This is the remarkable memoir of the small girl (5 foot 1 inch tall) with the huge voice. At the age of 15, in 1964, Lulu - born Marie Lawrie in Glasgow - was already a star with her international hit song 'Shout'. At 18 she stole hearts as an English schoolgirl to Sidney Poitier's teacher with the movie hit 'To Sir With Love'. At 21, she married a Bee Gee, Maurice Gibb, and tied as winner of the Eurovision Song Contest with 'Boom-Bang-a-Bang'. Yet in 1993 she reached No.1 with 'Relight My Fire' (with Take That). Nearly forty years at the top of the showbiz tree, Lulu has never been afraid to experiment with new trends, and her book reflects the daring that took a girl from a Glasgow tenement to international stardom - as 'To Sir With Love' says, 'from crayons to perfume'. I DON'T WANT TO FIGHT (the title of a song Lulu wrote and Tina Turner recorded) is the devastatingly candid autobiography of a singer who has never shirked from facing anything.

A lot of people wonder how Chinese parents raise such stereotypically successful kids. They wonder what Chinese parents do to produce so many math whizzes and music prodigies, what it's like inside the family, and whether they could do it too. Well, I can tell them, because I've done it... Amy Chua's daughters, Sophia and Louisa (Lulu) were polite, interesting and helpful, they had perfect school marks and exceptional musical abilities. The Chinese-parenting model certainly seemed to produce results. But what happens when you do not tolerate disobedience and are confronted by a screaming child who would sooner freeze outside in the cold than be forced to play the piano? Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother is a story about a mother, two daughters, and two dogs. It was supposed to be a story of how Chinese parents are better at raising kids than Western ones. But instead, it's about a bitter clash of cultures, a fleeting taste of glory, and how you can be humbled by a thirteen-year-old. Witty, entertaining and provocative, this is a unique and important book that will transform your perspective of parenting forever.

Separation and miles cannot keep a determined cardinal from his loved one in an ode to serendipity and belief that is destined to be a Christmas classic. Red and Lulu make their nest in a particularly beautiful evergreen tree. It shades them in the hot months and keeps them cozy in the cold months, and once a year the people who live nearby string lights on their tree and sing a special song: O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree. But one day, something unthinkable happens, and Red and Lulu are separated. It will take a miracle for them to find each other again. Luckily, it’s just the season for miracles. . . . From Matt Tavares comes a heart-tugging story combining the cheer of Christmas, the magic of New York City, and the real meaning of the holiday season: how important it is to be surrounded by love.

Feisty Lulu sets out to make some dough in this illustrated chapter book with “plenty of appeal” (Kirkus Reviews) from children’s book legends Judith Viorst and Lane Smith. The stubbornly hilarious Lulu has decided it’s time to buckle down and earn some cash. How else can she save up enough money to buy the very special thing that she is ALWAYS and FOREVER going to want? After some failed attempts at lucrative gigs (baking cookies, spying, reading to old people), dog walking seems like a sensible choice. But Brutus, Pookie, and Cordelia are not interested in making the job easy, and the infuriatingly helpful neighborhood goody-goody, Fleischman, has Lulu at the end of her rope. And with three wild dogs at the other end, Lulu’s patience is severely tested. Will she ever make a friend—or the money she needs? In this standalone sequel to Lulu and the Brontosaurus, children’s book legends Judith Viorst and Lane Smith once again prove that even the loudest, rudest, and most obstinate of girls can win us over.

From the leaves of a taco tree, I give you crumbs of poetry… LuLu’s Anthology is a free verse phenomenon. Simple rhymes about complicated times; complex rhymes that scheme for a way out and words that scream from the depths of my soul. Tales from an outcast’s downtrodden woes; defiant declarations of not wanting to fit in and a search for self-liberation. Narrations of hard working people and evidence of how hard life is being broke. One night stands that lead to wedding rings, little flings with human beings that should have angel wings, and all of the little things that make life so beautiful. Lonely cries of lonesomeness that finally get to be heard and documentations of parties filled with debauchery. Oh, the hypocrisy! These poems are just as human as you and I. Now, imagine if Drake and Taylor Swift had a baby and that child started listening to 2pac and reading Emily Dickinson’s poems; LuLu’s Anthology is that child! These poems are sad lyrics with dope rhymes. Lyrics without music, for you already have the melody and rhythm inside of you. Songs for the head that aren’t meant to be sang out loud, for the world is already loud enough. May these lines bring tranquility to your spirit, and I hope that when you read these lines you see my own spirit and hear it too; my spirit sings of life! Also, and I’m sorry, but if you have a pompous British accent, please try and read this in your best American accent, for this is American poetry; A diary from a first generation immigrant—hear me roar! I’m just a kid from the Southwest trying to do my best. This is my sunset and I have nothing to hide. Pieces of my heart are scattered all throughout these pages, for I’m a lover. Heartbreaks are just part of the occupation and this is first hand documentation. I kiss a lot and say the f word occasionally, but I have not written disdainfully; these are my truths. I’m not sophisticated and these lines are alike, for I don’t write for the pretentious—no, this is for everyday people trying to make it. These poems aren’t for the critics, they are for you.
