No matter how you try to hide it, the truth will always come out .
. . After a plane crash sees a group of seven teens washed up on a
desert island, their first thought is survival. But a terrible
secret from a party the night before has followed them ashore.
Facing deadly threats and the fear of being stranded forever, they
quickly discover that being the most popular kid in High School
doesn't help when you're fighting to stay alive. As the island
deals each of them a dangerous blow, it's clear that someone is
looking for justice. Now survival depends on facing the truth about
that party: who was hurt that night, and who let it happen? From
multi-award-winning author and gender equality activist, Laura
Bates, this thought-provoking drama will start an important
conversation and keep you guessing to the end. Praise for The
Trial: 'While the climactic "trial" provides a satisfying political
edge, the most gripping passages involve the simple struggle for
survival.' - Financial Times 'Laura Bates is one of the most
important feminist voices we have and The Trial is engaging and
clever, thought-provoking and thrilling. I inhaled it in one
sitting.' - Louise O'Neill, author of Asking For It 'A book that
teens and young adults should be adding to their contemporary
mystery and feminist reading lists' - Culture Fly 'Laura Bates has
written another unputdownable (I mean this, I had to give up on
getting anything done to consume this story) novel, which as you
can imagine asks some important questions too.'- Lucy-Anne Holmes,
editor Women on Top of the World

An authoritative guide to understanding and navigating gender identity
from an acclaimed expert on the mental health of transgender and gender
diverse youth.
Kids today are more gender fluent and expansive than ever before. In
America, around two percent of teenagers (over 700,000) openly identify
as transgender. As it becomes increasingly common for us to encounter
and know transgender kids, as well as kids with more expansive notions
of gender than past generations, it is vital that we have the tools we
need in order to truly see and support them.
Free to Be is an authoritative deep dive by internationally renowned
child and adolescent psychiatrist Dr. Jack Turban into the science,
medicine, and politics of gender identity. You will be immersed in the
lives of three trans and gender diverse youth--Meredith, Kyle, and
Sam--as they navigate their gender identities, make decisions around
gender-affirming medical and psychological care, and confront an
overwhelming political and social terrain.
By combining the latest scientific research, stories of transgender
children, and the intricacies of today's political gender wars, Free to
Be gives you the tools to help the kids in your life navigate the
complexity of gender identity, while also coming to better understand
what the nuances of gender mean to yourself and society at large.
Health, Wellness, and Physical Fitness is designed to teach
students everything they need to know to make informed decisions
for a lifetime of wellness. Aligned to Common Core State Standards,
the activities in this workbook teach students about heredity,
exercise, and nutrition, as well as tobacco, illegal drugs, mental
health, and becoming a wise consumer. Self-assessments, real-world
situations, games, puzzles, and quizzes reinforce these important
lessons while also building strong, independent learners.
