Figure Eight
Set in New Jersey, the novel Figure Eight centers on a group of middle school friends who meet to help each other solve their individual problems. Max has dyscalculia, a brain condition that makes solving math problems difficult. His friend Eric has dyslexia, so he mixes up his words. Dyslexia causes learning difficulties in reading or interpreting words or letters properly. Tori is a neighborhood girl who comes around to ask Max’s mom for help with her problems. And Pecos the Parrot has trouble expressing herself with words. She says, “oh boy” for just about everything. This realistic portrayal of family and friends depicts what caring people can do to help each other through their challenges. Says the author, “I was a middle grade teacher, and I knew a lot of kids like the ones in the book. And there were no books for kids struggling through dyscalculia. I decided that it was time to write one.”

Pluralistic Struggles in Gender, Sexuality and Coloniality
This open access book seeks to understand how politics is being made in a pluralistic sense, and explores how these political struggles are challenging and transforming gender, sexuality, and colonial norms. As researchers located in Sweden, a nation often cited as one of the most gender-equal and LGBTQ-tolerant nations, the contributions investigate political processes, decolonial struggles, and events beyond, nearby, and in between organizations, states, and national territories. The collection represents a variety of disciplines, and different theoretical conceptualizations of politics, feminist theory, and postcolonial and queer studies. Students and researchers with an interest of queer studies, gender studies, critical whiteness studies, and civil society studies will find this book an invaluable resource.
