  Growing Up! is a practical audiobook for neurodiverse young adults, older teens, and the parents and clinicians who support them. With warmth and clarity, it offers step-by-step ways to strengthen self-regulation, decision-making, and independence skills that last while building inner confidence. 
  Through relatable stories, simple neuroscience, and short journaling practices, listeners learn how to pause before reacting, recover more quickly from overwhelm, and build confidence in their own choices. The focus is on practical autonomy: skills that can be tested in real life and adapted for ADHD, autism, and other neurodiverse experiences. 
  Chapters explore systemic and neurological independence, the brain’s natural design for growth, and proven methods for rewiring habits. Each section includes mini-challenges that help listeners experience immediate results—less spiraling, more clarity, and greater ease with everyday tasks. 
  Whether you are a young adult navigating life on your own, a parent supporting your child’s growth, or a clinician looking for accessible resources, Growing Up! provides a clear, encouraging guide. It is both a self-help audiobook and a young adult guide to independence—showing that growing up is not about doing more, but about finding your true inner compass and trusting it.

  A Teenage Rhapsody 1966 to 1973

  "A Teenage Rhapsody 1966 to 1973" is autobiographical and describes my transition from adolescence to manhood at a time when the shackles of certain traditional social oppressions were been swept aside by optimism for a better future that previous generations were denied. 
  That better future started with the phenomenon called 'the teenager' who suddenly had a voice, a voice of freedoms, expression and of influence that helped create the Swinging Sixties. 
  I was there, yes I was there. What I was to experience growing up in the suburbs of Leeds at the time the book suggests, was that of hardship, laughter, fun, love and betrayal, juvenile violence and the explosion of alternatives that were now becoming accepted, as inevitable. 
  But also what I was experiencing, with the doctrine of Victorian values to keep me out of harm's way, was the freedom, without concern, to wander and explore for endless hours, the labyrinth of streets of back to back terrace houses that offered adventure around every corner. 
  The simplicity of life during the time of my teenage years, alongside a commonality of certain basic traditions passed down from generation to generation, that still apply and work regardless of generation. This was liberating, allowing me to develop my mind and character through trial and error at a pace of life that was less demanding and frenzied to what is to arrive in the next century, when all this description will be viewed in the format akin to a Sepia painting hanging with obscurity in a corner of a gallery. 
  This story had a need to be told.

  A bold examination of how Paleolithic wisdom could solve our 21st century problems 
   
  Jessica Carew Kraft, an urban wife and mom of two, was firmly rooted in the modern world, complete with a high-powered career in tech and the sneaking suspicion that her lifestyle was preventing her and her family from truly thriving.  
   
  Determined to find a better way, Jessica quit her job and set out to learn about “rewilding” from people who reject the comforts and convenience of civilization by using ancient tools and skills to survive. Along the way, she learned how to turn sticks into fire, stones into axes, and  
  bones into tools for harvesting wild food—and found an entire community walking the path back from our technologyfocused, anxiety-ridden way of life to a simpler, more human experience. 
   
  Weaving deep research and reportage with her own personal journey, Jessica tells the remarkable story of the potential benefits rewilding has for us and our planet and questions what it truly means to be a human in today’s world. Why We Need to Be Wild is a thought-provoking,  
  unforgettable narrative that illuminates how we survived in the past, how we live now, and how each of us can choose to thrive in the years ahead.

  Latinx Literature: A Very Short Introduction invites listeners into the richly textured, ever-evolving world of Latinx literary expression. Far from a fixed tradition, Latinx literature arises from a kaleidoscope of voices rooted in transhemispheric exchange—from pre-conquest Indigenous storytelling to Spanish colonial chronicles, to the contemporary works shaped by migration, memory, and resistance.Aldama offers an illuminating overview of the major figures, movements, and themes that have defined Latinx literature across time and place. Rather than attempting a single, all-encompassing narrative, this Very Short Introduction weaves together a layered account that reflects the lived experiences and diverse cultural heritages of authors of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Dominican, Central American, and South American descent. Listeners encounter a dynamic cast of storytellers—poets, novelists, playwrights, comic creators, and more—each responding to the political and cultural conditions of their moment while shaping new literary terrains. The result is a nuanced understanding of Latinx literature as a dynamic continuum shaped by centuries of cultural exchange, resilience, and transformation.

  NPR Great Read of 2016 
  Author and Guardian US columnist Jessica Valenti has been leading the national conversation on gender and politics for over a decade. Now, in a darkly funny and bracing memoir, Valenti explores the toll that sexism takes from the every day to the existential.  
  Sex Object explores the painful, funny, embarrassing, and sometimes illegal moments that shaped Valenti’s adolescence and young adulthood in New York City, revealing a much shakier inner life than the confident persona she has cultivated as one of the most recognizable feminists of her generation.  
  In the tradition of writers like Joan Didion and Mary Karr, this literary memoir is sure to shock those already familiar with Valenti’s work and enthrall those who are just finding it. 
  “Jessica Valenti is a breath of fresh air. She offers the kind of raw honesty that can feel like a punch in the gut, but leaves you with the warmth of a deep embrace.” — Ms. Magazine 
  “One of the most visible and successful feminists of her generation.”  — Washington Post 
  “A gutsy young third wave feminist.” — The New York Times
