Story1
Every Falling Star, the first book to portray contemporary North Korea to a young audience, is the intense memoir of a North Korean boy named Sungju who is forced at age 12 to live on the streets and fend for himself. To survive, Sungju creates a gang and lives by thieving, fighting, begging, and stealing rides on cargo trains. Sungju richly recreates his scabrous story, depicting what it was like for a boy alone to create a new family with his gang, his "brothers".

Story0
Quando è molto piccolo, e non cammina, Riccardo è definito da tutti "un bambino pigro". Solo a tre anni, grazie alle insistenze di due genitori amorevoli e testardi, gli viene diagnosticata la Pci, la Paralisi cerebrale infantile. Da quel momento, tutto cambia. Riccardo ha un nemico da odiare: la sua malattia. Un nemico che non lo lascia libero un attimo, e lo schiaccia a colpi di fatica, solitudine, tristezza. Un nemico che però, con gli anni, si trasforma in qualcosa di diverso.

Story0
On August 18, 1920, American women finally won the right to vote. Ratification of the 19th Amendment was the culmination of an almost 80-year fight in which some of the fiercest, most passionate women in history marched, protested, and sometimes broke the law in to achieve this huge leap toward equal rights. In this expansive yet personal volume, author Winifred Conkling covers not only the suffragists' achievements and politics but also the private journeys that fueled their passion and led them to become women's champions.

Story0
The women’s suffrage movement was decades in the making and came with many harsh setbacks. But it resulted in a permanent victory: women’s right to vote. How did the suffragists do it? One hundred years later, an eye-opening look at their playbook shows that some of their strategies seem oddly familiar. Women’s marches at inauguration time? Check. Publicity stunts, optics, and influencers? They practically invented them. Petitions, lobbying, speeches, raising money, and writing articles? All of that, too.
