 | Judy Moody by Ed Sala, Megan McDonald, Peter Reynolds
Judy Moody always seems to be in a bad mood lately, and nothing can stop it because more and more awful things seem to be happening to her--she has to sit next to a boy who eats paste on the first day of school, her brother gets to tour the White House while she plays the role of a cavity in a school play, and a toad even pees in her hand! Judy's sure that the year is just going to get even more gross, even more annoying, and she's going to be in even more bad moods. But CAN it get any worse? Named one of the Best Children's Books 2000 by Publishers Weekly. AUTHOR: Ed Sala, Megan McDonald, Peter Reynolds

 | World Hunger by Frances Moore Lappe, Joseph Collins, Peter Rossett
Drawing on and distilling the extensive research of the Institute for Food and Development Policy (FoodFirst), Lappe, Collins, and Rosset examine head-on the policies and politics that have kept hungry people from feeding themselves around the world, in both Third- and First-World countries, as well as the misconceptions that have obscured our own national, social, and humanitarian interests. Written in a straightforward, easy-to-read style, World Hunger: Twelve Myths shakes many tenaciously held beliefs; but most important, it convinces readers that by standing together with the hungry we can advance not only humanitarian interests, but our own well-being.
