Neighbors
Neighbors is a contemplative picture book about the lives of our neighbors—who are all around us and ever-present, yet somehow surprisingly elusive. They're everywhere: next door, above, and even below. More often than not, they are a mystery, a presence suggested by low hums, footfalls, or perhaps a slammed door. This book explores the ways that we think about those we exist among, but who remain strangers until we make the brave—and affirming—decision to connect. • From debut author-illustrator Kasya Denisevich • An exploration of neighbors coexisting together in one very special apartment building • Dynamic black-and-white illustrations blur the line between imagination, dream...
Managing Pandemic Isolation With Literature as Therapy
During the COVID-19 pandemic, many people had to cope with isolation due to lockdown policies that forced them to engage in fewer social activities. People were confined to the small space of their dwellings and felt constrained and socially isolated and deprived of meaningful social interaction and affection, which caused stress and anxiety. Several initiatives were put in place to help diminish the effects of isolation, such as those involving literature either through writing or reading. Managing Pandemic Isolation With Literature as Therapy explains the positive medical and psychological effects of literature and writing during a pandemic at a time when isolation prevented people from engaging with others socially. Covering topics such as clinical psychology, brain neurology, and stress, this reference work is ideal for psychologists, medical professionals, policymakers, government officials, researchers, scholars, academicians, practitioners, instructors, and students.

Trois pièces aux fenêtres étroites au cœur des bâtiments roses de la cité. Une dernière fois, Marie court dans les allées du quartier, elle a donné rendez-vous à ses amis au parc. Avec émotion, la fillette dit au revoir aux copines qui l’attendent au pied du grand toboggan..." Alors que sa maman attend un deuxième enfant, Marie déménage avec sa famille, quittant la banlieue parisienne pour s'installer en Bretagne. Face à tant de changements, la petite fille va devoir apprivoiser l'immensité de la mer, affronter et dompter ses peurs... Avec une intense poésie, un soupçon de fantastique, et une grande sensibilité, Isabelle Carré signe ici son premier texte jeunesse. À ses mots délicats s'allie le style unique de Kasya Denisevich, dont les illustrations jouent sur une arrivée progressive de la couleur.
