Life is better when you're a triathlete. That is what author and triathlete Jef Mallett believes, and millions of triathletes around the world agree. Trizophrenia: Inside the Minds of the Triathlete, by nationally syndicated illustrator and veteran triathlete Jef Mallett, offers up the first exploration of the triathlon lifestyle. With the same humor and insight readers love in his "Frazz" comic strip, Mallett delves into the intoxicating subculture of the sport that is three sports. Mallett unveils the triathlete's obsessive-compulsive need for the rituals of the sport: eat, swim, eat, work, eat, ride, eat, work, eat, run, eat, go to bed early. Get up at dawn and do it all over again. Packed with illustrations that bring to life the countless conundrums a triathlete embraces every day, Mallett's light-hearted declaration of love for his sport will convince anyone that life is more worth living when you're a triathlete.

Ukuleles are a beautiful addition to elementary music classrooms. By playing ukuleles, students learn about chord progressions, develop vocabulary, and accompany vocal and instrumental melodies. The ukulele's timbre supports the child's voice, often allowing students to hear and sing harmony more accurately with ukulele accompaniment. Such experiences promote independent musicianship; many students purchase their own ukulele and enjoy playing at home, even beyond their elementary years.As with recorder instruction, we believe ukuleles should be integrated with other classroom instruments, and in this book, you find orchestrations with barred instruments, unpitched percussion, and recorder. Some lessons include creative movement and improvisation. Keep in mind these lessons may span several class sessions.As music teachers, we strive to be lifelong learners. We encourage you to branch out, pick up a uke, and STRUM IT UP!
