Historia
In her memoir, a work of deep reflection and mesmerizing storytelling, Michelle Obama invites listeners into her world, chronicling the experiences that have shaped her - from her childhood on the South Side of Chicago to her years as an executive balancing the demands of motherhood and work to her time spent at the world's most famous address. With unerring honesty and lively wit, she describes her triumphs and her disappointments, both public and private, telling her full story as she has lived it - in her own words and on her own terms.

Historia
Like most Americans, you might think of Ben Carson as a trailblazing brain surgeon and, in the last few years, as an outspoken commentator on national issues. But his wife of more than 40 years knows him as so much more: A loving husband, a devoted father, a devout Christian, a committed philanthropist, and a fierce patriot. Now Candy Carson introduces us to the private side of a very public figure as she shares the inspiring story of their marriage and their family.

Historia
When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give such a lecture, he didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. But the lecture he gave - "Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams" - wasn't about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because "time is all you have... and you may find one day that you have less than you think").

When Reyna Grande was nine years old, she walked across the US-Mexico border in search of a home, desperate to be reunited with the parents who had left her behind years before for a better life in the City of Angels. What she found instead was an indifferent mother, an abusive, alcoholic father, and a school system that belittled her heritage. With so few resources at her disposal, Reyna finds refuge in words, and it is her love of reading and writing that propels her to rise above until she achieves the impossible and is accepted to the University of California, Santa Cruz.

Resumen del Editor
She came to China with a lesson plan. What she found was a new sense of purpose.
Amy Young traveled to China in the mid-1990s to teach English to educators. But she never expected the profound way they would enrich her soul. With the influence of the enchanting country and its extraordinary everyday people, Amy extended a two-year assignment to nearly two decades far away from home.
Starting shortly after her arrival, Amy shared her stories and her unique perspective through a series of letters. Her nine years of correspondence demonstrated a country going through growing pains: from political unrest to the SARS epidemic to budding prosperity. Amy battled language barriers, cultural faux pas, and invasive mice with nothing to lose. She even fought for her life with a potentially deadly illness, unsure if she'd survive to share her tale.
Throughout her journey, Amy drew strength from God and came to appreciate the beauty and power of an ordinary life lived well. Love, Amy: An Accidental Memoir Told in Newsletters from China is one woman’s deeply moving journey of self-transformation. If you like humorous anecdotes, immersions in Eastern culture, and honest stories that aren’t afraid to dig deep, then you’ll love Amy Young’s heartfelt tale. Buy Love, Amy for an inspirational guided tour into the heart of China today!

Every day, three times a day, the students march in two straight lines, singing praises to Kim Jong-il and North Korea: Without you, there is no motherland. Without you, there is no us. It is a chilling scene, but gradually Suki Kim, too, learns the tune and, without noticing, begins to hum it. It is 2011, and all universities in North Korea have been shut down for an entire year, the students sent to construction fields - except for the 270 students at the all-male Pyongyang University of Science and Technology (PUST).

Jillian Daugherty was born with Down syndrome. On the day Paul and Kerry, her parents, brought her home from the hospital they were flooded with worry and uncertainty, but also overwhelming love, which they channeled to “the job of building the better Jillian”.

Historia
When Edward M. Hallowell was 11, a voice out of nowhere told him he should become a psychiatrist. A mental health professional of the time would have called this psychosis. But young Edward (Ned) took it in stride, despite not quite knowing what "psychiatrist" meant. With a psychotic father, an alcoholic mother, an abusive stepfather, and two so-called learning disabilities of his own, Ned was accustomed to unpredictable behaviour from those around him and to a mind he felt he couldn't always control.

Part memoir and part how-not-to guide, The Wrong End of the Table is everything you wanted to know about Arabs but were afraid to ask, with chapters such as “Tattoos and Other National Security Risks,” “You Can’t Blame Everything on Your Period; Sometimes You’re Going to Be a Crazy Bitch: and Other Advice from Mom,” and even an open letter to Trump. This is the story of every American outsider on a path to find themselves in a country of beautiful diversity.

Deluded Green Girl Writes Home to Church Fan Club
Amy’s so-called book is actually the dutiful fund-raising letters back to her church community that sent this terribly green girl out to China to convert to her sappy brand of Christianity Chinese people who only wanted to perfect their English. The church organization sent her to China but apparently could not see to it that her living accommodations were clean and free of rats, bats and palm-sized spiders. Amy writes her letters to remind her organization’s supporters to keep sending money. Yes, she has a Master’s Degree, but the woman seems clueless about “finding food” and is shocked that the Chinese spit in the street. And to make it all even worse, her sister narrates the work extremely fast and all on one tone blah blah blah. I lived in San Francisco many years and studied Mandarin at the Chinatown extension of the junior college. [I have also lived in Spain and Germany, both free of such unhealthy conditions as poor stupid Amy saw fit to tolerate to the glory of God.] Of course I could see great differences between educated Diana Chi’an across the street, the polished Chinese-American legal secretaries I worked with, the grocer’s son who was late for our date, and all the little grandmothers who pushed to get on the bus.] I do know how difficult it is to speak to small-scale merchants, to ask for what you need and then learn how to cook or use it. There is always a harpy who won’t let a girl sample the lipstick colors [Germany] or touch the gorgeous tomato [Paris]. In Madrid, I bought mouthwash to clean my floor; it was among the cleaning products and looked like Spic-n-Span. Still, people around the world eat vegetables and some kind of starch. The veggies can be steamed, boiled or sautéed if you have a little oil. Noodles can be boiled. The Chinese surely have systems for cooking rice. And once Amy and her buddies figure out how to cook for themselves, she doesn’t describe any of that. No, interesting descriptions are thin on the ground. They get very sick and also suffer what I believe was a spider bite. So we are treated to pathetic descriptions of grim hospitals. For a lovely listen, I recommend Mao’s Last Dancer, which describes a young man’s home-sickness, his fervent prayers and struggle to perfect his dancing, tremendous success around the world, and eventual embracing of Christianity. I trust that for would-be missionaries, Amy’s letters will provide food for thought.
