Book Description
Whenever Christa Black looked in the mirror, she was waging a war with herself. Her hatred of her face and body drove her, as a young woman, into frantic overachievement, addiction, and an eating disorder that landed her in rehab. A preacher's kid, she'd grown up imagining God as a "thou shalt not" tyrant. It was only when she miraculously discovered God's unconditional love for her--physical imperfections, moral failings, and all--that she finally began to accept herself. As she tells her story, Christa shares the tools she uses to combat the self-rejection that harms so many people's lives. In this raw testimony, Christa Black takes women on a step-by-step journey of faith and positive belief to reveal that if God loves ugly, then we can too.

Book Description
A funny, moving, and true story of an ordinary boy with an extraordinary face that's perfect for fans of Wonder—now available in the U.S. When Robert Hoge was born, he had a tumor the size of a tennis ball in the middle of his face and short, twisted legs. Surgeons removed the tumor and made him a new nose from one of his toes. Amazingly, he survived—with a face that would never be the same. Strangers stared at him. Kids called him names, and adults could be cruel, too. Everybody seemed to agree that he was “ugly.” But Robert refused to let his face define him. He played pranks, got into trouble, had adventures with his big family, and finally found a sport that was perfect for him to play. And Robert came face to face with the biggest decision of his life, he followed his heart. This poignant memoir about overcoming bullying and thriving with disabilities shows that what makes us “ugly” also makes us who we are. It features a reflective foil cover and black-and-white illustrations throughout.

Book Description
Celebrating The Quiet Child: A Must Read For Every Parent, Teacher, Mentor, Sports Coach, Who Is Interested In Raising The Self-esteem of Kids And Teens From Prasenjeet Kumar, the author of Quiet Phoenix, the Amazon #1 Bestseller, comes a sequel, and a biography for kids aged 9-12 years, that no one who deals with introverted children should miss. The underlying theme of the book is that just as a Phoenix Bird is hardwired to be reborn from the ashes of her ancestors, her tears are meant to cure wounds and she symbolises undying hope and optimism, so is your Quiet child built for persistence, creativity, self-discipline, and for displaying a knack for self-learning, high emotional intelligence and an impeccable sense of moral responsibility. ˃˃˃ Instead of cherishing such rare traits Introverts are sadly often misunderstood by almost every one. * Parents worry if their children prefer spending time in solitude, probably day dreaming. * Teachers presume that if a child hesitates to answer questions, she must be having some kind of learning or even social disability. * Quiet Children have difficulties in making friends, with their classmates seeing them as “weird”, “rude” or “arrogant”. * They are seen as “over” sensitive to mean comments or bullying. * They appear to lack aggression or as some say 'the will to fight back’. * Overall, introverted children seem to be more flustered about almost every facet of life in noisy and large Public Schools. ˃˃˃ Any advice that Quiet children should be more 'outgoing’, 'sociable’ and 'active’ seems to be counter-productive. Any aggressive follow up on this advice often results in your Quiet child losing her self-esteem, forcing her to become even more withdrawn. ˃˃˃ With fables, stories and real incidents from the author’s own childhood, “Quiet Phoenix 2: From Failure to Fulfilment” is a memoir for teens and kids that Reiterates that introvert Children being asked to behave in a more extroverted fashion is like asking a young Phoenix bird to behave like an Eagle. Every child is born with some unique traits. The challenge is: how parents, teachers and friends can recognize, nurture and enhance those powers so that every child, quiet or loquacious, becomes a winner. ˃˃˃ “Quiet Phoenix 2: From Failure to Fulfilment” sincerely intends to help everyone dealing with ‘Quiet Children’ to cherish and celebrate for what they are. And to help them rise above everything; to lead them towards a path of happiness leaving behind all old memories of pain and isolation; and to turn them into life’s winners. Just like the Phoenix rising from the ashes. ˃˃˃ With real life characters like Ms. Brownie Points, Mr. Noisy Ferrari and Ms. Pencil Snatcher, this biography for teens and kids is intended for everyone--a parent, teacher, or sports Coach. Who wants to understand how to harness the powers of Quiet children in an extroverted world. And if you are an introvert adult, you may find this book useful in understanding yourself, your past and what you want out of life in the future. So what are you waiting for?

Book Description
We've all had those moments. The ones where you look in the mirror and nothing feels ok. For Anita Bhagwandas, this started when she was a child and it created an enduring internal torment about her looks. We're all told that this is just part of growing up, but it stays with us, evolving as we age. The internet tells us we should love ourselves, whilst bombarding us with images of airbrushed perfection, upholding centuries-old beauty standards which we can't always see. Our beauty rituals are so often based around things we think we need to fix, grow and develop - sometimes tipping into dangerous obsession. So, what seismic shift does it take to break free from this mentality? In Ugly, Anita uncovers where these beauty standards started, unpicks why they've been perpetuated and unmasks the structures that continue to support them. From the ever-growing cosmetic surgery industry, to the hidden pitfalls of 'pretty privilege', it is time to finally break free from those limiting beauty standards, because feeling ugly should have nothing to do with how we look, and everything to do with who wants us to feel lacking.
