What Girls Need: How to Raise Bold, Courageous, and Resilient Women
by Marisa Porges"A powerful book about how we can raise girls to become bold, ambitious women." --Adam GrantWhat do girls really need to succeed? Children today face an uncertain future, and parents and teachers can&’t fully predict what&’s in store for their daughter and sons. But one thing is clear: Our kids need a new set of skills to succeed. Girls, in particular, must nurture essential traits to fully flourish. Students hit the ground running today, entering a school system that carries high expectations on their way to a college application process that is more demanding than ever. After school, young women enter a competitive job market, still complicated by sexism and the possibility of harassment. But the ways we define leadership are also changing, and the women stepping into those roles are mapping new paths to inhabiting traits like grit, resilience, audacity, and self-confidence. What Girls Need shows how parents and educators can foster these critical twenty-first-century skills in our girls and help them to recognize and nurture their inherent strengths—to not just thrive but also find joy and purpose as they come of age in our ever-evolving world. As a student at the all-girls Baldwin School outside of Philadelphia, Marisa Porges grew up in a community designed to produce strong, independent women. After graduating from Harvard, she fulfilled her childhood dream of flying jets off aircraft carriers for the U.S. Navy and served as a counterterrorism expert in Afghanistan and a cybersecurity advisor in the Obama White House. Then in 2016, in an unexpected move for someone whose ambitions had taken her so far from home, Porges returned to head the Baldwin School. In doing so, she saw how small moments in her early education gave her the tools she needed to excel in a &“man&’s world.&” Combining compelling research, personal stories, and practical advice on timely questions, Porges delves into hot-button subjects like how to harness girls&’ voices and boost girls&’ self-esteem, and shows how little things have a big impact when nurturing vital skills like competitiveness, collaboration, empathy, and adaptability. What Girls Need empowers us to support the next generation of women so they can confidently hold their own no matter what the future has in store.
What God Is Honored Here?: Writings on Miscarriage and Infant Loss by and for Native Women and Women of Color
by Kao Kalia Yang Shannon GibneyNative women and women of color poignantly share their pain, revelations, and hope after experiencing the traumas of miscarriage and infant loss What God Is Honored Here? is the first book of its kind—and urgently necessary. This is a literary collection of voices of Indigenous women and women of color who have undergone miscarriage and infant loss, experiences that disproportionately affect women who have often been cast toward the margins in the United States of America. From the story of dashed cultural expectations in an interracial marriage to poems that speak of loss across generations, from harrowing accounts of misdiagnoses, ectopic pregnancies, and late-term stillbirths to the poignant chronicles of miscarriages and mysterious infant deaths, What God Is Honored Here? brings women together to speak to one another about the traumas and tragedies of womanhood. In its heartbreaking beauty, this book offers an integral perspective on how culture and religion, spirit and body, unite in the reproductive lives of women of color and Indigenous women as they bear witness to loss, search for what is not there, and claim for themselves and others their fundamental humanity. Powerfully and with brutal honesty, they write about what it means to reclaim life in the face of death.Editors Shannon Gibney and Kao Kalia Yang acknowledge &“who we had been could not have prepared us for who we would become in the wake of these words,&” yet the writings collected here offer insight, comfort, and, finally, hope for all those who, like the women gathered here, have found grief a lonely place.Contributors: Jennifer Baker, Michelle Borok, Lucille Clifton, Sidney Clifton, Taiyon J.

Will a rogue NASA satellite crush her house before Robyn can set things right?Robyn Tinkerbell Goodfellow (yes, that's actually her name) has a target on her roof.

In the town of Calliope, Robyn and her magnet roof are famous--for being weird. That wasn't such a big deal . . . until now! A rogue NASA satellite is falling out of orbit and is going to hit Earth. NASA says it will probably land in the ocean, but Robyn knows better--that satellite is headed for her roof. To make matters worse, Robyn discovers that she doesn't just have a fairy middle name. When her class reads A Midsummer Night's Dream, she learns that Robin Goodfellow is a fairy! Which means if the satellite flattens her, everyone will laugh at her name in the news stories.

What Happened on Fox Street
by Tricia Springstubb Heather RossFox Street was a dead end. In Mo Wren's opinion, this was only one of many wonderful, distinguishing things about it. Mo lives on Fox Street with her dad and little sister, the Wild Child. Their house is in the middle of the block-right where a heart would be, if the street were a person. Fox Street has everything: a piano player, a fix-it man, the city's best burrito makers, a woman who cuts Mo's hair just right, not to mention a certain boy who wants to teach her how to skateboard. There's even a mean, spooky old lady, if ringing doorbells and running away, or leaving dead mice in mailboxes, is your idea of fun. Summers are Mo's favorite time, because her best friend, Mercedes, comes to stay. Most important, though, Fox Street is where all Mo's memories of her mother live. The idea of anything changing on Fox Street is unimaginable-until it isn't. This is the story of one unforgettable summer-a summer of alarming letters, mysterious errands, and surprising revelations-and how a tuft of bright red fur gives Mo the courage she needs.

What Happened to Ruthy Ramirez \ Qué le pasó a Ruthy Ramírez (Sp. ed.)
by Claire JimenezLas Ramírez de Stanten Islan orbitan alrededor de la ausencia. Cuando Ruthy, a los trece años, desapareció sin dejar rastro después de un entrenamiento de atletismo, su familia quedó marcada y deshecha. Una noche, doce años después, Jessica, la hermana mayor, ve en la pantalla de su televisión a una mujer que aparece en Catfight, un reality show subido de tono. Se apresura a decírselo a Nina, su hermana menor. El pelo de esta mujer está teñido de rojo y se hace llamar Ruby, pero el lunar bajo su ojo izquierdo es reconocible al instante. ¿Podría ser Ruthy, después de todo este tiempo? Los años desde la desaparición de Ruthy no han sido fáciles para la familia Ramírez. Es el año 2008 y su madre, Dolores, todavía padece la pérdida; Jessica se las arregla entre su bebé recién nacido y su trabajo en el hospital; y Nina, después de cuatro exitosos años en la universidad y de no haber sido aceptada en la escuela de medicina, regresa a casa y se ve obligada a trabajar en el centro comercial doblando diminutas tangas en una tienda de lencería. Después de ver a la posible Ruthy en la pantalla, Jessica y Nina planean manejar hasta el lugar donde se filma el programa para buscar a su hermana perdida. Cuando Dolores descubre su plan, insisten en ir con ellas, junto con Irene, su mejor amiga. Lo que sigue es un viaje de familia y un reencuentro que forzará a las Ramírez a, por fin, enfrentar el pasado y mirar hacia el futuro, con o sin Ruthy en sus vidas. ¿Qué le pasó a Ruthy Ramírez? es un retrato de familia vívido, en toda su destrozada realidad, que explora los lazos de familia entre mujeres y los ciclos de generaciones de violencia, colonialismo, raza y silencio, llenos de sarcasmo, resentimiento, ternura y, por supuesto, amor.

What Happens at Night
by Peter CameronA couple find themselves at a fading, grand European hotel full of eccentric and sometimes unsettling patrons in this ""faultlessly elegant and quietly menacing"" allegorical story that examines the significance of shifting desires and the uncertainty of reality (Garth Greenwell, author of Cleanness).An American couple travel to a strange, snowy European city to adopt a baby, who they hope will resurrect their failing marriage. This difficult journey leaves the wife, who is struggling with cancer, desperately weak, and her husband worries that her apparent illness will prevent the orphanage from releasing their child.The couple check into the cavernous and eerily deserted Borgarfjaroasysla Grand Imperial Hotel where the bar is always open and the restaurant serves thirteen–course dinners from centuries past. Their attempt to claim their baby is both helped and hampered by the people they encounter: an ancient, flamboyant chanteuse, a debauched businessman, an enigmatic faith healer, and a stoic bartender who dispenses an addictive, lichen–flavored schnapps. Nothing is as it seems in this mysterious, frozen world, and the longer the couple endure the punishing cold the less they seem to know about their marriage, themselves, and life itself.What Happens at Night is a "masterpiece" (Edmund White) poised on the cusp of reality, told by "an elegantly acute and mysteriously beguiling writer" (Richard Eder, The Boston Globe).

What Happens on Wednesdays
by Emily JenkinsA preschooler marks the progress of her day, not by the clock but by what happens after lunch, after nap, after swimming, after the library--and after Daddy comes home. She doesn't map her neighborhood by street signs, either. Her morning walk to see dogs in the park takes her past the cat outside the deli, past her friend Errolyn's building and the daycare where she used to go when she was little, and down the block to the bagel store. The sounds, tastes, smells, and sights of a multiethnic Brooklyn neighborhood, as seen through a child's eyes and captured by Emily Jenkins with enchanting pictures by debut illustrator Lauren Castillo, will encourage children to make their own sensory maps and list the events in their daily schedules.
