6 Thursday June 17 2021 Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz SOUTHERN VIEW GREAT WINTER READS INSTORE NOW! NEW RELEASES How Stella Learned to Talk by Christina Hunge An incredible, revolutionary true story and surprisingly simple guide to teaching your dog to talk from speech-language pathologist Christina Hunger, who taught her dog, Stella, to communicate using simple paw-sized buttons associated with different words. When speech-language pathologist Christina Hunger first came home with her puppy, Stella, it didn’t take long for her to start drawing connections between her job and her new pet. During the day, she worked with toddlers with significant delays in language development and used Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) devices to help them communicate. At night, she wondered: If dogs can understand words we say to them, shouldn’t they be able to say words to us? Can dogs use AAC to communicate with humans? Christina decided to put this to the test with Stella and started using a paw-sized button, programmed with her voice to say the word ‘outside’ when clicked, whenever she took Stella out of the house. Stella now has a bank of more than thirty word buttons, and uses them either individually or together to create near-complete sentences. How Stella Learned to Talk is part memoir and part how-to guide. It chronicles the journey Christina and Stella have taken together from the day they met to the day Stella ‘spoke’ her first word, and the other breakthroughs they’ve had since. It also reveals the techniques Christina used to teach Stella, broken down into simple stages and actionable steps any dog owner can use to start communicating with their pets. My Amy by Tyler James Written with a searing honesty and published for the tenth anniversary of Amy Winehouse’s death, My Amy is an evocative portrait of unbreakable lifelong friendship – and a devastating study into fame, addiction and self-sabotage. Only one person knows what really happened to Amy, other than Amy herself. He is Tyler James, Amy’s best friend from the age of thirteen. They met at stage school as two insecure outsiders, formed an instant connection and lived together from their late teenage years right up until the day she died, aged just twenty-seven. Tyler was there by her side through it all. From their carefree early years touring together to the creation of the multiple Grammy-winning Back To Black, which she wrote on their kitchen floor. From her volatile marriage to Blake Fielder-Civil through her escalating addictions, self-harm and eating disorders as the toxic nature of fame warped Amy’s reality. For the last three years of her life, Tyler was with her every day when she’d beaten drugs and was close to beating alcoholism too. He also knew better than anyone the real Amy Winehouse who the tabloid-reading public rarely saw – the hilarious, uncompromising forceof-nature busy taking care of everyone else. We all think we know what happened to Amy Winehouse, but we don’t. This definitive insider’s story tells us all, finally, the truth.

Bob Dylan - No Direction Home by robert Shelton, foreword & afterword by elizabeth Thomson Robert Shelton met Bob Dylan when the young singer arrived in New York in 1961. He became Dylan’s friend, champion, and critic. His book, first published in 1986, was hailed as the definitive unauthorized biography of this moody, passionate genius. Shelton tells the intimate and first-hand story of Bob Dylan’s formative years in Greenwich Village NYC, and it is the only biography that has been written with his active cooperation. Dylan gave Shelton access to his parents, Abe and Beatty Zimmerman – whom no other journalist has ever interviewed; to his brother, David; to childhood friends from Hibbing; to fellow students and friends from Minneapolis; and to Suze Rotolo, the muse immortalized on the cover of Freewheelin’ , among others. Concluding Dylan’s story backstage during his triumphant 1978 world tour, No Direction Home took 20 years to complete and when it was finally published the book received widespread critical acclaim. Following his Nobel Prize for Literature Award in 2016, Dylan’s standing is higher than at any time since the 1960s and Shelton’s book is now seen as a classic. This new illustrated edition, published in the year of Dylan’s 80th birthday, includes key images of Dylan throughout his incredible, enduring career, making it a must for all Dylan fans.

SOUTHERN VIEW Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz Thursday June 17 2021 7 Siblings show how it’s done on the sports fields • By Fiona Ellis THE SPORTING success of Cashmere siblings on Saturday is proving that good things come in threes. Campbell siblings Lily, 11, Bodhi, 12, and Josh, 17, each won player of the day in their respective matches. Their father Mark Campbell said Josh’s game was the last of the day. “We were joking: ‘Wouldn’t it be funny if he got player of the day?’ and he did.” He was not surprised that each of the three won the award individually. “They’re all super hardworking and right into it. They’ll always be contenders.” However, he was surprised they all received the award on the same day, which had never happened before. Watching the successful day of sports felt “pretty good”, he said. His children had plenty of drive. “They’re very self motivated. Most kids get carted [to sports games] by their parents.” Lily was the first to take the award on the day, playing centre for Cashmere Netball Club’s J team. “She’s not very big, but she’s fast and nippy like an Energizer bunny.” Bodhi followed suit as centre defender in his football game for Cashmere Technical 12th grade gold. “He’s a very skilful player. He takes responsibility for shutting down other attacks.” They then watched Josh play centre back for the club’s 17th grade blue, and it was clear he was also playing a strong game. “[He] scored a thundering low knuckleball left-footed half volley from 18m. He is right-footed and has taught himself mastery of his left foot.” The element his children had in common was the ability to play a strong defence, he said. FIELD OF VICTORY: Campbell siblings (from left) Josh, Bodhi and Lily, were each awarded player of the day after their sports games on Saturday.
