Dottir Press Intersecciónalianza: hacemos espacio para todxs
Book SynopsisUNO DE LOS LIBROS "ANTIRACISTA PARA NIÑOS Y ADOLESCENTES" RECOMENDADOS POR HUFFPOST FEATURED ON KEYS SOULCARE AS "5 STUNNING VISUAL BOOKS FOR ALL AGES" Escrito por tres sociólogas de color, Intersecciónalianza: hacemos espacio para todxs es una entrada jubilosa al feminismo interseccional. Los nueve personajes se describen con orgullo a sí mismxs y sus origenes. El libro explora temas de diversidad, como discapacidad física y ser un intermediario de idiomas para su familia, de una manera que hace que lxs niñxs se sientan orgullosxs de su historia personal y se conecten con la lucha colectiva por la justicia. La forma en que los personajes se conectan entre sí promueve un mensaje de aliado e igualdad. Cuando la vida se pone difícil, lxs niñxs se apoyan mutuamente por lo que son: Parker defiende a Kate, un personaje no binario que evita las faldas por una capa de superhéroe; Heejung da la bienvenida a Yuri, una refugiada que escapa de la guerra, a su comunidad; y la familia de Alejandra cuida de Parker después de la escuela mientras su madre trabaja. Como defensor del respeto y la inclusión, Intersecciónalianza es una herramienta necesaria para aprender a aceptar la diferencia, en lugar de ahuyentarla. El libro presenta hermosas ilustraciones en cada página de Ashley Seil Smith, así como poderosas presentaciones de la activista y profesora de Derecho Dra. Kimberlé Crenshaw, quien acuñó el término "interseccionalidad", y Dra. Ange-Marie Hancock Alfaro, autora de Interseccionalidad: una historia intelectual.Trade ReviewIntersecciónalianza: hacemos espacio para todxs es otro favorito ... Los lectores pueden esperar aprender sobre cómo las identidades que se cruzan, como la raza y el género, pueden afectar la forma en que las personas navegan por el mundo y cómo pueden beneficiarse o ser oprimido por otros. —HUFFPOST [Una] celebración de la solidaridad, la alianza y la comunidad ... Un recurso acogedor para conversaciones sobre igualdad y justicia social que muestra a los lectores cómo las identidades se componen de innumerables influencias. —PUBLISHERS WEEKLY La diversidad ocupa un lugar central en esta bienvenida introducción al feminismo interseccional, una alegre afirmación de cómo todos estamos conectados. —TIME Magazine El mensaje central del libro ... ofrece un estribillo memorable que los cuidadores y educadores estarán ansiosos por integrar en los mantras diarios. Muy recomendable. —SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL (*Starred Review) Si alguna vez un libro perteneció al consultorio, la clínica, la guardería, el refugio, el salón de clases y el hogar de cada pediatra, este es ... un asombroso manual básico sobre cómo incorporar la totalidad ... valioso para todas las edades. —LIT HUB El concepto de interseccionalidad ... se desglosa con facilidad y claridad ... alegre, vibrante. —Booklist Aquí hay un libro para aumentar la conciencia de las hermosas y diferentes experiencias de vida de muchos ... El principio y el reverso ayudarán a una mayor discusión y empoderarán a los cuidadores para discutir con confianza nuestra necesidad social de comprensión y compasión para todos. —Readertotz Este maravilloso libro aborda los principales problemas de justicia social de nuestro tiempo de una manera accesible. Los autores celebran la diversidad e ilustran las ventajas de prestar atención a la interseccionalidad. Al "hacer espacio", los niños de este libro crean un espacio en el que la singularidad de cada individuo puede brillar, iluminando la vida de todos. —DR.

Cameron & Company Inc Wave
Book SynopsisA coming-of-age novel in verse set in 1980s Southern California, about a Persian American girl who rides the waves, falls, and finds her way back to the shore Thirteen-year-old Ava loves to surf and to sing. Singing and reading Rumi poems settle her mild OCD, and catching waves with her best friend, Phoenix, lets her fit in—her olive skin looks tan, not foreign. But then Ava has to spend the summer before ninth grade volunteering at the hospital, to follow in her single mother’s footsteps to become a doctor. And when Phoenix’s past lymphoma surges back, not even surfing, singing, or poetry can keep them afloat, threatening Ava’s hold on the one place and the one person that make her feel like she belongs. With ocean-like rhythm and lyricism, Wave is about a girl who rides the waves, tumbles, and finds her way back to the shore.Trade ReviewProcessing her feelings through music empowers Ava and gives her a new understanding of home and the connections she shares with others. Raw and powerful, this free verse novel honestly explores issues of identity, culture, grief, and hope... Rich, layered, and heart-rending. * Kirkus Reviews *Farid’s poetry rides the page like a wave, charting the ups and downs of Ava’s emotions. . .The verse format makes this text extremely accessible, and readers will be delighted to find elements of Ava’s Persian heritage and 1980s childhood also woven throughout. * School Library Journal *Farid brings her expertise as an MD to Ava’s story, simplifying the complexity of lymphoma while packing an emotional punch with the musical references that Ava uses to cope. * Booklist *Farid’s word choices are often as meaningful as their design: Water bubbles 'tumble tumble / rumble' onomatopoetically, and careful readers will appreciate the many different appearances and articulations of the titular 'wave.' * BookPage *

Like a multicolor pencil palette, what defines human beings is their uniqueness and their diversity.Vega and her colored pencils were inseparable. Together they created the most impressive drawings that were later exposed in the best museum in the world: the refrigerator at home. Vega used all the colors you can imagine for her drawings: red, yellow, blue, gold… At school, Vega was immersed in one of her new creations when her friend Alex stopped by, and peered into the box of pencils Vega had on her table. “Can you lend me the skin-colored pencil, please?” he asked. Skin-colored? Vega and Alex wondered why there is such a color in the box.
