Book Description
In An Incredible Boy and a Remarkable Man, author Ronald Stepp tells for the first time the life story of his older brother, Shelby Ray Stepp. It begins with Shelby's tragic physical condition at birth--he had no mouth, he had no hands, he had no feet, and his eyes were crossed. The reader will follow the immediate reaction of the doctor who delivered the baby and of his parents, especially his mother, and their responses after a time of consultation and deliberation. Then, the reader will follow along chronologically with the miraculous events that took place that negated euthanasia, provided a pseudo-mouth for feeding but discovered a one-inch tongue, which precluded speech and impaired eating, equipped a Godly mother to give continuous attentive care, and the help of an extended family (as effective as a platoon of US Special Forces). The reader of An Incredible Boy and a Remarkable Man will learn how God used a mother's love and care to raise a child who at birth was more crippled than any newborn on record who lived to adulthood. Also, the reader will become excited about what the "little boy that could" would achieve in the world of public school and the music world with the awesome teaching of a Christian special education teacher. As an adult, Shelby's speech impairment became his biggest handicap. It prevented him from getting good-paying employment. But the reader will learn how a negative situation became a significant part of his inspirational life. Just as all of those of all ages who knew Shelby were inspired by his life, the reader who reads An Incredible Boy and a Remarkable Man from cover to cover will surely be inspired by how Shelby overcame obstacles in life from his early childhood to late adulthood with the grace of God.

Book Description
THE INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “Sparkling with mystery, humor and the uncanny, this is a fun read. But beneath its effervescent tone, more complex themes are at play.” —San Francisco Chronicle In his wildly entertaining debut novel, Hank Green—cocreator of Crash Course, Vlogbrothers, and SciShow—spins a sweeping, cinematic tale about a young woman who becomes an overnight celebrity before realizing she's part of something bigger, and stranger, than anyone could have possibly imagined. The Carls just appeared. Roaming through New York City at three a.m., twenty-three-year-old April May stumbles across a giant sculpture. Delighted by its appearance and craftsmanship—like a ten-foot-tall Transformer wearing a suit of samurai armor—April and her best friend, Andy, make a video with it, which Andy uploads to YouTube. The next day, April wakes up to a viral video and a new life. News quickly spreads that there are Carls in dozens of cities around the world—from Beijing to Buenos Aires—and April, as their first documentarian, finds herself at the center of an intense international media spotlight. Seizing the opportunity to make her mark on the world, April now has to deal with the consequences her new particular brand of fame has on her relationships, her safety, and her own identity. And all eyes are on April to figure out not just what the Carls are, but what they want from us. Compulsively entertaining and powerfully relevant, An Absolutely Remarkable Thing grapples with big themes, including how the social internet is changing fame, rhetoric, and radicalization; how our culture deals with fear and uncertainty; and how vilification and adoration spring for the same dehumanization that follows a life in the public eye. The beginning of an exciting fiction career, An Absolutely Remarkable Thing is a bold and insightful novel of now.

A New York Times Editors' Choice; A Southern Living Best Book of 2018; An Amazon Editors' Best Book of 2018; A Refinery29 Best Book of 2018; A New York Post Most Unforgettable Book of 2018 "Fascinating." —Vogue “This is the story of a daughter and her mother. It’s also a memoir, a love story, and a tale of high-flying stunts . . . An adventure toward and through fear.” —Southern Living Tessa Fontaine’s astonishing memoir of pushing past fear, The Electric Woman, follows the author on a life-affirming journey of loss and self-discovery—through her time on the road with the last traveling American sideshow and her relationship with an adventurous, spirited mother. Turns out, one lesson applies to living through illness, keeping the show on the road, letting go of the person you love most, and eating fire: The trick is there is no trick. You eat fire by eating fire. Two journeys—a daughter’s and a mother’s—bear witness to this lesson in The Electric Woman. For three years Tessa Fontaine lived in a constant state of emergency as her mother battled stroke after stroke. But hospitals, wheelchairs, and loss of language couldn’t hold back such a woman; she and her husband would see Italy together, come what may. Thus Fontaine became free to follow her own piper, a literal giant inviting her to “come play” in the World of Wonders, America’s last traveling sideshow. How could she resist? Transformed into an escape artist, a snake charmer, and a high-voltage Electra, Fontaine witnessed the marvels of carnival life: intense camaraderie and heartbreak, the guilty thrill of hard-earned cash exchanged for a peek into the impossible, and, most marvelous of all, the stories carnival folks tell about themselves. Through these, Fontaine trained her body to ignore fear and learned how to keep her heart open in the face of loss. A story for anyone who has ever imagined running away with the circus, wanted to be someone else, or wanted a loved one to live forever, The Electric Woman is ultimately about death-defying acts of all kinds, especially that ever constant: good old-fashioned unconditional love.

Book Description
Grow up. Be a man. We've all heard that before, and we often get defensive when we hear it. And as modern men we often live our lives on the defensive - struggling in relationships, on the job and often feeling alone to figure it out ourselves. In the pages of this book, Owen Marcus leads us along an enlightening path toward the authentic self, one that embraces and respects gender and masculinity. Marcus reveals that men aren't immature or broken; they just need clarity, purpose, connection and the support of other men. Grow Up takes you through 9 stages of growing up where you will discover: Why professional success alone does not fulfill What may be missing and how to find it How we inadvertently self-sabotage and how to stop How to honor and attract women as your authentic self How to earn and maintain the respect of your peers How understanding your own Masculine Emotional Intelligence will lead you to a happier, more fulfilling life Owen Marcus has spent years studying and developing effective learning systems for men. Grow Up is the first time the lessons of his group trainings, lectures, seminars, and personal experience have been compiled into a single manuscript. Grow Up is not a "self-help book"; it's a playbook on how to live your own life. Imagine a life where you can dream, love, create and live in the moment with an ease you never thought possible. Take this book home, and watch the unfolding of the remarkable man in you.

Book Description
The Hummingbird Theory is a journey into the heart of the Cumberland Mountains in a region of Virginia known to the world as Appalachia. The enormous natural beauty of the Cumberlands is woven into each venue throughout The Hummingbird Theory; however, it is the colorful cast of characters that give glimpses into the cultural diversity of this unique region. The characters bring to life the close-knit mountain communities that share pride in their heritage, and they provide a look into the fascinating history of an area that once thrived because of rich deposits of coal. The Hummingbird Theory is much more than a story of life in a small mountain town, it is a story about the choices we make in life and the paths those choices set us on. It explores the spiritual nature of our human experience and the spiritual energy that defines who we are. As the story weaves its way through the small mountain community of Crayton’s Crossing, there are mysteries to be solved and messages to be gleaned from the lives of the unlikely band of homegrown characters. One such message is for those living life according to The Hummingbird Theory.
