MsLeah8417

If I can perfectly align the interests of my company with the interests of top officials in the U.S. government— not the interests of the country, but the interests of the people in charge of the country— then the United States will secure my needs.

The United Fruit Company is the principal enemy of progress in Guatemala, of its democracy, and of every effort at its economic liberation.

quote
MsLeah8417

To protect its authority [United Fruit] had recourse to every method: political intervention, economic compulsion, contractural imposition, bribery, [and] tedious propaganda, as suited its purposes of domination.

quote
MsLeah8417

“A company, like a nation, cannot survive without its mythology. All the achievements of the Company were made at the expense of the impoverishment of the country and by acquisitive practices.

Creature of Habit by Jennifer E. Smith captures the story of Creature and his life on his island. It displays all of Creature's favorite things to do and how he likes to do it in a certain way, until one day when a small creature comes to the island. This book takes you on the journey of big Creature and small Creature as they learn to understand each other.

Nominated for the 2024 #WCCPBA The creature of habit will be fun to explore with the kids. I may ask them to draw the 2 characters based on their description before reading. It will be fun to hear them share their habits. I wonder how many will admit they only eat chicken nuggets and macaroni? #endpapers

bthegood Love the activity idea for your students - and I think you might be right about nuggets and mac/cheese 😂 2y
mandarchy @bthegood I love having the students predraw before a read. It gets them focused after coming into the library. I never get to give pop quizzes and it feels like one. 2y
bthegood @mandarchy 👍 🙂 2y

Need a good laugh? Start by pronouncing it bənänä instead of bənănə. Or... or instead of piränə (I've never heard it pronounced with an ñ) oh never mind! Just make them rhyme. You will not be disappointed. TW: There will be butts.
