Book Description
Youth Fiction and Trans Representation is the first book that wholly addresses the growth of trans and gender variant representation in literature, television, and films for children and young adults in the twenty-first century. Ranging across an array of media—including picture books, novels, graphic novels, animated cartoons, and live-action television and feature films—Youth Fiction and Trans Representation examines how youth texts are addressing and contributing to ongoing shifts in understandings of gender in the new millennium. While perhaps once considered inappropriate for youth, and continuing to face backlash, trans and gender variant representation in texts for young people has become more common, which signals changes in understandings of childhood and adolescence, as well as gender expression and identity. Youth Fiction and Trans Representation provides a broad outline of developments in trans and gender variant depictions for young people in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries and closely analyzes a series of millennial literary and screen texts to consider how they communicate a range of, often competing, ideas about gender, identity, expression, and embodiment to implied child and adolescent audiences.

Book Description
The story of Superman has always been my childhood favorite. The creators of Superman were Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. They were classmates at Cleveland Glenville High School. They signed their DC Comics contract and received their first royalty check for Superman's creation on March 1, 1938. I was born on March 1, 1949, in Glenville Hospital, only the length of a football field from the house where Siegel and Shuster created Superman. Drawn to the gravitational pull of Superman, I dreamed of young kids having superpowers that are used only for the common good of mankind. I knew a girl named Ginny who wore polka dot dresses. I asked her what she would do if her polka dots possessed magic only for her. I never forgot that idea of "Little Ginny Polkadot" who, as Virginia Rose Stewart, was a seventh grader in Manhattan when her mother, Mandy, suddenly was killed in an "accident." Ginny never knew her father, Ramone, who had mysteriously disappeared before Ginny's birth. Ramone left Mandy a gift for their unborn child, a crystal lattice which, if used in the right way, gave Ginny unexplained superpowers. The world's evil nuclear powers China, Russia, and North Korea race each other to discover Ginny's true identity, kidnap her, in their schemes to control those superpowers for their own purposes. Little Ginny wants to understand her father and her own mission in life. This is the first of a series of twelve books about the challenges and adventures of the superpower of "Little Ginny Polkadot."

Book Description
Justine and her close friend Ka work for the Paris fashion house of Schiaparelli in the early fifties, when French haute couture is bursting with glamour and intrigue. Each has a reason for making a lot of money rapidly. Together, they establish a pipeline to import opium from the Highlands of North Vietnam to the drawing rooms of their wealthy clients in France. Organised crime in Saigon, controlling the opium trade under the patronage of powerful connections, moves to wipe out the competitive challenge presented by Justine and Ka. It becomes clear they are up against two extraordinary people. Justine, now a fashion model, was trained to operate undercover and kill silently by the British secret service in World War Two. Ka is Vietnamese and a top haute couture seamstress with threads of steel under her skin. Justine wants the money from the opium business to start a new life in politics. She is determined to become a deputy in the French National Assembly. Ka wants her share to help her family in Hanoi obtain treatment for her sick brother. Justine calls on past wartime allegiances to strengthen her firepower and protect herself and Ka. Bill, a former RAF pilot is now flying contraband between Hanoi and Saigon. Henri and Leo are in the front line in the bitter struggle between France and Ho Chi Minh’s freedom fighters. This powerful combination of friends go onto the attack as Justine and Ka fight back, and France faces its destiny in Indochina at the battle of Dien Bien Phu.

Book Description
Madeleine Greenhill was rich, beautiful, reckless…now she’s dead, dumped in the water. Her mother Misericordiae is the most feared woman in Hera City, which puts added pressure on investigating detective Eugenie Auf der Maur. Gutsy, smart and likeable, ‘Genie’ thought she knew the strange, all-female world of Hera inside-out. She was wrong, and gets drawn into a labyrinth of sex and money, power and religion, double-cross and corruption. Nothing is at seems and nobody can be trusted as she becomes obsessed with finding the girl’s killer. Hard-edged and soft-hearted, The Polka Dot Girl combines a serpentine plot, bristling dialogue and shadowy, sensuous atmosphere to create a classic noir-style mystery: Sam Spade in lipstick and a dress. In Hera City, the female of the species really can be deadly. ,
