The Electric Woman: A Memoir in Death-Defying Acts , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 810min
The Electric Woman is Tessa Fontaine's astonishing audiobook memoir about a life-affirming journey of loss and self-discovery. Narrated by the author, this audiobook recounts Tessa's life on the road with the last traveling American sideshow and her relationship with an adventurous, spirited mother. Turns out, one lesson applies to living through illness, keeping the show on the road, letting go of the person you love most, and eating fire: The trick is there is no trick. You eat fire by eating fire. Two journeys - a daughter’s and a mother’s - bear witness to this lesson in The Electric Woman. For three years Tessa Fontaine lived in a constant state of emergency as her mother battled stroke after stroke. But hospitals, wheelchairs, and loss of language couldn’t hold her mother back; she and her husband would see Italy together, come what may. Thus Fontaine became free to follow her own piper, a literal giant inviting her to “come play” in the World of Wonders, America’s last traveling sideshow. How could she resist? Transformed into an escape artist, a snake charmer, and a high-voltage Electra, Fontaine witnessed the marvels of carnival life: intense camaraderie and heartbreak, the guilty thrill of hard-earned cash exchanged for a peek into the impossible, and, most marvelous of all, the stories carnival folks tell about themselves. Through these, Fontaine trained her body to ignore fear and learned how to keep her heart open in the face of loss. A story for anyone who has ever imagined running away with the circus, wanted to be someone else, or wanted a loved one to live forever, The Electric Woman is ultimately about death-defying acts of all kinds, especially that ever constant: good old-fashioned unconditional love. ungekürzt.

They’re especially good for nursing home residents or people who use wheelchairs, as they’re tall enough to stand beside someone in a chair. These dogs may also find “work” as your family watchdog, as they have superior hearing and a loud bark. However, if you don’t have work for your Great Pyrenees, regular obedience training and lots of playtime will still give your dog the job fulfillment he craves.The Complete Guide to the Great Pyrenees will answer all your basic questions including:Is a Great Pyrenees the right dog for me?I brought my Great Pyrenees home.

Service Dog: Training Your Own Service Dog: Clear Step by Step Instructions to Get You Started , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 200min
Are you suffering from disabilities that make performing daily tasks a struggle?Do you wish you felt more freedom and empowerment to do the things you love?I know I was. Hi, my name’s Jenna. And for years, I let my disability stop me from living a life I really loved and that I knew I was capable of living. My disability left me in a state of feeling powerless, alone, and afraid. I knew there had to be a way to improve my life experience in a myriad of ways, and among other methods, getting and training a service dog has been one of the most significant sources of help upon my life in more ways than I can count. Ever since then, I’ve been passionate about sharing this knowledge with others so that they can be empowered in a similar way that I was.Many people with disabilities can benefit from service dogs and not just those in wheelchairs. If you have diabetes, epilepsy, cystic fibrosis, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, self-harm tendencies, or any number of other disabilities, a service dog may help you. However, in America, the standard cost of a fully trained service dog is 25 grand. This is more than many people can afford, especially when a large portion of their income is already going to paying medical bills. But, the good news is that you can fully train your own service dog. You might even find that, by training your own puppy, rather than having a stranger board and train it until it's an adult, you, and your puppy develop a closer bond that enables him to assist you better.There is a lot of confusion on how to train service dogs, the legalities, which breeds are best, and more. In this audiobook, you will find answers to all of these questions and more. Not only are the United States of America’s laws regarding service dogs explained, but also the United Kingdom’s laws are explained as well, among many other useful things.In this audiobook, you will find:A detailed ungekürzt.

All You Need to Know About Container Gardening: Gardening, Indoor, Outdoor Gardening, Greenhouse , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 98min
Container gardening is the procedure of growing plants solely in planters and containers (pots). Unlike the traditional method of growing plants in the ground, container gardens are displayed throughout a home, office, patio, or terrace. You can grow almost anything in a container. Container gardening is the answer for most people who live in busy cities or those who don't have a big back yard. You can put a container anywhere. And because it's easy, just about anyone can grow flowers and vegetables. You may not have the acreage for flower gardening or vegetable gardening, but you can grow fresh vegetables, flowers, or herbs by growing plants in pots. So, whether you live on a large parcel of land, a townhouse, or an apartment building, you can plant a garden in a container. The creativity and possibilities for container gardening are endless because so many plants grow well in pots. By using your imagination, you can find interesting and unique ways to grow and display just about any plant. By rearranging them in various ways, you can also create an ambiance appealing to the eye and a fragrant scent to make your neighbors envious. Container gardening is so convenient and can be much easier to manage than a traditional garden. Handicapped individuals can use container gardening and have their plants located in positions that are easy for them to access. This is something that just isn't always achievable with traditional gardening. People who are bound to wheelchairs can have their plants in pots on a table where they can easily access them. Elderly people who still enjoy gardening but can no longer manage a traditional garden can easily manage a garden that is broken up into individual pots and tubs so they can again enjoy their love of gardening. Container gardening is also a great way to teach children how to grow and care for plants. Traditional gardening is much more involved, and children can become bored and lose int ungekürzt.

The Glass Axe , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 20min
A king and queen who have long had everything they desire except a child, are finally graced with one but are immediately faced with tragedy. The queen dies on the day after her son is born, but not before she warns her husband to never let their son's feet touch the ground or else he will be immediately taken by an evil fairy. As he grew, everyone was careful to keep him from touching the ground - using wheelchairs, litters, and even horses, which he especially excelled at. One day when he was out riding, his saddle broke and he fell to the ground and immediately vanished. Under the control of the evil fairy, he is told he must obey her every command or else he will be severely punished. Her first order was for him to cut down all the trees in a forest using a glass axe - and to NOT speak to a girl he might encounter on his way. Of course, the glass axe shattered at its first contact with the tree. Scared and hopeless, he curls up and falls asleep, only to be woken by the same girl he had been warned against. The girl is also imprisoned by the fairy, who is also her mother, and she offers to help the prince do whatever is asked of him, as long as he promised to help her in return. When the evil fairy discovers the two are helping one another, she is outraged and decides to take her anger out on both of them. The two are then left to try to escape and outwit the evil fairy on their quest to be free. Andrew Lang (1844-1912) was a Scottish writer who collected fairy and folk tales from various cultures and put them together in twelve volumes of tales. He was noted for taking the tales from as many original sources as possible, keeping the fairy tales close to their intended meanings. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tavia Gilbert.
