...teacher and a mother of two, Anne Betz knows how important a good school is to the life of a small town. Still, it wasn't until Katrina had practically destroyed her hometown of Pass Christian, Miss., and reduced her brand-new house to a mere concrete slab that Betz, 37, realized what a lifesaver a good school could...
...Coast community of 7,000 or so, where golf balls and oysters now dot debris fields filled with waterlogged furniture, bathroom fixtures and broken china--not the Catholic church, not the local Wal-Mart, not the gas stations.

"Cooking is the newest and coolest hobby for tweens [ages 8 to 12]," says Debra Dorfman, president and publisher of Grosset & Dunlop, a division of Penguin Putnam, which in May is launching a series called Dish. Each book will include a story about friendship and a recipe card. Another book, PB&J USA (Small Potatoes...
