Book Description
As the sun begins to set, arctic animals scurry to prepare for six months of darkness and cold. Tuktuk the collared lemming is almost ready for the long winter night – all he needs is warm fur to line his nest. When one furry kamik (boot) slips off an Inuit driver’s sled, Tuktuk is in luck! But as he drags it home, Putak the polar bear, Aput the arctic fox, and Masak the caribou eye this little lemming’s prize and want it for their own. Can Tuktuk outwit the other animals and convince them that one furry kamik is no good for anyone bigger than a lemming?

Book Description
A witty and warm-hearted novel about a trans teen finding his place in the world perfect for fans of Red, White and Royal Blue There’s only one thing standing between Finch Kelly and a full-blown case of high school senioritis: the National Speech & Debate Tournament. Taking home the gold would not only be the pinnacle of Finch’s debating career, but the perfect way to launch himself into his next chapter: college in Washington, DC, and a history-making career as the first trans congressman. What could possibly go wrong? Well, for starters, Finch could develop a teeny tiny crush on his very attractive, very taken, and very gay debate partner, Jonah. Never mind that Finch has never considered whether he’s interested in more than just girls. And that dream of college in DC? Finch hasn’t exactly been accepted anywhere yet, let alone received the full-ride scholarship he’ll need to make this dream a reality. Worst of all, though, is this year’s topic for Nationals: transgender rights. If he wants to cinch the gold, and get into college, Finch might have to argue against his own humanity. People say there are two sides to every argument. But, as Finch is about to discover, some things—like who you are and who you love—are not up for debate.

Book Description
An extraordinary piece of international survival literature, joining the likes of Primo Levi and Anne Frank. In 1941, 14-year-old Dalia and her family are deported from their native Lithuania to a labour camp in Siberia. As the strongest member of her family she submits to twelve hours a day of manual labour. At the age of 21, she escapes the gulag and returns to Lithuania. She writes her memories on scraps of paper and buries them in the garden, fearing they might be discovered by the KGB. They are not found until 1991, four years after her death. This is the story Dalia buried. The immediacy of her writing bears witness not only to the suffering she endured but also the hope that sustained her. It is a Lithuanian tale that, like its author, beats the odds to survive. Why Peirene chose to publish this book: There is only one word to describe this book, extraordinary. It blew me away when I first read it in German translation. Dalia's account goes far beyond a memoir. This is an outstanding piece of literature which should be read by anyone who wishes to understand the Soviet repression. 'A distressing historic document and a literary work of great significance.' Neue Zürcher Zeitung 'An incredible force of language ... the story of constant indignation.' JFrankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung

Book Description
Tundra Tales is a story of life in the Far North. As a public health nurse I spent time with the Alaska Natives and as I became acquainted with them, I learned about their dreams and their heartaches, their ambitions and their disappointments, and we became friends. I should like to dedicate this book to the Natives of Interior Alaska, the Inupiat Eskimos and the Athabascan Indians. I became acquainted with, worked among, and learned to love these people. It was a privilege to work and live with these earthy, loving and extraordinary Natives] They shared their joys and sorrows with me, and as we worked together, our lives became inextricably bound together as our goals became the same. The book is an attempt to portray the life I lived with these Natives, and we shared not only the health care provided but we learned about each other, and our friendship grew and broadened, and our understanding grew. So my book is dedicated to the Natives of Alaska, especially those of the Interior. I also am very grateful to Bob Callahan for his assistance in putting this book together. I would never have been able to finish it were it not for his help with format, and with the computer, and with every area in compiling the book. I appreciate his help more than I can ever say. He has been a wonderful teacher. I also want to thank my friend Charles Hugo, for help with the computer. Whenever I got stuck, and something would go wrong he was usually there to help me. So iv for those who made it possible to write my book I am grateful. Some of the names of people I have written about have been changed to protect the privacy of individuals.
