Shifra Malka and her quite fab debut memoir Dare to Matter: Lessons in Living a Large Life are all Monkeybicycle and "If My Book..." and that is quite fab as well. Please do take a look here, please enjoy some excerpt below and if you're interested in reviewing Dare to Matter, interviewing Shifra or any kind of promotion at all really, please let me know.

"If Dare to Matter: Lessons in Living a Large Life could be a real person, it would be a little she, dressed in some version of the color orange, without any hint of a girly, dainty pink. Short, lacy-white cuff socks are tightly hugging her plump ankles, smugly stuffed into her mother’s high heels. On the wrong feet, of course.


"Her name is young Shifra, named after the main character and grown author, Shifra, in the Dare to Matter story.

"Young Shifra, like grown Shifra, was not supposed to be what she turned out to be: a larger than expected body of work, 340 pages of a highly- personal narrative. A memoir, in fact, that features a core message that insisted on having its say. Young Shifra started out presenting interviews that grown Shifra had conducted as the producer and host of a live radio program covering social and educational initiatives."
