School communities identified these children as the “throwaways”-children who often experienced bullying, abuse, foster care, juvenile detention, and special education services. In this book, children with learning differences engage in artmaking as sensemaking to deepen their understanding of what it means to live on the margins in U.S. public K-12 schools. Their artmaking calls upon educators, school leaders, and policymakers to actively engage in addressing the injustices many of the children faced in school. This book is revolutionary. For the first time, children with learning differences, teachers, staff, and school leaders come together and share how they understand the role artmaking as sensemaking plays in empowering disenfranchised populations. Together, they encourage school community members to examine pedagogical practices, eliminate exclusive policies, and promote social justice-oriented work in schools. Their artmaking inspires new ways of knowing and responding to the lived experiences of children with learning differences. They hope their work encourages school communities to make authentic connections to improve their learning, capacity to love others, and of most importantly, to value oneself. Authors’ first-tellings capture the human experience of navigating through oppressive educational systems. Authors urge us to consider what it means to be empathic and to engage in the lives of those we serve. Their truths remind us to that standing still should never be an option.

Dennis Havens has been writing most of his life. His latest work, GINGERS, is story of murder, intrigue and international espionage set in the unlikely setting of Lake Hockey, Wisconsin. GINGERS is Dennis's fifteenth novel to be published with Xlibris. It is the tale of a specialized kind of mayhem, the slaying of redheads. Because it contains so many clues, some of them red herrings and others legitimate, there is little else that can be said about the book, without giving away major plot points. "The only thing safe to say is that its main character and romantic lead is a redheaded girl named Tessa," Havens says. "For anything more, you'll have to read the book."
