內容簡介

Harry Houdini was a great escape artist, but perhaps his greatest trick was becoming the famous magician that we have come to know. As a child, Houdini worked hard—and even quit school—to help support his family. But his dream always was to become a great magician and performer. He practiced day and night, thinking up new tricks and more and more dangerous stunts. His intense ambition paid off, and soon Harry Houdini became known worldwide! This kid-appealing Step 3 traces Houdini's life from his poor beginnings to his eventual success as the most famous mystical magician and escape artist of all time.

作者簡介

Monica Kulling was born in Vancouver, British Columbia. When she was seven, she moved with her family to her father's boyhood home in Switzerland. Here Monica continued with grade one, the big difference being she didn't understand a word anyone was saying!

The big adventure lasted only a year. Monica and her family moved back to British Columbia to live in the small town of Chilliwack in the heart of the Fraser Valley. Monica's parents operated a delicatessen, where Monica and her four siblings worked, each in their turn.

Monica was now in grade two and speaking English all the time, which suited her better. She wasn't the kind of girl who always had her nose in a book or kept a diary of all the great girl things she was doing, and she never won a spelling bee!

Monica was an outdoor girl. She loved recess and playing marbles or dodge ball, red rover or baseball. After school, Monica climbed trees, played baseball even in the rain, and rode her bike all over town. On weekends, she took her younger sister and brother to the movies.

Monica loved comic books. They gave her a chance to practice her reading! Nancy and Sluggo and the Superheroes were special favourites.

Monica lived the life of a free-range kid. She had plenty of time to go where she wanted, to sit under a tree and daydream, and to have adventures.

Monica still didn't read much, even in high school. She did love the illustrated classic comic books and had the entire collection of almost 200. These comics gave her an intimate knowledge of the great works of literature in the English language.

If Monica didn't especially like to read or write, how did she get started as a writer? She loved music, especially the music of the sixties and the lyrics of poets like Paul Simon and Joni Mitchell. When she was sixteen, Monica heard the words of Paul Simon in his song "The Boxer" and those of Joni Mitchell in her song "Both Sides Now," and she was blown away.

Monica was glued to the radio and records, going over the poetry of the lyrics in her mind. She had long ago put away comic books and taken up the guitar. She soon became hooked on the passion and poetry of the wonderful song writers of the day--Leonard Cohen, Neil Young, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Laura Nyro, and many more. Monica was also studying poetry in school and was soon reading the great poets, because she wanted to, not because she had to.

Monica started to write her own poems and, after high school, studied creative writing at the University of Victoria. In her final year, she took a course in children's literature. She loved it so much, she began to write for children. In 1992, she published her first book, a picture book about an orange cat, called I Hate You, Marmalade!

Monica Kulling lives in Toronto, Ontario.

精彩書評

"Harry Houdini was the stage name of Ehrich Weiss, a Hungarian Jewish immigrant who became world famous for his showmanship as an escape artist. It wasn't easy. Harry practiced thousands of hours and read thousands of books about magic and illusion. His tricks--such as the disappearing elephant, and escaping from handcuffs, ropes, and straight jackets--amazed audiences in Europe and America. His success was due to hard work, perseverance, and skill, which serve as a good example today. This early reader will also appeal to older kids who are having difficulty developing their reading skills."
--Children's Literature

質量還行吧東西很好正版的還行吧，養興趣 　　恩格斯說“興趣與愛好是最好的老師”。為瞭使初學者能盡快地掌握計算機知識,進入計算機的應用領域,在課程講授過程中,要特彆注意培養學生的學習興趣。初接觸計算機時,很多學生感到新奇、好玩,這不能說是興趣,隻是一種好奇。隨著課程的不斷深入,大量的規則、定義、要求和機械的格式齣現,很容易使一部分(甚至是大部分)學生産生枯燥無味的感覺。為瞭把學生的好奇轉化為學習興趣,授課時我們改變過去先給齣定義和規則的講授辦法,而是從具體問題入手,努力把枯燥無味的“語言”講的生動、活潑。 　　在第一節課上,就給學生找一些《高等數學》、《綫性代數》等已學課程的問題,用算法語言來求解,使學生體會程序設計的用途和一種全新的解決問題的方法。在課程的進行中,引導學生學一種算法,就嘗試在同行課程中應用。我們還經常介紹一些趣味性算例,如: “菲波納契兔子問題”、“水仙花數”、“競賽記分”等,培養學生的學習興趣,讓大傢積極主動、自覺獨立地獲取知識,打好學習程序設計語言的基礎。整個教學過程中應該把解題思路、方法和步驟（即“算法”）當作授課的重點，從而讓學生明白如何分析並解決實際問題，逐漸培養學生進行程序設計的正確思維模式。 　　循序漸進 　　絕大部分學生是第一次接受計算機語言,“通俗性、可接受性”的教學原則同樣適閤於這門課的教學。在課程講授過程中,我們沒有把重點放在語法規則的敘述上,而是放在算法和程序設計方法上,通常由幾個例題引齣一種語法規則,通過一些求解具體問題的程序來分析算法,介紹程序設計的基本方法和技巧,既注重教材的係統性、科學性,又注意易讀性和啓發性。從最簡單的問題入手,一開始就介紹程序,要求學生編寫程序,通過反復編寫、運行程序來掌握語言的規定和程序設計的方法。同一個語法規則、同一種算法,在選擇例題時也是由簡到難,逐步呈現給學生。在學習上不要求學生死記語法規則,而是要求學生能把各個孤立的語句組織成一個有機的、好的程序。注意培養學生良好的編程風格,讓學生在編製程序過程中不斷總結、鞏固,達到學會方法、記住語法規則,提高設計技巧的目的。 《C語言程序設計》是我係各專業的必修課程，也是我校非計算機專業開設的程序設計課程之一。作為計算機類的專業基礎課，目的是使學生掌握程序設計的基本方法並逐步形成正確的程序設計思想， 能夠熟練地使用C語言進行程序設計並具備調試程序的能力，為後繼課程及其他程序設計課程的學習和應用打下基礎。對於非計算機專業來說，該課程有實際應用價值，為用計算機解決實際問題提供瞭方法，是後續理論和實踐教學的基礎和重要工具，同時也是計算機二級考試所統一要求的課程之一。 　　筆者多年來為從事高級語言程序設計教學與實習，結閤國內外優秀編程語言的教學方法和模式，不斷地總結和積纍經驗並運用於教學實踐之中，取得瞭較好的教學效果，有助於學生在有限的教學時間內，以最快最簡單易懂的方式，紮實地掌握Ｃ語言的內容，並能運用自如
