If you are a male approaching adulthood, you might be wondering: Are you a boy or a man?

You might even hear the question coming from parents, mentors, your boss or girlfriend. Asking the question is not a bad thing; it could push you to envision your potential and become a better person.

Perhaps you are a teacher, parent or counselor struggling to help someone determine what stage they are at in life. They need help and guidance, but there just aren't many resources out there that spell out the difference.

In this book, you'll consider 75 key words that illustrate the gap. Delve into issues such as trust, truth and pride. You'll examine what it means to be an adult in ways you never did before.

It's also important to understand the myths that revolve around manhood. You don't have to be violent, a playboy or bossy to leave boyhood behind. Rather, you need the courage to throw away stereotypes.

Find out the key differences between being a child and an adult, and determine whether or not you or someone you know is ready to make the leap in "The Difference Between a Boy and a Man."

Aisholpan Nurgaiv, the subject of the award-winning documentary The Eagle Huntress, tells her own story for the first time, speaking directly with writer Liz Welch (I Will Always Write Back), who traveled to Mongolia for this book. Her story and fresh, sincere voice are not only inspiring but truly magnificent: with the support of her father, she captured and trained her own golden eagle and won the OElgii eagle festival. She was the only girl to compete in the festival. Her triumphant story hits on multiple key nonfiction points of appeal: stories of survival, of unique animal-human bonds, and of girls accomplishing amazing things. One of the consistent highest-achieving trends in middle-grade nonfiction continues to be empowering stories about strong girls accomplishing tasks that had previously been considered impossible. Not only does Aisholpan's story deliver that sensation in spades, but it comes with strong media ties from the 2016 documentary about her and her achievements.

A thought-provoking introduction for children to the people who live on our planet.

There are almost 8 billion humans living on Earth, but it's tricky to picture so many people! So instead, let's imagine the whole planet is a village where 100 people live – each person representing around 80 million people in the real world.

So what does our global village of 100 people look like? Are they all grown-ups? Are there more males or females? How many have black hair or blue eyes? What languages do they speak? Who can read and write? How many have access to the internet or have enough food to eat? Does everyone have access to electricity or clean water?

This book answers all of these questions and much, much more! Big ideas are broken into bitesize chunks through clever illustration and graphic design. By focussing on just 100 people, it's easier to see the things we have in common, and the things that make us unique. If the World Were 100 People is a perfect introduction about the world we live in for children aged 5+ and a wonderful way to support them in becoming global citizens. Great to read at home or in the classroom.

So come and meet the people in our global village, and think about the big questions that affect us all!
