      In 2008, 26–year–old Tik Maynard faced a crossroads not unlike that of other young adults. A university graduate and modern pentathlete, he suffered both a career–ending injury and a painful breakup, leaving him suddenly adrift. The son of prominent Canadian equestrians, Maynard decided to spend the next year as a "working student." In the horse industry, working students aspire to become professional riders or trainers, and willingly trade labor for hands–on education. Here Maynard chronicles his experiences–good and bad–and we follow along as one year becomes three, what began as a casual adventure gradually transforms, and a life's purpose comes sharply into focus. Over time, Maynard evolved under the critical eyes of Olympians, medal winners, and world–renowned figures in the horse world, including Anne Kursinski, Johann Hinnemann, Ingrid Klimke, David and Karen O'Connor, Bruce Logan, and Ian Millar. He was ignored, degraded, encouraged, and praised. He was hired and fired, told he had the "wrong body type to ride" and that he had found his "destiny." He got married and lost loved ones. Through it all he studied the horse, and human nature, and how the two can find balance. And in that journey, he may have found himself.

      The Reflective Workbook for Teachers and Support Staff of Trans and Non-Binary Students
    • Refleksyjny poradnik dla rodziców i rodzin dzieci transpłciowych jest dokładnie tym, co zapowiada tytuł. Jest przeznaczony dla rodziców i rodzin, którym często przewraca się świat, kiedy dowiadują się, że ich dziecko kwestionuje nadaną mu przy urodzeniu płeć. Mało kto jest na to przygotowany, mało kto wie, jak rozmawiać z dzieckiem, prawie nikt nie wie, jak poinformować o tym otoczenie, jak zwracać się do dziecka, jakie formalności medyczne i prawne należy załatwić a potem pojawia się długi ciąg spraw i sytuacji, z którymi trzeba jakoś się uporać. Trzeba również się uporać ze swoimi, nieraz trudnymi emocjami. Trzeba nauczyć się terminów, z którymi do tej pory miało się rzadko lub wcale do czynienia. W tym wszystkim pomaga Refleksyjny poradnik Autorka, D.M.Maynard ponad 30 lat pracowała z osobami transpłciowymi i ich rodzinami. Zna emocje i doradza, jak je kontrolować. Uczy terminologii poprzez wyjaśnienia, ćwiczenia, nawet krzyżówki i wykreślanki. Podaje sposoby, jak się zrelaksować, jak dbać o siebie. Doradza, jakiego typu pomoc prawna może być potrzebna (w polskim wydaniu dodaliśmy wykaz stron internetowych, pomagających w znalezieniu odpowiednich kontaktów).
