Remember: "Sometimes conflicts can actually create opportunities for us to make the world a better place." ?????? #Annick

kspenmoll 👏❤ thanks for the reminder! 7y
Gezemice Send this to my previous work place, please. They were so conflict avoidant that you had to be 100% vigilant about always smiling and never phrasing anything in a way that might sound as blame. It is exhausting and it results in passivity and simerring resentment. It was soul-killing. (edited) 7y

Absolutely loved this book about violinist Joshua Bell as a boy! Lovely lighthearted illustrations and a necessary message about the power of music and perseverance. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #Annick #March2017 #NetGalley

18-year-old Ruth was one of the 937 German Jews aboard the SS St. Louis, a ship full of refugees that was turned back by Cuba in 1939. 254 were killed in the Holocaust after returning to Europe. Ruth and her family eventually found passage to the US. #diversereads #refugees #NaziGermany #WWII #Annick #April2017

A powerful introduction to a beautifully illustrated nonfiction book aimed at children and young adults that features the stories of five young boat refugees from Nazi Germany, Vietnam, Cuba, Afghanistan, and Ivory Coast who found refuge elsewhere. #Annick #NetGalley #April2017
