Book excerpt: Grandmother Moon and Other Mother Stories: Book One offers traditional and new original folktales that explore the love, joy and challenges between mothers and children. Perfect for mothers and children to read aloud, or you can listen to the audio book by Becky Parker Geist. "Epaminondas," a traditional folktale told to Becky Parker Geist by her mother, is about a boy who tries so hard to please his mother, but can't seem to get it right. "Grandmother Moon and the Homeless Child" is a touching story about searching for home. A little blue bird and a rock child play major roles in "Abuela and the Rock People." And Louisa-May's mischievous little sister Angel causes trouble in "Mama, Angel and the Tree Dragon." In "Strawberry Moon," Mother Moon helps her daughter express herself colorfully. "The stories are clear, dramatic, inviting and delicious. I love them. This is marvelous work! Bravo!" -- Jay O'Callahan, Storyteller. National Endowment of the Arts recipient. Lifetime Achievement Award National Storytelling Network, Commissioned by NASA to create and perform a story in honor of NASA's fiftieth anniversary "A delightful collection of lovingly told and affirming stories filled with timeless magical transformations and a traditional humorous folktale -- all addressing the mother-child relationship." -- Ruth Stotter, Past Chairman, American Folklore Society Aesop Committee; Former Director, Dominican University (California) Certificate-in-Storytelling Program

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A central aim of motherhood studies is to examine and theorize normative motherhood. Where does it come from? What are its defining features and demands? How does it work as a regulatory discourse and practice across differences of age, class, race, ability, sexuality, and region? What is the impact of normative motherhood on women' s lives? What does an intersectional analysis of normative motherhood reveal? How is normative motherhood reflected and enacted in public policy, workplace practices, family arrangements and so on? How is normative motherhood represented and resisted in literature, art, photography, and film? How do or may women resist normative motherhood? This collection explores these questions of normative motherhood under three interrelated topics: Regulations, Representations, and Reclamations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roy G. Biv’s life looked good on the outside but there was something missing from his life, and he couldn’t figure it out. Ultimately, one night he admitted to himself that he felt dull, colorless and unimaginative; that very night, during the full moon, he looked up at the sky and asked for help to create a more vibrant and energetic life style. Quietly, Grandmother Moon peeked into his room and she spoke to him as he slept under his heavy wooly blanket. In her own delightful manner, she introduced moonbeam teachings on the amazing secrets of color and energy. Grandmother Moon promised to visit him during the full moon to bring him valuable information on colors, scents, foods, music, yoga, and swirling circles of energy. Altogether these natural elements help to support the five senses and overtime they can re-establish a natural flow of imagination, creativity and vitality. Upon waking Roy was confused, had the moon really talked with him? Maybe! He was curious, but cautious!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young adult novel recounting the devastation of a victim of Japanese military sexual slavery • The first young adult novel to paint a vivid and realistic depiction of the “comfort women” • The story of the young girls whose bodies and souls were trampled in their blossoming youth as they were dragged from their hometowns across foreign lands from Inner Mongolia and Shanghai, China, to Leyte Island in the Philippines Many are familiar with the history of the “comfort women,” the victims of Japanese military sexual slavery, but how much do they really know? Few fully understand exactly why and how the girls came to be “comfort women,” the scope of the assault they endured at the “comfort stations” set up throughout regions colonized by Japan including Korea, and how they lived out their lives after they returned Korea post-liberation. There are limits to how much of the truth can be exposed to children and teens due to the sensitive nature of the subject, which is why previously published children’s and young adult novels that have attempted to address this tragedy fell short of capturing the actual extent of the damage and suffering. Simply acknowledging the tragedy as a historical fact and fully portraying the depth of reality and pain of the victims are vastly different propositions, which makes the publication of Trampled Blossoms, an honest and vivid depiction of the victims’ accounts of sexual slavery under the Japanese military, all the more meaningful. * This is a work of fiction based on true historical facts, in-person interviews, and testimonies of the “comfort women.” The names and details of certain real persons, places, and incidents have been changed in the novel, and all other characters, places, and events are products of the author’s imagination.
