    RHINO WHO SWALLOWED A STORM

    RHINO WHO SWALLOWED A STORM
    $17.95

    When little Mica Mouse is scared by thunder booming outside her cozy home, Papa Mouse reaches for just the right story to comfort her. Hugging her close, he begins to read The Rhino Who Swallowed a Storm. In this poetic book-within-a-book, a happy little rhinoceros is overwhelmed by a storm that sweeps away everything he loves. Swallowing the storm just makes him feel worse, so Rhino sets off on a whimsical journey toward healing. Along the way, he meets many friends, including a kind spider, a brave kangaroo, a wise tortoise, and an uplifting whale. With their help, Rhino lets go of the storm inside and learns to see the light in a world turned gray. Mica Mouse is soothed by the story and Papa’s gentle reminder that even though bad things sometimes happen, the world is full of people who care.

    In his first children’s book, longtime Reading Rainbow host LeVar Burton gives us an engaging resource to help children express their feelings and navigate through difficult experiences. The “Take a Deeper Look” page at the end of the book even provides discussion questions to facilitate a healing dialogue.

    SCHOOLS FOR THE LORD'S SERVICE

    SCHOOLS FOR THE LORD'S SERVICE
    $69.95
    An inspiring narrative history of the oldest congregation of Benedictine monasteries in the United States.

    Commissioned by the American-Cassinese Benedictine Congregation, Schools for the Lord's Service is a comprehensive narrative history of the oldest congregation of Benedictine monasteries in the United States. In vivid detail, it describes how monasteries of the American-Cassinese Congregation initiated monastic life in North America according to the Rule of St. Benedict and how, in doing so, they have engaged for nearly 170 years with the American Catholic Church, the global Benedictine Order, the Holy See, and American society.

    Following a Benedictine tradition that stretches back to the early Middle Ages, American-Cassinese monks spread out from Pennsylvania to establish monasteries throughout the United States. Led by Boniface Wimmer, a visionary monk from the Bavarian abbey of Metten, the Benedictines introduced monastic observance according to the Rule of St. Benedict in these monasteries, and from them they founded missions, parishes, and schools where they continue to carry on pastoral, educational, and missionary apostolates in the service of the people of God. Comprised of twenty-five monasteries located in the United States, Puerto Rico, Canada, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, and Taiwan, the legacy and spirit of the American-Cassinese Benedictines continues to reinforce and complement the words of Abbot Boniface Wimmer who constantly exhorted his Benedictine brothers and sisters, "Forward, always forward."

    THE IDEA OF THE AMERICAN UNIVERSITY

    THE IDEA OF THE AMERICAN UNIVERSITY
    $60.00
    As John Henry Newman reflected on 'The Idea of a University' more than a century and a half ago, Bradley C. S. Watson brings together some of the nation's most eminent thinkers on higher education to reflect on the nature and purposes of the American university today. They detail the life and rather sad times of the American university, its relationship to democracy, and the place of the liberal arts within it. Their mordant reflections paint a picture of the American university in crisis. But they also point toward a renewal of the university by redirecting it toward those things that resist the passions of the moment, or the pull of mere utility. This book is essential reading for thoughtful citizens, scholars, and educational policymakers.

    THE PITTSBURGH STEELERS: AN ILLUSTRATED TIMIELINE

    THE PITTSBURGH STEELERS: AN ILLUSTRATED TIMIELINE
    $42.00

    Heading into the 2024 season, no team has won more Super Bowls than the Pittsburgh Steelers and no team has won more games since the merger. The Steelers won their 500th post-merger game late in the 2022 season. Prior to the modern era, the Steelers struggled but they persevered through the wiles of founder Art Rooney. As a young athlete growing up on the North Side of Pittsburgh, Rooney not only learned the sporting game, he learned politics, which helped him nurture the struggling young Steelers through their barnstorming days of the 1920s, their initial foray into the NFL in the 1930s, their topsy-turvy survival skills of the 1940s, and then into the rugged 1950s as they learned how to win. That winning came in the form of Buddy Parker and Bobby Layne in the late part of that decade and into the 1960s, but it was Art’s oldest son, Dan Rooney, who showed the city the importance of not only the draft but stability in the coaching ranks. Those are the ingredients Chuck Noll used to put together four Super Bowl champions during the 1970s. After Noll came the long-tenured coaching careers of Bill Cowher and Mike Tomlin, who also won Lombardi Trophies.

    The details of this incredible history are unraveled within this book, a richly researched masterpiece that will surprise and inform even the hardest-core of the hardcore Steelers Nation.

    THE WORLD OF MISTER ROGERS' NEIGHBORHOOD

    THE WORLD OF MISTER ROGERS' NEIGHBORHOOD
    $72.95

    Unlike many children's television shows, Mister Rogers' Neighborhood did more than simply entertain or occupy children's attention. The show educated them in the affective domain, encouraging such things as appreciation for difference, collaboration, self-expression, and self-worth. It also introduced them to the areas of culture, art, and music through guests, trips, art objects and processes, and demonstrations, making it accessible and meaningful in a way that a child could understand. While the educational content of children's television programming has improved greatly since the late 1960s, no other children's program has ever attempted such a mix of high art, low art, folk art, industrial production, learning in the affective and social domains, and more, all with a whimsical sense of humor, insight, and a level of interconnected detail unmatched by any other children's television program. This book illuminates and examines the world of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood through world design, narrative, genre, form, content, authorship, reception and more.
