He was a prince, dying from a shard of cursed glass. She was a gardener, bound to save him. Theirs was a love that could thaw a kingdom doomed to an icy end.

Fairy tales, nursery rhymes, and fables teach children that the world is a dangerous place filled with monsters, witches, evil step-mothers, and claims adjusters, and no one is going to save you. Until now. For this witty, informative book, insurance expert Chantal M. Roberts, CPCU, AIC, RPA begged, borrowed, or bought her wings and wand, and through this collection of tales, rhymes, and fables, she helps you understand the world of property and casualty insurance and claims. From the "Three Blind Mice" to the "Three Little Pigs" to the "Three Spinning Women," Roberts uses familiar stories to illustrate important insurance principles and suggested strategies for handling claims. Whether you're a homeowner dealing with property damage, a driver involved in an auto accident, or simply someone who wants to better understand how insurance claims work, this book is an essential resource. With a touch of whimsy and a dash of humor, Roberts makes learning about insurance and claims a fun and engaging experience. She's turned what could the most be dry and boring reading of all time into a delightful experience. This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to be a better advocate for themselves and navigate the complex world of insurance and claims with confidence.

@UofJ411 : Qu'est-ce qui se passe ici ? #LesOpposesSAttirent #OuSontLesPost-itsSur une échelle de 1 à 10, Quinn Thompson est au moins à 15.Magnifique. Fougueuse. Cheerleader. Je suis si peu à la hauteur de cette fille que je suis même gêné d'oser fantasmer sur elle.Il faut que je parvienne à faire sortir de ma tête toutes ces pensées classées X qu'elle m'inspire. Avant qu'il ne soit trop tard.Sauf que c'est plus facile à dire qu'à faire quand la tentation vit dans le même appartement que toi. Pour quelqu'un d'aussi intelligent, c'est fou comme CK peut être naïf.Doux. Timide. La star de tous mes fantasmes mettant en scène un intello sexy, mais incapable de voir tous les appels du pied que je lui fais.Quand il m'a demandé de jouer les coachs en relation amoureuses pour lui, j'ai dit oui. Cela peut sembler extrême, mais je suis si désespérée que je suis prête à tout pour qu'il comprenne enfin, pour ne plus être sur la touche.Dommage que mon c¿ur soit autrement plus en sécurité sur le terrain de l'amitié que sur celui de l'amour.

In 1932, during the dark days of the Great Depression, Charlie Davis, from the inner Sydney suburb of Newtown, is laid off from work. When he can no longer pay the rent, his family establishes a dwelling in a shanty town called Happy Valley, near Le Perouse on Sydney's eastern fringe. To make ends meet, Charlie and his son, Tom, follow in the footsteps of the original 'rabbitohs' who had already earned a place in Sydney's folklore, and they traipse the streets selling rabbits. During his days as a rabbitoh, Tom befriends a young Irish girl Hazel, and to the horror of her Catholic family, she becomes pregnant. With her infant, she joins Tom and his family at Happy Valley, but struggles in the dour conditions. She flees Happy Valley, deserting her baby Bill, knowing that she is now carrying another child. She seeks refuge in a cold and cruel institution for unmarried, pregnant girls and does what she needs to do, so she can have a life with her baby daughter, Nancy. Eight years later in 1940, both Tom and his father, Charlie, take their place in the theatre of war. When the war is over, Tom is reunited with his mother and young son, Bill. Tom begins his search for Hazel. When the search proves successful, both Tom and Hazel agree to hide their history, not wanting their son, Bill, to learn of his abandonment as a baby. Tom is introduced to Nancy as an old friend that her mother knew from before the war. Thrown together as stepsiblings, Bill and Nancy see nothing shameful in the romantic chemistry that exists between them, unaware that they are full siblings. When eventually Bill finds out that Nancy is his biological sister, he does what he can to distance himself from her, though by this time she is already pregnant. He sets up Nancy in a nearby suburb and manipulates the situation so that a neighbour, Mrs Green, becomes the carer of their developmentally delayed son, Leon. She becomes the child's 'ma'.

Die in diesem Band versammelten Geschichten sind alle unterschiedlich und doch haben sie einen gemeinsamen Kern: eine Liebe für die Gegensätzlichkeit der Existenz. Eine, die alles umhüllt. Eine, die uns einlädt, genauer hinzuschauen, genauer hinzufühlen. Denn Kreativität und Struktur schließen sich nicht aus, sie sind Geschwister. Beide haben ihre Berechtigung, beide halten uns am Leben. Wir brauchen beide und diese Texte zeigen auf, wie wir sie in Einklang bringen können, indem wir den Widerspruch erkennen und ihn in der Akzeptanz überwinden.
