  It is an explosive true story of survival, betrayal, and the moment America lost its grip on the Middle East. 
  On November 4, 1979, 52 Americans were taken hostage inside the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, an act that stunned the world and sparked a 444-day standoff that shattered U.S. diplomacy and changed global politics forever. 
  In this pulse-pounding narrative, acclaimed historian Davis Truman pulls back the curtain on the backroom deals, psychological torment, and international missteps that defined one of the longest hostage crises in modern history. Drawing from declassified documents, secret cables, and firsthand interviews, 444 Days brings to life the human drama at the heart of a geopolitical disaster. 
  When diplomacy fails, what remains: bluster, betrayal, or a better way forward?

  Writing and sharing fiction allows adolescents to glimpse other lives 
   
   
   
  The current curricular emphasis on analytical writing can make it feel risky to teach creative writing in ELA classrooms. But the opportunity to write fiction in school opens many doors for young people: doors the author argues are critical to the development of our students, our education system, and even our democracy. 
   
   
   
  This book will delight English teachers weary of focusing relentlessly on argument and information writing. Veteran teacher Ariel Sacks vividly describes the many academic, social–emotional, and community-building advantages of teaching imaginative writing in the classroom, not least of which is the impact it has on equity for marginalized students. Her book is a teacher-to-teacher text that folds in detailed, practical guidance about how to design lessons and meet standards, while presenting a powerful central argument: that the writing of fiction should be treated not as a luxury for some, but as a center of the English curriculum for all students.

  The Invisible Manual: How It Feels to Grow Up Autistic and Undiagnosed 
  A raw, deeply personal memoir about the journey of discovering autism in adulthood. Anonymous Author takes listeners through the confusion of growing up different without understanding why - the failed social interactions, the exhausting masking, the misdiagnoses, and the profound moment of recognition that changes everything. 
  This isn't a clinical guide or self-help book. It's an honest exploration of what it means to live for decades without the "instruction manual" everyone else seemed to have, and the life-changing relief of finally understanding yourself. 
  For anyone who has ever felt like they were pretending to be normal, this audiobook offers validation, understanding, and hope. Sometimes the most important discovery is learning that you were never broken - just unrecognized. 
  A story of late diagnosis, self-acceptance, and finding your authentic self.

  COPOUT - How governments have...

  ‘Wry and passionate first-hand observations from the global climate negotiations – essential for capturing the spirit of this endlessly frustrating struggle’ – Bill McKibben 
  Most people tend to turn away, perhaps understandably, from the key existential issue of the day: climate change or, some would say more accurately, climate collapse. Nick Breeze tells the engaging, very human story of successive COP conferences over the past decade: it is a tale of imperfection, failure even, but not yet defeat. 
  So far, the UN process has achieved almost the exact opposite of what it first set out to achieve at the Rio Earth Summit in 1992. Nick shows clearly that it is not Extinction Rebellion, Just Stop Oil nor any other climate protesters who are the extremists; the true extremists are the policymakers who consistently undermine faltering efforts to reduce emissions. Repeatedly claiming to be saving us whilst allowing carbon emissions to continue rising, governments have failed their people on climate. Nick shows us how, why and what we can do about it. 
  The public remains largely uninformed about climate change and, for the most part, those who seek to draw attention to the issue are seen as ‘crazy’. There remains a terrifying gap between scientific reality and political action. 
  Packed with his own experiences and insights from expert interviewees, Nick’s page-turning account is less about the intricacies of the science and more about the mainstream perception of how we are understanding and responding to the problem.
