Summary of Megan Stephens's Bought and Sold (Part 1 of 3)
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I had a tightly coiled ball of anger inside me that sometimes erupted into bad behavior. I was not ever violent, but I was argumentative and determined to do whatever ill-advised thing I had set my mind on. I began wagging school and running away from home at age 12. #2 I missed my dad, but I was happy to be away from him. I felt like it was my responsibility to look after my sister and the two other kids who stayed with us at the weekends, so I told them stories and pretended I wasn’t afraid. #3 I had a difficult time moving out of my mother’s house. I was upset when I found out that our new house was on a rough housing estate, and that kids like me were picked on and sometimes physically assaulted. #4 I had always done well in school, so I was looking forward to moving on to secondary school. But when I started to get bullied, I began to change myself in order to fit in. I eventually became friends with one of the bullies, and together we would prank call people.
Summary of Megan Stephens's Bought and Sold (Part 2 of 3)
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I began working as an escort, and every day I had sex with between six and eight men. Jak always went with me in a taxi to drop me off at their homes or hotel rooms. Then he would wait for me in a café to take me to the next job. I hated it. #2 I was 14 when I got pregnant. I was ecstatic, but Jak seemed pleased about it. I had two regular clients who didn’t use condoms, but Jak came inside me every time. So there was no question about whether the baby was his. #3 I was pregnant, and I was scared. I didn’t understand that I was having a miscarriage. It seemed like a tragedy, when in reality it was a blessing for the child. Jak knew what he was doing when he kicked me. #4 I was becoming more and more afraid of Jak as he took control of every aspect of my life. I would fly into rages, which seemed to be triggered by jealousy that even as I became more and more confused, I seemed to enjoy. I was a willing prostitute, working for myself, but I loved Jak.

Reading Picture Books with Children
A new, interactive approach to storytime, The Whole Book Approach was developed in conjunction with the Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art and expert author Megan Dowd Lambert's graduate work in children's literature at Simmons College, offering a practical guide for reshaping storytime and getting kids to think with their eyes. Traditional storytime often offers a passive experience for kids, but the Whole Book approach asks the youngest of readers to ponder all aspects of a picture book and to use their critical thinking skills. Using classic examples, Megan asks kids to think about why the trim size of Ludwig Bemelman's Madeline is so generous, or why the typeset in David Wiesner's Caldecott winner,The Three Pigs, appears to twist around the page, or why books like Chris Van Allsburg's The Polar Express and Eric Carle's The Very Hungry Caterpillar are printed landscape instead of portrait. The dynamic discussions that result from this shared reading style range from the profound to the hilarious and will inspire adults to make children's responses to text, art, and design an essential part of storytime.
