    H, ILL INO I S UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS AT URBANA-CHAMPAIGN PRODUCTION NOTE University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Library Large-scale Digitization Project, 2007. Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO * GRADUATE LIBRARY SCHOOL Volume 25 MARCH, 1972 Number 7 New Titles for Children and Young People Alden, Carella. Sunrise Island; A Story of Japan and its Arts. Parents' Magazine, 1971. 62p. illus. Trade ed. $4.50; Library ed. $4.19 net. Based on the Japanese production in "Art Entertainments," a series for young Ad people at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and profusely illustrated by 4-6 photographs of art objects and some buildings, this is a combination of historical overview and survey of art forms. Interesting as the material is, the book is weakened by the fact that so much ground is covered that the text moves in jumps-"About a thousand years after..." one chapter begins. In a lecture, moving from one art object and the cultural facts it reflects to the next is not disruptive; in print it is awkward. A relative index is appended. Andersen, Hans Christian. The Emperor's New Clothes; with text ad. from Hans Christian Andersen and other sources by Jean Van Leeuwen; illus. by Jack and Irene Delano. Random House, 1971. 50p. Trade ed. $4.95; Library ed. $5.39 net. One of the most popular of Andersen's stories in new dress-or perhaps it's new R undress-is illustrated with fresh and imaginative pictures, beautifully detailed, 3-5 lively, and humorous. The emperor is pudgy and pompous, the tailors crafty and leering, the faces of the crowd watching the regal procession a frieze of shock when the ingenuous child points out the truth.

I argue that one of the main characters of Jansson’s book is the autumn forest that surrounds the abandoned Moomin house. The decomposing forest is not just an emblem of the inner lives of the guests that gather in the house but is an active character itself: an ambiguous life form that creeps in the house and must be expelled from its living core. I further demon- strate that the emotion of disgust has a crucial role in Jansson’s narrative, and that an adequate analysis of the intentional content of disgust allows us to see what is at issue in the relations between the characters. In my reading, the main insight of Tove Jansson’s last Moomin book is not about loss or sorrow but is about the human capacity to begin anew by composing novel wholes from scraps.

Digital Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Medicine 1667. 101 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-513-0950-7. Background and Aim Being diagnosed with cancer is often described as a major loss of control leading to severe psychological distress and symptoms of anxiety and depression can continue to affect the individual in the long term. The cancer and its treatment may influence all dimensions of health, thus the psychosocial support provided needs to be multifaceted and easy accessed. Internet-based interventions may be one way to provide such support, but evidence is limited. This thesis aimed to investigate the design, effects, and experiences of internet-based psychosocial support in cancer. Methods and Results Study 1 encompassed a co-creation development process resulting in the interactive support provided as the first step in an internet-based stepped care intervention (iCAN-DO).

    COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS FOR English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects _____ Appendix B: Text Exemplars and Sample Performance Tasks OREGON COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS FOR English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects Exemplars of Reading Text Complexity, Quality, and Range & Sample Performance Tasks Related to Core Standards Selecting Text Exemplars The following text samples primarily serve to exemplify the level of complexity and quality that the Standards require all students in a given grade band to engage with. Additionally, they are suggestive of the breadth of texts that students should encounter in the text types required by the Standards. The choices should serve as useful guideposts in helping educators select texts of similar complexity, quality, and range for their own classrooms. They expressly do not represent a partial or complete reading list. The process of text selection was guided by the following criteria: Complexity. Appendix A describes in detail a three-part model of measuring text complexity based on qualitative and quantitative indices of inherent text difficulty balanced with educators’ professional judgment in matching readers and texts in light of particular tasks. In selecting texts to serve as exemplars, the work group began by soliciting contributions from teachers, educational leaders, and researchers who have experience working with students in the grades for which the texts have been selected. These contributors were asked to recommend texts that they or their colleagues have used successfully with students in a given grade band. The work group made final selections based in part on whether qualitative and quantitative measures indicated that the recommended texts were of sufficient complexity for the grade band.
