Women and the Right to Vote (A True Book)

By: Cynthia Chin-Lee

The year 2020 brings the centennial celebration of the Nineteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which granted women the right to vote. That victory was the hard-won result of a difficult fight waged over many decades by women from all walks of life. Some of those women gave their lives to the cause, while others, including women of color, were sidelined from this most basic right. This book tells all their stories.Women are sometimes called the silent protagonists of history. But since before the founding of our nation until now, women have organized, marched, and inspired. They forced change and created opportunity.With engaging text, fun facts, photography, infographics, and art, this new set of books examines how individual women of differing races and socioeconomic status took a stand, and how groups of women lived and fought throughout the history of this country. It looks at how they celebrated victories that included the right to vote, the right to serve their country, and the right to equal employment. The aim of this much-needed set of five books is to bring herstory to young readers!

Operation Marriage

By: Cynthia Chin-Lee

Eight-year-old Alex has a fight with her best friend, Zach, who says he can no longer be her friend. Why? Because “her parents aren’t married.” Set in the San Francisco Bay Area months before the passage of Proposition 8 banning gay marriage in California, this picture book looks at the heartwarming and humorous actions of Alex and her younger brother, Nicky, to convince their parents to get married. Though content with a commitment ceremony years earlier, the children’s stubbornness prevails and the moms get legally married before Prop. 8 takes effect. Their love as a family is contagious as their neighbors begin to accept them for what they are: a normal, affectionate family. Based on a true story, Cynthia Chin-Lee (author of Amelia to Zora) has written a splendid and touching story about a real family, and the real implications of the struggle for equality, with beautiful and captivating illustrations by Lea Lyon (Say Something).

Death and the Maven

By: Cynthia Polansky

“If the spirit of a loving wife can’t nudge her husband in the right direction, who can?” So thinks thirty-something Judith McBride, a Jewish control freak with an unlikely last name. When Judith dies in a medical mishap, she calls on her supernatural status to “rescue” her widowed husband from the sexy clutches of their gold-digging, thrill-seeking blonde accountant. But interfering with earthly events is strictly verboten and the repercussions ripple outward, deeply affecting not only Judith but the lives of her husband and best friend. Judith’s journey from the physical to the spiritual world is peppered with adjustments, choices, and self-discovery ultimately leading her to the realization that loving sometimes means learning how to let go.
