After escaping a playground predator, a little girl learns to understand what happened and how to carry herself with pride after five older women organize a 'Courage Party' for her and share stories from their own lives. Interactions with police, pediatricians, prosecutors, victim advocates, a community rape crisis center and courthouse are depicted as Danielle learns she is more than a survivor. She is a 'crime fighter,' powered by her own truthfulness and courage, able to protect other kids in the park, with many good grownups on her side. Dani's own good grownup talks in the margins to parents about key ideas: ending conflicting messages; understanding the difference between loving adult sexual intercourse and sexual abuse; interacting with authorities; and helping your child deal with malicious gossip, taunts and jeers. Parental guide included. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

'The Prince & the Birch Tree' is the first comic in the 15-part Seeds of Spring series. Naguset begins to learn the origin of her nickname, which means birch tree. She remembers her mother, who died when she was a child, bonds with her sister, and begins to read Kropotkin's biography, in which his family life parallels her own experience. In this innovative serial graphic novel, Naguset, a modern Canadian Mi'kmaq teenager, exchanges books and mix tapes with her pen pal, Chris. Her imagination sparks when he sends her a biography of the 19th century Russian anarchist Peter Kropotkin. The story juxtaposes Naguset's personal and political coming-of-age in her loving family home with Kropotkin's rocky upbringing in a princely palace. These two stories of eventful lives and bold hearts are interwoven with Kropotkin's theories of freedom, Mi'kmaq vocabulary and social history, and an uplifting punk soundtrack, creating a unique reading experience bound to inspire readers to think in new ways about the issues of our time.

Today, we're married to our cars. But life behind the wheel of an automobile didn't come naturally to Americans. Crooked politicians, unscrupulous businessmen, burning streetcars, and convoluted tax shenanigans are a few of the players in this gripping tale of corruption, greed, and endless miles of asphalt. Comics, text, and historic photographs tell the story of the rise of the U.S. highway system and the corresponding demise of rail and public transportation. Also shown is the story of how we can ditch the car and rebuild a functional transportation system that will bring wealth, happiness, and freedom. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

'The Same Old Mistakes Again and Again' is the third comic in the 15-part Seeds of Spring series. Naguset spends precious time with her brother Mu'in before he is deployed to active military duty, and he tells her more of the story behind her name. At school, she helps a friend cope with cruel bullying. A century earlier and half a world away, young Peter stands up to bullies of his own at military school, and later finds solace in nature, letters, and banned books. In this innovative serial graphic novel, Naguset, a modern Canadian Mi'kmaq teenager, exchanges books and mix tapes with her pen pal, Chris. Her imagination sparks when he sends her a biography of the 19th century Russian anarchist Peter Kropotkin.

A 'David and Goliath' story, On The Books is the first-hand account of the labor struggle at NYC's legendary Strand bookstore in the summer of 2012. Told by Greg Farrell, an employee of the store who interviewed numerous other members of the staff, the book examines the motives and actions of those involved, including the store, the staff, the union local, and the people of New York City, as understood by the author. Farrell gives voice to his comrades, who provide a depth of opinion and fairness to accompany Farrell's often very personal interpretation of events. In its ten short chapters the book explores at once the inner workings of our national retail environment, the current state of the book trade, and what happens when that no longer seems possible.

By now you know the drill: Ben White draws his life everyday in 3 comic panels. This was his first book, collecting quite a few various zines. Said Jimmi Payne's Punk Zine, 'Taken individually, each strip resembles what a friend would say if you asked what they had done that day. Ben sifts through the minutiae of life as well as the full experience of time in a day. This is different than James Kochalka's work as there is no pretense at narrative or point. The narratives in Snakepit open up on the macro level.' Introduction about doing cocaine by Aaron Cometbus. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

The graphic history of the 2001 Cincinnati riots, told for the first time from the perspective of the participants. This was the first major uprising of the 21st Century, matched only the LA riots a decade before and the protests in Ferguson over a decade later. Mendez Moore's comics journalism account sensitively captures a fiery moment in U.S. history through interviews with protesters, community leaders, bystanders, and a frustrated looter. Six Days is an all-American story of systemic racism and the power of popular movements, more relevant today than ever before. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
