Her latest book, Grunt: The Curious Science of Humans at War, takes us behind the scenes to show us the men and woman who work to keep our fighting forces healthy, sane, and relatively safe. ![]() ![]() She has parlayed her curiosity about everything and her delightfully immature sense of humor into a career shedding light on weird science. If I wasn’t a librarian, I would love to have a job like Mary Roach’s. These searches frequently turn up bizarre studies that make me wonder how on earth anyone got their grant approved (getting rats addicted to cocaine comes to mind here). ![]() One of my favorite things as a librarian is helping people search for odd topics. ![]() ![]() ![]() Pizza, after all, does not come “from a telephone. Just consider all that can be explored in the kitchen: counting, reading readiness, science awareness, self-confidence, patience, and, importantly, food literacy.

The novel begins with the young Nujood at a courthouse in Sana’a. ![]() This tale is not told chronologically, so the reader jumps back and forth in time throughout Nujood’s early childhood, her move to the city of Sana’a, her marriage, her divorce, and her post-divorce life. Yemen’s beauty and wonder are contrasted with this violence as a backdrop and as crucial context for Nujood’s tale. Nevertheless, in the introduction, the voice is that of Minoui, who introduces us to a strange and wonderful country that has been fought over by outsiders throughout its history and is now marred by violence from within. Minoui never specifies how she and Nujood co-wrote the book, so the reader is tasked with separating out Nujood’s thoughts and Minoui’s interventions throughout the work. The novel begins with an introduction to the country of Yemen and to Nujood’s story written by Delphine Minoui, the book’s second and adult writer. Nujood published her biography, co-written with French journalist Delphine Minoui, in 2010, two years after her controversial divorce. I Am Nujood, Age 10 and Divorced tells the story of Nujood Ali, a Yemeni girl who is possibly the youngest divorcée in the world. ![]() ![]() ![]() Olive Ann Burns wrote only one complete novel in her life, Cold Sassy Tree, published in 1984, but one was enough to make her beloved to readers everywhere. It was this work that she would return to for inspiration when her theatrical career faltered and the opportunity to bring a cherished novel to life presented itself. ![]() But five years later, while the theatrically released Mommie Dearest (1981) proved to be a disappointment, her work in television, in Evita Peron and The Country Girl, proved a great success. ![]() This happened to Dunaway as well and when Chinatown (1974) brought her back, and Network (1976) won her an Oscar, she found herself on top again. Of course, the first thing that happens to superstars is they seek out more personal films now that they have the clout to do so ( Puzzle of a Downfall Child, The Deadly Trap ), those small personal films perform poorly, they take supporting roles in more commercial ventures ( The Towering Inferno, 1974) and then, after a few years, poise for a comeback. After only a couple of films, and a very bad experience with director Otto Preminger in which she had to sue to be released from her five film contract, she was cast in Bonnie and Clyde (1967), received an Oscar nomination for Best Actress for the very same film, and found herself starring next to international superstar Steve McQueen only a few months later in The Thomas Crown Affair (1968). Faye Dunaway became a superstar in a very short span of time. ![]() ![]() ![]() With over 7 million copies worldwide sold to date, these award-winning books provide just the information needed for students, families, or anyone interested in concise, thought-provoking refreshers on a single subject. ![]() ![]() Series Overview: Big Ideas Simply Explained series uses creative design and innovative graphics along with straightforward and engaging writing to make complex subjects easier to understand.
