One of my own kids favorite events during their elementary school years was the annual book fair. A section of the cafeteria would be set up with a huge display put on by the folks at Scholastic Books. On their website, Scholastic Books tells us that just last year alone, twenty-eight million kids attended school book fairs, and that one hundred million books got into kids' hands from the fair. If you click around on the Scholastic Books website you'll soon discover that the company is now promoting a “read with pride” campaign, as they are, and I quote, “proud to celebrate LGBTQIA+ stories with new and award winning books for kids and teens!” Scroll down the page and you will learn about pride-themed books for young adults, for kids ages eight to twelve, and for readers as young as three to five. Our kids are forming their beliefs and behaviors all through their childhood and teen years. And with so many voices teaching them about sex and gender, it's imperative that we teach them God's design.

The first conversation we've had about cover design in games! We discuss how book covers are often the first thing people see of our games, how a well-designed cover can stick in someone's memory, and how a great cover isn't just about first impressions—it can make you want to pick up a book again and again. And a special thanks to our editor, Rob, for letting us know that yes, Scholastic Book Fairs do still exist.

Ave Maria University and Ignatius Press have teamed up to offer Ignatius Book Fairs, a Catholic-focused book fair for parents and schools who want to offer their children an alternative to the Scholastic Book Fairs, which have recently become a haven for inappropriate content for children. Today, on “Follow to Lead” we're talking with Fr. Joseph Fessio, SJ, about the current state of book fair content and this new Catholic-based approach. National alternatives to such inappropriate and harmful content have not existed until now, leaving Catholic schools in a difficult position when they want to provide great books to their students. Ignatius Book Fairs has been launched to fill this void, with the ability to ship a high-quality, beautiful and fun book fair anywhere in the United States.

Do you ever find yourself consumed with the 'voice inside your head'? How do you separate out what is helpful vs what is harmful?  When do you speak up to obtain the necessary tools and resources to come out of a difficult situation? These are some of the topics discussed in the latest episode of the podcast! Author John Schu stops by the podcast to discuss his latest book 'Louder Than Hunger' and he and Joe get into a deep conversation about how to navigate some of life's most difficult times growing up. Also, because John is a librarian there are plenty of discussions around libraries, enjoy! About John Schu John Schu has made a career out of advocating for the people and things he cares about most: kids, books, and the people that connect them.

About 'Louder Than Hunger' Revered teacher, librarian, and story ambassador John Schu explores anorexia—and self-expression as an act of survival—in a wrenching and transformative novel-in-verse. But another voice inside me says, We need help. We're going to die. Jake volunteers at a nursing home because he likes helping people. He likes skating and singing, playing Bingo and Name That Tune, and reading mysteries and comics aloud to his teachers. He also likes avoiding people his own age . . . and the cruelty of mirrors . . . and food. Jake has read about kids like him in books—the weird one, the outsider—and would do anything not to be that kid, including shrink himself down to nothing. But the less he eats, the bigger he feels. How long can Jake punish himself before he truly disappears? A fictionalized account of the author's experiences and emotions living in residential treatment facilities as a young teen with an eating disorder, Louder than Hunger is a triumph of raw honesty. With a deeply personal afterword for context, this much-anticipated verse novel is a powerful model for muffling the destructive voices inside, managing and articulating pain, and embracing self-acceptance, support, and love.   Make sure to check out the Dtalkspodcast.com website!

Whitney Clark takes us on a trip down memory lane! Her guest this week is Laura Sharp, the owner of a Gilbert-based pop-up bookstore. Literally, A Bookshop is a children's bookstore that also hosts events for grown-ups! Think the Scholastic Book Fair, but instead of your school gymnasium, events for adults are hosted at wine bars and breweries across the Valley. You can buy a book while drinking a beer or a glass of wine, while also connecting with your fellow readers. Laura shares why she started the events for adults, what it's like owning an independent bookstore, and the magic of introducing kids to books.

Sandria Washington asks the question: How did I go from writing my first short story in crayon to living inside the biggest plot twist of my life (and trust me, God has written me into some BIG ones these first 40 years of life)? ⁣She knew from an early age that books, words and stories would always be her saving grace. She remembered when her parents separated and the lights got turned off and her father moving out. ⁣⁣Sandria and my mother would walk to the library and she'd let her check out a stack of books. There wasn't any time for her to be sad; She was too busy reading and making up her own stories.⁣Like many little book lovers of the early 80's, She was a school spelling bee winning-Chicago Young Authors writing-Scholastic Book Fair anticipating-Book It! Pizza Hut personal pan pizza eating scholar. ⁣⁣By the time Sandria arrived on the campus of U of I, she didn't know what she wanted to do with her life. She minored in English and received her B.S. in Advertising. Her post-college professional career has been....interesting. ⁣She's been an editor, advertising account executive, freelance writer, blogger, corporate communications AVP, and an entrepreneur.⁣In between all of this, Sandria has been a theater and film actress, award-winning natural hair model, radio personality, event curator, and certified yoga teacher - just to name a few! As her friends often like to remind her, “Sandria is a whole mood!” she can't argue. ⁣Sandria as a creative liked to taking the scenic route in life and loved a good backstory. She believed everything lived through and the tools she picked up along the way - particularly the sudden death of her mother in 2011, a 20 year practice of journaling and being a student of yoga - helped prepare her for April 2, 2018 and the call that would change her life.⁣On the Monday following Easter Sunday and April Fool's Day, standing in her kitchen, she finally made the call to her aunt that she'd been putting off for months. “Is it true that I'm adopted?” Her confirmation set in motion a search not only for her backstory, but the untold stories of other Black adoptees.⁣https://www.blacktothebeginning.com/A Year of Black Joy: A Year of Black Voices Share Their Life's Passion https://www.amazon.com/s?k=a+year+of+black+joy&crid=23WEFDYEVB8GO&sprefix=a+year+of+black%2Caps%2C161&ref=nb_sb_ss_ts-doa-p_1_15Music by Corey Quinn

Kirk Cameron became a household name on hit sitcom "Growing Pains" in the late 80s, but has decided to use his fame to provide families an alternate to mainstream children's programming that has gone completely woke. He joins us to discuss how the Scholastic Book Fair we used to know and love, is now full of X-rated content. He exposes that content, gives parents action steps to get involved and explains what lead him to this path.  Kirk also weighs in Marvel's latest woke flop, the content he's putting out with Brave Books and all we have to be grateful for going into Thanksgiving.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Today we're joined by our friend Kirk Cameron to talk about his new book, "The Fox, the Fair, and the Invention Scare," as well as the rise of inappropriate books for children in schools and why it matters to fight back. First, we recap our last conversation with Kirk, in which he declared public schools enemy number one. Is this still the case, and what should Christians who work in public schools do to combat the ever-growing hostility toward their worldview? We look at where inappropriate children's books are coming from and explain how Scholastic Books is a wolf in sheep's clothing attempting to force gender ideology books among the books we know and love. Kirk shares about his alternative to Scholastic Book Fairs, SkyTree Books Fairs, and we discuss why he feels to passionately about this subject and why it's so important for us as Christians to stand against the indoctrination of kids. We end with some encouragement on creating good soil for our children and the optimism we can have. --- Timecodes: (01:12) Public education (07:30) Scholastic Books (13:06) Sky Tree book fairs (14:30) How did Scholastic get to this point?

Being a school administrator has never been easy, but today's education climate has made the work of many school leaders downright unsustainable. With ongoing narratives of so-called learning loss, a return to test-centered teaching, political shenanigans at local school boards, and the apparent deprioritizing of culturally responsive teaching and SEL, how can principals sustain themselves and do right by their students and staff? This week we're joined by Dr. Tonikiaa Orange, the Director of the Principal leadership Institute as well as the Culture and Equity Project at UCLA Center X!! She helps us examine the role of school leaders in today's challenging climate. But first, Jeff and Manuel take a look at recent headlines in education including a nationwide ban on cell phones in UK schools and an ongoing controversy surrounding the Scholastic Book Fair. → Get your Teach the Truth T-Shirt here! → View this episode on YouTube!

This week's BFG podcast starts serious, stays serious, and gets a little less serious by the end, but we cover the cultural waterfront like no one else.Sharyn Vane opens the proceedings by talking about her recent article on Scholastic Publishing's recent decision to segregate various "diverse" titles at book fairs to try and work around conservative state government attempts to restrict access to children's literature. We've covered these attempts in the past, and think they're wrong, but Scholastic has come up with a clumsy workaround. This has appalled writers and publishing professionals and librarians, and Sharyn is on the beat as always.Stephen Garrett stops by to talk about Martin Scorsese's 'Killers of the Flower Moon,' a worthy adaptation of the David Grann nonfiction bestseller that both Neal and Stephen think is too long, too reverent, and hampered by a somewhat weird Leonardo DiCaprio performance. There's much to admire in this movie, but neither Neal and Stephen think they will watch it again, and they will watch just about anything again.Scott Gold appears like an apparition to review 'The Fall of the House of Usher.' If you love Edgar Allan Poe, this is the Poe you will get in the 21st Century. Gold loves creator Mike Flanagan's writing, and both he and Neal admire the performances, particularly TV veterans Bruce Greenwood and Carl Lumbly. Neal doesn't like the non-linear narrative structure, but maybe he's an old grump who you should ignore sometimes. Maybe.Enjoy our podcast!

We start off by finding out what the kids are getting at the Scholastic Book Fair, then blink in amazement at sequels to classic books that probably shouldn't have them.
