Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Triplet sisters are left in a forest by a woodcutter father and forced to find their own way in the world. From this fairytale beginning, three resolutions are made -- one sister walks one way to find purpose, one the other to find adventure, and the third stays right where she is, to create a home. Years later, having circled a globe and fought vikings, toppled lighthouses, tamed wilds and achieved greatness, the three meet again, as women.A moving and irresistibly charming modern-day fable for young and old, this is a story born first as a play, and staged by 33 companies in five countries and four languages.Praise for the play:'This Girl Laughs follows in the best tradition of fairytales through the ages - an engagingly told yarn for the children of today, with lessons for adults also' - Artshub'The most important thing is always the telling of the story - children demand imagination and clarity while adults deserve it. By that measure, and plenty of others beside, This Girl Laughs succeeds admirably' - The West Australian'Finegan Kruckemeyer just might be Australia's Tim Burton (the highest compliment I could ever pay anyone) and this is a story that has the potential to be timeless like some of Burton's masterpieces' - Colosoul'Somewhere between hilarious and human' - Luca (aged 9), Big Kids MagazinePraise for Kruckemeyer's other works:'Like a daydream born beneath a dining-room table' - The Irish Times'Like a beautiful children's book, a treasured bedtime story with illustrations which come to life before our eyes' - The Advertiser, Australia***** 'So achingly magical and charming, so full of whimsicality and merry eccentricity that when the reality begins to strike home... those with iron self-control will just swallow very hard. The rest of us will try to forage quietly for a hankie... A marvel of exquisite theatre-craft' - The Herald, Scotland'Not only works, it wows' - New York Post

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parents, young people, community organizers, and educators describe how they are fighting systemic racism in schools by building a new intersectional educational justice movement. Illuminating the struggles and triumphs of the emerging educational justice movement, this anthology tells the stories of how black and brown parents, students, educators, and their allies are fighting back against systemic inequities and the mistreatment of children of color in low-income communities. It offers a social justice alternative to the corporate reform movement that seeks to privatize public education through expanding charter schools and voucher programs. To address the systemic racism in our education system and in the broader society, the contributors argue that what is needed is a movement led by those most affected by injustice--students of color and their parents--that builds alliances across sectors and with other social justice movements addressing immigration, LGBTQ rights, labor rights, and the school-to-prison pipeline. Representing a diverse range of social justice organizations from across the US, including the Chicago Teachers Union and the Genders and Sexualities Alliance Network, the essayists recount their journeys to movement building and offer practical organizing strategies and community-based alternatives to traditional education reform and privatization schemes. Lift Us Up! will outrage, inform, and mobilize parents, educators, and concerned citizens about what is wrong in American schools today and how activists are fighting for and achieving change.

Book excerpt: “The enchanting saga of two Irish sisters…This new chapter of Titanic lore is worth plunging into.” —Publishers Weekly From the acclaimed author of The Girls of Ennismore comes a captivating and extraordinary tale of perseverance and bravery. This touching saga of sisterhood—perfect for fans of Fiona Davis and Marie Benedict—follows two young Irish women yearning for independence and adventure, as they set sail on RMS Titanic—the “ship of dreams”—only to be faced with the tragedy of that fabled maiden voyage… Delia Sweeney has always been unlike her older sister--fair and delicate compared to tall, statuesque Nora, whose hair is as dark as Donegal turf. In other ways too, the sisters are leagues apart. Nora is her mother's darling, favored at every turn, and expected to marry into wealth. Delia, constantly slighted, finds a measure of happiness helping her da on the farm. The rest of the time, she reads about far-off places that seem sure to remain a fantasy. Until the day a letter arrives from America . . . A distant relative has provided the means for Delia and Nora to go to New York. Delia will be a lowly maid in a modest household, while Nora will be governess for a well-to-do family. In Queenstown, Cork, they board the Titanic, a majestic new ocean liner making its maiden voyage. Any hope Delia carried that she and her sister might become closer during the trip soon vanishes. For there are far greater perils to contend with as the ship makes its way across the Atlantic . . . In the wake of that fateful journey, Delia makes an impulsive choice--and takes Nora's place as governess. Her decision sparks an adventure that leads her from Fifth Avenue to Dallas, Texas, where oilfields bring unimagined riches to some, despair to others. Delia grows close to her vulnerable young charge, and to the girl's father. But her deception will have repercussions impossible to foresee, even as it brings happiness within reach for the first time . . .
