Young&#8217;s plainly delivered, poetic text achieves a subtly conspiratorial tone, as the little girl establishes the specialness of brown chocolate syrup and gray&#8217;s &#8220;curled-up kitten&#8221; coziness. ... An ... interesting meditation on the resonance of color, for classroom or family sharing.&#8212;Kirkus ReviewsIn this engaging story, a little girl realizes that not everyone feels the same about colors. ... Art teachers will gravitate toward this upbeat title to let children begin to explore the importance of color.&#8212;School Library JournalThe emotional statements about colors are effectively grounded in evocative, kid-oriented similes that add substance for listeners trying to make sense of the abstract relationship between colors and feelings. ... At the core of the narrative is the celebratory idea that people experience the world differently and that there is no end of possibilities in perspective, making this a remarkably useful text not only for color units but for exploring themes of community and the ways people are alike and different.&#8212;Bulletin of the Center for Children's BooksReaders and young listeners can have some good conversations about their own color perceptions after sharing this warm, deceptively simple concept book.&#8212;The Horn BookI love Jessica Young&#8217;s MY BLUE IS HAPPY! I'm adding it to my list of must-have books to inspire creative thinking. Catia Chien's vivid art is delightful, while really driving home the book's much-needed message about thinking beyond stereotypes. Highly recommended not just for art teachers, but for any teacher or parent wanting to inspire children to think more creatively about color, art, and our world.&#8212;Peter H. ReynoldsIn this delightfully original picture book, author Jessica Young takes a fresh look at familiar colors, using them as the foundation for a story that celebrates individuality and the pleasures of living in a world informed by multiple perspectives.&#8212;BookPage Children's CornerChildren ages 3 to 6 will love this rich rainbow book... Sad, happy, mad, or glad, the kaleidoscope of colors opens up infinite possibilites for seeing the world from other perspectives.&#8212;Kiwi Magazine

"Community Re-entry is an invaluable contribution and compelling must-read not only in academic scholarship, but also to all front-line workers in community social services devoted to work with marginalized and isolated criminalized women, and those at-risk of criminalization. Merging several theoretical frameworks – relational, post-structuralism, critical feminist, disability and race theories – allows the researchers to contextualize what are often pathologized needs and risk factors. It further permits a critical evaluation of what are often characterized as new and innovative terms, such as empowerment, as continuing the retributive patterns such language sought to redress originally. The findings corroborate many found in this body of literature – uniquely gendered pathways, systemic forces guiding a woman’s ‘choices,’ and the intersecting needs to be addressed – with perfect articulation and context 28 years after Creating Choices was published. As a community agency devoted to the integration of women, this research supports the value of our ongoing quest toward meaningful, supportive connections and sense of belonging for all women." – The Elizabeth Fry Society of Kingston (Stacey Alarie, Programs Administrator)
"Pedlar, Arai, Yuen and Fortune offer readers an urgently-needed examination of women’s experiences in the Canadian federal correctional system and emerging from it. A rare, 10-year longitudinal study with impeccable scholarship, the book prioritizes the insights, voices and analyses of women who are themselves navigating the system. Community Re-Entry: Uncertain Futures for Women Leaving Prison　is a must-read, and I hope we all listen to its recommendations!" – Simone Weil Davis, Associate Director of Ethics, Society & Law at Trinity College, the University of Toronto; co-founder of the Walls to Bridges program at Wilfrid Laurier University, Kitchener 
"A place to call home, a fairly compensated job, connections to family and friends, a regard for one’s personhood and the sense that one matters all have the power to stop the revolving door we have become so tragically accustomed to in our correctional system. The book not only gives voice to those rarely heard (women inside corrections) it also amplifies basic principles of justice and common sense that have been lost to ill-conceived notions of evil. The evidence on what we need to do to succeed in rehabilitation is well documented, not new and surprisingly simple: If getting out means you enter the “nowhere society,” staying out is almost impossible. Instead, being valued, having the chance to meaningfully contribute to community, being included, being met with authenticity and compassion and having your basic needs met are our most powerful tools for change. They are also the very essence or upstream prevention. This book shines a light on the shadow sides of incarceration that follow on the heels of decades of neglect of knowledge in an attempt to cater to a perceived vengeful public." – Christiane Sadeler, Executive Director, Waterloo Region Crime Prevention Council

A Yankee Book Peddler UK Core Title for 2011  'Gendered Experiences of Genocide is a valuable resource and a compelling account of Saddam Hussein's war against the Kurds. Dr Hardi’s thorough study illuminates this under-researched subject with clarity and restraint, and her command of the facts and analysis of survivors’ narratives make for gripping reading.  It is a must read for anyone interested in gender and genocide.'   Myrna Goldenberg, Independent Scholar   'Abandoned by the outside world and the international community, these women's memories are a shuddering cry of desolation. This is a book about murder, suffering, and the illegal and terrible acts of those who had the power to decide the fate of so many. We who listen to and read these stories not only have much to learn from them; we must also strive to ensure that their urgent present day needs are met.' Selma Leydesdorff, University of Amsterdam; writer on the voices of the women of Srebrenica  'Overall, Gendered Experiences of Genocide is an impressive book - the level of detail it contains about women's’ experiences of Anfal is unmatched, its writing style is cogent and energetic, and its contention that this is a genocide that slips past individual and collective memories when it ought not, is potent... it should be widely read by specialists and non-specialists alike.' Gender and Development  'Choman Hardi's book is a brave account written on behalf of those women interviewees who 'give testimony and demand justice through their power to confront the powerful'.' Contemporary Review  '... the author’s commitment to searching for the truth matches her intention to represent and narrate the stories of women who, in the aftermath of genocide, are injured and traumatised, and, most of all, whose opaque words and worlds have since remained silenced... Hardi’s work should be widely read because it is an original work providing a platform for further reflection about issues related to the r

“Gender, Metal, and the Media is a thoroughly enjoyable and enlightening book. Readers will leave energized, thinking about gender and fandom in new ways. With its solid use of subcultural theory, this book’s primary audience would be scholars of subcultural studies, but it should also be of interest to scholars and students of media, culture, and gender studies.” (Elizabeth Cherry, Feminist Media Studies, Vol. 18 (1), December, 2017)

Advance praise: 'This revised and expanded edition is a further great contribution to the fight against corruption in all its forms. While the authors observe on the substantial progress that has been made, they acknowledge the difficulties in achieving a comprehensive global agreement, when national interests and values differ. Let us all hope that legislators and leaders throughout the world will recognize the common benefits of adopting the actions here recommended.' James D.

'Genocide still features on today's front pages. This book offers intriguing insights into our collective failures of imagination and practice in preventing and punishing mass atrocity. It will be of interest to lawyers and policy makers, and to all who seek to understand the origins of our tragic institutional shortcomings and our moral debt to the memory of the victims.'
