INFO For Families, 2017. 158 pages. Reading Level: Teen, ages 12 and up Recommended For: Upper middle grades and up (ages 10+) Growing up is never easy. There are physical changes, emotional changes, social changes, intellectual changes…. And our American culture is increasingly confusing the issues: screens make porn a mere click away. Magazines in the checkout lines at the grocery store are lurid enough to make ME seek out the “Family Friendly” aisle where it’s only candy, word searches, and impulse buys like tiny flashlights. Increasingly, the messages against “toxic masculinity” and the encouragement to boys to be delicate, effeminate, and wear skinny jeans are only confusing the issue further. What’s a guy to do?…

Carvin Winans ‘In The Softest Way’ Review
Carvin WinansIn The Softest Way (The Dance Factory) The Winans are gospel royalty and any fruit from the family tree is worth your time and attention. However, Carvin Winans’ new album, In The Softest Way, is an especially en-joyable adult R&B release filled with silky smooth grooves a la Maxwell or Eric Benét.

Guest spots from Kenny G (the title…
