Book Description
"Unforgettable...I read this book a number of years ago and just can't get it out of my mind...The story of how these twins...grow up and become women is fascinating...if you have a super curious mind and enjoy a story quite odd, you will LOVE this book." 5 stars Reader's Review (hardcover edition) from Amazon.com "I found myself laughing out loud at some of the incidents, and also found it very interesting. Once I started reading it I couldn't put it down. I have loaned it to all of my friends who like to read, and they also found the book a very good read. Buy it! You won't be sorry." 5 stars Reader's Review (hardcover edition) from Amazon.com "The novel lives up to the wit of its premise... hilarious situations...Yet there's a touching story here too...an entirely recognizable sense of how hard it often is to live in a world with other people." Cosmopolitan Magazine "...if you just want a satisfying, mind-bending reading experience, you will find what you are looking for in She and I..." Mindi Dickstein, St. Petersburg (Florida) Times "The questions that She and I make us ask are the endlessly fascinating ones...where is the real freakishness? In being a Jew? A woman? An intellectual? In not being pretty? In being desperately in love? Or is it really in being tied by a band of flesh to The Other, to the worst...nightmare any of us have?" Amy Wallace, Los Angeles Times Sunday Book Review "Through Lottman's masterful handling of her material, suspense is maintained...to the last page." Barbara Rich, Women's Review of Books "...an extraordinary book. I read it months ago and the impression stayed with me so long that I've decided I must read it again and recommend it to all my friends (many of whom are writers, as I am)." Dale Rhonda Burg, by unsolicited postcard to the author "I was in stitches reading She and I. The use of the title is a howl in itself. There are so many funny scenes-the baseball game-all that sorority stuff that rings so true to an old 'sister.' The absurdity of the situation heightens, if anything, the ring of authenticity...a great read." Michele Lapautre, literary agent, Paris, France
The Little White Schoolhouse
Author : Ellis F. Hartford
Publisher : University Press of Kentucky

ISBN : 0813184231
Book Description
Few institutions have been held in such fond regard and recalled in such nostalgic terms as the little red schoolhouse. It ranks with the old oaken bucket, the little brown church in the vale, and the pictures of the old home place that millions of people have carried in that "inward eye" mentioned by Wordsworth on that long-past spring day. But the Kentucky common schoolhouses were not painted red as were those of New England; they were mostly white, if not of unpainted log construction. It was not the simple little boxlike schoolhouse itself that earned all that fond affection. What happened on the way to and from school, on the playground, and within the school walls are all treasured in the memory banks of former pupils in much the same manner as families recall their happy evenings around the fireside or those trips to grandmother's house for Thanksgiving. But the little white schoolhouse is gone, along with the simple agrarian way of life that characterized the people of the neighborhood to which it belonged. To ensure that this era of education is not forgotten Ellis F. Hartford has presented the history of one-room schoolhouses in the Commonwealth, showing what has been lost in the passing of this institution of the values that best characterized its time and place. Americans might well seek some of the same strengths and values in their diverse communities that were enjoyed by our ancestors of the old rural-agrarian way of life. We might also strive to obtain schools that fit and belong to their respective communities as did the little white schoolhouse.

Book Description
A few years ago, I went back to my home town to attend my 60-year high school class reunion. The day after the festivities, I took my camera in hand, got in my car, and spent most of the day on a sentimental journey. I drove around the town, remembering what it had been like when I was a boy growing up there many, many years ago. The stories in this book will tell you about the schools and churches I attended, the places where members of my family worked, and places where my friends and I played. You will enjoy the sounds, the smels and the social events of a vibrant community. You will visit the playgrounds and parks and go to picnics and parades. You will go swimming, skating and sliding, and hear about how we kids had fun back then. You will learn about chairs and cheese and other things that were important to the life of our town. My first Sheboygan book was about the people who were an important part of my like when I was a boy; this book is about how those people lived, worked and played. It was a different world back then...one we sometimes wish we could live over again. Welcome back to Sheboygan!

Sugar-Free Religion
Author : Denny C. Wise
Publisher : Trafford Publishing
Page : 277 pages
File Size : 38,60 MB
Release : 2014-06-26
Category : Biography & Autobiography
ISBN : 1490738878
Book Description
Sugar-Free Religion is part biographical, part religious instruction and part just a fun read. Denny believed we are called to be Christian change agents. As such, he believed we must be willing to relate not only to the beautiful people of this world, but to the not so beautiful, as well. We are called to give hope to the hopeless, and love to the unlovely. That is what Jesus did, and that is what he calls us to do. In short, the whole Gospel is not about following the right rules. It is about following Jesus and loving your neighbor. It is not about believing the right stuff; it is about personal life-changing "relationships." Relational Theology was Denny's entire ministry. It is what he taught and how he lived. So if you really want to expand your consciousness and find your true authentic self, then why not try looking at every person you meet as a special gift from God? Every stranger is a wonderful opportunity for you to experience new joy, self-fulfillment and self-discovery. So reach out and touch someone! Comfort a friend who is hurting. Give hugs to everyone. Be kind to a lonely child. Visit the aged in nursing homes. Take flowers to someone who is sick. Bring cheer to someone who is dying. Give comfort to someone in grief. Gladly give yourself away. That is how you find your life, by losing it! Most of the stories and examples in the book come from first-hand experience. From Wilmington to Burlington and from Laurinburg to Oxford, he became a part of the lives of the parishioners he was sent to serve. So get ready to have your heart "strangely warmed" as you read the pages of his book. He will knock the sugar coating, the marshmallow fluffiness and even the sugar sprinkles from your faith. Open your heart and your mind for a new experience. Don't worry if a few things fall to the wayside. That's OK, because from there you can begin to build your own bright, shiny faith---free of the stickiness. Experience now the joy of living a life without the "ick." ---Judy Wise
