Wisdom in Communication
Communication is the lifeblood of human connection.It has the power to build bridges of love, foster understanding, and develop a world where unity thrives. But what happens when communication turns into a battlefield of misunderstandings, harsh words, and unresolved conflicts?We see it every day-families torn apart, friendships shattered, communities divided, brotherhood dissolved, and even nations at war.Today's world is suffering from the consequences of poor communication.Hatred spreads like wildfire, conflicts deepen, and peace feels like a distant dream. The root of this crisis is not merely political or economic-it lies in how we speak, how we listen, and how we respond to one another.Social media, personal interactions, and global conversations are often filled with anger, misinformation, and division-pushing humanity further apart.But imagine a different world-A world where we communicate with wisdom, where we listen with empathy, and where we value each other's perspectives.A world where, instead of fueling conflicts, we resolve them through mutual respect and understanding.This is not just a dream; it is a choice we can make.Youth-you are the architects of tomorrow.Your words, your interactions, and your ability to communicate with wisdom can change the course of history.When youth choose love over hatred, respect over insult, and!!unity over division, they become the voice of peace in a world that desperately needs it.This book is an invitation to reflect on the impact of communication on our relationships, communities, and the world.Is this really true?Yes-it is!Because each and every part of this book is connected with the Divine Book-the Holy Qur'an. It calls upon all, especially every young heart, to reject the toxic patterns of conflict and embrace the power of wise communication.Through understanding, patience, and kindness, you hold the key to resolving disputes, healing wounds, and uniting hearts.Why do I say this?Because the future depends on it.Let us not be the generation that deepens division-Let us be the generation that builds bridges.Speak with wisdom.Listen with compassion.And let your words be a force for love and peace.Together, we can heal.Together, we can unite.Together, we can develop a world where wise communication becomes the foundation of lasting peace.With hope and faith, - Zabed Mohammad, PhD

Marie's Magic Eggs
★ Publishers Weekly, starred review★ Kirkus Reviews, starred review★ Foreword Reviews, starred review★ Booklist, starred review★ The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, starred review Here is the inspiring story of the woman who kept alive the Ukrainian art of pysanky Easter eggs and brought it to America. Award-winning creators Sandra Neil Wallace and Evan Turk team up for a richly illustrated picture book biography for kids ages 7-10 who love arts and crafts. As a new immigrant to America living in Minneapolis, Marie Procai felt homesick and alone--she missed her homeland, Ukraine. She took comfort in the ancient Ukrainian art of making pysanky, intricately decorated eggs for Easter, an art she learned from her grandmother and brought with her to America. Cradling the pysanka in her hands felt like holding a piece of her homeland and giving her Baba a hug. Making pysanky made Marie feel a little more hopeful when the Russia's Red Army invaded Ukraine and forbade anyone from speaking Ukrainian or practicing their traditions, pysanky included. It sustained her spirit when her son was off fighting in World War II, and again when she welcomed Ukrainian refugees into her home after the war. A hardworking entrepreneur, Marie founded the Ukrainian Gift Shop in Minneapolis to keep Ukrainian culture alive in America and share it with everyone. The legend goes that as long as pysanky are decorated, there will be good in the world. Ukrainian-heritage author Sandra Neil Wallace and award-winning illustrator Evan Turk share this hopeful story of the woman who fought to preserve an essential part of Ukrainian culture.
Rebels, Robbers, and Radicals
"An excellent resource for teachers and librarians from middle school up, especially as we enter the semiquincentennial year of 2026." (New York Times Book Review) Meet the rebels, robbers, radicals, determined teenagers, and ordinary Americans who shaped our Constitutional rights. The first ten amendments of the U.S. Constitution--known as the Bill of Rights--include the guarantee that no person may be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law. Yet this soaring vision of human rights was written by enslavers who deprived others of these rights. The struggle to resolve this paradox continues to the present day. From Teri Kanefield comes the story of the Bill of Rights, from the founding of America to the first sedition laws, slavery, women's equality, the Civil War, Prohibition, the internment of Japanese Americans during WWII, the Civil Rights movement, gun control, and more. Using real court cases, Kanefield explains the meaning of each of the first ten amendments. The result is the story of Americans who have tested the limits of their rights or demanded that their rights be recognized. With full-color illustrations and thought-provoking text, Rebels, Robbers, and Radicals explores how our rights have evolved as the nation grew and changed.

Haiti's struggle for freedom and its profound impact on global history ignited a fire in the author.After graduating from Broward College, she pursued her academic journey at the Florida International University, where she earned a degree in International Relations. This degree opened her eyes to a broader view of global history, politics, and cultures, allowing her to connect the dots between Haiti's revolutionary struggle and the movements for freedom and equality around the world.Through her work, the author has realized that many children born in the Haitian diaspora are not fully aware of the profound history that shaped their identity. Often, they know little beyond the music, food, and cultural celebrations, missing out on the deeper, transformative story of Haiti's role in world history. With this book, the author aims to change that by sharing the powerful legacy of Haiti's fight for freedom and the lasting impact it had on the world.Her mission in writing this book is to show young readers that Haiti's story is about much more than the konpa music or delicious foods often associated with it.
