As our neighborhoods grow more diverse, a splendid variety of
cultures, values and traditions become an important part of our
classrooms and schools. In Kids Like Me, 26 personal narratives
celebrate the experience of young people making a new home in a
strange community-finding common ground as they make new friends,
learn English, share their cultural identities, their challenges,
successes and dreams. Kids Like Me provides a youthful perspective
on the important themes of crossing cultures, immigration and
citizenship and learning to appreciate differences. These stories
are intended to foster intercultural awareness and sensitivity and
encourage individual and community action to assist newcomers in
their adjustment. While written to help youth understand their
classmates and friends, Kids Like Me also includes discussion
questions, self-directed activities and research ideas for teachers
and other mentors that can be used in classrooms, youth clubs and
community settings. Richly illustrated with photos and maps of each
home country, the text presents countless opportunities to explore
and understand different cultures and new friends. Young people who
have come from all over the world share their stories and invite
their new neighbors to see that in so many ways these kids are just
like me.
Cora Staunton is an elite sportswoman: winner of four All-Irelands,
11 All-Stars and five Club All-Irelands. She is a trailblazer in
the Australian Football League, and a hero in her native Mayo for
her gaelic football skills. But it's been a long and eventful road
for Cora. When she was young, she was small for her age, and had to
prove herself at every level: to the boys in her club, to the Mayo
selectors who took a chance on her as a teenager, but most
importantly to herself. From Croke Park to the stadiums of Sydney,
Cora has proved herself to be a master of the game. This is the
story of how a young football-mad girl became a living legend. A
story of female empowerment for younger readers.
An inspirational, upbeat collection of relatable lessons from the
teen sensation, Mackenzie Ziegler - an award-winning dancer,
singer/songwriter and actress. Growing up is hard, but growing up
in the spotlight is even harder. However, Mackenzie Ziegler is
taking it all in stride, thanks to her positive attitude on life.
From getting her start on Dance Moms, to her sold-out tour
alongside Johnny Orlando, there's nothing that she can't do. In
Kenzie's Rules for Life, the dance prodigy, singer/songwriter,
actress and model offers her advice on friendship, family, fitness,
style and positivity. For anyone who enjoyed her sister's Sunday
Times bestselling book The Maddie Diaries, this will be the perfect
accompaniment. She shares lessons drawn from her own experiences
for those navigating through their tween years on how to be happy,
healthy and confident in all aspects of their lives.
