  the science of breakable things: The Science of Breakable Things Tae Keller, 2019-05-21 Natalie's uplifting story of using the scientific process to save her mother from depression is what Booklist calls a winning story full of heart and action. Eggs are breakable. Hope is not. When Natalie's science teacher suggests that she enter an egg drop competition, Natalie thinks that this might be the perfect solution to all of her problems. There's prize money, and if she and her friends wins, then she can fly her botanist mother to see the miraculous Cobalt Blue Orchids--flowers that survive against impossible odds. Natalie's mother has been suffering from depression, and Natalie is sure that the flowers' magic will inspire her mom to love life again. Which means it's time for Natalie's friends to step up and show her that talking about a problem is like taking a plant out of a dark cupboard and giving it light. With their help, Natalie begins an uplifting journey to discover the science of hope, love, and miracles. A vibrant, loving debut about the coming-of-age moment when kids realize that parents are people, too. Think THE FOURTEENTH GOLDFISH meets THE THING ABOUT JELLYFISH.

Nothing is going right this summer for Drew. And after losing his dad unexpectedly three years ago, Drew knows a lot about things not going right. First, it’s the new girl Audrey taking over everything at the library, Drew’s sacred space. Then it’s his best friend, Filipe, pulling away from him. But most upsetting has to be the mysterious man who is suddenly staying with Drew’s family. An old friend of Mom’s? Drew isn’t buying that. With an unlikely ally in Audrey, he’s determined to get to the bottom of who this man really is.

  the science of breakable things: Attachment Theory, The Science of Successful Relationships, Authentic Love, Romance and Connection Darcy Carter, Discover The Secrets To Building Healthy, Happy and Rewarding Relationships We all want that special 'someone' who's going to love us unconditionally, honour us and accept us for just being who we are. Authentic love and connection are enormously powerful bonds between two people. Unfortunately though, if we've had more than our fair share of bad relationships through our lifetime. Then it can become easy to suspect there's no right person, just many different alternatives of wrong. We have a staggering divorce rate which causes untold damage to the partners and even more so to their children. It is common, perhaps expected, for relationships to suffer from maladaptive patterns over time (it's like a car that needs maintenance) and these are fixable when both partners do the work. Our interpersonal relationships start forming as soon as we're born, and psychologists have studied how those early connections can set the stage for the other relationships we form later in life. The attachment theory argues that a strong emotional and physical bond to one primary caregiver in our first years of life, is critical to our development. Change the way you view every type of relationship you have ever had, and will ever have. Make healthier choices in choosing who to date, and discover a new dimension of connection, where relationships can become an institution for unlimited creativity, fulfilment, intimacy, and love. If you are in a relationship, this book will show you how to examine the unknown path that you'll travel with your spouse, and carefully evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of your relationship. If you are single, this book will help you to become clear and define what you want in your ideal future partner - and also what you don't want! The key ingredient to happy and fulfilled people is the quality of their intimate, social, family and professional relationships - nothing else in life comes even remotely close.

  the science of breakable things: The Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy 2023 R. F. Kuang, John Joseph Adams, 2023-10-17 “Short stories have to accomplish a nearly impossible magic trick: to introduce a world often much stranger than our own and make you care about it in a matter of pages,” writes R. F. Kuang in her introduction. “The most important part of this magic trick is just a willingness to get weird.” The stories in The Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy 2023 are brimming with bizarre and otherworldly premises. Women can’t lie or fall in love. Fathers feed their children ghost preserves. Souls chase one another through animal incarnations. Yet these stories are grounded deeply in our reality. Out of these stories’ weirdness emerges the cruelty of border enforcement, the horror of legislation restricting reproductive freedom, the frightening pace of AI. The result is a stunning, immersive, intensely felt experience, showing us less of what the world is, and more of what it could be.
