Bean's Day Out
This book is about Water Safety. Water Safety can involve various components, including life jackets, swim lessons, and even Water Rescue classes that start as early as 6 months old. Please don't wait to put your child in a class; water is everywhere, and it only takes 30 seconds to drown. Drowning is the leading cause of death in children ages 1-4. This is preventable by not only educating yourself about water safety, but also by enrolling your children in specialized Water Rescue classes that differ from traditional swim classes. Water Rescue classes teach your child, as young as 6 months old, to float on their back if they fall into any body of water. This could save their lives until you can save them.

The Fight of Our Lives: AIDS in America
A thoughtful, poignant look at the AIDS crisis in the United States that includes primary source interviews, history, medical research, and cultural touchpoints. The AIDS crisis in America is complex and composed of countless individual stories of grief, love, and advocacy. Its history shows the power of youth activism, how creativity and community can be vehicles for social change, and how bigotry and misinformation led to inequality in care. The early days of the AIDS crisis saw LGBTQ+ and other marginalized communities making strides in the fight for equality. As many people in positions of power were slow to act or actively didn't pay attention until their own communities were affected, the fight for equality turned into a fight for their lives. Grassroots efforts filled in gaps where mainstream medicine and politics failed, and over time, a cultural shift of awareness emerged, which led to more research and more treatments. And while the disease has transitioned from a death sentence to one that people can live full lives with, there are still people dying of HIV/AIDS today because they can't access the care they need. The fight may have begun decades ago, but is not yet over. Award-winning author David Levithan and University of Cambridge PhD Gabriel Duckels detail a brief history of the epidemic, touching on key moments and figures, such as Ryan White, ACT UP, Larry Kramer and Anthony Fauci, Pedro Zamora from MTV's The Real World, and the Names Quilt. Threaded throughout are poems, essays, and other creative works, in addition to first-person interviews and narratives. The most important takeaway is that we must remember. We need to know what happened and why. Our voices are powerful, and they can make a difference.
