Advice for a Happy Marriage: From Miss Crawford's Third Grade Class by Debi Dietz Crawford, ISBN 0446911704
When third-grade teacher Debi Dietz Crawford was away on her honeymoon, her substitute asked the class to write down some advice for the new couple, never dreaming how charming, funny, and honest and true their responses would be. Here, with the children's own crayoned illustrations, are dozens of their wonderful suggestions, from "Always take turns getting up and making the coffee" to "You need to kiss every once in a while" to "Do not marry another person". Heartwarming and wise beyond the years of its young authors, Advice for a Happy Marriage is a book to give, receive, reflect on, and share.
In the Spirit of Murder by Laura Belgrave, ISBN 1570721246
The first story I remember writing for public dissemination was something called. "The Day the Gravity Left the Earth". I think I was nine or ten. Well, gravity never did leave the earth, but my imagination certainly did. It hasn't been entirely grounded since.
Of course, somewhere on my way to becoming an adult I realized that Imagination alone wouldn't pay the bills and I wound up doing a lot of things that would. Some were ordinary. Some were less than ordinary. Some were just bizarre.
There was a four-year stint in the Air Force, where I worked on base newspapers. Then I attended the University of South Florida where I graduated cum laude with a degree in journalism. I wrote for the St. Petersburg Times and the Tampa Tribune, and became an editor. My focus was mostly on the murder and mayhem side of the business. It wore thin.
Somehow I parlayed my hard-core news experience into a staff position with a children's book publishing company. That satisfied me for a good chunk of time...

The Children's Culture Reader by Henry Jenkins, ISBN 0814742327
Far from noncombatants whom we seek to protect from the contamination posed by adult knowledge, children form the very basis on which we fight over the nature and values of our society, and over our hopes and fears for the future. Unfortunately, our understanding of childhood and children has not kept pace with their crucial and rapidly changing roles in our culture.
Pulling together a range of different thinkers who have rethought the myths of childhood innocence, The Children's Culture Reader develops a profile of children as creative and critical thinkers who shape society even as it shapes them. The Children's Culture Reader focuses on issues of parent-child relations, child labor, education, play, and especially the relationship of children to mass media and consumer culture. The contributors include Martha Wolfenstein, Philippe Aries, Jacqueline Rose, James Kincaid, Lynn Spigel, Valerie Walkerdine, Ellen Seiter, Annette Kuhn, Eve Sedgwick, Henry Giroux, and Nancy Scheper-Hughes...
