Have you ever faced adversity? Me too, and I know the trail of devastation that it can leave behind. For the past 20 months, I have spent hours seeking inspiration from regular people with real life stories. As part of my journey, I have spoken to people in the US, Kenya, India and the UK. I have interviewed people who were born with a debilitating disability, paralysed in the prime of their lives, diagnosed with cancer and engulfed by addiction. What I learned is this: through adversity, inspiration can be found. The amazing true stories I encountered include: -People who have created charities that have changed the world. -People who have been plagued by addiction for years and gone on to save lives. -People dogged with self-doubt who are now best selling authors. -People who were told they would never walk who went on to become champion athletes. -People who have had out-of-body experiences and spoken to God. How this book can help you... Listening to the stories of so many incredible people has helped me to formulate six key steps that can help you come out of the worst times and choose the life you desire.

If I Can, You Can Too is a motivational book written by retired teacher-counselor Alene Sheffield. Alene is a native of Fort Myers, Florida. She moved to Sarasota, Florida, where she continued her teacher-counselor career in 1988, following the death of her beloved husband, Dr. Arthur Sheffield Jr. Following her retirement in 2010, she returned to work, where she felt a close connection to her adult students who had dropped out of school and were experiencing a difficult life without a high school diploma or GED. During the course of that training, Alene saw the need to motivate her students to share their life experiences and how they had turned their lives around, some from the schoolhouse to the jailhouse and back to the schoolhouse. As their teacher, Alene saw the need to share her life experiences from a poor ghetto community and not having made the poor or bad decisions most of them had made. Both she and the students were encouraged to have their life stories placed into a book. Hopefully, it will not only encourage them to carry on and live successful lives but also motivate others to have faith that if others can do it, they can do it too. May their lives reflect the peace and happiness they all deserve.

The New York Times bestseller that gives readers a paradigm-shattering new way to think about motivation from the author of When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing Most people believe that the best way to motivate is with rewards like money—the carrot-and-stick approach. That's a mistake, says Daniel H. Pink (author of To Sell Is Human: The Surprising Truth About Motivating Others). In this provocative and persuasive new book, he asserts that the secret to high performance and satisfaction-at work, at school, and at home—is the deeply human need to direct our own lives, to learn and create new things, and to do better by ourselves and our world. Drawing on four decades of scientific research on human motivation, Pink exposes the mismatch between what science knows and what business does—and how that affects every aspect of life. He examines the three elements of true motivation—autonomy, mastery, and purpose-and offers smart and surprising techniques for putting these into action in a unique book that will change how we think and transform how we live.

Ethan is sure his parents are trying to trick him into staying under the covers, until he sees five colorful sets of eyes blinking at him from beneath the bed. Soon, a colorful parade of quirky, squeaky little monsters compete to become Ethan's monster. But only the little green monster, Gabe, has the perfect blend of stomach-rumbling and snorting needed to get Ethan into bed and keep him there so he falls asleep—which as everyone knows, is the real reason for monsters under beds. With its perfect balance of giggles and shivers, this silly-spooky prequel to the award-winning I Need My Monster and Hey, That's MY Monster! will keep young readers entertained.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Tarana Burke and Dr. Brené Brown bring together a dynamic group of Black writers, organizers, artists, academics, and cultural figures to discuss the topics the two have dedicated their lives to understanding and teaching: vulnerability and shame resilience. Contributions by Kiese Laymon, Imani Perry, Laverne Cox, Jason Reynolds, Austin Channing Brown, and more NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY MARIE CLAIRE AND BOOKRIOT It started as a text between two friends. Tarana Burke, founder of the ‘me too.’ Movement, texted researcher and writer Brené Brown to see if she was free to jump on a call. Brené assumed that Tarana wanted to talk about wallpaper. They had been trading home decorating inspiration boards in their last text conversation so Brené started scrolling to find her latest Pinterest pictures when the phone rang. But it was immediately clear to Brené that the conversation wasn’t going to be about wallpaper. Tarana’s hello was serious and she hesitated for a bit before saying, “Brené, you know your work affected me so deeply, but as a Black woman, I’ve sometimes had to feel like I have to contort myself to fit into some of your words. The core of it rings so true for me, but the application has been harder.” Brené replied, “I’m so glad we’re talking about this. It makes sense to me. Especially in terms of vulnerability. How do you take the armor off in a country where you’re not physically or emotionally safe?” Long pause. “That’s why I’m calling,” said Tarana. “What do you think about working together on a book about the Black experience with vulnerability and shame resilience?” There was no hesitation. Burke and Brown are the perfect pair to usher in this stark, potent collection of essays on Black shame and healing. Along with the anthology contributors, they create a space to recognize and process the trauma of white supremacy, a space to be vulnerable and affirm the fullness of Black love and Black life.

Beware! Dangerous secrets lie between the pages of this book. OK, I warned you. But if you think I'll give anything away, or tell you that this is the sequel to my first literary endeavor, The Name of This Book is Secret, you're wrong. I'm not going to remind you of how we last left our heroes, Cass and Max-Ernest, as they awaited intiation into the mysterious Terces Society, or the ongoing fight against the evil Dr. L and Ms. Mauvais. I certainly won't be telling you about how the kids stumble upon the Museum of Magic, where they finally meet the amazing Pietro! Oh, blast! I've done it again. Well, at least I didn't tell you about the missing Sound Prism, the nefarious Lord Pharaoh, or the mysterious creature born in a bottle over 500 years ago, the key to the biggest secret of all. I really can't help myself, now can I? Let's face it - if you're reading this, it's too late.
