Personal stories of surviving after the trauma of sexual assault.In the era of #MeToo, we’ve become better at talking about sexual assault. But sexual assault isn’t limited to a single, terrible moment of violence: it stays with survivors, following them wherever they go.Through the voices of twelve diverse writers, Whatever Gets You Through offers a powerful look at the narrative of sexual assault not covered by the headlines—the weeks, months, and years of survival and adaptation that people live through in its aftermath. With a foreword by Jessica Valenti, an extensive introduction by editors Stacey May Fowles and Jen Sookfong Lee, and contributions from acclaimed literary voices such as Alicia Elliott, Elisabeth de Mariaffi, Heather O’Neill, and Juliane Okot Bitek, the collection explores some of the many different forms that survival can take.From ice hockey to kink, boxing to tapestry-making, these striking personal essays address experiences as varied as the writers who have lived them. With candor and insight, each writer shares their own unique account of enduring: the everyday emotional pain and trauma, but also the incredible resilience and strength that can emerge in the aftermath of sexual assault.Contributors:Gwen BenawayJuliane Okot BitekElly DanicaAmber DawnAlicia ElliottKaryn FreedmanHeather O’NeillElisabeth de MariaffiLauren McKeonSoraya PalmerLeah Lakshmi Piepzna-SamarasinhaKai Cheng Thom - E-bokEngelska, 2019

Winners never quit. But quitting helps one little rabbit win big.When you step up to the plate, and all eyes are on you …When the crowd is cheering for you to hit one out of the park …Do you have to?Out of the Box is a groundbreaking picture book by award-winning author and baseball superfan Stacey May Fowles that encourages young readers to listen to their own instincts and give themselves a break — even as others may demand they push farther, jump higher, be stronger.In this story a young baseball player hears, just above the roar of the lions in the crowd, a small voice that tells them something doesn’t feel quite right. Stepping out of the batter’s box to follow this whisper, they walk away from the game to discover new places, meet new friends and dream new dreams.They may get back in the game — or they may not — but Out of the Box shows young readers of “the anxious generation” how leaving their bats behind is always an option. And that quitting, even if we’re at the top of our game, can sometimes give us the time, space and distance to figure out what it really looks like to win.Key Text Features illustrationsCorrelates to the Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts:CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.1.2Retell stories, including key details, and demonstrate understanding of their central message or lesson.CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.1.4Identify words and phrases in stories or poems that suggest feelings or appeal to the senses. - Inbunden, Engelska, 2023, 3-6 år

Stacey May Fowles’ debut picture book is a whimsical, warmhearted story of how a super-special surprise can lead to anxiety — or invite imagination.One beautiful fall day, Fern opens her mailbox and finds an envelope. After much worrying about what it could possibly contain, her friend Fawn encourages her to open it. Inside, she finds an invitation to a super-special surprise at the museum — but Fern doesn’t like surprises! Luckily, Fawn offers to come with her to the party. What could possibly happen, he asks. Along the way, Fern voices her worries: What if they can’t make it in time? What if they don’t know anyone there? Fawn playfully follows his friend's way of thinking, while gently suggesting twists to her story and a fun new cast of characters — the chipmunk who could show them a shortcut, the grumpy bear who could clear their path, the brave dentist who might treat the bear’s toothache — until at last they arrive, and Fern is able to enjoy the wonderful surprise happening around her. Marie Lafrance’s delightfully dreamy illustrations bring the imagined world of Fern and Fawn to life in this super-special story about catastrophic thinking.Key Text FeaturesillustrationsCorrelates to the Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts:CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.1.3Describe characters, settings, and major events in a story, using key details.CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.1.4Identify words and phrases in stories or poems that suggest feelings or appeal to the senses.CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.1.7Use illustrations and details in a story to describe its characters, setting, or events.
