Apartheid is responsible for hunger, homelessness and death.
However, the worst crime of apartheid is that it made black people
believe they were inferior to white people. Steve Biko was someone
who never believed this lie. He showed black people that they had a
culture and a history of which they should be proud. Biko's
powerful ideas became known as Black Consciousness and spread
throughout the country. Black people took notice - and stood up in
their thousands to challenge the apartheid monster. Biko died in
detention in 1977. His ideas, however, lived on. In this book, you
will meet Steve Biko the young boy, the student, the activist and
the proud father of Black Consciousness. They Fought for Freedom
tells the life stories of southern African leaders who struggled
for freedom and justice. In spite of the important roles they
played in the history of southern Africa, most of these leaders
have been largely ignored by the history books. The series tells
their stories in an entertaining manner, in clear language and aims
to restore them to their rightful place in history.
The third installment of Scott Westerfeld's New York Times
bestselling and award-winning Uglies series - a global phenomenon
that started the dystopian trend. Tally thought they were a rumor,
but now she's one of them. A Special. A super-amped fighting
machine, engineered to keep the uglies down and the pretties
stupid. But maybe being perfectly programmed with strength and
focus isn't better than anything she's ever known. Tally still has
memories of something else. Still, it's easy to tune that out -
until she's offered a chance to stamp out the rebels of the New
Smoke permanently. It all comes down to one last choice: listen to
that tiny, faint heartbeat, or carry out the mission she's
programmed to complete. Either way, Tally's world will never be the
same. Praise for Uglies 'Fast paced, exciting and
thought-provoking.' The Bookseller's Choice 'Superb sci-fi.' Amanda
Craig, The Times Supplement 'Westerfeld introduces
thought-provoking issues' Publishers Weekly 'The longing for
fairy-tale beauty has never looked so sinister' Amanda Craig, The
Times 'With a beginning and ending that pack hefty punches, this
introduction to a dystopic future promises an exciting series.'

important it is not to judge people by appearances.' Newcastle Upon
Tyne Journal 'This book is a real thrill-ride and the world utterly
convincing.' Trashionista.com 'Fun, and the many
by-the-skin-of-your-teeth escapes and hoverboard chases, plus the
non-stop action plotting were enough to catch my attention and have
me eagerly wanting more.' The Book Smugglers Also by Scott

What does it mean to be sad? It's normal for people to feel down
sometimes. Learn what it feels like, what causes it, and how to
turn sad feelings into happy ones. Big, diverse photos illustrate
what sadness looks like. A mindfulness activity will give children
the chance to practice managing their emotions.
This book spells out in simple terms why people may feel threatened
by racial differences, what it feels like to be bullied because
your skin is a different colour and why it hurts everyone to judge
people by their skin or culture. It will encourage positive
acceptance and openess about differences and suggest ways for
children to celebrate their own cultural heritage without
belittling someone else's. Notes for parents and teachers at the
back of the book provide valuable advice for how to share this book
with your child or class. Suitable for Key Stage 1 (ages 5-7),
occasional prompts throughout the text give a chance to discuss the
issue being raised. Written by trained psychotherapist, journalist
and parent, and illustrated by an experienced children's book
artist, this is a part of an acclaimed and successful, long-running
series of picture-book non-fiction books for Early Years. Books in
the series give advice and promote interaction between children,
parents and teachers on a wide variety of personal, social and
emotional issues. They are excellent tools for teachers to use
during classroom discussions. "This picture-led book is a good
introduction to the issue of racism; what it means to be the victim
or the perpetrator, how subtle racism can be, and how unfair it is
to judge someone by the colour of their skin. A useful introduction
to the topic, particularly for classroom use." - Evening Echo 'The
book explores the issue of racism and deals with children's
concerns in a sensitive and reassuring way.' - Child Education

A powerful and timely story, exploring the journey of two young
refugee children in search of safety. Perfect for opening up
conversations about conflict and war, encouraging empathy and
understanding. A young boy and his older sister have left home to
play a game. To win, she tells him, they must travel across endless
lands together and make it to the finish line. Children they meet
along the way imagine what might be waiting for them across the
border: A spotted dog? Ice cream! Or maybe a new school. But the
journey is difficult, and the monsters are more real than they
imagined. And when it no longer feels like a game, the two children
must still find a way to forge ahead, and reach the other side.
Beautifully brought to life by author-illustrator Erika Meza, this
is a symbolic and emotionally rich picture book about the spirit
and strength it takes to leave your home behind.
"Adults squirm when the big questions come up, especially the big
spiritual ones. They don't want their kids to worry, so they give
answers that all say one thing: 'Don't worry. It's all okay.'
"And yet the big questions still keep coming up. At every age we
all need to know what life is really all about. Not just on the
surface, but deep down.
"Teenagers are no exception. They deserve a spiritual life all
their own. One that offers the kind of comfort we hope to give our
children, but is different at the same time. More full of ideas.
More mature. More fitting for the whole wide future that lies
ahead.
"That's what I've tried to do in this book, as fully and as
honestly as possible."
-- "Deepak Chopra"
A biography emphasizing the childhood of the man who became the first African-American to sit on the United States Supreme Court.

have; 84 months of change, 364 weeks of weird and 2,555 days of

it suck a little less. This book will challenge you to embrace your

you act your age. Literally. Bestselling author, award-winning
