      During his five years in public office, Secretary Gerald Oriol Jr. recognised his country's critical shortage of children's literature, particularly related to disability, and encouraged his friend and adviser James English to create a children's book for Haiti. Galia's Dad Is in a Wheelchair aims to counter negative stereotypes and stigmas surrounding disability.

      Kniha profesora anglické literatury na University of Pennsylvania se zabývá vznikem, historií a fungováním literárních a filmových cen i vším, co se kolem nich odehrává. Popisuje způsoby, jak ceny a jejich udělování zavedly jakousi „hru“, která se spoléhá na příznivé přijetí či rozhořčení, jež vzbuzují u kritiků i nominovaných. Autor sleduje statistické údaje o růstu publikovaných knih i o vzniku nových cen.
