It's going to take more than a haircut and some flowers to set things right. But when her anxiety becomes too much, everything begins to fall apart. With the help of Homer Juarez, the poetry-citing soccer star who believes in June even when she doesn't believe in herself, she starts a secret library garden and hatches a plan to make her dreams come true. And she and her single mama will own their power as fierce, independent females. She shaves her head and sets two goals: she will beat her anxiety and be the lion she knows she can be, instead of the mouse everyone sees. ![]() Twelve-year-old June Delancey is kicking summer off with a bang. ![]() Book Synopsis From the acclaimed author of Tune It Out and Roll with It comes a "needed, hopeful" ( Booklist) middle grade book about a young girl who sets out to overcome her anxiety over the course of one life-changing summer. ![]() ![]() The problem is that Lovecraft was a deeply racist and xenophobic man.

Many of the speakers were from Cornell University and the surrounding communities. Unfortunately, not much information is given about the individual speakers. The story behind the creation of the "interstellar message" is chronicled in the book, "Murmurs of Earth", by Carl Sagan, et al. Linda Salzman Sagan was given the task of assembling the greetings. Because of the launch schedule, Sagan (and those he got to help him) was not given a lot of time. NASA asked Dr Carl Sagan of Cornell University to assemble a greeting and gave him the freedom to choose the format and what would be included. In addition to pictures and music and sounds from earth, greetings in 55 languages were included.

Rebekah Weatherspoon is a hybrid author who has both self-published and traditionally published romance novels and novellas. Instead it gives room for Black women of various body types and with various traits to be. ![]() She also created the website Women of Color in Romance as a trans inclusive place to support and promote women of color in romance fiction. TREASURE is bold and unflinching in describing the beauty of Black women's bodies in unambiguous terms - terms that celebrate everything from thickness to curves to dark skin, while not pigeonholing into one specific type of 'perfect' Black female body. And I haven’t stopped reading her romances since! Her books exemplify diversity in many ways, with many different characters who are Black, plus-sized, disabled, dealing with trauma, queer, and/or into kink. ![]() ![]() I found out about Rebekah Weatherspoon on my first visit to The Ripped Bodice, a romance-only bookstore in Los Angeles.
