New Non-Fiction

Winfield, Cynthia. Gender Identity. The Ultimate Teen Guide. YA/ 616.6/ WIN
The book examines what is meant by sex and gender from typical gender roles and stereotypes, through those who transcend the usual categories of male and female. In addition to historical and factual information, teen voices and popular media's depictions of gender issues are included. Gender Identity: The Ultimate Teen Guide is written for all teens with an interest in gender-what it is, how it is expressed-especially those teens questioning their own (or a friend or family member's) gender identity. Straight (heterosexual) and LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and questioning) youth, and the adults who live and work with them will want to read it, as well as educators, counselors, school board members, and parents.

Withers, Jennie. Hey, Get a Job! A teen guide for getting and keeping a job. YA/ 650.14/WIT
A book that tells it like it is. Gives a lot of advice and answers all the most commonly asked questions.
