Book Description
The best seats Lisa Kohn ever had at Madison Square Garden were at her mother's mass wedding, and the best cocaine she ever had was from her father's friend, the judge. Born to hippie parents and raised in New York City's East Village in the 1970s, Lisa's early years were a mixture of encounter groups, primal screams, macrobiotic diets, communes, Indian ashrams, Jefferson Airplane concerts in Central Park, and watching naked actors on off-Broadway stages during the musical HAIR. By the time her older brother was ten, Lisa's father had him smoking pot. By the time Lisa was ten, Lisa's mother had them pledging their lives to the Unification Church (the "Moonies") and self-appointed Messiah, Reverend Sun Myung Moon. As a child Lisa knew the ecstatic comfort of inclusion in a cult and as a teenager the torment of rebelling against it. As an adult, Lisa struggled to break free from the hold of abuse and the scars in her heart, mind, and psyche--battling her own addictions and inner demons and searching her soul for a sense of self-worth. Told in spirited candor, to the moon and back reveals how one can leave behind absurdity and horror and create a life of intention and joy. This is the fascinating tale of a story rarely told in its full complexity.

Book Description
Bringing Up Bébé meets Last Child in the Woods in this “fascinating exploration of the importance of the outdoors to childhood development” (Kirkus Reviews) from a Swedish-American mother who sets out to discover if the nature-centric parenting philosophy of her native Scandinavia holds the key to healthier, happier lives for her American children. Could the Scandinavian philosophy of “There’s no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothes” hold the key to happier, healthier lives for American children? When Swedish-born Linda Åkeson McGurk moved to Indiana, she quickly learned that the nature-centric parenting philosophies of her native Scandinavia were not the norm. In Sweden, children play outdoors year-round, regardless of the weather, and letting babies nap outside in freezing temperatures is common and recommended by physicians. Preschoolers spend their days climbing trees, catching frogs, and learning to compost, and environmental education is a key part of the public-school curriculum. In the US, McGurk found the playgrounds deserted, and preschoolers were getting drilled on academics with little time for free play in nature. And when a swimming outing at a nearby creek ended with a fine from a park officer, McGurk realized that the parenting philosophies of her native country and her adopted homeland were worlds apart. Struggling to decide what was best for her family, McGurk embarked on a six-month journey to Sweden with her two daughters to see how their lives would change in a place where spending time in nature is considered essential to a good childhood. Insightful and lively, There’s No Such Thing as Bad Weather is a fascinating personal narrative that illustrates how Scandinavian culture could hold the key to raising healthy, resilient, and confident children in America.

Little Miss Linda's mother is extremely instrumental in creating a safe environment, which allows Little Miss Linda to grow to appreciate, celebrate, and cherish her hair. Little Miss Linda's hair journey to accept her hair is contagious and she is able to get those around her to appreciate their hair too. This book is designed to enable young children especially Black children to feel positive and accept their beautiful hair. It promotes positive hair-esteem, self-love, and encourages all children to accept the beautiful texture of their hair and dispel hair bullying. Please join "Little Miss Linda's" global campaign against hair bullying by purchasing this book and signing the pledge!. Dr. Tommie 'Tonea' Stewart wrote, The book of innocence "I Love My Happy Hair" explores and addresses the bias expressed in the American culture. While these negative influences are real and continue to exist, time and self-discovery finds its date and place to consummate the beauty of self-validation and God given protection. In brief, such expressive denial and persecution has occurred and recurred throughout history. Yet, those who are considered with less, in fact, are blessed with more (i.e. Nina Simone, the Singer; The Williams Sisters, Tennis Players; Mae Jemison, the Astronaut; Sojourner Truth, the Activist; Maya Angelo, the Writer; Margaret Walker, the Writer; Harriet Tubman, Black Moses; 2020 Miss Universe; and Miss America). To this end, "I Love My Happy Hair" is another testament for stepping over what seems to be an obstacle onto a positive release for self-love. -Actress.--Former Dean of the College of Visual and Performing Arts.--Alabama State University . Readers' Favorite Four Star Review by Amy Louise Hill Linda J.M. Holloway has created an engaging and relatable story that children will both love and learn from. It's sad to think that children feel insecure about the way they look, whether it's through bullying or personal feelings. No child should dislike who they are and how they look. I Love My happy Hair is the perfect book to inspire body positivity in children, as I believe it will change the way they see themselves entirely once they read Linda's story. Linda J.M. Holloway should be proud of what she's created and I want to wish her all the best in her writing journey. Keep up the good work!
