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.

This book provides innovative pedagogy, theory, and strategies for
college and university professors who seek effective methods and
materials for teaching about gender and sex to today's students. It
provides thoughtful reflections on the new struggles and
opportunities instructors face in teaching gender and sex during
what has been called the "post-feminist era." Building off its
predecessor: Teaching Race and Anti-Racism in Contemporary America,
this book offers complementary classroom exercises for teachers,
that foster active and collaborative learning. Through reflecting
on the gendered dimensions of the current political, economic, and
cultural climate, as well as presenting novel lesson plans and
classroom activities, Teaching Gender and Sex in Contemporary
America is a valuable resource for educators.
After witnessing the murder of his parents, Prince Dionisio and
Princess Carlota, brave twelve-year-old Rafael barely escapes and
ends up on a ship heading out to sea. There he meets Alex, an
orphan boy his own age who works on the ship. Their voyage begins
in 1486, during the time when Christopher Columbus sails the ocean
and discovers the New World.
In spite of their vastly different backgrounds, Rafael and Alex
share a faith and grow to become fast friends in a captivating
story filled with excitement and daring. The boys protect each
other and dodge perilous situations by using their survival skills
and being guided by their strong belief in God. Traveling to the
unknown, the boys grow to become men-one yearning for the heart of
a special girl, the other seeking to serve God.
Readers of all ages will go back in time as author Pat Mac
Donald brings history, friendship, faith, and adventure together in
"Two Orphans, Columbus, and the New World."
