A Children's Book Council "Hot Off the Press" Selection for November 2022!
We began our alphabet series with the action-packed THINGS WE DO, featuring kid-friendly verbs like CLAP (Joseph Bruchac), DANCE (Nikki Grimes), EAT (Jack Prelutsky), and FLY (Carole Boston Weatherford). The response to "Eat" byJack Prelutsky was so enthusiastic that we decided to devote a whole book to food with THINGS WE EAT, where we included many global staples such as RICE (Jacqueline Woodson). We then explored our emotions in THINGS WE FEEL, honoring our wide range of emotions, even our WORRIED (Naomi Shihab Nye) times. We're now ready to help kids celebrate another favorite topic: clothes and other THINGS WE WEAR, with gems by Douglas Florian, Padma Venkatraman, and 24 additional voices.
In this book, we wear not just clothes - but aprons, boots, costumes, dresses, earmuffs, flip-flops, glasses, helmets, ice skates, jeans, kippahs, life jackets, masks, necklaces, overalls, pajamas, quilts, raincoats, saris, t-shirts, uniforms, visors, watches, x-ray aprons, yukata, and zippers! Readers (and preschool "book-lookers") will see themselves very clearly in the wide variety of children and activities depicted in these diverse and inclusive photos.
The poets featured in this book are: Robyn Hood Black, Willeena Booker, Sandy Brehl, Judy Bryan, Rose Cappelli, Janet Clare Fagal, Karen Elise Finch, Patricia J. Franz, Theresa Gaughan, Xelena González, Katey Howes, Molly Lorenz, Amy Milholland, Moe Phillips, Donna JT Smith, Holly Thompson, Linda Kulp Trout, Fernanda Valentino, Amy Ludwig VanDerwater, Padma Venkatraman, Jenna Waldman, Vicki Wilke, Matthew Winter, Janet Wong, and Helen Kemp Zax.
As with other books in this series (THINGS WE DO; THINGS WE EAT; THINGS WE FEEL), 100% of the profits will be donated to the IBBY Children in Crisis Fund.

Like it was written by George Santos
Received an Advanced Reader Copy from a friend. I am an avid true crime reader and upon completion I question if the author is credible. The timeline does not add up for his age and the times of his alleged involvement in organized crime. Some of the things in the book he is alleged to have said and done I remember almost word for word from movies I had previously watched. He literally stole a scene from the movie the accountant with Ben Affleck and said that he did it. I did a little research after completing the book and learned that this author was also claiming in 2010 that he was a long time member of the Bloods Gang. That coupled with the above leads me to believe that it is nothing more than fantasy. Do not waste your time or money

What a difficult story to tell. I appreciate the honesty and vulnerability. Definitely made me think.
I had hopes for this book but was not expecting what I would read within the pages. If your kink is deplorable grammar, incoherent sentences, and inconsistent messages, then this book is for you. At first, I thought the book I received was not the book I ordered. But as I dived in, it was very confusing. I would not recommend this book to anyone
There are not many reviews on the internet for this book. In researching the many stores selling the book, it was self-published which makes a lot of sense. The online description is written perfectly, so reading the actual book was very difficult. Pages two and three are written clearly as well as the table of contents. Pages 155 and 156 are also written logically.
It appears this book was written, then sent through a program like “Grammarly.” Once completed it seems it was published without being re-read or edited. The first clue was the title narrative that used “Has” instead of “As.” The table of contents is one page off from what it shows on pages four though seven. Many of the “q’s” are written as “[]”
Below are some examples of what was within the pages of this book written verbatim:
“Chains & Discipline/ Domination & entry/ Sadism & Masochism (BDSM) is a wide classification of bed room play.” Page 9
“When bringing up the topic of chains, you are actually asking a person to offer you their depend on, their flexibility, and also possibly their suggestion of security in exchange for sensual/sexual enjoyment, power-play, and also feasible re-evaluation of your very own connection.” Page 39
“Techni[]ue can take a selection of kinds and also be as easy or facility as you pick to (new paragraph) bargain for your details scenario” Page 52
“BDSM stands for chains as well as entry, technique and also supremacy as well as sadism and also masochism.” Page 125
“SHELF means Risk Aware Consensual Kink.” Page 130
“Approval is whatever.” Page 152
“your twist isn’t my twist, yet your twist is OKAY.” Page 153
“You can be a top, base, or button” Page 153
Good service, good book. Just what I was looking for! Thank you!
