A bit irreverent yet, kind and truthful, this book is for substitutes, teachers, and administrators. It describes the work-life of an experienced substitute teacher through the lenses of ""best practices."" It begins with the need for education: Axiom (1) ""Teaching is a prerequisite for human evolution"" to Axiom (11) ""Do not take anything personally"", even when the students say you are ""the best sub they ever had."" For grades K-12, this book helps with classroom management techniques to keeping track of multiple assignments. All you need is a tolerance for ambiguity (everyday is different), a healthy lunch, and perhaps ear plugs for rainy day recesses. Author: Bill Buxton (MA, MBA, TESOL) has been a ""mostly friendly"" substitute for about five years for grades four through twelve in various socioeconomic districts. He believes the primary goal of a substitute teacher is to support the professional teacher by following the sub plans, with some discretion, of course.

Although Sinclair had written very critically of organized religion in his book The Profits of Religion, in this novel he takes a more human approach to the story of Christ. Of course, the Christ character is repulsed by the show of wealth he finds in 1920s California culture, which ultimately contributes to his leaving. In that sense, They Call Me Carpenter fits well into the canon of Upton Sinclair.

Every puppy hopes for a loving family and a loyal master, but not all dogs are so lucky. Some dogs are destined to come from the wrong side of the tracks, regardless of how they started out. Jack was such a dog. He was placed into a dysfunctional family dominated by an abusive teenager. Jack remained locked in his fenceless prison for more than half his life until his master decided he was no longer wanted. Abandoned on an isolated island, Jack figured out how to survive. He created a new life for himself—a life far different from what he had hoped for. Jack endured hunger, thirst, heat, rain, mosquitoes, and the wrath of other animals. When he became the victim of a vicious attack, he struggled for every breath, hoping to be saved before it was too late. Rescued by strangers, Jack gets a second chance. He finds his way to a forever home, to a family struggling with grief at the loss of their beloved dog. Technically, Jack is a rescue dog, but in truth, he provides a lifeline to his adopted family as much as they pulled him out of his own dire circumstances. Jack’s life is a story of survival and triumph, of new beginnings and redemption. Now They Call Me Jack is a tenderly written novel inspired on true events. Jack tells his own story with poignant truthfulness and good humor.

All she needed was her picture in the paper. So how did she end up fake-engaged to the Sexiest Man Alive? Sijan Cates, Hollywood’s biggest star and favorite bad boy, is ordered by his movie studio to stay out of the tabloids. No problem. He heads back to his small, sleepy hometown of Climax, NC, to spend time with his brothers and lie low. It should have been a great plan. Avery Danford, desperate to track down her estranged family to help her sister, squeezes into a dress two sizes too small and photobombs the biggest movie star in the world. While posing as his #1 fan. All to catch her tabloid-loving mother’s attention. It’s a crazy-pants plan. Made crazier by an amazing kiss--caught by the paparazzi. Aaaand... that's how Sijan and Avery end up *fake-engaged*. The new plan is to quietly "break up" when the paparazzi loses interest. A plan that should work... If Sijan doesn’t feel a burning need to give Avery a starring role in his personal life. For real. If Avery doesn’t fall hard and fast and into bed with last year’s World’s Sexiest Man. But you know what they say… The best-laid plans of Hollywood stars and fake fans oft go astray. Which is to say explode in their faces. Could This Be Love is a full-length fun small-town enemies-to-lovers romantic comedy featuring a hot celebrity, a desperate woman, a fake fiancé, a town grapevine working overtime, secrets, the sorriest-looking pair of bald dogs, and sweet sexy times. No cheating. No cliffhanger. A romance with heat, humor, heart and a sigh-worthy HEA.
