Wandel ist notwendig - und unausweichlich. Er wartet nicht auf uns. Wer ihn zu vermeiden versucht, vermeidet oft das Leben. In diesem Buch bringen Gedichte, auf Deutsch und auf Englisch, reflektierende Perspektiven von gesellschaftlichen Wendepunkten zum Vorschein - sowie solchen, die es werden können. Aktuelle, relevante Diskussionsthemen, wie unter anderem Leistungsdenken, Gender-Ungleichheiten, Gesellschaftsspaltung oder die Klimakrise, werden auf kreative Weise behandelt und laden zum Weiterdenken und Handeln ein. Change is necessary - and inevitable. It does not wait for us. Those who try to avoid it often avoid life. Within this book, poems in English and in German reveal reflecting perspectives on societal turning points - and points to become such. Current relevant topics of discussion, such as performance demands, gender inequities, social divide or the climate crisis, are being approached in a creative way and invite to think further and act.

Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor tells her own story for young readers for the very first time! As the first Latina Supreme Court Justice, Sonia Sotomayor has inspired young people around the world to reach for their dreams. But what inspired her? For young Sonia, the answer was books! They were her mirrors, her maps, her friends, and her teachers. They helped her to connect with her family in New York and in Puerto Rico, to deal with her diabetes diagnosis, to cope with her father's death, to uncover the secrets of the world, and to dream of a future for herself in which anything was possible. In Turning Pages, Justice Sotomayor shares that love of books with a new generation of readers, and inspires them to read and puzzle and dream for themselves. Accompanied by Lulu Delacre's vibrant art, this story of the Justice's life shows readers that the world is full of promise and possibility--all they need to do is turn the page. Praise for Turning Pages: * "A sincere and insightful autobiography that also demonstrates the power of the written word. A winning addition to libraries that serve young readers." --School Library Journal, starred review "A personal and appealing book made to inspire." --Booklist "A thoughtful introduction to both the power of reading and an inspiring role model." --Kirkus Reviews "This book would be great as a read-aloud for class discussions of the Supreme Court, or United States government, or of important people in public service. It would also be good for independent reading by students interested in biographies or political figures." --School Library Connection

Real stories from the life of a functional drug addict, me. They are all significant events that I carry close to my heart. Some of them try to explore my descend into the addiction. Others talk about the effects of the addiction on my life and my relationships. Or how my relationships have affected my drug use. They all show my growth as a person. I wrote this book while stationed in a rehab facility, reflecting about my life. The good parts and the bad parts. I wanted to get my story out there for the people who are going through similar problems. You are not alone. It gets better. I also want to show people that drug addiction is not something a person chooses willingly. It is a disease that sneaks up on you. Also, kind of self therapy. Overall, a great read.
