Up-and-coming millennial business manager Kamy Eliassi and baby boomer leader Terry Thompson team up to write Millennial Leadership, a business guide focused on Gen Y leaders and managers.  Eliassi, a higher-up at an international logistics company, is in charge of leading the entire organization—though he realizes he isn't managing to his best potential. His search for a mentor leads him to Thompson, a volunteer mentor who was an executive vice president and general manager at a leading fuel management company in Vancouver, Canada. Thompson's articles on leadership and management fundamentals are combined with Eliassi’s relevant leadership insights for the Modern Millennial to help leaders develop an inspiring organizational culture and achieve life balance.  Suggestions and stories combine in this easy-to-understand, concise management guide for leaders at all levels. While specifically focusing on Gen Y entrepreneurs, leaders, and managers, Millennial Leadership will inspire all who aspire to lead and manage with greatness.  Thompson's mentoring shows the importance of having someone to show you the ropes, while Eliassi's expertise proves that Gen Y managers can find success and thrive. It's a true example of teamwork and how people from different generations can work together in the spirit of mutual assistance.

From Publishers Weekly\nThis pensive, affectionate volume offers recipes that will bring the charm and delicious appeal of Southern homestyle cooking to any table. While the emphasis is squarely on recipes here, notes on ingredients, techniques and history support Thompson's belief that this comforting food "is a link to the past, perhaps even the mind's link to an imaginary past before the Civil War." Appetizers are trendy like garlic-tomato bread with mozzarella and sun-dried tomatoes or tradition-rooted like cheese beignets. Salads, such as chicken salad Veronique with almonds or apple and fennel salad with celery-seed dressing, and soups, including Florida conch chowder and oysters Rockefeller bisque, reflect an active and innovative cuisine. Southern fried chicken with cream gravy, rabbit sauce piquant and North Carolina barbecued pork are regional classics. Seafood ideas abound with Creole shrimp stew, fried catfish with dill sauce and crawfish-stuffed bell pepper. Desserts, including Mississippi mud cake, burnt sugar cake and vinegar pie, attest to a Southern fondness for sweets. Thompson, a cooking instructor and restaurant consultant, is author of Cajun-Creole Cooking. Illustrations not seen by PW.

Comic books and graphic novels, known collectively as "graphica," have long been popular with teenagers and adults. Recently graphica has grown in popularity with younger readers as well, motivating and engaging some of our most reluctant readers who often shun traditional texts. While some teachers have become curious about graphica's potential, many are confused by the overwhelming number of new titles and series, in both fiction and nonfiction, and are unsure of its suitability and function in their classrooms.
Drawing on his own success using graphica with elementary students, literacy coach Terry Thompson introduces reading teachers to this popular medium and suggests sources of appropriate graphica for the classroom and for particular students. Taking cues from research that supports the use of graphica with students, Terry shows how this exciting medium fits into the literacy framework and correlates with best practices in comprehension, vocabulary, and fluency instruction. Adventures in Graphica contains numerous, easy-to-replicate, instructional strategies, including examples of how graphic texts can be used to create a bridge as students transfer abstract comprehension strategies learned through comics and graphic novels to traditional texts.
 Adventures in Graphica provides a roadmap for teachers to the medium that the New York Times recently hailed as possibly "the next new literary form."

Instructional scaffolding is an essential part of teaching literacy. But what is scaffolding exactly? What does it look like in a classroom, and how can we improve the ways we use it? Despite its prominence in the repertoire of teaching strategies, scaffolding remains a vague concept for many teachers. In essence, scaffolding is the idea of supporting students as they build independence. In The Construction Zone, Terry Thompson identifies four critical processes to deepen your understanding and improve your practice of instructional scaffolding: · Finding and maintaining a specific focus · Practicing flexibility in planning and delivering instruction · Giving constructive feedback in response to student efforts · Monitoring to ensure that, in every moment, students are working at optimal levels of responsibility Thompson encourages teachers to enhance their use of the traditional gradual release process through five actionable steps: show, share, support, sustain, and survey, and in doing so provides procedures and techniques to help them establish and maintain strong scaffolds throughout the instructional day. The Construction Zone is written from the teacher’s perspective and urges educators to fully embrace their role in the scaffolding process while staying mindful of the effect it has on students. Taking a student from dependence upon the teacher to independent learning is what teaching is all about, and instructional scaffolding is key to accomplishing this goal. Regardless of where you are in your understanding of instructional scaffolding, TheConstruction Zone will raise your level of awareness around your instructional practices and the ways you scaffold students to independence.
