What's for dinner? How about skizzle klumps n' gizzardlumps? A
hilarious look at mealtime with a pair of persnickety eaters, in
the most fun made-up language ever! Would you like a bite of
frizzle frazzle hotchy potch? How about a plate of mushy gushy
bloobarsh? NERP, says our hero. Nerpity nerpity nerp! (That's "NO"
to you!) With nonsense language and humorously expressive
illustrations, this delightfully silly picture book tells the story
of two picky eaters--one child, one pet--of indiscriminate species,
a multitude of supposedly tasty goodies, and one surprising
solution to a familiar childhood situation.
"What appears to be a simple story upon first glance actually
offers uncomplicated yet practical remedies for helping a child
deal with a strong emotion." --Booklist (Starred review) Allie All
Along deserves a spot on the shelf with Where the Wild Things Are,
When Sophie Gets Angry--Really, Really Angry... and My Mouth Is a
Volcano." --Shelf Awareness "Allie's crayon broke. I blinked. She
was suddenly . . . furious, fuming, frustrated . . ." Have you ever
felt mad enough to stomp, smash, and crash? Allie has! Meet one
angry little girl and see how she calms down, bit by bit--with the
help of her understanding big brother. Poor Allie! She's in a rage,
throwing a tantrum, and having a fit! Her emotions have built and
built and now they just burst. Is there a sweet little girl hiding
somewhere under all the angry layers? And can her big brother find
a way to make things all right again? In the tradition of When
Sophie Gets Angry--Really, Really Angry and Sometimes I'm Bombaloo,
Allie All Along explores simple ways kids can center themselves in
the face of overwhelming emotions. The illustrations' varying hues
and vibrant colors capture the powerful feelings that young
children can't always express in words.

Immigrants in the United States send more than $20 billion every
year back to Mexico--one of the largest flows of such remittances
in the world. With "The Remittance Landscape," Sarah Lynn Lopez
offers the first extended look at what is done with that money, and
in particular how the building boom that it has generated has
changed Mexican towns and villages.
Lopez not only identifies a clear correspondence between the flow
of remittances and the recent building boom in rural Mexico, she
proposes that this construction boom itself motivates migration and
changes social and cultural life for migrants and their families.
At the same time, migrants are changing the landscapes of cities in
the United States: for example, Chicago and Los Angeles are home to
buildings explicitly created as headquarters for Mexican workers
from several Mexican states such as Jalisco, Michoacan, and
Zacatecas. Through careful ethnographic and architectural analysis,
and fieldwork on both sides of the border, Lopez brings migrant
hometowns to life and positions them within the larger debates
about immigration.

This volume of essays is the first to focus on the Colored
Conventions movement, the nineteenth century's longest campaign for
Black civil rights. Well before the founding of the NAACP and other
twentieth-century pillars of the civil rights movement, tens of
thousands of Black leaders organized state and national conventions
across North America. Over seven decades, they advocated for social
justice and against slavery, protesting state-sanctioned and mob
violence while demanding voting, legal, labor, and educational
rights. While Black-led activism in this era is often overshadowed
by the attention paid to the abolition movement, this collection
centers Black activist networks, influence, and institution
building. Collectively, these essays highlight the vital role of
the Colored Conventions in the lives of thousands of early
organizers, including many of the most famous writers, ministers,
politicians, and entrepreneurs in the long history of Black
activism. Contributors: Erica L. Ball, Kabria Baumgartner, Daina

WHAT WOULD YOU DRAW? Cardiff has a talent for drawing, and recently
discovered he can Draw with a capital D; the ability to make
anything he draws come to life Mom could Draw as well. Dad told him
that all Smith's that ever had the gift mysteriously vanish. Mom is
no exception. But what good is having an amazing gift if you can
never use it? When Cardiff meets a lonely gibbon at the zoo he gets
an idea that might be taking it a step too far. The Smith Family
Secret is a secret, after all.
The Smith Family Secret: Book 1 is just the beginning of a new
chapter book series the whole family can enjoy... Anything Cardiff
Smith draws comes to life, at a terrible cost. Everyone who has
ever had the gift disappears, including Cardiff's mother. But what
good is having an amazing gift if you can never use it? Cardiff
starts with a pink bicycle for his little sister Paris, draws an
electric guitar for his big brother Zurich, and secretly leaves
gifts for everyone at school. When he decides to draw a park over
the old lot in town Cardiff might be taking it a step too far. The
Smith family secret is a secret after all. Book 1 of The Smith
Family Secret is a 12,000-word chapter book, with a Flesch-Kincaid
Grade Level of 2.9, perfect for your young reader who is excited
about magic and art.
Welsh and Old English nature poetry show important similarities
in both mood and imagery. However, modern critics have done both a
disservice by viewing each too narrowly within what Higley calls
the "anglocentric tradition." Study of Old English has suffered
from its isolation from the Welsh, in particular from the lessons
to be learned from its ambiguous, i.e., "uncooperative" qualities.
Taking an inclusive approach that extends from phonology to
imagery, her book examines poems from both traditions and achieves
new and persuasive readings. Between Languages attempts to bring
obscure and moving poems into a wider critical orbit, and it offers
new translations of The Seafarer, Maxims II, and Wulf and Eadwacer
among the English and The Sick Man of Abercuawg, Song of the Old
Man, and various gnomic and wisdom poems among the Welsh, including
one of the few complete English translations in this century of a
vatic poem from The Book of Taliesin.
Welsh and Old English poetry, moreover, have often been
described as like or different from each other. Higley breaks this
cycle of mutual marginalization with theoretically innovative
discussions of each text on its own merits. She joins scholars like
Allen Frantzen, Lee Patterson, and Suzanne Fleischmann in pointing
out that medievalists have, to their own peril, failed to avail
themselves of the subtle resources of postmodern criticism.
Between Languages makes accessible to a modern audience the
traditions of Welsh and Old English poetry, which are at once
parallel, unique, and mutually informative, and at the same time
distinct from poetry since the eighteenth century.
