  What happened to the American Dream? In A Love Letter to Suburbia, Diane Alisa takes readers on a compelling journey through the rise of suburbia and its consequences on American life. With heartfelt reflections and practical insights, Diane confronts the disillusionment many feel living in suburban sprawl. She explores how car dependency, corporate control, and disintegrating community values have eroded the sense of connection and purpose that once defined American neighborhoods. 
  But this is not a story of defeat. Diane offers a bold vision for restoring the “American Village”—a revitalized, walkable, community-focused way of living. Drawing on historical examples and modern urbanism, she presents actionable steps for turning car-centric infrastructure into vibrant, self-sustaining communities where families can thrive. A Love Letter to Suburbia is more than a critique; it is a hopeful roadmap for reclaiming the essence of the American Dream. 
  Will America restore its villages and rekindle a shared cultural identity—or will the suburbs continue to spread isolation?

  Jack Zipes has spent decades as a "scholarly scavenger," discovering forgotten fairy tales in libraries, flea markets, used bookstores, and internet searches, and he has introduced countless readers to these remarkable works and their authors. In Buried Treasures, Zipes describes his special passion for uncovering political fairy tales of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, offers fascinating profiles of more than a dozen of their writers and illustrators, and shows why they deserve greater attention and appreciation. 
   
   
   
  These writers and artists used their remarkable talents to confront political oppression and economic exploitation by creating alternative, imaginative worlds that test the ethics and morals of the real world and expose hidden truths. Among the figures we meet here are Édouard Laboulaye, a jurist who wrote acute fairy tales about justice; Charles Godfrey Leland, a folklorist who found other worlds in tales of Native Americans, witches, and Roma; Kurt Schwitters, an artist who wrote satirical, antiauthoritarian stories; Mariette Lydis, a painter who depicted lost-and-found souls; Lisa Tetzner, who dramatized exploitation by elites; Felix Salten, who unveiled the real meaning of Bambi's dangerous life in the forest; and Gianni Rodari, whose work showed just how political and insightful fantasy stories can be.
