Описание: This book examines how citizens judge whether government is abusing its power when making use of eminent domain. Debbie Becher argues that neither a belief in property rights nor a desire for growth guide popular evaluations of government legitimacy. Instead, community residents, businesses, government bureaucrats, and politicians all appeal to a shared notion of investment to justify policy.

Описание: Walter Dean Myers—“Why Ali Is My Hero”: “When Cassius Clay emerged in the early Sixties he touched two vital areas of black life; he was the absolute personification of ‘Black is beautiful!’ and he brought a new meaning to the idea of Black power, not only in his ring victories but in his amazing personal courage. More than that, however, was that he was beautiful and powerful without making that beauty and power anti-white. Clay, and later Ali, was not only a Black hero but, with his humor and anti-war stance, a hero for young White Americans as well.” In this Amistad co-publication, acclaimed author Walter Dean Myers and bold, vibrant debut picture book artist Alix Delinois make the depth and complexity of larger-than-life legend Muhammad Ali accessible to young readers in this biography that reflects the beauty and power of the man who could “float like a butterfly, sting like a bee.”

Описание:
Lockdown is the powerful tale of fourteen-year-old Reese Anderson, who has spent 22 months in a tiny cell at a "progress center." Living in fear and isolation, Reese begins looking within himself to find a way out of the prison system.
Acclaimed author Walter Dean Myers offers an honest story about finding a way to make it without getting lost in the shuffle. Told with compassion and truth, Lockdown is also a compelling first-person read that could resonate with teens on a dangerous path.*
When I first got to Progress, it freaked me out to be locked in a room and unable to get out. But after a while, when you got to thinking about it, you knew nobody could get in, either.
It seems as if the only progress that's going on at Progress juvenile facility is moving from juvy jail to real jail. Reese wants out early, but is he supposed to just sit back and let his friend Toon get jumped? Then Reese gets a second chance when he's picked for the work program at a senior citizens' home. He doesn't mean to keep messing up, but it's not so easy, at Progress or in life. One of the residents, Mr. Hooft, gives him a particularly hard time. If he can convince Mr. Hooft that he's a decent person, not a criminal, maybe he'll be able to convince himself.
Walter Dean Myers was a New York Times bestselling author, Printz Award winner, five-time winner of the Coretta Scott King Award, two-time Newbery Honor recipient, and the National Ambassador for Young People's Literature. Maria Russo, writing in the New York Times, called Myers one of the greats and a champion of diversity in children's books well before the cause got mainstream attention.
