We first met when he was in 5th grade, and I was his school's visiting author. I was impressed then because he was well into his first novel. Several years later, he has finished that novel with skillful rewrites, more developed characters, and enticing plot revisions yet keeping the appealing and authentic voice of a 5th grader. Allison: The Adventures of Three Ordinary Kids and an Extraordinary Alligator, Daniel Kim's first middle-grade novel, will delight, entertain, and inform his future readers, and they will eagerly await his next book." Trinka Hakes Noble Author/Illustrator of Children's Books ******************************* "Daniel Kim's first realistic fiction novel combines adventure, suspense, non-fiction facts, and an innate understanding of relationships among siblings. His novel, begun when he was at Brooks Crossing Elementary School, is a wonderful testimony to creative writers who take ownership of their writing and create wonderful stories while doing so. Daniel's novel will be a hit with young readers who will love the way he develops the adventure and the characters, who meet with danger and keep secrets from their parents. This is a fun, fast, and fabulous read!" Jodi Mahoney Author/Principal of Brooks Crossing Elementary School

In the 1990's there were campus revivals and awakenings all over the United States. Students were praying and asking GOD to invade their campuses with a real sense of GOD's nearness and Presence. One campus that was affected was the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. There were many factors around the movement in the 1990's that touched the school, this story is from the perspective of a few of the students that prayed for GOD to come. And GOD came near. This book is more than a biography or historical account, it is a record of the facts and information surrounding a true movement of revival on America's first State University as well as an embedded call to action for students of this current era to press into GOD, to attempt the impossible, to press in through prayer and ask GOD for the unthinkable. A new movement in this era. If you either know a student who is in college or heading to college or you have a student in your family, get this book for them. It will call them to be set apart and to believe for more than the normal college kid is after on campus. And if you are a student, let us ask you... Why stand by and watch another generation slide away? Why not ask GOD what you can do in your generation and take a risk. Why not start a movement of prayer on your campus? It only takes one to start a fire. Who knows. It might be a forest fire!

This is a mathematics textbook that covers mostly precalculus topics with some introductory calculus, as well as more advanced topics that are often not covered by a standard high school curriculum. A chapter proceeds by first establishing some central definitions and then further mathematical consequences, gradually developing the topic from scratch in the process. Unlike many other textbooks in precalculus, this book places emphasis on the art of mathematical proof, with an abundant supply of theorems, lemmas, and other problems that require such proofs. Detailed solutions and proofs are supplied as well.The main purpose is to aid readers who wish to learn precalculus and advanced supplemental topics through a more theoretical and abstract perspective and challenge their mathematical critical thinking skills rather than solve simple computational problems. The book is intended to develop the reader's conceptual understanding of the subject, as well as harness their curiosity in exploring such advanced topics. Furthermore, the book can be used as a supplementary text for students currently taking a precalculus or similar level math class who wish to learn more and go beyond the standard precalculus chapters, and into more abstract, advanced topics that are often not taught in many high schools at all.
