  New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today Bestseller! 
  Girls can rule the world—all they need is confidence. This empowering, entertaining guide from the bestselling authors of The Confidence Code gives girls the essential yet elusive code to becoming bold, brave, and fearless.  
  It’s a paradox familiar to parents everywhere: girls are achieving like never before, yet they’re consumed with doubt on the inside. Girls worry constantly about how they look, what people think, whether to try out for a sports team or school play, why they aren’t getting “perfect” grades, and how many likes and followers they have online.  
  Katty Kay and Claire Shipman use cutting-edge science and research, as well as proven methods of behavioral change, to reach girls just when they need it the most—the tween and teen years. 
  Packed with true stories from tons of real girls, The Confidence Code for Girls teaches girls to embrace risk, deal with failure, and be their most authentic selves.  
  If you or the girl in your life loved The Gutsy Girl or Rad American Women A-Z, you'll love this.

  Japanese Fairy Tales

  Many of the stories in this book seem at the same time both familiar and strange. 
  Their authors valued family, duty, patience and heroism. They longed for children in their old age, and rejoiced when they saw cruelty and envy punished, wrongs righted, and kindness and bravery rewarded. 
  These ideas are recognized the world over. 
  What makes the stories different is partly the characters: the brave samurai, the evil wizards; the fantastical creatures – goblins, dragons, demons, fairies; the cunning talking animals – not only sparrows, badgers and rabbits, but crocodiles and jellyfish too. 
  You may feel you know what is coming when the hero is told not, under any circumstance, to open the box – or when the doting father takes a second wife, a wicked stepmother. There is even one tale where the new wife sends a servant to take the daughter into the woods and dispose of her (sound familiar?). 
  Though the ideas are tried and trusted, the journey is fresh and new. 
  Not only because the heroes ride on paper cranes or tortoises that swim under the sea – but because the destination may not be what you expect. 
  There is even more than one story where the wicked woman repents her evil ways and goes on to live a good and kind life.

  In this spooky and atmospheric debut contemporary fantasy, Snow White and Rose Red meets the modern world after sisters Neve and Rose’s lives are upended when a swamp witch kidnaps Rose. Perfect for fans of Jodi Lynn Anderson and Katherine Arden. 
  For twelve-year-old Neve, it’s always been she and her older sister against the world, their lives entwined just like sisters in a fairy tale. So, if Rose loves tennis, Neve will play it too—even if secretly she’d rather be home turning cardboard boxes into offbeat art projects. Not even being moved to the piney woods outside Etters, South Carolina, can change what they are to each other—until a mysterious fog seems to swallow up Rose before Neve’s eyes. 
  Naturally, the adults don’t believe that something supernatural is at play. So, with the help of Piper, a classmate with a tomato fixation; Sammy, a boy with memories of an otherworldly stranger; and a stray dog that seems to belong to the woods, Neve discovers that her sister has been taken by a swamp-dwelling witch with a terribly wicked plan. It will be up to Neve to save her sister. Otherwise, she’ll be separated from Rose . . . forever 
  A gorgeous, haunting debut about sisterhood and finding your voice.Perfect for Halloween readingA charming cozy seasonal pick

  I Can't Seem To Find Molly:...

  As a personal trainer, I have researched MDMA, commonly known as "Molly," to help clients make informed choices when celebrating. Reintroduced through hip-hop culture, Molly is an illegal white powder taken orally to achieve a euphoric high. I do not condone the use of any illegal substance due to the significant dangers involved. Fitness provides a much safer and healthier alternative. This concise book examines Molly and aims to discourage its use through informative analysis. I am a certified personal trainer with the National Federation of Professional Trainers (certificate number 45582).
