Lucy's Amazing Friend
Lucy doesn't understand why the new boy in Miss Reed's class doesn't like her. "I said hi and he ignored me," she said. "Lucy, that's Daniel. He has autism," Miss Miller responded. "What's autism?" asked Lucy. From that moment on Lucy works to make friends with Daniel in this bright, upbeat book about autism. Once she succeeds, Lucy becomes determined that the other kids in the class learn to accept Daniel as well. With an estimated 1 in 68 children now falling somewhere on the autism spectrum, "Lucy's Amazing Friend" is just the right book to help children understand that we are all different, and while those differences can be challenging, they also make us each special.
Diamond White
From Amateur Criminal to Amateur Vigilante, Kay Riley sets her sights on a dangerous arms dealer. A cop blamed for a terrible crime, Riley went on the run and was thought to be dead. Not quite. Now Riley is determined to learn the skills she will need to fight injustice on her own terms, from the shadows. Meanwhile, she agrees to help take down a dangerous arms dealer. Ruby, Marty, and the Shelbys are back to help, along with a new young woman who might, despite Riley's attempts to warn her away, be the perfect sidekick. And speaking of kicks, Selena Salerno is back as well, and not at all happy with what Riley has been up to since her apparent death. Full of lighthearted action, Diamond White chronicles Riley's attempts to become a master thief and crusader for justice. No capes, no invisible jets, just an old Subaru wagon, a zippy little motorcycle, and some true friends. And yes, there are some diamonds involved.
New Wilderness Voices
Guy and Laura Waterman spent a lifetime reflecting on and writing about the mountains of the Northeast. The Waterman Fund seeks to further their legacy of stewardship through an annual essay contest that celebrates and explores issues of wilderness, wildness, and humanity. Since 2008, the Waterman Fund has partnered with the journal Appalachia in seeking out new and emerging voices on these subjects, and in publishing the winning essay in the journal. Part of the contest's mission is to find and support such emerging writers, and a number of them have gone on to publish other work in Appalachia or their own books. The contest has succeeded admirably in fulfilling its mission: new writers have brought fresh perspectives to these timeless issues of wilderness and wildness. In New Wilderness Voices these winning essays are collected for the first time, along with the best runners-up. Together, they make up an important and celebratory addition to the growing body of environmental literature, and shed new light on our wild spaces.

Nuclear Cultures
Nuclear Cultures: Irradiated Subjects, Aesthetics and Planetary Precarity aims to develop the field of nuclear humanities and the powerful ability of literary and cultural representations of science and catastrophe to shape the meaning of historic events.

Furthermore, this text explores themes such as the cultures of atomic scientists, the making of the bomb, nuclear bombings and disasters, nuclear aesthetics and art, and the global mobilization against nuclearization. Nuclear Cultures breaks new ground in the debates on "the nuclear" to foster the development of nuclear humanities, its vocabulary and methodology.
