Debbie Taylor--novelist, traveller and author--takes us on a journey to meet seven remarkable women. In each of seven countries, she lives with one woman, learning about her work and her family, her fears and beliefs, her loves and losses. Taylor portrays them vividly: Jomuna, forced into backbreaking work hawking dried fish door-to-door, looked down upon and ostracized because she is a widow; Hua, a factory worker whose husband divorced her for giving birth to a daughter; Lydia, who followed her mother into prostitution after her husband ran off with another woman. Varied though their stories are, these women's lives are made similar by dual enemies: poverty, which pulls them down to the lowest rungs in their societies, and patriarchy, which sabotages their attempts to climb higher. These forces bring about what Taylor calls the Fourth World: families headed by women, now comprising one-quarter of all households in the world. Taylor tells these moving stories with great empathy and insight. Ranging from China, India, and Australia to Uganda, Egypt, Brazil, and Scotland, she brings to life the worlds these women inhabit, meticulously detailing their struggles to secure a decent life for themselves and their children.

Are children and adolescents being silenced and their growth stunted in the age of quick diagnoses and overmedication? In The Silenced Child, Dr. Claudia Gold shows the tremendous power of listening in parent/child and doctor/patient relationships. Through vivid stories, perceptive insights, and new research, she shows the way children grow from these relationships and how being heard actually changes their brains. She helps both parents and caregivers make the time and space for listening. Praise for Keeping Your Child in Mind: "A very useful, thoughtful book. It lays out the best thinking of our time to help parents make decisions about nurturing their child's development." -- T. Berry Brazelton, MD, professor of Pediatrics, Emeritus Harvard Medical School

Brown Gold is a compelling history and analysis of African-American children's picturebooks from the mid-nineteenth century to the present. At the turn of the nineteenth century, good children's books about black life were hard to find — if, indeed, young black readers and their parents could even gain entry into the bookstores and libraries. But today, in the "Golden Age" of African-American children's picturebooks, one can find a wealth of titles ranging from Happy to be Nappy to Black is Brown is Tan. In this book, Michelle Martin explores how the genre has evolved from problematic early works such as Epaminondas that were rooted in minstrelsy and stereotype, through the civil rights movement, and onward to contemporary celebrations of blackness. She demonstrates the cultural importance of contemporary favorites through keen historical analysis — scrutinizing the longevity and proliferation of the Coontown series and Ten Little Niggers books, for example — that makes clear how few picturebooks existed in which black children could see themselves and their people positively represented even up until the 1960s. Martin also explores how children's authors and illustrators have addressed major issues in black life and history including racism, the civil rights movement, black feminism, major historical figures, religion, and slavery. Brown Gold adds new depth to the reader's understanding of African-American literature and culture, and illuminates how the round, dynamic characters in these children's novels, novellas, and picturebooks can put a face on the past, a face with which many contemporary readers can identify.
