Snap judgment / by Clark, Marcia,author.(CARDINAL)345351;
When the daughter of prominent civil litigator Graham Hutchins is found with her throat slashed, the woman&#x2019;s spurned ex-boyfriend seems the likely suspect. But only days later, the young man dies in what appears to be a suicide. Or was it? Now authorities are faced with a possible new crime. And their person of interest is Hutchins. After all, avenging the death of his daughter is the perfect reason to kill. If he&#x2019;s as innocent as he claims, only one lawyer has what it takes to prove it: his friend and colleague Samantha Brinkman. <p> It&#x2019;s Sam&#x2019;s obligation to trust her new client. Yet the deeper she digs on his behalf, the more entangled she becomes in a thicket of family secrets, past betrayals, and multiple motives for murder. To win her case, she&#x2019;s prepared to bend any law and cross any boundary that stands in her way. Sam has always played by her own rules, and it&#x2019;s always worked&#x2026;so far. But this case cuts so deep and so personal that one false move could cost her everything.

Race cars : a children's book about white privilege / by Devenny, Jenny,author,illustrator.; Gordon, Charnaie,editor.;
Includes bibliographical references (page 40)."Race Cars is a children's book about white privilege created to help facilitate tough conversations with their kids about race, privilege and oppression. It tells the story of two best friends, a white car and a black car, that have different experiences and face different rules while entering the same race. This book is important because as early as 6 months, a baby's brain can notice race-based differences, by ages 2 to 4, children can internalize racial bias and start assigning meaning to race. 5 to 8-year-olds begin to place value judgments on similarities and differences. By age 12 children have a complete set of stereotypes about every racial, ethnic, and religious group in society. Our guidance is especially crucial during this impressionable time. Race Cars offers a simple, yet powerful way to introduce these complicated themes to our children."

Soon Sandy's tangled up in yet another murder - and Patrick, who's currently playing a private detective on TV, believes he's essential to solving the whole thing. . ."--

Meatless? : a fresh look at what you eat / by Elton, Sarah,1975-author.(CARDINAL)565918; McLaughlin, Julie,1984-illustrator.(CARDINAL)615729;
"Meatless Mondays. Eat less meat for climate change. Trendy vegan bake shops. Cage-free chicken campaigns on Youtube. Happy meat vs. industrial beef. Flexitiarianism. Mark Bittman's Vegan before 6 pm. Across North America, people are talking a lot about meat. Whether to eat it, or not. Whether to go vegan. Or, if they're going to eat meat, they're talking about what kind is the best kind. This book takes a fresh look at the world of vegetarianism, exploring the history, culture and philosophy behind the practice of cutting meat from one's diet, including religious reasons. The book will also explore the modern reasons why people choose to skip the burger (climate change, industrial agriculture, environment in general), though in a non-judgmental way that makes space for all kinds of choices. Sarah is a meat eater-though a conflicted one. And this is the perspective that is reflected in the text. The final two chapters of the book will explore what the nutritional alternatives to meat are and offer suggestions for how to make meals from breakfast through to dinner without meat."--Includes bibliographical references (page 47) and index.1020L
