Paperback. Condición: Good. Coach's Hue is a tale of mystery, heartbreak, adventure and heroism: a new and hybridized being is formulated from Mother Nature's perseverance to survive humanity. A natural mystic guides Coach throughout his journey as humanity continues to ignorantly ravage the Earth with no regard for the negative effects and byproducts it produces along the way. In order for Mother Nature to persist, she is forced to take matters into her own proverbial hands. Born of The Great Smoky Mountains, Coach possesses several nature-derived abilities that he enacts with the people who support him as catalysts in his unique life. Just like the good comes with the bad, cause has an effect, and yin always has a yang. Coach must ultimately release what he absorbs throughout his journey. Coach is perpetually guided by Mother Nature and his antics are charming for most of the people he encounters, but not everyone is swayed by such exuberance. As life continues to unfold for Coach, the environment is deteriorating due to human negligence. This story is very humane whilst proportionately mysterious, and it possesses significant parallels to humanity's current and collective relationship with its environment. Everything we do as a species has an impact on the environment we all live within. The human species is meant to coexist harmoniously with the Earth. Yet, somewhere along the way this principal was lost. Mother Nature must be cruel to be kind. Nowak, Veronica (ilustrador).…

Paperback. Condición: Good. It is 1883, and America is at a crossroads. At a tiny college in Upstate New York, an idealistic young professor has managed to convince Mark Twain, Frederick Douglass, Herman Melville, Walt Whitman, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Confederate memoirist Forrest Taylor, and romance novelist Lucy Comstock to participate in the first (and last) Auburn Writers? Conference for a public discussion about the future of the nation. By turns brilliantly comic and startlingly prescient, The Auburn Conference vibrates with questions as alive and urgent today as they were in 1883?the chronic American conundrums of race, class, and gender, and the fate of the democratic ideal.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. "Fascinating profiles" of remarkable nuns, from an eighty-three-year-old Ironman champion to a crusader against human trafficking (Daily News [New York]). "In an age of villainy, war and inequality, it makes sense that we need superheroes," writes Nicholas Kristof of The New York Times. "And after trying Superman, Batman and Spider-Man, we may have found the best superheroes yet: Nuns." In If Nuns Ruled the World, veteran reporter Jo Piazza overthrows the popular perception of nuns as killjoy schoolmarms,  instead revealing them as the most vigorous catalysts of change in an otherwise repressive society. Meet Sister Simone Campbell, who traversed the United States challenging a Congressional budget that threatened to severely undermine the well-being of poor Americans; Sister Megan Rice, who is willing to spend the rest of her life in prison if it helps eliminate nuclear weapons; and the inimitable Sister Jeannine Gramick, who is fighting for acceptance of gays and lesbians in the Catholic Church. During a time when American nuns are often under attack from the very institution to which they devote their lives--and the values of the institution itself are hotly debated--these sisters offer thought-provoking and inspiring stories. As the Daily Beast put it, "Anybody looking to argue there is a place for Catholicism in the modern world should just stand on a street corner handing out Piazza's book.".…

Hardback. Condición: Good. When Nick and Kia arrive for try-outs for the basketball team they played on the previous year, they are surprised to meet their new coach. Coach Barkley is a former college star known for his fierce desire to win. Though the coach has been away from the game for many years, his competitive instincts are as strong as ever and his aggressive coaching techniques are a new experience for these kids. Suddenly making the rep team no longer seems the sure thing that Nick and Kia expected when they came to try-outs. This is hard on Nick and Kia, but especially difficult for the coach's son, L.B., who is also trying out for the team. When the coach matches them up against a team of older players and then refuses to accept their loss, the kids begin to wonder if they even want to make this team. Nick, Kia and L.B. finally have to decide whether to play for a tyrant or to take a stand on principle and face the consequences.…
