Abstract
Bonjour ! Je m?appelle Camille. J?ai 9 ans. Je collectionne les figurines, j?adore les chevaux et le théâtre et je suis? très maladroite. En fait, j?ai un handicap qui s?appelle la dyspraxie. Sais-tu ce que c?est ? En fait, la dyspraxie (ou trouble d?acquisition de la coordination) est un trouble neurologique qui affecte la capacité à planifier, à organiser et à automatiser les gestes moteurs pour réaliser une action. En d?autres termes, c?est une difficulté à effectuer les bons mouvements. Destiné aux enfants d?âge scolaire et à leurs parents, cet album documentaire présente, un peu à la manière d?un scrapbook réalisé par un enfant, l?histoire de Camille, qui est dyspraxique. Simple et concret, cet ouvrage de vulgarisation explique aux enfants, dans leurs mots, ce qu?est la dyspraxie. Camille y aborde les difficultés et les questionnements liés à son intégration scolaire, à sa vie de famille et aux divers défis psychosociaux qu?entraîne sa condition. Plusieurs trucs concrets et conseils avisés agrémentent cet ouvrage illustré par les enfants de l?École Saint-Jean-Baptiste à Jonquière.

Abstract
The social world is a big, complicated place that requires us to constantly figure out hidden rules in situations to help us make sense of how we are all interpreting and responding to each other?s actions and reactions. This book teaches students how to recognize and develop social skills. Every one of us is a Social Detective. We are good Social Detectives when we use our eyes, ears, and brains to figure out what others are planning to do next or are presently doing and what they mean by their words and deeds. This extensively expanded and revised 2nd edition provides all-new illustrations that reflect a broader range of inclusion and diversity in characters, a structured approach to observation, and new and updated lessons which include practice for readers as they learn to become social detectives?a skill set that can then be used everywhere they go, whether it?s at home, school, or within the community. Interventionists will find specific teaching tips and an expanded glossary of Social Thinking Vocabulary and concepts to guide young readers in exploring tools to help them make smart guesses to ultimately figure out the social emotional chain reaction. Enjoy watching your students and own children blossom day-by-day into successful Social Detectives!

Abstract
You Know, Sex is the first thoroughly modern sex education book for every body, covering not only the big three of puberty?hormones, reproduction, and development?but also power, pleasure, and how to be a decent human being.
Centering young people?s experiences of pressures and joy, risk and reward, and confusion and discovery, there are chapters on body autonomy, gender, consent, pornography, masturbation, stigma, boundaries, harassment,
trauma, and a lot more.
The puberty, anatomy, and reproduction chapters include trans, nonbinary, and intersex bodies and experience, and all of it takes place in our contemporary, media-saturated world (aka, there?s lots of smart phones and social media).
Racially and ethnically diverse, inclusive of cross-disability experience, You Know, Sex is a book for every kind of young person and every kind of family?essential for kids, everyone who knows a kid, and anyone who has ever been a kid.
