A worried little girl's imagination runs wild when her cat Wilhelmina goes missing.

Every year, thousands of young men and women descend on America's largest cities to make it big in the world of modeling. Unfortunately, most of them end up disappointed because they lack the knowledge they need to work in this exciting industry. A few do make it, though, and you can be one of those who do. In The Wilhelmina Guide to Modeling, Natasha Esch reveals all her secrets to give you the edge you need. In this informative and illustrated manual, you'll learn about: How to get started and find the right agency. The modeling opportunities in domestic and foreign markets, including new opportunities in the plus-size, male, and ethnic segments. The people who make it happen, including interviews with models, photographers, and stylists. And much, much more.

A little girl cautioned never to go into the jungle, wanders in deeper and deeper while searching for flowers --and is suddenly confronted by the gunniwolf.

Wilhelmina Goes Wandering is based on the true story of a runaway cow in Connecticut. For five months in 2011, the 800-pound Black Angus was seen around Milford, Orange, and New Haven, hanging out and traveling with a herd of deer. When she is eventually captured and relocated to an animal sanctuary in Oxford, Wilhelmina finds that her urge for adventures has been curbed by knowing she is finally accepted and loved by her new farmer friend Betty. Five- to nine-year-old readers (grownups, too ) will fall in love with Wilhelmina and her animal and human friends, brought to colorful life in the book's beautiful original illustrations.

From the author of Homeland Elegies and Pulitzer Prize winner Disgraced, a stirring and explosive novel about an American Muslim family in Wisconsin struggling with faith and belonging in the pre-9/11 world. Hayat Shah is a young American in love for the first time. His normal life of school, baseball, and video games had previously been distinguished only by his Pakistani heritage and by the frequent chill between his parents, who fight over things he is too young to understand. Then Mina arrives, and everything changes. American Dervish is a brilliantly written, nuanced, and emotionally forceful look inside the interplay of religion and modern life.

This collection of articles was written for the History of Royal Women website during the year 2020 to celebrate 140 years since the birth of Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands. You'll find that the articles are not listed chronologically by year, but rather by day and month as the events happened over the years. This collection is in no way meant to be a full biography of Queen Wilhelmina but will hopefully give you a glimpse into her personal life nevertheless. She was an extraordinary woman, born under extraordinary circumstances, shaped by the world she lived in.

Intended for scholars and professionals interested in cross- and multicultural research into the mechanisms of the social influnce process.
