So much harm comes into this world when the wrong thing is said. But that's nothing compared to the pain from what goes unsaid.

For me, Superman's greatest contribution has never been the superhero part: it's the Clark Kent part - the idea that any of us, in all our ordinariness, can change the world.

I need the kind of help that comes with a side order of help.

I played Little League for one year. That was it. Then my mother realized I liked books and threatened my father. I owe her forever for that.

There's nothing wrong with wanting someone to save us - or admitting we can't do it all ourselves.

On the day my daughter was born, I started writing a book for her. The plan was that, over the course of her life, I'd fill it with advice on how to be a strong woman. But along the way, I got caught up in the stories of Amelia Earhart, Sally Ride, and so many others. So how do you pick the best heroes for your kids?
