  It was a long, sometimes devastating, journey Maxine was forced to undertake through the depths of despair as a preschooler, and then on through a tumultuous adolescence during which she was ignored yet at the same time abused by a uncaring mother who daily left her with a malevolent grandmother who similarly mistreated her. 
  		Instructed by her divorced mother to no longer call her Mama, in an effort to enhance her own marketability as a perspective wife to some unsuspecting man. 
  		Fortunately, Maxine was endowed with the guiles and street smarts that allowed her to survive. The pain of her youth was converted, of necessity, into the toughness and unwillingness to accept what appeared to be inevitable. As the result of her own perseverance and courage she was accepted and graduated from Brooklyn College. 
  		Separating herself from her horrendous past, she resurrected her life by achieving success as a school teacher, a wife and, ultimately, a mother and grandmother. Along the way, she became proficient as a stock trader, thus providing herself and her family the additional financial and emotional security she was deprived of in her early years. 
  		Maxine reflects on her life as an independent success story.

  Street food markets have become wildly popular in Los Angeles—and behind the scenes, Latinx children have been instrumental in making these small informal businesses grow. In Kids at Work, Emir Estrada shines a light on the surprising labor of these young workers, providing the first ethnography on the participation of Latinx children in street vending.  
  Drawing on dozens of interviews with children and their undocumented parents, as well as three years spent on the streets shadowing families at work, Estrada brings attention to the unique set of hardships Latinx youth experience in this occupation. She also highlights how these hardships can serve to cement family bonds, develop empathy towards parents, encourage hard work, and support children—and their parents—in their efforts to make a living together in the United States. Kids at Work provides a compassionate, up-close portrait of Latinx children, detailing the complexities and nuances of family relations when children help generate income for the household as they peddle the streets of LA alongside their immigrant parents.

  Drew is down and out. Reduced to sleeping rough, he strikes gold when sheltering in a bush outside a house in a 'nice' street. Hearing music, he peeps through the window to see a beautiful woman dancing. The dance changes to something that is utterly erotic and the woman changes too… In fact, she isn't a woman at all - and Drew certainly isn't complaining.When the boy invites him inside the house, Drew has no illusions about what he's after. Except, he's wrong. He is after way more than sex. He's after Drew's heart. As the two unlikely bedfellows dance around each other, lines are drawn, blur and are re-drawn in patterns neither of them anticipate. Both boys are offering something the other is desperate for, but are they just too different, too broken to find the trust they need to make it work?This audiobook contains graphic scenes of a sexual nature in addition to extremely adult language and themes; it is therefore intended for a mature audience only.
