When the first edition of A Different Mirror was published in 1993, Publishers Weekly called it "a brilliant revisionist history of America that is likely to become a classic of multicultural studies" and named it one of the ten best books of the year. Now Rebecca Stefoff, who adapted Howard Zinn's best-selling A People's History of the United States for younger readers, turns the updated 2008 edition of Takaki's multicultural masterwork into A Different Mirror for Young People. Drawing on Takaki's vast array of primary sources, and staying true to his own words whenever possible, A Different Mirror for Young People brings ethnic history alive through the words of people, including teenagers, who recorded their experiences in letters, diaries, and poems. Like Zinn's A People's History, Takaki's A Different Mirror offers a rich and rewarding "people's view" perspective on the American story.]]></description><link>https://bellingham.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S150C548243</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://bellingham.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S150C548243</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Stefoff, Rebecca]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2012 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://bellingham.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/548243150</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle>A History of Multicultural America</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781609804176/MC.GIF&amp;client=wclsiii&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Colonial Life]]></title><description><![CDATA[Presents the history of the British colonies in North America, beginning with the Jamestown settlement, through excerpts from letters, pamphlets, journal entries, and other documents of the time.]]></description><link>https://bellingham.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S150C32547</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://bellingham.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S150C32547</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Stefoff, Rebecca]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2003 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://bellingham.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/32547150</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780761412052/MC.GIF&amp;client=wclsiii&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Viking Explorers]]></title><description><![CDATA[Traces the history of Viking exploration and conquest in Europe and North America.]]></description><link>https://bellingham.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S150C13530</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://bellingham.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S150C13530</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Stefoff, Rebecca]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 1993 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://bellingham.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/13530150</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780791012956/MC.GIF&amp;client=wclsiii&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Supernavigators]]></title><description><![CDATA[This book explores the incredible navigational abilities of animals, like how birds find food, how humpback whales navigate across oceans, and how Arctic terns travel vast distances without getting lost.

Sally Ride may have been the first US woman in space, but did you know there were five other incredible American women who helped blaze the trail for female astronauts by her side? When NASA sent astronauts to the moon in the 1960s and 1970s, the agency excluded women from the corps, arguing that only military test pilots-a group women were also aggressively barred from-had the right stuff. But as the 1980s dawned so did new thinking, and six elite women scientists-Sally Ride, Judith Resnik, Anna Lee Fisher, Kathy Sullivan, Shannon Lucid, and Rhea Seddon-set out to prove they had exactly the right stuff to become the first US women astronauts. In The Six Young Readers Edition, acclaimed journalist Loren Grush shows how these brilliant and courageous women fought to enter STEM fields they were discouraged from pursuing, endured claustrophobic-and often deeply sexist-media attention, underwent rigorous survival training, and prepared for years to take multi-million-dollar equipment into orbit. Told with contributions from nearly all the living participants and now adapted for young readers, this book is an inspiring testament to their struggles, accomplishments, and sacrifices and how they built the tools that made the space program run. It's a legacy that lives on to inspire young people today"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://bellingham.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S150C729535</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://bellingham.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S150C729535</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Grush, Loren]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://bellingham.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/729535150</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Untold Story of America&apos;s First Women Astronauts : Young Readers Edition</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781534497047/MC.GIF&amp;client=wclsiii&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Young People's History of the United States]]></title><description><![CDATA["Beginning with a look at Christopher Columbus's arrival through the eyes of the Arawak Indians, then leading the reader through the struggles for workers' rights, women's rights, and civil rights during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and ending with the current protests against continued American imperialism, Zinn presents a radical new way of understanding America's history.

Having sold nearly two million copies, the book won an American Book Award and the Oliver Cromwell Cox Award for Distinguished Anti-Racist Scholarship. Now Rebecca Stefoff, the acclaimed nonfiction children's writer who adapted Howard Zinn's bestseller A People's History of the United Statesfor young readers, makes Loewen's beloved work available to younger students. Essential reading in our age of fake news and slippery, sloppy history, Lies My Teacher Told Me: Young Readers' Edition cuts through the mindless optimism and outright lies found in most textbooks that are often not even really written by their "authors." Loewen is, as historian Carol Kammen has said, the history teacher we all should have had. Beginning with pre-Columbian history and then covering characters and events as diverse as the first Thanksgiving, Helen Keller, the My Lai massacre, 9/11, and the Iraq War, Loewen's lively, provocative telling of American history is a "counter-textbook that retells the story of the American past" (The Nation). This streamlined young readers' edition is rich in vivid details and quotations from primary sources that poke holes in the textbook versions of history and help students develop a deeper understanding of our world. Lies My Teacher Told Me: Young Readers' Edition brings this classic text to a new generation of readers (and their parents and teachers) who will welcome and value its honesty, its humor, and its integrity]]></description><link>https://bellingham.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S150C652235</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://bellingham.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S150C652235</guid><category><![CDATA[EAUDIOBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[und]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Loewen, James W.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://bellingham.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/652235150</comments><format>EAUDIOBOOK</format><subtitle>Everything Your American History Textbook Got Wrong</subtitle><language>und</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781980042624/MC.GIF&amp;client=wclsiii&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Young People's History of the United States]]></title><description><![CDATA[Now in paperback, this is the new, illustrated, and updated single volume young adult edition of Howard Zinn's classic telling of American history.
