(Humor) "Not what you'd expect-but when you get it, you'll love it." - Jodi O. Brown, author. Award-winning author Karl Beckstrand (To Swallow the Earth) captures with simplicity the essence of non-offensive, politically correct communication (for 60 multicultural books, click Karl Beckstrand above). With so much that is disturbing, distasteful, and degrading in the world, here is something inoffensive, appropriate, and safe for the entire family. (Be prepared, the humor delivery method may be a jolt for some readers.) Beckstrand encourages (in a wise-guy kind of way) the expression of important ideas and respectful dialogue-which often lead to serendipitous solutions that neither side would have arrived at without the other. This book is in no way intended to encourage silence. Rather, it encourages (in a unique way) each person not to let important ideas or messages be muted or muffled by societal constraints-especially not by unconstitutional limits on free speech.

"A bit of everything: adventure, melancholy, joy...common sense and pathos.... Simple language and homespun charm." - Barbara Mojica, writer. Ransom "Doc" Wilcox's adventures began in Taber, Alberta, Canada in 1907, but he was soon whisked to the back country of Northern California where his family farmed, tended livestock, and sometimes got by via hunting and fishing-always with horses and dogs. Once, when the hunter became the prey-of a charging wild boar-Wilcox stuck a pole he was carrying into the ground and climbed up! Another time his Australian Shepherd saved him from a mad boar. Wilcox's love of animals, music, and the great outdoors flows in his nature-themed tales (for ages 9 and up, fourth grade - twelfth grade). They convey courage, devotion, and perseverance with warmth and sincerity. See/listen to Wilcox's International Book Award winning western: To Swallow the Earth.
