Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The beautiful Martina Josefina Catalina Cucaracha doesn't know coffee beans about love and marriage, so when suitors come calling, what is she to do? Luckily, she has her Cuban family to help! While some of the Cucarachas offer Martina gifts to make her more attractive, only Abuela, her grandmother, gives her some useful advice: spill coffee on his shoes to see how he handles anger. At first, Martina is skeptical of her Abuela's suggestion, but when suitor after suitor fails the Coffee Test, she wonders if a little green cockroach can ever find true love. After reading this award-winning retelling of the Cuban folktale, readers will never look at a cockroach the same way again. Carmen Agra Deedy delivers a delightfully inventive Cuban twist on the beloved Martina folktale, complete with a dash of café Cubano.

Book excerpt: This book is set in 1960's and early 1970's, with a strong female lead. Martina, a young ex-military German woman, is leaving the misogyny and poverty of a Vatican dominated Europe. She is heading for a peaceful, secular and female-run Middle East. Along the way, she seeks retribution against four men who had previously attacked her. She fights sea pirates and rescues three trafficked women and a bonded child, before entering the Middle East hidden in a fishing boat Fire and fury of terrorism enters the Middle East at the 1972 Baghdad Olympic Games, where German terrorists kidnap Israeli athletes. This is where Martina is recruited to the Intelligence Services and becomes a spook. Martina fights terrorists, child abusers and a militia group. She finds the parents of the boy rescued from bondage and uncovers a terror link between an African diamond mine, the German State, an Israeli patriot and a WW2 concentration camp.

Each week, she attends ballet and sets her spirit free. The music fills her with great joy, and she dances to her hearts contentbut she doesnt listen to her teacher. Martina just does whatever she wants to do instead. Her lack of discipline inspires her parents to take her to a ballet performance so that she can see the hard work of a real ballerina. She does learn a few things at the show, but Martina is still a wild thing at the barre. When the director of the Nouvelle Ballet Troupe comes to Martinas class in search of a young ballet dancer with promise, Martina is thrilled. The director needs a young lady to be featured in The Nutcracker, so at the audition, Martina gives it her allbut she still wont listen. Martina must learn the hard way that ballerinas are calm, poised, and good at taking instruction. Will little Martina achieve her dream of making it onstage or will a difficult lesson and a setback make her want to give up?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A name that is deeply associated with ladies’ tennis in the latter half of twentieth century is that of Czech origin player, Navratilova. With 56 Grand Slam tennis championships, this lady of steel took the sports world by storm and showed that women can play with power and strength as much as the men. In the course of her career, Navratilova won eighteen singles Grand Slam championships including a record nine at the grass court Mecca, Wimbledon. After retirement from active sports, Navratilova brought her brand of guts and grit to gay rights activism as well. Today she figures on the list of top twenty athletes of the twentieth century compiled by ESPN in 1999 and most importantly, she is one of the only two women to make it to the list.
