Book excerpt: One summer chasing tornadoes could finally change Jane's life for the better Seventeen-year-old Jane McAllister can't quite admit her mother's alcoholism is spiraling dangerously out of control until she drives drunk, nearly killing them and Jane's best friend. Jane has only one place to turn: her older brother Ethan, who left the problems at home years ago for college. A summer with him and his tornado-chasing buddies may just provide the time and space Jane needs to figure out her life and whether it still includes her mother. But she struggles with her anger at Ethan for leaving home and feels guilty--is she also abandoning her mom just when she needs Jane most? The carefree trip turned journey of self-discovery quickly becomes more than Jane bargained for, especially when the devilishly handsome Max steps into the picture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this, her third collection of poems, Eleanor Wilner revises a number of our culture's central myths; invoking figures as diverse as Briar Rose and Miriam the Prophet, she casts upon their stories, and choices, an enlivening feminist perspective. "There is so much that is impressive in Wilner's mature poems. In an era which has been labelled 'The End of History,' she examines history's less obvious lessons. If the past is to teach us, she seems to say, then we must re-invent and re-shape it."—Poetry

Book excerpt: FUNNY, SAD, ENLIGHTENING--- THOUGHT PROVOKING INSIGHTS INTO AMERICAN HISTORY AND LIFE IN THE TWENTY FIRST CENTURY-- NOT JUST ANOTHER JADED AMERICAN PYSCHE--- TAKE THE JOURNEY WITH TRAVIS N. TARKINGTON, A ROGUE DRONE KNOWN AS NINER, AND A CLONE NAMED ZEL AS THEY SEARCH FOR ANSWERS TO HOW HU-MANIMALS BECAME THE LEAST VALUED OF ALL SPECIES AND HOW THE ETERNALS CAME TO POWER. HE WEAVES A HUMOROUS YET DARK PICTURE OF THE FUTURE. "It was when I first read CS Lewis that I began to see that astute and watchful men were aware of this progressive movement during the ages in which they lived. Anyway, what Lewis was saying about his world in the 1940's was that socialism already waxed a sway over people. He talks about society being ignorant (willingly so) due to their attachment to the existing humanistic philosophies of his generation. Lewis wasn't the only writer to see this blackness creeping into the political agenda of men. Hundreds of writers throughout history knew of this sinister thread being woven into the mural of mankind. I had only found one small thread. I wanted to know how we got to the point where our own government killed us and called us Hu-manimals instead of people. It is so outrageous, so insane that I couldn't believe it myself, and how did you convince others of a plot even you could not believe? I needed proof. Of course the SG had sent these flying bird drones to kill off us remaining stragglers. The cowards had not come themselves. It was a numbing realization to know you were targeted for extinction. It struck me that reality had flipped flopped. It was hunting season in reverse. Blimy! This time the drone birds had the guns, and they were shooting first!" A JOURNEY OF DISCOVERY, TRUTH, AND ONE THAT BY THE END BECOMES AS CLEAR AS A YELLOW BRICK ROAD-

From a haunted incident to a shattered romance and the promise of a happy ending, Lockhart walks, runs, and shapeshifts himself through the labyrinthian corridors of the magically realistic world in his path.

Book excerpt: ABOVE The Age of Enlightenment has come to England. Among the triumphs of science is the prediction by Sir Edmond Halley that a comet last seen in 1682 will return in 1758 -- a prediction that will soon be put to the test. BELOW A century ago, the fae of the Onyx Court fought to defeat the Great Fire of London, an elemental Dragon that destroyed four-fifths of the city. In the aftermath, they banished its spirit to a comet -- a comet that will soon return. BETWEEN The race has begun. When Halley’s comet appears, the Dragon will strike, and the city will burn once more. Faerie magic alone cannot kill this monster; defeating it for good will require the aid of science as well. But science brings its own form of danger . . .

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teaching Diversity in Rural Schools: Attaining Understanding, Tolerance, and Respect Through Young Adult Literature aims to assist secondary English Language Arts rural educatorsand students regarding diversity education through the use of rural, small town-themed young adult literature. While appropriate for any rural educator, the Upper Midwestern states (IA, MN, MT, NE, ND, SD, and WY) are focused on because they are unique in their predominantly White residents, with few to no racial and cultural minorities in all locations, large or small. Teaching rural students about minorities and facilitating in developing understanding, tolerance, and respect toward those different from oneself is difficult when absent from communities and schools. However, this book helps in reaching these goals through the use of titles that consider specific topics of cultural and racial minorities, such as those who are LGBTQ+, undocumented, homeless, having exceptionalities, managing grief/loss, and more. Also addressed are rural communities and schools, the purpose and importance of young adult literature, and locating quality rural, small town-themed novels. Suggestions for using this literature, activities, discussion topics, and recommended titles are also provided.
