This is the story of how an American lawyer caused a revolution in the way wines around the globe are made, sold, and talked about. Parker's influential newsletter, The Wine Advocate, exerts the single most significant influence on consumers' wine-buying habits and trends, and impacts the way wine is made in every wine-producing country in the world. To his fans, Parker is part enthusiastic sensualist and part consumer crusader. To his enemies, he is a self-appointed wine judge bent on reducing the meaning of wine to a two-digit number. The man who now rules the world of wine has been the focus of both adulation and death threats. He rose to his pinnacle of power by means of the traditional American virtues of hard work, determination, and integrity--coupled with an unshakeable ego and a maniacal obsession with a beverage that aspires to a seductive art form.--From publisher description

This teacher's guide is composed of reading readiness activities for kindergarteners designed to: (1) lead from teacher-directed instruction toward independent learning and reinforcement activities; (2) help the teacher build on each child's previous background while teaching new learning strategies; and (3) emphasize six readiness areas (language, cognition, comprehension, perception, motor skills, and attitude). The guide contains 10 units with 5-7 lessons in each. Objectives, resource materials, and activities for the whole class, more advanced activities for children who are ready, and activities for children who need additional help are given for each lesson. The major skills emphasized include: oral language development, language concepts, and motor skills (left to right progression), concept development (sequencing), critical thinking, comprehension, visual skills (matching), auditory skills (listening, discrimination, identification), letter name knowledge, and attitudes toward books and reading. Content areas focus on feelings, families, farms, supermarkets, foods, pets, homes, community workers, weather, and construction. Although the guide is designed to be used as the first level in Macmillan's Reading Readiness Program with related program texts, many of the activities employ teacher-made or teacher-collected materials.
