[BHE 429] Massive Book Haul (Part 2 of 2)

Myra here.

I am currently heading a research project here in the United Arab Emirates that examines the portrayal of the diverse “other” in picturebooks, including but not limited to people with special educational needs, high creatives, gifted and talented people. I posted the first part of my massive book haul last week, and here is my Part 2. I am also including a few books that I bought for my own personal summer reads and my various online book clubs.
