True Partnerships in SEND: Working Together to Give Children, Families and Professionals a Voice (nasen spotlight)

A heartfelt, funny memoir about how a kitten rescue project changed one cynic’s life… Journalist Heather Green was finally putting down roots: in shiny, buzzing Manhattan. She loved her work and threw herself into sixty-hour weeks—once walking into a subway pole, getting a concussion, and still going to the office. Her new boyfriend Matt lived across the river in a New Jersey town that had none of the glamour of New York. She liked Matt—a lot—yet she wasn’t sure what to make of weekends in gritty, dilapidated Union City. But things changed the summer morning Heather discovered a beautiful stray cat and her three black-and-white kittens in Matt’s neighbor’s backyard. When she made eye contact with one of the kittens, she felt something she’d never felt before. She and Matt had to save the little animals. Because if they didn’t, who would? The crazy world of cat rescue soon drew Heather in. As she and Matt worked together to figure out how to trap, tame, and find homes for their foundlings, she began to question the life she had back in Manhattan. This is the story of how three furry beings taught one woman about love, community, and what truly matters in life.

Have you ever wondered what your animals are thinking? Have you wanted to find a way to communicate and connect with them to improve their health and behavior, and your relationship with them? Heather Green learned early in life that she could sense what the people around her were thinking, feeling, and experiencing. This led her into the healing professions; first a nurse, and later a counselor. But something always seemed to be missing. Then the horses came. And all the pieces fell into place. For the Love of Horses is a book for horse people, animal and nature lovers, healers, counselors, and those on a path of healing and spiritual transformation. Riders will learn how to enhance their partnership with their horses, healers will gain a new view of what it means to be there for their clients, people with wounds they never thought could mend will find hope. Green takes the reader on a journey shrouded in mystery, destined for clarity and wholeness. Part memoir, part inspirational coaching, part instruction manual, this book tells the story of one woman's discovery of her life's mission. Those whose stories interwove with hers along the way come to life in these pages. The horses can be heard. And the promise of this book is that the world can change and thrive.

In No Other Rome, the title's "o"s are islands (wholes) or holes, lacunae, apertures through which we view the past or future. The poems in this collection engage contemporary art and Modern literature, alongside texts from Classical Greece and Rome, in an embodied, intertextual worry. The poems ask what lasts--"please last"--and what might be the last (or, with an "o," "lost,") "time," "auk," or "breath" as we move away from twentieth-century concerns into an unpredictable future. When there is no Planet B, no other Troy to burn, these elegies, love poems, and meditations seek a song that could "in singing, change the seen."
