A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! Jacqueline Woodson's first
middle-grade novel since National Book Award winner Brown Girl
Dreaming celebrates the healing that can occur when a group of
students share their stories. It all starts when six kids have to
meet for a weekly chat--by themselves, with no adults to listen in.
There, in the room they soon dub the ARTT Room (short for "A Room
to Talk"), they discover it's safe to talk about what's bothering
them--everything from Esteban's father's deportation and Haley's
father's incarceration to Amari's fears of racial profiling and
Ashton's adjustment to his changing family fortunes. When the six
are together, they can express the feelings and fears they have to
hide from the rest of the world. And together, they can grow braver
and more ready for the rest of their lives.
The Secret Life of Birds is a collection of delightful stories and
engaging facts, which imparts a love of birds and of nature on the
next generation, inspiring them to look after the world around
them. Did you know that birds navigate by invisible pathways in the
sky, that they can call to each other in thousands of different
ways and they can be as big as a car or as small as a little
finger? Let much-travelled Speedy the Swift guide you through this
beautiful first guide to birdlife around the globe. Learn about
nest-building and bird babies, feathers and beaks, flying journeys,
bird calls, really unusual-looking birds, and ways to spot birds
and help them near where you live. Read some beautiful bird
folklore stories from around the planet, too. Speedy has learnt
much on her travels and she will be a great guide for young
readers, perhaps inspiring them to develop a lifelong love of
birds. Following on from The Secret of Trees and The Secret Life of
Bees, Birds is the next book in the series. Sumptuous and detailed
illustrations have pride of place in this magical book that mixes
natural history with a splash of fantasy, creating a book to be
pored over time and again.

THE ULTIMATE SELF-CARE BOOK FOR TEENAGE GIRLS Face up to the world
with confidence and higher self-esteem Growing up has become
faster, more furious and the pressures more intense. Anxiety and
panic have reached epidemic proportions. A third of teenage girls
will suffer from depression. Factor in a rise in self-harm and
eating disorders and the mental health stats become alarming. It's
time to equip young women with the means to fight back. A Girl's
Guide to Being Fearless unlocks self-esteem, confidence, wellbeing,
resilience and offers an antidote to an overwhelming world of
altered photos, filters, and fillers. A Girl's Guide helps parents,
girls, and teachers understand that wellbeing is an inside job. As
an essential book for our time, this guide reflects the challenging
world facing teens. The authors suggest there is little to be
gained by asking girls to stop taking selfies or using Instagram
filters, because these habits are ingrained in teenage culture.
Instead, guidance is provided on how girls can take action to
increase their confidence and love the skin they are in. Moreover,
it's about learning to be a class act in person and online.
Practical exercises and doable ideas to inspire young women
Encouragement to eliminate self-limiting beliefs Guidance for girls
on lifting themselves and others up Tips for showing greater
confidence and being excited about the future Suggestions for how
to live your best life Keep calm and read A Girl's Guide to Being
Fearless, a gathering of life's cheat codes; all simple, do-able
and hugely entertaining. Learn how to show anxiety the door and let
in more of the good stuff. This book will help you find your Brave.
Whisper it quietly, but it might even change your life.
The ninth book in the bestselling series, from the brilliantly

bully to stay out of trouble. 4. Don't let Mum and Dad write
ANYTHING in your school planner. 5. Don't let your grumpy sister
