The author's successful search for her birthfamily brought answers to questions she had asked since childhood. Many other individuals are asking the same questions. Gathering the Missing Pieces in an Adopted Life guides anyone who might have some connection to the adoption process: adopted individuals who wonder whether finding missing relatives is right for them; adoptive parents who struggle with how to share information with their children; and birthfamily members who wonder whether they have the right to know children from whom they were once parted. Although the book is partially autobiographical, it also includes stories of at least sixty other individuals who have some adoption connection. Although her own search, and those of many quoted, had a positive outcome, Moore also references the various challenges and pitfalls that can occur during this emotionally charged process. She helps readers examine the pros and cons of finding birthfamily members and explores the long-term outcome of several reunion experiences. For adoptive parents, the book helps explain why some adoptees must search, no matter how loved and secure they have felt growing up--an insatiable need that evades most persons who have grown up knowing their biological families. It suggests ways to answer their adoptive children's questions at age-appropriate stages and provides helps for people considering adoption. For birthparents, the book features the stories of several who have been found and how the process filled in important gaps for them as well. It shows how the sometimes lonely, staggering decisions that they made earlier impact their lives for years to come. Each chapter concludes with a handy reference on how the various members of the adoption "triad"--birthfamily, adoptees, and adopted persons--can relate to and use the information contained therein. The author contends that adoption presents lifelong challenges for all parties involved but encourages readers by enumerating a lifeline of helps available to families today as never before. Moore also gives attention to the rapidly changing laws, regulations, and expectations surrounding adoptions, and she includes a thorough listing of references, agencies, and other adoption resources.;

In 1896 Lt. James Moss, second lieutenant at Fort Missoula, Montana, had a revolutionary idea: that bicycles, a relatively new innovation, could be employed by the military to replace cavalry horses for certain operations. Bikes did not need food, water, or rest; they would not die; they would never disobey their rider; and they were nearly noiseless. The eager young lieutenant set out to test this idea and prove the worth of the bicycle in army campaigns. Stationed at Fort Missoula at the time was the 25th Infantry, and all-black regiment. From these African American troops, Lt. Moss chose an elite group to form the Bicycle Corps and attempt a historic 2,000-mile journey to St. Louis. In the The Great Bicycle Experiment, Kay Moore chronicles this challenging journey, highlighting the hardships and triumphs of these stalwart soldiers as they pedaled and pushed their way across the mountains and plains into history. Perfect for school or home, The Great Bicycle Experiment is both a valuable historical resource and an entertaining adventure story for readers young and old.

The seventh installment of Mountain Press’s state-by-state series for teen readers, Bold Women in California History reveals what women can do when they dare to be bold. From Sally Ride, the first American female astronaut, to Yoshiko Uchida, Japanese internment camp survivor turned children’s author, to Elvira Virginia Mugarrieta, who dressed as a man in order to do things women of the time could not, the thirteen women portrayed in this collection broke down barriers of sexism, racism, and political opposition to emerge as heroines of their time. Whether that meant pushing for change in the state senate, as Rose Ann Vuich did, or escaping slavery and later doing good for the community, as Bridget “Biddy” Mason did, each and every one of these stories, unique as they are, show ways in which women have created lasting change. Perfect for school or home, this collection of short but informative biographies is both a valuable resource and an entertaining read.
