"From the moment children start learning how to talk, they're told over and over to "use your words." But using your words isn't just about asking for a toy or for something to drink; it's about communicating one's needs-emotionally, spiritually, and practically. Harold Green III's Words Are My Superpower offers practical advice for tweens on how to be more mindful of what they're trying to say and how the words they choose have the power to change not just their own lives but others'. Some of the greatest "villains" in our lives include anxiety, fear, disappointment, and failure. But if we look to language as a way to empower ourselves-thanks to affirmations, mantras, compliments, and more-we can defeat anything that stands in our way while lifting up those around us. Green expertly weaves a metaphor about categories of words acting as superheroes throughout this guide to help readers harness the superpowers offered by optimism, gratitude, and more. Infused with Green's gorgeous poetry and Andrea Pippins's eye-catching illustrations, Words Are My Superpower teaches the importance of positive thinking and communication for young people to effect change"--

"Professor of Sociology Dr. Joanna Kemper follows a group of people united only by debilitating cluster headaches, who, after coming together in the early days of the internet, developed their own medicine from home-grown mushrooms, produced near-clinical grade trials and dosing protocols, and managed to get academics at Harvard and Yale to test their work and results. In the process, this extraordinary story reminiscent of John Carreyrou's Bad Blood and Michael Pollan's How to Change Your Mind explores not only the fascinating history and exploding popularity of mushroom science, but also proves that the United States has set up a regulatory and legal system so repressive that our most innovative therapies for pain are being developed underground by sick people forced to break the law just to find relief, and how, in turn, corporate America, and sometimes devious academics, stand to profit from their transgressions"--
