This book reconsiders traditional policy-analytic concepts, and re-develops and extends new ones, in a melded approach defined as systemic institutionalism. This links policy with governance and the state and suggests how real-world issues might be substantively addressed.
In the second illustrated Queen Sardine adventure, eight-year-old Ivy's in a fix, struggling to cope with Marcy, an overbearing new girl at school. Ivy's feline friend Queen Sardine, on the other hand, has a new cat on Kipper Street to contend with. While Queen Sardine's pride takes a battering from spoiled pedigree Princess Persia, Ivy goes too far and accidentally hurts Marcy's feelings. Can Ivy and Queen Sardine work together to sort out their new-girl problems?
Eight-year old Ivy isn't allowed a pet, so she gets the shock of her life when a strange cat splash-lands in her bath. The shocks get bigger when Ivy discovers that the cat can talk and likes to be called Queen Sardine! Queen Sardine tells Ivy that she needs help - there's a monster living in her home and she's scared to go back.
