Book Description
We Are Inspiring is a children's book anthology featuring the stories of 32 Asian American and Pacific Islander women. This work encompasses API femmes of various ethnicities, occupations, and body sizes, and is inclusive of LGBTQ folks, immigrants, and mixed-race women. How many Asian American women can you name? Designed for reading-with your child or for children ages 10+ to read independently, We Are Inspiring brings to life the inspiring stories of Asian American women from various backgrounds, ethnicities, and professions. Asian American history is an integral part of American history, yet it is often untold or oppressed. I hope that women (femme-identifying or non-binary folks) and our allies are inspired by the Americans whose stories I authored and illustrated. I especially hope that when Asian American women flip through the pages of my children's book, they can see themselves represented, acknowledged, validated, and inspired to chase their dreams by the women who inspired me to chase my own.I wondered why I couldn't find this kind of book anywhere... I realized it was because I hadn't made it yet. Dear reader, thank you for supporting me in my mission to create the book of American stories that I have wanted to hold since I was child.

TERRACOTTA SMOKE
Author: Toni Raben
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1456851543
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 135
Book Description
Ever since Toni Raben’s poetry debuted in the American Poetry Review, it was clear that a dramatic and original new voice had arrived. In Terracotta Smoke, an absorbing and powerful volume of her finest work to date, Ms. Raben puts forth relentlessly vivid and haunting poems, eschewing the familiar for more daringly coiled takes on the shrouded pangs and pleasures that pulse deep within the human psyche. Ms. Raben’s poetry will bring to mind the expressive musical journeys explored by many of the more adventurous jazz artists of decades past. They referred then to a place – more a state of mind – called The Big Room, wherein the music was stretched to the limits of melody, chord changes and rhythmic shifts that pressed the imagination to imagistic heights. Toni Raben brings to her poetic Big Room Terracotta Smoke, and those drawn in will be captivated. Cover Art by: Alan Dick
