This week's reviews include Paul Newman's "scathingly honest, vulnerable and inspiring" memoir, The Extraordinary Life of an Ordinary Man, based on interviews he did with a close friend from 1986 to 1991; Revenge of the Librarians by Eisner-winning cartoonist Tom Gauld, "a delightful series of inside jokes for the literary-minded"; and Anne of Greenville by Printz and Caldecott honoree Mariko Tamaki, in which beloved classic character Anne of Green Gables is "magnificently reconceived as a spirited modern teen."
For those needing a bit of inspiration, a challenge and reassurance on the parenting/caregiving front, here are a few books to boost your confidence and get you thinking.
