Written by professional cartoonist Art Roche, it gives kids lots of hands-on opportunities to turn their creative ideas into delightfully drawn reality. The emphasis is on doing original illustrations and developing a personal vision, rather than tracing or copying someone else’s style; after all, cartooning is a free and fun form, so there’s no “wrong” way to draw one. Roche also includes plenty of information that other children’s how-to books overlook, including advice on writing jokes, composing panels, and getting published. In short, it addresses every step of the process, from buying a pencil to seeing the cartoons in print. |

Aunt Mae’s China $15.51 Why would a young woman give up a nursing career, a marriage proposal, and her family to head for South China, thousands of miles from home, where few had gone before?In the middle of World War I, when the United States Navy was heading to the Mediterranean to offer support to England and France, Beatrice Mae Tonkin was boarding a boat to take her in the opposite direction across the Pacific to the Kwangsi (Guangxi) province where she would spend most of the next twenty-seven years and where her life would be filled with dangerous adventures as she pioneered answering God’s call.Hated by the Chinese who thought she and her colleagues were masquerading as foreign imperialists, these so called “foreign devils” risked life and limb for the Master, while Mao and the Chinese Communist Party, a few provinces away, were preparing for their clever takeover of China.As Aunt Mae’s life story unravels, you learn it is juxtaposed with extraordinary encounters of danger and hardships between the years of 1917-1944, when China went through the reign of river pirates, corrupt warlords, dangerous philosophies, rogue armies, Japanese bombings, effects of WWII, the vicious actions of the CCP, and epidemics, but she remained undaunted in her task of carrying out the Great Commission of Jesus Christ and continued planting the seeds of Christianity until she was forced to leave.Bernice Anderson Verbyla spent twenty-five years as an English, journalism, and creative writing teacher in New Jersey and Virginia at the secondary level. She was also director of Central Press news bureau, at Morris Hills Regional H.S. where her students supplied major newspapers of northern New Jersey with twenty stories a week. |

Best Contemporary Jewish Writing $0.99 “The message that the world could be healed and transformed was revolutionary when first articulated by Jewish writers of the past, and it remains radical even today. . . .Cruelty is not destiny. Jewish writing helps us understand that the pain of the past can be transcended.” — From the Introduction by Michael Lerner Between the covers of this book is a treasure trove of great fiction, poetry, social analysis, and spiritual insight by renowned contributors such as Philip Roth, Marge Piercy, Senator Joseph I. Lieberman, Naomi Wolf, Norman Podhoretz, Jonathan Rosen, Robert Pinsky, Yehuda Amichai, Rachel Adler, Nathan Englander, Daniel Boyarin, Adrienne Rich, Arthur Waskow, William Safire, Zalman M. Schachter- Shalomi, and many others. Included are famous writers, young and upcoming writers, writers with politics ranging from liberal/progressive to neoconservative. Despite their disparate opinions and points of view, these writers have been chosen by Michael Lerner because they transcend the cynicism and narcissistic self-indulgence of contemporary culture and contribute to the Kabbalistic vision of a world that has been shattered but, can be healed. For some writers, the focus is on personal transformation (tikkun atzmi), for others on healing of the world (tikkun olam.) Still others search for ways to bring holiness into our personal lives and social institutions. You will be astounded at how much creative new thinking is taking place among Jewish writers, and on topics that are extremely sensitive: the Holocaust, the limits of Jewish liberalism, women in Judaism, the current crisis in Israel, and the renewal of Jewish spiritual life. The first volume in a planned series of annual publications, Best Contemporary Jewish Writing is an essential tool for understanding contemporary culture and social reality. You don’t have to be Jewish to be moved and to learn from these authors. The poetry, fiction, memories, and essays |

Bible Hoax $18.95 Bible Hoax is a novel where daring spiritual inspiration blends with mainstream entertainment. People are always asking and debating whether or not they can trust God, but this novel digs into the soul to find out if God can trust us? So much is revealed about the faith when a shocking, ancient writing excavated in Jerusalem finally comes to light. The written document had been hidden away for sixty years as a result of a murderous cover-up by the U.S. government; it strongly suggests what many disbelievers feel is the truth, that creative writers wrote the books of the Bible so that humanity would have a higher being to humble itself to.Told through the lives of the diverse and compelling characters in this novel, cracks in their spiritual make-up are exposed through pretense, societal norms and practices, and faulty reasonings. The reader will become engrossed in a world full of disbelief, disobedience, murder, lies, greed, and hatred. Along with the characters in the book, the reader will learn that this harsh lesson was meant to open the eyes of the faithless and prevent their downfall by unmasking their disbelief to create a new era of faith and trust in our God and Savior. Bible Hoax will help the reader to recommit to their spiritual enlightenment by gaining a stronger understanding of the spiritual challenges that face us in this world today. |

Bodies in motion. An experiential study of creative movement and yoga with young children. $49.99 Movement experiences can support the healthy development of children by providing opportunities for them to learn about the mind-body connection, increasing their movement repertoires, and enabling them to explore emotional and psychological issues with others. Movement is a particularly effective medium in which to relate to young children, whose capacity for verbal language is still developing. This thesis utilizes a qualitative, multidisciplinary, and experiential approach to explore the psychological and emotional implications of a combined approach of creative movement and yoga with children ages three to seven. The approach is informed by Dance/Movement Therapy and Body Mind Centering. I present and discuss observational data and reflective creative writing informed by my teaching in a yoga studio, improvising movement interactions in a preschool class, and experientially exploring the concepts as a student of movement. |

Calculus II $295.69 Created specifically for a Calculus II course and as a second volume for students who have completed either the Larson team’s Calculus I, 8/e, or Calculus I with Precalculus, 2/e text, Calculus II, 8/e, comprises chapters 6-10 of the full Calculus, 8/e, text. The text continues to offer instructors and students new and innovative teaching and learning resources. The Calculus series was the first to use computer-generated graphics, to include exercises involving the use of computers and graphing calculators, to be available in an interactive CD-ROM format, to be offered as a complete, online calculus course, and to offer a two-semester Calculus I with Precalculus text. Every edition of the series has made the mastery of traditional calculus skills a priority, while embracing the best features of new technology and, when appropriate, calculus reform ideas. Now, the Eighth Edition is the first calculus program to offer algorithmic homework and testing created in Maple so that answers can be evaluated with complete mathematical accuracy. Two primary objectives guided the authors in writing this book: to develop precise, readable materials for students that clearly define and demonstrate concepts and rules of calculus and to design comprehensive teaching resources for instructors that employ proven pedagogical techniques and saves the instructor time. The Eighth Edition continues to provide an evolving range of conceptual, technological, and creative tools that enable instructors to teach the way they want to teach and students to learn they way they learn best. |

Creating Poems: Introductory Writing Exercises $12.46 This is a book for those who wish to learn to read poetry and to understand poetry better by writing it. I have included several examples of my own poems herein (not entirely out of vanity, but to provide examples and to remark upon my own personal experiences in writing the poems), as well as poems and excerpts by other writers. I think everyone- all of our ordinary citizens-should learn to read and write poetry, if for no other reasons than those offered several years ago by former President John F. Kennedy:When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man’s concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.As a powerful nation, America needs poetry; this need seems quite evident in our time, as is especially illustrated by the repeated political posturing to which we have unfortunately allowed ourselves to become accustomed. (From the Introduction.)For students and their teachers of literature, this book provides a new and fresh approach to learning poetry. One can find many causes that the reading of poetry for personal pleasure and profit and as a vital subject in American schools has recently declined, but the question remains: What can we do about it? My proposal is to excite students by offering them an opportunity to express their experiences and concerns through writing poems. That is the purpose of this book.Richard E. Mezo, writer and educator, received his Ph.D. in English Language and Literature from the University of North Dakota in 1978 and completed a course of study in Education at Western Washington University in 1988. He has taught at colleges and universities in the U. S. and overseas, and more recently, at a secondary school in Guam and at DoDDS schools in Germany and Japan. He is the author of several books and has published in various magazines and journals, both professional and creative. Dr. |
