Описание: "A portrait of growing up in America, and a portrait of family, that pulls off the feat of being both intimately specific and deeply universal at the same time. I adored this book."--Jonny Sun

" A] high-spirited graphical memoir . . . Gharib's wisdom about the power and limits of racial identity is evident in the way she draws."--NPR

WINNER OF THE ARAB AMERICAN BOOK AWARD - NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY NPR - The New York Public Library - Kirkus Reviews

I Was Their American Dream is at once a coming-of-age story and a reminder of the thousands of immigrants who come to America in search for a better life for themselves and their children. The daughter of parents with unfulfilled dreams themselves, Malaka navigated her childhood chasing her parents' ideals, learning to code-switch between her family's Filipino and Egyptian customs, adapting to white culture to fit in, crushing on skater boys, and trying to understand the tension between holding onto cultural values and trying to be an all-American kid.

Malaka Gharib's triumphant graphic memoir brings to life her teenage antics and illuminates earnest questions about identity and culture, while providing thoughtful insight into the lives of modern immigrants and the generation of millennial children they raised. Malaka's story is a heartfelt tribute to the American immigrants who have invested their future in the promise of the American dream.

Praise for I Was Their American Dream

"In this time when immigration is such a hot topic, Malaka Gharib puts an engaging human face on the issue. . . . The push and pull first-generation kids feel is portrayed with humor and love, especially humor. . . . Gharib pokes fun at all of the cultures she lives in, able to see each of them with an outsider's wry eye, while appreciating them with an insider's close experience. . . . The question of 'What are you?' has never been answered with so much charm."--Marissa Moss, New York Journal of Books

"Forthright and funny, Gharib fiercely claims her own American dream."--Booklist

"Thoughtful and relatable, this touching account should be shared across generations."- Library Journal

"This charming graphic memoir riffs on the joys and challenges of developing a unique ethnic identity."- Publishers Weekly

Описание:

According to the annual UNICEF report «The State of the World’s Children», progress has been achieved in the fight against poverty, but the inequalities in children’s conditions still exist. With the data, those most at risk are identified, i.e. children who are least visible in the spotlight of public attention and suffer most from social isolation in the community. In order to develop every society should identify those who are most in need and should look for ways to support them. Both physical and emotional development of children living in socially disadvantaged areas should be supported and their access to basic needs should be facilitated.

This book presents the results of a project aiming at mapping child poverty in the Mamak district of Ankara. Taking the local conditions into consideration, an action plan has been developed to characterize the poverty experienced by the children living in the Mamak district and to generate solutions.

Описание: One of the most popular contestants ever to appear on American Idol gives his fans an all-access pass to the wildly popular television show--and opens up about how becoming an Idol star changed his life forever.

Sanjaya Malakar didn't need to win American Idol to take America by storm. He was just seventeen when his unique style, soft-spoken demeanor, and memorable song selections on the record-breaking show's sixth season captured hearts across the country.

In his candid book, Sanjaya opens up about what it feels like to go from obscurity as a high school student near Seattle to worldwide fame as a top ten finalist on one of the most popular television shows in American history. For the first time, the "People's Idol" talks about life before Randy, Simon, Paula, and "Sanjayamania," and offers his devoted "Fanjayas" an intimate behind-the-scenes look at the blockbuster show. From going to Hollywood with his beloved sister, Shyamali, to becoming the most highly anticipated performer of season six, to facing the unforgiving chopping block, Sanjaya tells his fans everything they want to know. Finally, he shares how his life has changed since he left Idol, and where his music--and unforgettable persona--will take him next.

Описание:

Kristy is your typical Los Angeles teenage girl. Shopping, cheerleading, boys, and popularity. So what happens when her parents (two of the best attorneys in the world) just pick up and move them to a small town called Whiteville in North Carolina? Kristy's entire world is turned upside down. From day one, Kristy suspects something isn't quite right about her new home, and the way her parents are acting is strange.

So how does Kristy deal with the knowledge that she has just inherited a legacy beyond human understanding? A legacy of power and Godhood.

Well, like any fierce teenage girl, she leashes the hottest guy in town and watches as any female who thinks to steal him while simultaneously fighting the forces of evil.

Описание: Multiple thousands of years ago planet Earth was devastated by catastrophic flood waters and darkness, and all life on earth perished. The earth remained in that morbid state until the Creator came down to the void planet with a six day plan of restoration and creation. The Holocene period of the history of planet Earth began on day one of God's creative acts. God created all new life-forms upon earth which exists to this day. New Creation answers the difficult questions of when Earth was restored, how we got here, and the more relevant question of when life begins. Is it possible to unlock the mysteries of time and space? Such hidden secrets that baffle the human mind for centuries are: When was the earth created? How we got here? When does life begin? Was earth ever visited by alien beings? The author investigates these controversial issues, and confidently reveals the shocking answers from the Scriptures in a challenging and thought-provoking manner. There are many interpretations to the Scriptures. Some are based on good Bible exegesis influenced by the Holy Spirit. Unfortunately many are based on personal opinions while others, to a good degree, on religious affiliation. There are indeed some erroneous interpretations resulting from human pride and misunderstanding of the Scriptures. Consequently false notions and misrepresentation of the Scriptures result. The ultimate outcome of poor Bible exegesis is that many denominations and their parishioners do what is pleasing to them. However their deeds are often in variance with the truth of the word of God. Today our modern society is faced with multiple social issues. These issues permeate though the society, and affect a large number of people. The majority grapples with problems and is desperately searching for answers. Unfortunately people refuse to look to the true source for answers. That source is the Bible. The Scriptures have the answer to every question facing mankind, and the solution to ever human problem and need. However, there is one problem that the Scriptures are unable to solve. That problem is unbelief. Unfortunately this is the major obstacle which prevents man from finding the correct answers to the social issues of today. Modern man rejects the idea of a universal Being who is the creator of the world. Man also rejects the word of God along with the divine answers that could solve human problem. Instead they rely on human knowledge and wisdom which is often futile, and leads to controversy and division among the people. "A New Creation" covers some mysteries of old, and addresses some of the divisive social issues of today. The author boldly declares the Scriptures as the foundation of truth. He further references the word of God regarding current controversial social issues. The author rightly divides the Word of Truth without fear or favor. Pointing to the uncompromising word of God he separates the truth from the myth, exposes the misconceptions, dispels false notions, and lays out the correct interpretation. A New Creation will set the burdened conscience of many women free. Conscience haunted by the stigma of abortion. The Biblical truth about abortion may bring closure, and a brighter outlook on life for many who are downcast by their past. The book is not intended to convince or convict, but only to inform. True believers will accept the truth but some will resist and waiver in unbelief. The author believes that every man should exercise his free will without coercion: because the saying is always true that "a man convinced against his will, will remain unconvinced still". However, the truth of the word of God will always prevail. "Let My People Know" Book 2, A New Creation is a must read for those who desire to enlighten their minds, and begin on a journey to unlock the mysteries of our time.
