Ever wondered what it would be like to see the world through the eyes of children? Through Children's Eyes was inspired by Sarah Brittany Sandbach's first-grade students. Through countless unforgettable moments in the classroom, Ms. Sandbach developed an idea that might share these same thoughts with the world. Whether it is hopping on furniture because the floor is lava or building forts to read under, children have the right idea when it comes to viewing the world. The life we live is full of inspiring people and blessings; though it can sometimes be over-shadowed by situations that block that perspective. About the AuthorSarah Brittany Sandbach's love of writing has followed her since she was very young. After winning first place in the Young Georgia Author's contest in elementary school, she knew she needed to continue this path. She attended Georgia Southern University in Statesboro, Georgia, where she fell in love with the idea that she could write as well as do what she felt she was truly called to do: teach. After graduating with an Early Childhood Education degree, Ms. Sandbach started her career as a first-grade teacher. It was in this classroom she thought to share the idea that most adults do not have the opportunity to experience each day and often forget to see the world through the eyes of children.

It's billed as "The Greatest Amateur Racing Event in the World" and that is an accurate statement. Modern terminology has called it "The Gravity Grand Prix." Whatever name you attach to it, Derby people just call it the "All-American." It started as a city race in Dayton, Ohio, in 1933 and in two short years it became a national competition. Originator Myron Scott, through some creative promotion and the sponsorship of Chevrolet, brought it to national prominence. The first three books of this series covered the move from Dayton to Akron and the construction of Derby Downs followed by six years of prosperity and growth. World War II caused a delay, but we will see in this book it was but a bump in the road. The program resumed and in the years since there have been several hundred thousand participants who have been watched by millions. The Derby has undergone many changes over the years, but the focus has always been to make it safe, fair and fun. About the Author To call Ronald Reed a Derby fan would be a gross understatement. He has attended more All-American races than any living person (65). Reed has three loves: his family, sports officiating and the Derby. Reed's wife of 55 years, Sandy, and his three daughters, Leslie, Denise and Valerie, have been a source of pride his entire adult life. Officiating baseball for 51 years, football for 32 and basketball for 22 have kept him active and in excellent physical condition and enabled him to make lifelong friendships. After graduating from professional umpire school in Florida, Reed began teaching umpiring in the Akron area and became well-known and respected. It was in the 1970s that he first tried his hand at wood carving. Since then he has honed his craft and fashioned miniature replicas of the winning racers in the Derby. His collection now numbers over 500 and includes the first through ninth place cars each year beginning in 1933 and currently continues through 1985. And the carving goes on. Reed's introduction to the Derby came at age seven when he saw his first All-American race in 1949. He was hooked and began attending every year. As wife Sandy puts it: "With Ronnie the Derby is not a hobby. It's an obsession."

Learning To Be Me is offered as an assist in addressing the many struggles encountered by adult children with Toxic Shame issues. The author gained his understanding of Toxic Shame through the works of John Bradshaw, beginning with the book Healing the Shame That Binds You. Until the author discovered this life-changing publication, he dismissed the idea that childhood experiences could have a continuing impact on adult lives. Through enlightenment achieved from John Bradshaw's writing, the author understands that abuse is defined by the abused, not the abuser. He came to realize that the verbal, physical, and emotional abuse he experienced as a child caused him to think, feel, and act as if he were less worthy than others. The daily reflections offered herein represent common issues faced by those of us with Toxic Shame. You will find this book helpful in reclaiming your unique gifts. About the Autho r Like too many others, the author spent the greater portion of his life struggling with the Toxic Shame he was given in his early years. He became fiercely independent at the age of twelve, when he realized the extent of his past abuse and that there was very little family support available to him. He also discovered alcohol at that age, which reinforced his independence and his social-avoidance behaviors. Today, he is fortunate to have sobriety through the grace of God and the fellowship of Alcoholics Anonymous. He is fortunate to have been given the opportunity to become certified as an Alcohol and Other Drug Counselor by the State of Wisconsin, his status now being retired emeritus. He knows the difference between the healthy shame of being told he made a mistake and the Toxic Shame of being told he is a mistake. He considers the inner child and Toxic Shame concepts to be as valuable as any of the twelve step principles in changing lives. He believes that sobriety is the single most important change an alcoholic can make, in that it removes the alcohol from alcoholism. This book is intended to help people address the lingering "ism" of toxic shame, which persists long after sobriety is achieved. He capitalizes Toxic Shame to bring attention to its insidious, persistent nature.

The author Vanessa Y. Reed was inspired to write Red Storm by God through His Holy Spirit. She clearly remembers the day God spoke to her, sitting at work and feeling empty because she just lost her mom. God said to the author, "Write a book," and the author looked puzzled - she knew it was God's voice and His prompting that was leading her, but why write a book? The author asked God, "Write a book about what?" God replied, "About your life." The author felt she didn't want her life on display and, furthermore, who would be interested in hearing about a survivor of molestation, domestic violence and drug addiction? The author asked God, "What do I say?" God said, "Tell the truth." The author asked God, "Where do I start?" God said, "From the beginning." Red Storm is inspired by true and actual events. Writing this book was very painful. So many memories were brought to the surface. Having been beaten, battered, abused, feeling hopeless, and wanting to die, the author cried out to God. At one point while writing this book, the author could actually remember the smell of one of her molester's cigarette-stench breath. Some of the memories made the author cry while writing this book. The author now understands why God had her write her life story. Mainly to help those who are still suffering especially in silence and to let others know that if you seek God, He will answer your prayers. He promised He would never leave nor forsake us. This book is a living testament to the Grace, Mercy, and favor God gives over our lives. If one life is changed or touched by the author's testimony then she's touched many.

Why "pearls of wisdom"? My mom says she always felt she had an old soul, and her mom was full of practical tips for navigating through life, so "pearls of wisdom" became a theme for them. From relationship to investing tips that never wear with time, this book is a compilation of my mother's "pearls of wisdom," some of which you may have already heard in your own home. We know you were raised with common sense and that many of these insights will sound familiar to you, but we thought memorializing them in writing could make for a helpful resource at different stages of your life. About the AuthorsEveryone's mother seems to be dispensing logical, sound advice on a regular basis, but if you were like me growing up, much of it went in one ear and out the other...even after the tenth time you heard it. My mom and coauthor of this book, Elena Chase, has been divulging unique and beneficial insights ever since I could talk. Amidst wanting to complain about her nagging, I now have come to realize that I live by this unwritten motherly advice code, which falls somewhere between verbalized logic and conscious choices in trying to be a decent, responsible adult. Of course, some of her pearls of wisdom relate to more specific aspects of life, such as, "Always buy stocks of companies with products or services you understand and use frequently," or "Purchase purses with zippers so nothing accidentally escapes it in the car or on public transportation." However, the majority of her helpful hints have been guideposts to making wise choices in life and striving to achieve goals.

The Seventh TalentBy: Joseph RiddleFor centuries, a mysterious sect has hunted those who possess paranormal gifts, recruiting the men, and exterminating the women.
