The Internet has definitely changed the way people look lor jobs and send their resumes. In the past, job seekers waited for the Sunday edition of their local newspapers, scoured the classified ads, and then sent off handsome print copies of their resumes.

Better English has not been natural focus for work with young people. Some topics just seem to belong to youth work: drugs, health, sex, relationships. But helping young people to improve their fluency and word power, develop accuracy and subtlety in expression, and heighten their understanding of everyday language, are seldom addressed directly.
Littlest One is a tiny creature slowly learning her job of giving dreams to humans. Each night she and her teacher, Thin Elderly, visit an old woman’s home where she softly touches beloved objects, gathering happy memories, and drops of old scents and sounds. Littlest One pieces these bits together and presents them to her sleeping human in the form of pleasant dreams. But the dreaded Sinisteeds, dark fearsome creatures that plague their victims with nightmares, are always at work against the dreamgivers. When the old woman takes in John, an angry foster child with a troubled past, the Sinisteeds go after him with their horrifying nightmares.
