Stephanie Klein was an eighth grader with a weight problem. It was a problem at school, where the boys called her "Moose," and it was a problem at home, where her father reminded her, "No one likes fat girls." After many frustrating sessions with a nutritionist known as the fat doctor of Roslyn Heights, Long Island, Klein's parents enrolled her for a summer at fat camp. Determined to return to school thin and popular, without her "lard arms" and "puckered ham," Stephanie embarked on a memorable journey that would shape more than just her body. It would shape her life.Show book

I was going to say that it all started with a toothache, but that’s not quite right. It really started the day before, with a decision. A stupid decision made with the sort of offhand nonchalance with which people like me make decisions about places like theirs. It was a bad decision, one that I regret to this day and one that I probably always will. On the other hand, the decision to go to Greece in the first place had been a good one. Though of course that decision wasn’t really mine. It had been the run up to exam season and as the teacher with the highest number of exam classes in the school (and as a consequence the teacher with the highest number of mock examination papers to mark) by the time the half term break came around I was absolutely exhausted. For what seemed like months I was either in the classroom teaching, planning the lessons I would be teaching the following day, or marking examination papers from one of the four exam classes, all of which had multiple papers for me to plough through.Show book
A sharp-witted, wide-ranging collection from Walt Handelsman, two-time Pulitzer Prize winner for Editorial Cartooning. Walt Handelsman’s nationally syndicated editorial cartoons have touched on international issues, nationwide events, and a few points of local interest to Louisiana, and this gallery of his work is both pointed and poignant. He has covered world dramas from Somalia to the Gulf War to Bosnia to Tiananmen Square with incredible depth in a single frame, and his humor shines through his commentary on presidential administrations and a seemingly unending supply of topics, like health care, race relations, tax reform, term limits, and, of course, campaigns. And his caricatures of Louisiana notables like Governor Edwin Edwards and the ever-controversial David Duke have made it to op-ed pages far beyond the state. This collection showcases the insightful comic sensibility and style that have earned him, in addition to his Pulitzers, two Headliner’s Club Awards, a Society of Professional Journalist’s Award, and a Scripps Howard National Journalism Award.Show book
