Section two contains concept games and development motor movements activities and ideas that will help develop the physical process needed in learning language.

      Welshman Huw Lloyd Jones' life seems he teaches Creative Writing at a charming college in the American South, and is happy with Miranda, his beautiful wife. But then he discovers that his despotic boss, Frida Shamburger, has it in for him, and Miranda's love is more tenuous than he supposed. Huw must fight to save his job and marriage. But can a middle-aged white man survive in the woke jungle of academia? And with a manipulative psychiatrist and a women's empowerment guru encouraging Miranda to be more independent, can the couple's love prevail? With his debut novel, Powell proves himself a worthy successor to the masters of classic British satire. Besides being laugh-out-loud funny, it also gives the thoughtful reader much to ponder on the roles of freedom and love in the politically correct world, where speech, thought, and even the emotions are under constant surveillance - and the penalty for transgressions may be the summary loss of career, friends, love, or indeed a sanction more extreme still. A bold and funny satire on campus life and the perils of modern day cancel culture.
