Black excellence is achieved when we first remedy black shortcomings. Oftentimes, black people do not have the space for transparent conversation about community development without the conversation being used to discredit them later. But while the culture is not monolithic, and everyone's experience is unique, unhealthy trends need to be discussed--to clear the way for meaningful action and change that matters. In this groundbreaking, straight-talking book, Maliek Blade addresses absent fathers, the plight of the single mother, baby-mama drama, toxic masculinity, and why romance seems to be an emotional rollercoaster. With every finger pointed at a problem comes an open hand with a solution. Maliek challenges men to unlearn and rethink what it means to be a man and father. Brothers and sisters, be prepared to look back and unpack how your views on the following topics were shaped: A father's responsibilities Sex and self-control Emotional maturity Friends vs. yes men Your parents' influence on your personality Mental health

The action of WWII comes alive in this chapter book through American soldier Joe's letters home to his younger brother, Charlie! When Charlie's brother, Joe, is called up to fight in World War II, he promises to write letters to ten-year-old Charlie as often as he can. It won't make up for not being there to help Charlie out with the neighborhood bullies, but it's all Joe can do. Life is tough for a soldier, and Joe tells Charlie all about it, from long hikes in endless rain and mud to the stray dog his company adopts. But when Joe is sent on a secret mission with the one soldier he can't stand, he will have to face risks that place their mission -- and their lives -- in grave danger. Charlie knew his brother was strong, but he will discover that Joe is more of a hero than he lets on. Will Joe's letters give Charlie the strength to stand up for himself and be brave, too?

From the bestselling horror author of Within These Walls and The Bird Eater comes a terrifying novel that follows a teenager determined to break from his family’s unconventional—and deeply disturbing—traditions. Deep in the heart of Appalachia stands a crooked farmhouse miles from any road. The Morrows keep to themselves, and it’s served them well so far. When girls go missing off the side of the highway, the cops don’t knock on their door. Which is a good thing, seeing as to what’s buried in the Morrows’ backyard. But nineteen-year-old Michael Morrow isn’t like the rest of his family. He doesn’t take pleasure in the screams that echo through the trees. Michael pines for normalcy, and he’s sure that someday he’ll see the world beyond West Virginia. When he meets Alice, a pretty girl working at a record shop in the small nearby town of Dahlia, he’s immediately smitten. For a moment, he nearly forgets about the monster he’s become. But his brother, Rebel, is all too eager to remind Michael of his place…
