The Thing About Falling - Tarriona Ball
From Grammy award-winning spoken word artist and poet Tarriona ‘Tank’ Ball, comes a powerful second collection of poetry about falling out of love and into a renewed sense of self. After getting “vulnerable AF” on her 2021 book tour, Tank realized she was truly ready to move on from her first love. In The Thing About Falling, she writes about that experience as well as what followed—a period of shallow comfort, followed by a much deeper transformation. Organized in sections that follow the author from heartbreak to rebound to new love, the poetry that flows is an honest, witty, and effortlessly charming account of one woman’s journey back to herself. For the teenage reader facing their first heartbreak or the thirty-something looking for the strength to risk love again, The Thing About Falling is a heartfelt reminder that, love is always worth the fall.

This is a must-read for parents and coaches and anyone else looking to prepare for life''s biggest challenges."—Malcolm Gladwell, author of Outliers and Talking to Strangers and host of the Revisionist History podcastFrom beloved performance expert, executive coach, and coauthor of Peak Performance Steve Magness comes a radical rethinking of how we perceive toughness and what it means to achieve our high ambitions in the face of hard things.Toughness has long been held as the key to overcoming a challenge and achieving greatness, whether it is on the sports field, at a boardroom, or at the dining room table. Yet, the prevailing model has promoted a mentality based on fear, false bravado, and hiding any sign of weakness. In other words, the old model of toughness has failed us.Steve Magness, a performance scientist who coaches Olympic athletes, rebuilds our broken model of resilience with one grounded in the latest science and psychology.

The Very Hard Book - Idan Ben-Barak
Can you ...Forget this line?Dig half a hole? This book asks you to imagine and think about some things. That sounds easy, right? Anyone can think stuff. You don''t even need to be standing up. We shall see. Good luck.Metacognition is the act of thinking about thinking and forms the basis of all critical thought. It is also a concept that comes easily to children whose inquisitive nature makes them a natural at engaging in abstract questions and open-ended thinking. The Very Hard Book starts that ''thinking'' journey and has a great deal of fun in the process.

The Thing about Jellyfish - Ali Benjamin
It''s peculiar how no-words can be better than words. How silence can say more than noise, or a person''s absence can occupy even more space than their presence did. Suzy is twelve when her best friend, Franny, drowns one summer at the beach. It takes two days for the news to reach Suzy, and it''s not something that she can accept: Franny has always been a strong swimmer, from the day they met in swim class when they were just five. How can someone all of a sudden, just no longer be there?Suzy realizes that they must have got it wrong: Franny didn''t just drown - she was stung by a poisonous jellyfish. This makes a lot more sense to Suzy''s logical mind than a random drowning - cause: a jellyfish sting; effect: death. Suzy''s journey to acceptance is quiet - she resolves to either say something important, or say nothing at all. But it''s also bursting with bittersweet humour, heart-breaking honesty, big ideas and small details. The Thing About Jellyfish is an astonishing debut novel from Ali Benjamin, and is perfect for fans of Wonder, Counting By 7s and My Sister Lives on the Mantelpiece.
