			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you ever noticed that there are typically two names on the front of children&#8217;s books? The author and the illustrator. I&#8217;ve always found it a little bit unusual that the two entities can be separated considering how beautiful and accurate the illustration mirrors the words. </p>
<p>I started doing a bit of researching when I developed an interest in writing children&#8217;s books; why exactly were the two jobs so starkly separated? I suppose I never got the <em>why</em> of the matter, but I found that most publishing companies specifically warn authors that it&#8217;s less likely that their <a  href="http://bookadoodle.com/links/links.php?lid=2" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="top.window.status='DoubleDay'; return true" onmouseout="top.window.status=''; return true">book</a> will be published if they are unwilling to publish it without their own illustration. </p>
<p><em>What?!</em></p>
<p>That&#8217;s insane to me. I mean, short of the author submitting some really terrible art &#8211; and I don&#8217;t think any author would do that because it would sell the story short &#8211; why wouldn&#8217;t you give the author input on the visual aspect of the <a  href="http://bookadoodle.com/links/links.php?lid=2" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="top.window.status='DoubleDay'; return true" onmouseout="top.window.status=''; return true">book</a>?</p>
<p>It makes me wonder whether all of those beautiful books that I fell in love with as a child were an actual representation of how the author had envisioned the book? Do you think that Margaret Wise Brown (&#8220;<em>Goodnight Moon</em>&#8220;) is horrified by the images created by Clement Hurd? That book stands out so starkly in my mind for it&#8217;s beautiful pictures, but I can barely recall the exact words. And it&#8217;s not because it&#8217;s not a beautifully written story; just, to me, the images represented the story so well that my mind dwells upon the visual.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s sad to think a book has less of a chance of being published if the author refuses to outsource the illustrations. I hope that there are some publishers out there that understand the important connection between the two and <strong>celebrate</strong> author/illustrators everywhere.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>“Oh, The Places You’ll Go”, is a journey of a boy who is referred to as ‘you’, who embarks on the way to find his place in the world. The reader is able to identify with the character as he goes along his journey.<br />
	The journey when life begins can be one full of challenges and decisions. This <a  href="http://bookadoodle.com/links/links.php?lid=2" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="top.window.status='DoubleDay'; return true" onmouseout="top.window.status=''; return true">book</a> through its colourful illustrations comes to life and makes the reader think of their own place in their own life. The line, “Will you succeed? Yes, you will indeed (98.3/4% guaranteed.) is one that stands out for me. It reminds me every time I read this <a  href="http://bookadoodle.com/links/links.php?lid=2" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="top.window.status='DoubleDay'; return true" onmouseout="top.window.status=''; return true">book</a>, that success is attainable no matter what the challenge.<br />
	In the book, “you” will come to a place where “you” will have two paths to take, which one will “you” take? Then “you” comes to a waiting place, here everyone is waiting either for a bus or a phone call. The waiting will end and “you” will get that bus or that call.<br />
	The book goes on to end on a happy, open ended note which leaves the reader feeling positive and uplifted.  Although published in the year 1990, “Oh, the Places You’ll Go” grosses high sales in the United States and Canada every year during graduation season as college and high school students embark on their journey in real world. It’s a meaningful read for all and a must read for anyone looking for a positive outlook on life.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You can motivate people with the use of motivational quotes.  These quotes help to encourage your friends or people who are feeling low.  These quotes can be from your favorite star, historical figure, or even from the persons you know- the main thing is that they give people the strength to move forward.</p>
<p>Motivational quotes are also used to forward to our buddies in form of text messages or cards.  There are also many daily calendars available in the market, that contain these motivational quotations for everyday.  These calendars help you in getting something good to read each day and thus help in updating your life in a good manner.</p>
<p>These quotes help you to become confident if you are feeling sad or dull.</p>
<p>Some good motivational quotes can be &#8220;I&#8217;m trying to do the best I can. I&#8217;m not concerned with tomorrow, but with what goes on today&#8221;, &#8220;It is courage, courage, courage, that raises the blood of life to crimson splendor. Live bravely and present a brave front to adversity&#8221;, or &#8220;The pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; the optimist, the opportunity in every difficulty&#8221;.</p>
<p>These motivational sayings can be used at events organized in schools or colleges.  You can make your speech impressive with the use of these sayings and can also see them across a wall plaque.  Lots of politicians use them while delivering their speech, to make their speech sound more aggressive, and inspiring.</p>
<p>Why are these sayings important?</p>
<p>Victory is not permanent.  It is a journey, and you have to keep progressing.  You can never get success if you surrender yourself to the difficulties.  But sometimes, when situations get out of hand, a person might feel that he is useless.  In these situations, motivational quotes help a lot in motivating them, as you can say these quotes to them so that they can get motivated.</p>
<p>These quotes not only give strength to your friends, but your friendship can also get stronger if you use these good quotes on your buddies.  You can write motivational quotes and text them to your buddies each day.  After getting these daily messages from you, they will feel important in your life and get to know that they are remembered each day.</p>
<p>If you want to change your life, start using these sayings.  These motivational quotes can update your life. </p>
