no ordinary horse. He was bigger and more muscled than racehorses his age, and after a slow start and lots of training, he went on to compete for the biggest prize in racing - the Triple Crown. This is also the story of the one person who helped Secretariat the most - feeding him grain, bathing him, and chatting with him at dawn each day - his groom, Edward "Shorty" Sweat.

athlete. Yet, his failure brought him to the realization that in truth, his dream wasn't to be a pro hockey player. His dream was to be his father, Gordie Howe. To be amazing at something, but humble and gracious. To be courageous, and stand up for the little guy. To be a hero. You don't need to be a hockey player to do that. What he learned was that it is a waste of time wishing you were like someone else. We need to identify and embrace our gifts. Gordie Howe may have been the greatest player in the history of hockey, but greatness was never defined by goals or assists in the Howe household. Greatness meant being the best person you could be, not the best player on the ice. Bestseller. 2017.By Kim Ziervogel. 2007

Aujourd'hui, il ne souffre plus du diabète.

a decade remained before the Stanley Cup would become the sole property of the NHL. In this era, it was a challenge cup, and it seemed as though every Canadian town--big or small--had a fair shot at the big prize. In these pre-NHL days, four teams from the Maritimes took up the challenge, competing for what was, even then, hockey's biggest prize. The 1900 Halifax Crescents club was followed in 1906 by the New Glasgow Cubs, in 1912 by the Moncton Victorias, and in 1913 by the Sydney Millionaires. 2012.By Pascal De Sutter, Valérie Doyen. 2014

" Êtes-vous conscient qu'en ce moment même vous ratez l'essentiel de ce qui se passe autour de vous, là, sous…
votre nez ? Pour vous en convaincre et redécouvrir la magie du monde, il suffit d'appliquer la méthode proposée par Alexandra Horowitz : arpenter le pavé celui de New York en l'occurrence en compagnie d'un spécialiste d'un domaine particulier, et voir à travers ses yeux des facettes inédites du quotidien. Partagez ainsi l'affût de ce spécialiste de la biodiversité, pour croiser les ratons laveurs et les coyotes (!) qui ont envahi la ville. Avec ce géologue, observez les traces des dernières glaciations dans les schistes de Central Park. Suivez les premiers pas du fils de l'auteure et repérez ces formes et ces couleurs que nous avons cessé de voir. Partez à la reconquête de vos sens guidés par cet aveugle, ce médecin, cet acousticien, etc. À la façon d'un Jean Claude Ameisen, Alexandra Horowitz profite de ces balades buissonnières pour décortiquer les mécanismes de la perception et de lattention celle qui nous fait si souvent défaut en exploitant des expériences troublantes de psychologie et les derniers résultats des neurosciences. Poète, savante et aventurière urbaine, elle confirme son statut d'écrivain à suivre attentivement. " -- 4e de couv.
