For example, Magdalena from Germany is vegetarian and was looking for a host. She wrote: I live in Germany in a small village with my parents and my two 18 years old brothers, but they are currently also doing an exchange year, so instead of them, another exchange student is living with us. We have three cats which I really adore. I think we are going to have a great time because I’m an open person who cares about the people around me. I would like to try cheer leading since I have a lot of experience in dancing. In my free time I like to listen to music and sing, go out with my friends, and at home I like to bake and cook. I love food, so I would like to try some of the typical American dishes, but I’d also like to cooks some German specialties for you.

In the latest issue of Vegan Journal, Senior Editor Rissa Miller reviews two books: Bear Boy and Kind Poems. Rissa says, Bear boy is a young adult book that details the true story of a teenage boy in California who not only inspires incredible change in a zoo, but also raises a quarter of a million dollars to save two bears and place them in a sanctuary—all before he could drive. It’s a page turner, no matter the reader’s age. You may want to keep a box of tissues nearby, too, just in case.

Kind Poems is for literature or animal lovers. This collection of 55 eloquently written free-form poems brings the plight of animals in modern society into the limelight. Poignant and heartfelt writing and evocative imagery offer the readers a chance to re-examine their relationship with animals, the earth, and each other.

In the latest issue of Vegan Journal, Amy Burger reviews the book California Vegan, by Sharon Palmer, RD. Amy says, “California Vegan, like the recipes it features, is bright, fresh, and inspired by the state itself. While California’s myriad cultural influences and distinct regions are the themes of its chapters, the unifying thread is an emphasis on fresh, seasonal produce. Palmer’s health conscious recipes are easy to follow and are accompanied by beautiful photographs.
