Book Description
This book chronicles the harrowing story of a young Mexican-American man's journey through 8- years of physical, mental and emotional bullying in elementary, middle and high school. He was not only bullied by white kids, but also Mexican students who taunted him for being born in the U. S. This young boy tells of having a gun put to his head by a bully who told him, "Today is your last day." He further reports having no one to help him deal with his pain, fear and desperation. He finally sought solace by joining a gang to protect him which led him to become a gang recruiter. He suffered from depression, cutting and frequent suicidal thoughts. He was saved by Hey U.G.L.Y. - Unique Gifted Lovable You, a nonprofit organization that empowers youth to be part of the solution of bullying and suicide. Content on the HeyUGLY.org website, and in their school assemblies, have been saving the lives of youth who are suicidal. His life was also saved by the love of beautiful white woman who stood by him and has, as of this writing, blessed him with three wonderful children. Today he is an involved husband and father. He sits on the board of directors of Hey U.G.L.Y. and is making music to inspire everyone to love and embrace each other. His rap name is Lil Sylnc, pronounced silence. He chose that name...first, because of his personal silence during all of his pain and bullying; second, because of his 'no fists up' motto in combating societal ills like bullying and racism through words and action instead of fists; and third, to silence ourselves when listening to others so we can deeply hear them in order to really be of help. He has started a movement called Color The World for people to embrace everyone's colors. He wrote this book to gives guidance to anyone who may be stuck in that bullying cycle to help them not only survive, but thrive.

Book Description
A funny, moving, and true story of an ordinary boy with an extraordinary face that's perfect for fans of Wonder—now available in the U.S. When Robert Hoge was born, he had a tumor the size of a tennis ball in the middle of his face and short, twisted legs. Surgeons removed the tumor and made him a new nose from one of his toes. Amazingly, he survived—with a face that would never be the same. Strangers stared at him. Kids called him names, and adults could be cruel, too. Everybody seemed to agree that he was “ugly.” But Robert refused to let his face define him. He played pranks, got into trouble, had adventures with his big family, and finally found a sport that was perfect for him to play. And Robert came face to face with the biggest decision of his life, he followed his heart. This poignant memoir about overcoming bullying and thriving with disabilities shows that what makes us “ugly” also makes us who we are. It features a reflective foil cover and black-and-white illustrations throughout.

Book Description
Catholic lore, American tales, and Sicilian superstition blend in this “clever, funny, heartbreaking, and heartwarming” novel (Publishers Weekly). Born with unruly red hair, a sharp tongue, and wine-colored marks all over her body—marks that oddly mimick a map of the world and make her subject to endless ridicule—Garnet Ferrari would hardly consider herself blessed. So when an emissary from the Vatican shows up at her door, convinced that her seeming ability to cure the skin ailments of others qualifies her for sainthood, she’s not quite convinced—or pleased. Garnet sets off on a quest to better understand who she is and where she and her unusual gifts came from. Tracing a twisted path that leads from Sicily to West Virginia, poverty to riches, romance to loss, reality to mythology, Garnet uncovers a truth far more powerful than any dermatological miracle: that the things of which we are most ashamed often become our greatest strengths. “A cleareyed, touching fable of a girl learning the hard truths about herself and others.” —Kirkus Reviews
