Book Description
Open up a fresh and stylish story about growing up and keeping hold of your favorite memories. As the year passes, the narrator’s favorite dress goes through a series of creative changes, from dress to shirt to tank top to scarf and so on, until all that’s left of it is a good memory. Assisted by her patient and crafty mama, the narrator finds that when disaster strikes her favorite things, she doesn’t need to make mountains out of molehills—she “makes molehills out of mountains” instead! Structured around the days of the week, the story is also illustrated to show the passing of the seasons, a perfect complement to the themes of growing older and keeping hold (and letting go) of special mementos. Praise for I Had a Favorite Dress "A spunky story about adjusting to change with creativity and style. Tailor-made, so to speak, for the Etsy generation of DIY enthusiasts.” –Publishers Weekly “Everyone is smiling in the buoyant confections created by illustrator Julia Denos—including, it’s fair to say, young readers looking at them. Endearing picture book.” –Wall Street Journal “What could have been yet another example of kindergarten consumerism instead becomes one of resourcefulness and resilience.” –New York Times “Denos’s multimedia illustrations reinforce the narrator’s vibrant personality and the amazing transformations of the dress while capturing the action and emotion of the story. This book is sure to capture the imaginations of would-be seamstresses; children who can’t bear to part with a favorite item; and those who want to reduce, reuse, recycle.” –School Library Journal “Breezy in style, they smartly stitch each scene of alteration as the not-so-little girl sashays through the days of the week and the seasons. A charming interpretation of an old story that will speak to young fashionistas.” –Kirkus Reviews

Book Description
A stunning collection of stories from “one of the foremost chroniclers of the American South” (The Washington Post), including the novella “Light in the Piazza”—featuring an introduction by Afia Atakora, author of Conjure Women Over the course of a fifty-year career, Elizabeth Spencer wrote masterly, lyrical fiction about southerners. An outstanding storyteller who was unjustly denied a Pulitzer for her anti-racist novel The Voice at the Back Door despite being the unanimous choice of the judges, she is recognized as one of the most accomplished writers of short fiction, infusing her work with elegant precision and empathy. The Southern Woman collects the best of Spencer’s short stories, displaying her range of place—the agrarian South, Italy in the decade after World War II, the gray-sky North, and, finally, the contemporary Sun Belt. The Modern Library Torchbearers series features women who wrote on their own terms, with boldness, creativity, and a spirit of resistance

Book Description
Choices. In this age, we make hundreds if not thousands of choices every day. Do we eat healthy or grab something quick on the run? When you see a yellow traffic light, do you speed up and drive through it or do you prepare to stop? We make so many choices on a daily basis that we almost do it subconsciously. The most important choices that we make could have a significant impact on our lives for years to come, and yet, even these choices are often done subconsciously. Survival and time take precedence now, while our consequences are delayed. John St Cyr is just such a person. He is a sportswriter who lives just outside of Chicago with his wife, Sera, and his young daughter, Gabby. John and his wife are trying to stay afloat financially like so many of us. Outwardly, they are living the American dream, but on the inside, their life is a nightmare. There are stacks of bills and mortgage payments that can't be paid, and every day that goes by, they become deeper in debt. Addictions, infidelity, and bad habits get fed, as John tries to make sense of his life. On an unseasonably warm day in February, John takes a trip to Las Vegas to do an article on the Superbowl, and his life is changed forever. A domestic terrorist plot seems to be unfolding, and he may be in the middle of it. His strange dreams of angels and wraiths are haunting him and he knows he must do something. He must find a tall menacing dark man named Euroclydon. But is he too late? John has never been a spiritual man, nor has he been God fearing. That may or may not change. He has an important choice to make.
