approach and insisted that I must aim as high as possible for Melanie and at all times expect comprehension. She reminded me of Dr. Karen Pape's explanation of how difficult it would be for whatever intelligence Melanie might have to break through the barriers of severe brain stem and cerebellar damage, and we regretted that Dr. Pape was away in England at that time.
� � � �Like Dr. Challenor and my friend Pat at Blythedale Hospital the year before, Sarah recommended Bobath physical therapy as the most important treatment for Melanie, an approach in which a child is repeatedly put through all the normal developmental patterns of movement in the correct sequence in an attempt to diminish the abnormal reflexes of the child with cerebral palsy and to teach the child to exercise conscious control over her muscles. I doubted very much that I would find such a therapist in Trinidad but was determined to continue practicing what principles I had already learned from the OCCC staff and from Sarah.
� � � �I have said that I was depressed and discouraged by the assessment that June. Yet I knew that I could never choose to do less than my best for Melanie. Her welfare and development had become the object of my life, and my own satisfaction and sense of personal well-being were now inextricably bound to hers. If I could work successfully with her, accepting her limitations but providing every possible opportunity for her development, then I would be successful in my own eyes and could live happily with myself and with her.

It is also an essential book for parents and families who are struggling with or who have a loved one struggling with parenting
By Anne
in this book, Dr. Harry illustrates, in example upon example, a parent's dark, intense grief and fear for her severely disabled daughter, Melanie, and the parent's triumph in not only learning how to care for Melanie but also figuring out how to get Melanie educated, learning and growing so that the child could reach her potential. It is difficult for people who do not know the anguish to understand the feelings and perspectives of parents who have children with special needs. This book lays out the realities of parenting such a child and, in so doing, helps the reader grow in understanding and compassion. This book improves hearts and opens minds.

"Melanie," in my opinion, should be on every book list for special educators -- in colleges and universities that train special education teachers, for school district training, and on book lists for administrators who oversee special education programs. It is also an essential book for parents and families who are struggling with or who have a loved one struggling with parenting a child with a disability.

Inspiring
By Dave
This book is very inspiring. My girlfriend and I were looking at houses to buy, but we both hate the idea of taking huge loans in an unstable housing market. Instead, we're going to purchase some land and build our own house, paying as we go. This book is an excellent resource for fleshing out that idea and giving us inspiration and options.

Okay, not great
By ManyManias
First, a gripe. I purchased this volume used from TinSignsAmerica. The condition was listed as "Good", but the first two pages are torn out, and roughly at that. Granted, these pages were apparently title pages, so the readability of the book was unaffected... but I'd hardly call such a volume "Good" condition.

Now, on to the book itself.

I purchased this book mainly for "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty", and mainly to see if there was any more to the story than I had read in school. (As it turns out, there isn't.) I read it cover to cover, more out of hope and a sense of obligation than anything else, and I have to say I came away a bit disappointed.

I'm far from being a Thurber enthusiast, but I definitely expected more from someone who received so many plaudits as a humorist. Part I, being an assortment of his articles and fiction, I found especially heavy going, as the humor rarely rose above smirkworthy. Being a product of Thurber's time, there were tidbits I may have found slightly more amusing if I were more familiar with the popular culture of the time in which these pieces were written.

Having said that, I found refreshing the frequent references to smoking cigarettes... a breath of fresh air in this era of clean air fascism run amok.

I found Part II much more enjoyable, as it contained several pieces Thurber wrote regarding his European travels in the days just prior to WWII breaking out. I found those pieces enjoyable not just as travelogues, but also as contemporary history, with just a touch of wry amusement that comes from knowing how events ultimately played out.

If you're already a fan of Thurber's writing, you may already have this collection or something like it. (See other reviews for more authoritative recommendations.) If you've never read Thurber, I can't honestly say I would recommend you start. Some of his works are available online, so the first taste is free...

He gave us Walter Mitty for cryin' out loud!
By Hal
Thurber is Classic. You can't put Parker and Co. in perspective w/o him. Buy all you can get your hands on.

A Little Thurber
By LizaJane
Contains a few good pieces, but not too many overall. Unfortunately there is almost nothing available of Thurber in recorded books. This is better than nothing, but we are long overdue for an issue of, say, The Thurber Carnival.

Blade lives
By N. Durham
Blade is an ultra rarity in the comic world. The only time he's ever really worked in comics is when Marv Wolfman created him in the 70's for the original Tomb of Dracula, yet the character has translated to a trilogy of films (ranging from excellent to average) with Wesley Snipes in the title role, and since then, a number of new Blade comics have been started; all of which winding up getting cancelled. Things appear to be different this time around, with promising screenwriter Marc Guggenheim (Wolverine) at the helm and Howard Chaykin (American Century, Bite Club) providing the artwork. Make no mistake that there's nothing bad at all about this new take on Blade, which finds the seemingly invincible vampire hunter doing what he does best, while flashbacks to his past are shown intermediately as well. As a whole, Guggenheim's story works, but the breakneck pace of his storytelling makes it easy to get lost in the action. There's appearances from Spider-Man, Dr. Doom, Wolverine, Morbius the Living Vampire, and even Dracula himself to boot as Blade runs afoul of vamps, body jumping demons, and even S.H.I.E.L.D. as well in the midst of the Civil War. Howard Chaykin's artwork however is the definite lowpoint of Undead Again, as the veteran writer/artist appears to be on somewhat of a downward slide, but hopefully, this isn't the case considering the body of work he has under his belt. All in all, there's nothing really special about this first TPB of the new Blade series, but considering what's come before it, this new take is quite refreshing.

Best Blade in years
By strat14
I've read several different incarnations of Blade from the early 90's onward, and this series is by far the best. It combines the best aspects of the Blade character from the earlier comics with the best aspects from Wesley Snipes' screen portrayal to create the ultimate Blade. The storyline and dialogue are great, and there's plenty of suckhead killing action to satisfy fans of the films. I love the artwork as well, just be warned that the cover art looks completely different from the art inside, although both are awesome. I highly recommend buying this and Vol.2 to finish the series. It's a shame it only ran 12 issues. Overall, it's the best Blade in years and a great read.

BLADE the vampire hunter
By GSD
This is one of the best stories I've read featuring the character Blade, but the action is kind of minimal. I had no idea Blade could be so versatile. He runs afoul of Dr. Doom, Wolverine and Spiderman himself and by the end of it all finds out who his real father is: a ruthless vampire named Cross. A nice sequence featuring Blade's mother giving birth and the now infamous Deacon Frost interrupting the birth to bite his mother.

Very good, but only buy it if you are a blade fan.

Management of cyber security is challenging. Cyber security professionals tend to take a rather skewed approach in dealing with security issues. Clearly there is no right or wrong path to choose. An exclusive reliance on technical measures ignores the governance aspects that are so important. Incorporating governance may result in ignoring the cultural and normative issues. It is usually not about choosing one over the other. It is about defining a holistic perspective to management of cyber security. This book covers an interesting range of topic areas. These include cyber stalking, cyber fraud and abuse; denial of services; cyber espionage; cryptography, security policies; cyber terrorism; cyber detection and forensics. Ethical and intellectual property issues are also discussed. The book culminates with case studies. Cases allow students to apply and contextualize the concepts.

The second installment in the Only series. Must read book one first!!

First loves never die but Grayson Ford comes close. Bleeding out in a war zone, he barters with God. Bring him back alive, and he’ll make it right with his girl.

All I want is Emma. I need her, and I fight for her memory. A story. A smile. Anything. But it’s all blank.

Emma is not his girl anymore. Time has skipped by and life’s been hard. She strips to pay the bills, waitresses to fill the hours between classes and her third job. All while working to be the best mama she can be to the little girl who will never know her daddy. Even though Grayson abandoned her, she mourned his death. Until he calls, and everything she knew was wrong.

It’s him. The him that ruined my life. That made my life. That confused my mind to the point that I can’t figure out if I’ve been destroyed or set free. The him that… is… dead.

He’s back with one objective—Emma Kingsley—and she never sees it coming.

Review

"The Only series is sweet, passionate and completely addictive!!" -Straight Shootin' Book Reviews

"This story is perfection. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would. #MorePlease" -Obsessed With Myshelf

"[Grayson] was book-boyfriend crush-able before but now he is absolutely alluring and irresistible." - Books Movies Fandom

"...a great novella filled with love, longing and loss." Naughty Book Snitch

"...shows that true love prevails no matter the consequences." - Goodreads Reviewer

From the Author
It's sweet, it's hot, it's totally different from what you've read in the Titan and Delta series. There is Titan crossover. It's set in that world with familiar characters but it's told a different way. Think Sweet Girl smashed with Garrison's Creed. Grayson and Emma will make you swoon.

ONLY FOR HER is the second of four books in the new novella series by New York Times bestselling romance author Cristin Harber. The series follows a young couple pulled apart by war and thrown together by family. All volumes planned to release Spring 2015.

From the Back Cover
The Titan Series:

Book 1: Winters Heat
Book 1.5: Sweet Girl
Book 2: Garrison's Creed
Book 3: Westin's Chase
Book 4: Gambled
Book 5: Chased
Book 6: Savage Secrets
Book 7: Hart Attack
Book 8: Sweet One
Book 9: Black Dawn

The Delta Series:

The Delta Novella in Liliana Hart's MacKenzie Family Collection:

The Only Series:

Each Titan and Delta book can be read as a standalone (except for Sweet Girl), but readers will likely best enjoy the series in order.

Another excellent ready by Cristin Harber!
By Kelle
After barreling through Only For Him, I was super excited to read this follow up. The character development in this series is excellent, and I feel as if the author left nothing out. I felt instantly connected to the story early on.

The relationship between Emma and Garyson is so compelling, and even after reading the first two in this series, I am still so excited to read the others. I felt such a connection to the characters and the story of their unwavering love, even in times of separation and difficulty.

The inclusion of some characters from her other series HAD me. And the ending had me laughing so hard, I was crying and pumping my fist in the air! Simply CANNOT wait until her next books!

Cristin does it again
By Nathalie
Wow! I've been a fan of Cristin Harber ever since I was introduced to her Titan Series.

I wasn't sure what to expect with this book since I kind of went into this series blind. Though I'm glad I did because I truly enjoyed getting to know Emma and Grayson. Only for Her, picks up right where Only from Him ends and boy did it leave us hanging!

My heart broke for Emma in this book And learning where her life journey went after Grayson left.. But we soon find out that true love never dies.

Overall I loved this book. Looking forward to part 3!

4 times 125 pages instead of one book
By Amazon Customer
Very predictable.
I did get invovled in the story, but it pisses me off that I have to stop reading every 125 pages to buy a new "book"! Why on earth is it not just one book!?
Thisted alone costs a star. Should have cost more for how much it irritated me

"Lukacs's book is a lyrical, sometimes dazzling, never merely nostalgic evocation of a glorious period in the city's history. . . . {His} true sympathy lies . . . not with the famous expatriates, but with the writers and intellectuals who lived and died at home: the poets Endre Ady and Mihaly Babits; the novelists Ferenc Herczeg, Sandor Hunyady, Frigyes Karinthy, Dezso Kosztolanyi, Gyula Krudy, Kalman Mikszath, and Zsigmond Moricz; the political essayist DezsoSzabo; the playwright Erno Szep; the literary historian Antal Szerb; and others. . . . {John Lukacs} sets out to explain Hungarian literature to English-speaking readers. Though I have no idea whether or not he will succeed, few interpreters of Hungarian literature have made a more touching and eloquent attempt." -- The New York Review of Books

From Publishers Weekly
During the period 1896-1906, Budapest, in contrast to its twin capital Vienna, was an optimistic, self-confident, less neurotic, relatively new city, characterized by both virile provinciality and urbane Magyar sensitivity. Lukacs, who has written histories of 20th century Europe and the U.S., here presents a portrait of Budapest's physical and material conditions, its people and politics, their achievements, troubles, art and culture, both around the year 1900 and later, with the rise of nationalism and of anti-Semitism. Budapest's class-conscious society had a tremendous respect for intellectual achievement and an impressive outpouring of talent, but because the Hungarian language is little known beyond its borders, few of its major literary figures achieved prominence elsewhere. Still, an astonishing number of Budapestians have become famous abroad, especially in America, among them Bela Bartok, George Lukacs and Arthur Koestler. This is a reliable account of a beautiful city at the zenith of its prosperity, with a brief final chapter describing the subsequent 80 years. Illustrations not seen by PW.

The Souring of Nationalism
By Buce
This is another book that deserves to be put back into print. Throughout a long and productive career, John Lukacs has taken pride (sometimes bordering on preening) in his penchant for defining things his own way. Sometimes it works, sometimes it just a distraction. But no subject is better suited to his mix of talents than this "historical portrait" (as he puts it) of this the capital of his native country.
The book is a nostalgia trip in part, but it is a good deal more. Lukacs also undertakes to to situate Budapest in the Austro-Hungarian Empire and in particular, in contrast to its great partner, Vienna -- it's remarkable even today how these two cities, so close together on the map can seem so far apart.
But perhaps the best part of the book is in his chapter on "Seeds of Trouble," when he undertakes to show how liberal nationalism went sour and headed down the road to anti-semitism and the destructive hyper-nationalism that wracked us all through so much of the 20th century. Liberal nationalism had always contained the seeds of its own undoing. Discerning politicians as disparate as Disraeli, Bismark and Napoleon III had already grasped how the liberal impulse could be harnessed to conservative ends. But through Lukacs' eyes, you can see just how quick and subtle -- and disastrous -- the shift can be. Probably the point is that Lukacs was never a good liberal to begin with. So he can look on with unblinkered eyes as the liberal vision crumbles in his hands.
For all of Lukacs' aristocratic disdain, it is possible for a reader less austere than the author to see this shift as a disaster. Perhaps a good pairing for this book would be Gordon A. Craig's "Triumph of Liberalism" about Zurich in a slightly earlier time: there you can be reminded (if you need reminding) of just how refreshing the rise of liberalism could be.
Lukacs has a final chapter called "Since Then," but it's perfunctory. There's certainly a story to be told about 20th Century Budapest, but you wouldn't come here to find it. On the other hand, as an exercise in archaeology -- of the substrate that underlies our more recent battles -- this book is hard to beat.

OK (but only OK) if you are interested in Budapest around 1900
By R. M. Peterson
In many of his books, Lukacs sets out to write a multi-disciplinary history (drawing on economics, psychology, sociology, and political theory) of a narrowly circumscribed subject during a relatively thin slice of time (e.g., "Five Days in London, May 1940" and "June 1941: Hitler and Stalin"). Here, the object of Lukacs' rather idiosyncratic approach to history is the city of Budapest around 1900, which, according to Lukacs, was the city's zenith as a cultural and commercial center of (Eastern) Europe. Unlike reading many of Lukacs' books, however, reading BUDAPEST 1900 is tough going. Lukacs does make an impressive case for the significance of Budapest and its many notable literary, artistic, and intellectual figures around the turn of the century, but he burdens that case with page after page of tedious chamber-of-commerce data: miles of railroad track, water consumption per capita, number of mailboxes, number of gymnasiums, theater seats per capita, etc., etc. Further, it is not readily apparent which pages or paragraphs to skip. To get to the wheat, one must necessarily sift through a lot of chaff.

I read this book as background and in preparation for reading some of the works of Gyula Krudy, and I looked forward to it because over the years I had enjoyed a number (at least six) other books by Lukacs. But this is not as well-written nor as intrinsically interesting as were the other books of his that I read, and the prickly and grandiloquent (an adjective that is used far too often in the book) side of Lukacs is a little too evident. Despite numerous informative and insightful passages, I had to force myself to stick with this book to the end, and having reached the end I am not sure it was worth the effort.

A Good Read Most of the Time
By A Customer
Having spent a summer in Budapest as a student, I was particularly interested in its history after my return. This book really fills in many of the details about the city that I never knew when living there. It's full of factiod information on population, language, architecture, etc. The problem with it; however, is that it doesn't effectively integrate these topics and treats them as rather separate phenomena (which of course they aren't). Still, it's the best history of Budapest that I've found and that's commendable.
