Description

For as long as four-time Olympic gold medalist Sanya Richards-Ross can remember, life has been measured in seconds-the fewer, the better.

The Jamaican-American sprinter has been a star track and field athlete since she first began racing, ranking No. 1 in the world and bringing home Olympic and World Championship accolades. A role model for runners around the world, Sanya's incredible success is matched only by her spirit both on and off the track.

From her early days running in Jamaica to her final race, Sanya shares the importance of determination, courage and faith. She uses the 4 Ps-push, pace, position and poise-a model created by her coach, Clyde Hart, to approach and tackle every obstacle. In her book, Sanya reveals how these strategies have helped her and will help kids learn how to run their best race in life.

Run with Me is Sanya's story-her wins and her losses-chronicling her unique triumphs and trials with fame, family and faith. Written purposely for the 8-12 audience, this book will inspire kids to pursue their dreams at full speed.

Run With Me has a beautiful embossed cover.

Bibliography
Within small markets for television like Jamaica, where sustaining a show on air is affected by financial and other challenges, remaining on air for a long time becomes a key marker of a television programmes success. Still on Air documents the historical, production and broadcast experiences of some of Jamaicas long-running television shows. Based on interviews with over one hundred television professionals as well as archival searches of television-related content spanning over fifty years, the book provides details on over three hundred programmes produced and aired on free-to-air television stations in the island.

Yvette J. Rowe and Livingston A. White present a framework of seven factors for producing television for small markets and suggest ways in which local television producers can create successful television programmes in limited-resource environments. After exploring other shows with potential for being long-running productions, the authors end discuss trends in television production as well as some possibilities and recommendations that have implications for how television shows are produced in the future.

Still on Air is an important work as it chronicles an aspect of the Jamaican television industry that has never before been given such detailed attention. The experiences are applicable to television producers working in small media markets and the authors offer insight on what is required to produce television programming that is culturally sensitive, affordable and responsive to television audiences.
