If you choose to share 'the facts of life' with children at a young

Shortlisted for the Junior Science Book Award (now the Royal
Society's Science Prize).
This nonfiction self-help book for young readers with disordered
eating and body image problems delivers real talk about eating
disorders and body image, tools and information for recovery, and
suggestions for dealing with the media messages that contribute so
much to disordered eating. You Are Enough answers questions like: *
What are eating disorders? * What types of treatment are available
for eating disorders? * What is anxiety? * How can you relax? *
What is cognitive reframing? * Why are measurements like BMI flawed
and arbitrary? * What is impostor syndrome? * How do our role
models affect us? . . . just to name a few. Many eating disorder
books are written in a way that leaves many people out of the
eating disorder conversation, and this book is written with a
special eye on inclusivity.
Connections made with other people affect the way we grow and
thrive. But it can be hard to make new friends and maintain old
relationships. Learn how to connect with people, be a good friend
and get the most out of friendships.
Look inside the human body in this incredible inventive board book with see-through acetate pages.
What’s going on inside the human body? How do we move, eat, think, sleep and breathe? Children will love looking inside to discover the answers with amazing see-through pages and clear, friendly text. With labelled acetate diagrams of the muscular, skeletal, respiratory, circulatory, digestive, excretory and nervous systems, this is a fantastic first look at human anatomy for curious children everywhere.
From pumping blood to breathing air, The Body Book is an exciting way to explore all the amazing things our body can do.
The highly anticipated second-and final-book in the immersive
fantasy duology inspired by West African folklore that began with
the New York Times bestselling A Song of Wraiths and Ruin, from
author Roseanne A. Brown. Perfect for fans of Tomi Adeyemi, Renee
Ahdieh, and Sabaa Tahir. Karina lost everything after a violent
coup left her without her kingdom or her throne. Now the most
wanted person in Sonande, her only hope of reclaiming what is
rightfully hers lies in a divine power hidden in the long-lost city
of her ancestors. Meanwhile, the resurrection of Karina's sister
has spiraled the world into chaos, with disaster after disaster
threatening the hard-won peace Malik has found as Farid's
apprentice. When they discover that Karina herself is the key to
restoring balance, Malik must use his magic to lure her back to
their side. But how do you regain the trust of someone you once
tried to kill? As the fabric holding Sonande together begins to
tear, Malik and Karina once again find themselves torn between
their duties and their desires. And when the fate of everything
hangs on a single, horrifying choice, they each must decide what
they value most-a power that could transform the world, or a love
that could transform their lives.

Each book in the "Dealing with Feeling..." series looks at a
different emotion commonly experienced by young children. The books
help readers to identify their emotions, and provide tips and
advice on how best to express and deal with them. This book looks
at happiness, including what happiness feels like, how to turn sad
feelings into happy ones, and how to make other people feel happy.
How can simple activities help us connect more fully with our
children and live more happily together? What types of games will
encourage children to be kind to others? How can crafting and
outdoor play build respect for the natural world? The Connected
Family Handbook offers empowering advice and practical activities
to answer these questions and many more. Experienced parenting
coach and popular author Lou Harvey-Zahra and successful parenting
blogger Danielle Harbison have created a unique and inspiring book
for carers of toddlers to ten year olds. Each of the ten chapters
tackles an important theme for families -- Home, Kindness,
Mealtimes, Move, Warmth, Teamwork, Adventure, Nature, Wonder and
Celebration -- and suggests ways to nurture these qualities in
children. Every chapter is illustrated with beautiful photographs
and includes easy crafts and fun recipes to create with children,
stories and verses to share, as well as tips on creative
discipline, positive play and establishing family rhythms and
routines. Engage with NATURE by crafting toys from sticks, nurture
WONDER by sharing a story about toadstools and fairy folk,
encourage KINDNESS by creating a toy medical kit and make MEALTIMES
fun with frozen fruit pizza. All of Lou and Danielle's ideas and
advice come from a background of holistic child development, and
celebrate values including eco-friendly living, connected family
life, healthy and fun food choices and the importance of
imaginative play.
A New York Times Bestseller! Who was at the forefront of women's
right to vote? We know a few famous names, like Susan B. Anthony
and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, but what about so many others from
diverse backgrounds--black, Asian, Latinx, Native American, and
more--who helped lead the fight for suffrage? On the hundredth
anniversary of the historic win for women's rights, it's time to
celebrate the names and stories of the women whose stories have yet
to be told. Gorgeous portraits accompany biographies of such fierce
but forgotten women as Yankton Dakota Sioux writer and advocate
Zitkala-Sa, Mary Eliza Church Terrell, who cofounded the National
Association of Colored Women (NACW), and Mabel Ping-Hua Lee, who,
at just sixteen years old, helped lead the biggest parade in
history to promote the cause of suffrage. Finish the Fight! will
fit alongside important collections that tell the full story of
America's fiercest women.

Discover what really happens inside you, from breathing and eating
to thinking and growing. Packed with fascinating facts, this is a
perfect introduction to the amazing machine that is the human body.
Agony Uncle, relationship expert, journalist and blogger, Alex
Hooper-Hodson received upwards of 2,000 letters a month from teen
boys and girls aged 12-15. All can be related to 52 core issues
that affect teenage boys and girls today - from first sexual
relationships, dealing with spots, how to avoid Facebook mistakes,
how drink, drugs and on-line gaming can affect your life - to the
social and emotional aspects of family, friends and relationships.
Through a 'Problem Page' format Alex explores the key issues that
today's teens face.
A teenage girl wonders if she's inherited more than just a heart
from her donor in this compulsively readable debut.
Seventeen-year-old Chloe had a plan: work hard, get good grades,
and attend a top-tier college. But after she collapses during cross
country practice and is told that she needs a new heart, all her
careful preparations are laid to waste. Eight months after her
transplant, everything is different. Stuck in summer school with
the underachievers, all she wants to do now is grab her surfboard
and hit the waves - which is strange, because she wasn't interested
in surfing before her transplant. (It doesn't hurt that her
instructor, Kai, is seriously good looking.) And that's not all
that's strange. There's also the vivid recurring nightmare about
crashing a motorcycle in a tunnel and memories of people and places
she doesn't recognize. Is there something wrong with her head now,
too, or is there another explanation for what she's experiencing?
As she searches for answers, and as her attraction to Kai
intensifies, what she learns will lead her to question everything
she thought she knew - about life, death, love, identity, and the
true nature of reality.
Easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions take little ones through a
grounding series of basic yoga poses. Simple, descriptive language
invites young children to pretend to be a bear, moving their furry
bodies into specific yoga poses designed to both energize and
inspire bravery.
Delightful illustrations and clear step-by-step instructions take
little ones through a series of simple yoga poses. Happy Tiger
playfully invites young children to pretend to be a tiger, moving
their feline bodies into specific yoga poses known for increasing
feelings of happiness.
Mindfulness and Nature helps young children to slow down and pay
attention to the world outside and the way our bodies and minds
experience it. The book encourages the reader to appreciate the
beauty of nature on our doorstep. Mindful Spaces guides children
aged 7+ through exercises and activities that help them slow down
and pay attention to their minds, their bodies, their feelings and
their emotions as they find ways to calm down and become more
focused. The books encourage self-esteem and self-confidence.
