Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cammy Chameleon has been blending in all her life to help her catch bugs, but lately it seems like no one is paying attention to her. One day, Cammy has an idea. She carefully concentrates and then, suddenly, she turns bright red! Everyone is impressed with her new colors, and Cammy can’t stop showing them off. She has never felt so beautiful . . . or hungry, because the bugs notice her bright colors, too. Soon Cammy realizes that showing off isn’t always worth it and that she can be happy being a regular chameleon again—at least most of the time! Rose Williamson’s Look at Me! Look at Me! teaches kids to be thankful for what they’re given in a silly and colorful way. Doreen Marts’s friendly and expressive illustrations are fun to look at, and Cammy’s vibrant and telling journey will resonate with those who aim to stand out while also fitting in.

Until the night before the first day of school, when Therese sends Cece a message, three words that change everything: We are moving. Therese’s new home in the USA is 7,000 miles away from Lagos, where the two best friends grew up. Not only is Cece facing secondary school without her best friend, but she’s losing the world she built with Therese. But Cece still has hope. Maybe she can’t cross the world to get to her friend, but in Minecraft she won’t need to. Therese has invited her to a new server—with new friends from her new home—a place called Haven. All Cece has to do is join and they’ll be reunited. It’s that easy, right? When she follows the invite, she realizes just how wrong she was. Lost in a chaotic world named Anarchia, Cece learns that the server’s owner, a shadowy figure called the Ocury, has sealed off the peaceful land of Haven behind a twisted initiation ceremony called the Haven Trials. Three titanic tasks. Five lives to complete them. A host of dangerous mobs and griefing players. If Cece fails, she’ll be banned from the server forever. There’s no way she can do this alone. If she wants to play with Therese again, she’s going to have to find new people she can rely on—both in-game and IRL. No time to lose. . . . The trials await!

As the son of a former gang legend, Mav does that the only way he knows how: dealing for the King Lords. With this money he can help his mom, who works two jobs while his dad’s in prison. Life’s not perfect, but with a fly girlfriend and a cousin who always has his back, Mav’s got everything under control. Until, that is, Maverick finds out he’s a father.

In a world where he’s expected to amount to nothing, maybe Mav can prove he’s different. When King Lord blood runs through your veins, though, you can't just walk away. Loyalty, revenge, and responsibility threaten to tear Mav apart, especially after the brutal murder of a loved one. He’ll have to figure out for himself what it really means to be a man.

Download or read book EachOneTeachTen written by Namya Joshi and published by Blue Rose Publishers. This book was released on 2022-09-30 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no girl or boy gamer. A gamer is a gamer. I am Namya Joshi and have spent the last four years designing and delivering free of cost coding workshops for more than 10,000 teachers, young people, especially girls, in India and all over the world, as well as empowering other young people to run their own coding clubs. I have raised awareness about the social issues using game based learning with STEM. My parents are from the field of IT. And if I go by people’s perception it’s quite obvious I will pursue the same field as it is genetic. But my purpose has always been very clear that why do we see very less girls in this field? You will see boys dominating the field of computer sciences and field of IT. Dreams come true only when you believe in them, and meeting Satya Nadella, the CEO of Microsoft, a man with exceptional leadership and delivery skills, was one such dream. This lockdown gave me strength, and the skills I learned paved the way for me to start the #GirlsInStem club. This was a perfect example of my credo, #EachOneTeachTen. For my ongoing efforts of creating and empowering others, I was honoured with the Pradhan Mantri Rastriya Bal Puraskar, India's highest civilian award for an individual under the age of 18 years old. When we inspire girls to pursue careers in STEM, a glass ceiling will vanish. I was inspired by an incident. Who knows the next person out of you reading might be here ....have faith and belief and see magic happening in your life.
