Book Description
Reassuring advice for every day of the year From an esteemed husband-and-wife team comes a book of daily advice and insight. In dated entries meant to be read one per day, the Spinellis open with a brief quote from children’s literature, write a paragraph of lively advice inspired by that quote, and end with a “Today I will . . .” promise. The entries range from the broad (self-esteem, the environment, gratitude, and openmindedness) to the simple and specific (Today I will call a grandparent . . . smile at a new kid . . . take a walk . . . and send a snail-mail letter.). With wide appeal to fans of both children’s literature and advice books, this cozy page-a-day volume (with black-and-white spot art) offers inspiring quotes, gentle guidance, and 366 “Today I will . . .” promises to thoughtful readers everywhere.

Book Description
Many people are unaware of how influential Mormons have been on American popular culture. This book parts the curtain and looks behind the scenes at the little-known but important influence Mormons have had on popular culture in the United States and beyond. Mormons and Popular Culture: The Global Influence of an American Phenomenon provides an unprecedented, comprehensive treatment of Mormons and popular culture. Authored by a Mormon studies librarian and author of numerous writings regarding Mormon folklore, culture, and history, this book provides students, scholars, and interested readers with an introduction and wide-ranging overview of the topic that can serve as a key reference book on the topic. The work contains fascinating coverage on the most influential Mormon actors, musicians, fashion designers, writers, artists, media personalities, and athletes. Some topics—such as the Mormon influence at Disney, and how Mormon inventors have assisted in transforming American popular culture through the inventions of television, stereophonic sound, video games, and computer-generated animation—represent largely unknown information. The broad overview of Mormons and American popular culture offered can be used as a launching pad for further investigation; researchers will find the references within the book's well-documented chapters helpful.

Book Description
This book is a work of love by a very loving person who is providing several Bible references and explaining you must put on the whole armor of God. Also, it is a work of love for her fellow man and woman; it tells God's love and direction in life and various subjects which are very controversial, being absolutely honest and forthright and hoping to keep the subject grounded with the Word of God. Bottom line: how we survive the happenings of things to us in life is by always keeping God's word for our direction in life. This book is also about the natural order of judgment and how women and men should respect the order of living of their lives as God intended them as to natural order. God always clears the way for us, and in general, this book has a lot of direction from our heavenly Father and contains miracles and blessings from God. It's about love and prayer to God. Also, this book explains how to pray to God, our Father in heaven. It explains how our souls were created before the foundation of the earth. This book speaks of heaven and the author's opinion of some of heaven; it also contains the beauty of Christianity. May the Holy Spirit swoop down on you like a great eagle and reach you within your soul when you read this book.

Book Description
Leila was a young mother. A vibrant, passionate, and beautiful woman, she enjoyed a full, busy life and adored her young daughter. But slowly, her physical health declined. At first ignored and then misdiagnosed by medical professionals, she found herself on a debilitating journey toward increasing pain and worsening illness. Through everything, from cruel and callous caregivers to miraculous angels who saved her life multiple times, from spending the last year of her life being moved from one hospital to another, she never gave up her desire to be a loving mother to her daughter. She spent as much of her energy and remaining lifetime providing her little girl a strong, nurturing base from which to grow and live her own life. In The Whole Wide World, author Robin Amiri offers a true story of her daughter to help those who find themselves in similar circumstances, battling a serious and debilitating illness and the bureaucracy and red tape of the medical field, insurance industry, and governmental assistance. It’s an exhortation to anyone in this situation to advocate on their own behalf, and on behalf of loved ones. It’s a recommendation to face the truth of medical realities while also bringing love and hopefulness into those realities. This biography is about love, commitment, honesty, and truth. About recognizing what’s most important. And about hope, loss, grief, devotion and, ultimately, life.
