Summary

In the tumultuous landscape of adolescence, a period marked by profound transformation and discovery, the interplay between hormones and brain development forms the cornerstone of human growth. "From Hormones to Neurons: Understanding Puberty's Role in Adolescent Brain Evolution And The Role of Technology" delves into the intricate biological processes that shape the adolescent mind and explores how modern technology influences this critical stage of life. This book aims to unravel the complexities of puberty, illustrating how hormonal changes trigger a cascade of neural developments that underpin emotional, cognitive, and social maturation.Physical changes and significant brain structure and function reconfigurations mark the journey from childhood to adulthood. Moreover, in an era where technology permeates every aspect of life, understanding its role in adolescent development is more critical than ever. This book addresses how digital engagement — from social media and video games to educational platforms — interacts with the brain's evolving landscape. The dual influence of biology and technology presents a unique framework for comprehending the contemporary adolescent experience.

    K-pop fandom and Freaky Friday collide in a hilarious body-swap story that celebrates the fans who drive one of the biggest musical sensations in the world. 
 
 
 
Skylar is convinced that life for her as an eleven-year-old is way harder than for any adult, including her cranky principal, Ms. Callus. The only good part about being eleven is being a massive K-pop fan, even if her parents do ban her from all things AZ8, the best K-pop boy band in the world. When a freak accident causes Skylar and Ms. Callus to switch bodies, Skylar finds herself trying to convince the world of AZ8's supremacy, going viral in a K-pop dance video, and somehow running her school, all while stuck in a seventy-one-year-old's body. And then she gets the chance to meet AZ8 in real life. With the help of her bestie, Dana, and her own wits and passion, Skylar must decide whether her K-pop dream come true is worth risking being stuck as an old lady forever. A feel-good tale singing with laugh-out-loud moments, Skylar and the K-Pop Principal is a joyful and uplifting story of friendship, fandom, and chasing your dreams.

Too bad she didn’t feel the same way. . . Growing up in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, was all fourteen-year-old Presley Walton knew. In fact, the teen had never ventured far beyond the city limits. Her world revolved around chilling in her bedroom, using her cell phone, and being on social media. Presley was getting ready to enjoy a typical summer, but her parents had other plans.  Before she knew it, Presley was on a smelly, old bus heading to the middle of nowhere. Nowhere, otherwise known as Camp Golden Arrow, would be her home sweet home for two weeks. It was the same camp her mom had attended when she was a teen. Her mom’s stories of camp friendships, cabin contests, and outdoor fun already made Presley dread this forced adventure.  Mia and Ann, identical twins, team up with Presley to make the fourteen days unforgettable. Epic prank wars, standing up to the camp bully, and fishing for Big Lou, a 100-pound blue catfish, make the camp experience one for the record books. Will the girls of D Cabin go down in the history books of Camp Golden Arrow. . . or will they become the next victims of the B Cabin boys?
