Book Description
Whatever this place was, it separated me from my friends. The best way to describe my dilemma was to imagine standing on a ledge. There was a grizzly bear in front of me and an abyss behind. There was no denying the situation. All my buddies were behind the bear shouting incoherently, and they couldn't do anything to help. I had to decide whether to take on the bear or believe the strange voice in my head that said, 'Go ahead. Jump. It'll be all right.' So that's what I did: jump! Whether it made me unpopular or not, I would take the risk and see where I landed. Do you feel like an outsider? Does it seem like everything you do is wrong? Sometimes it's like trouble is lurking in every corner, and it's so hard to not make a mistake. In Where Are You Going, Larry faces his own troubles. His band of friends, the Midnight Bike Marauders, keeps disobeying the rules. Susie, the neighborhood's know-it-all tattletale, keeps making Larry lose his temper. And the rival baseball team may steal the big win of the summer. Through all of this, Larry begins to learn more about God and the Bible. Will Larry overcome his problems? Can he learn who will always be there to help him? Larry Bachman weaves the everyday trials of peer pressure, choice, and accountability into Bible-based applications that will help kids with their decision making. From the lessons he learned from his parents and grandmother, Larry is able to show kids that they are not alone in their situations; and there is no experience that God cannot handle.

Book Description
Seeking Center, A collection of Poems is a mandala of one writer's consciousness. Informed by a love of art, nature and a vivid dream life, Joan Gelfand's first poetry collection is a deciphering of the mysterious signs encountered on the road of life. The collection is in four sections. In "Museum Pieces" we are taken into a world where the visual arts are read not for technical ability but for overall effect and meaning. "Music/Dream Series" delights the imagination with a series of dreams about music and love. "Heritage" explores family ties and inter-generational connections. In the final section, "In the World," Joan shares real world experiences born of exotic travels and the simple adventures of daily living in a voice that is both accessible and inspiring."Joan Gelfand's poems are simultaneously accessible and complex a rare combination." They are the record of a consciousness which remains alive to its own struggles and contradictions and which seeks to recreate the author's deep Jewish heritage: "a music of Diaspora, a music of wandering, a music of passion and yearning," yet also, "a music of joy." ("The Rider")."That these edgy poems avoid sentimentality is a testimony not only to Ms. Gelfand's 'metronomic irregularity' ("Two Poems for Eva Hesse") her insistence that meaning is primary but to the sharp, jagged, always intelligent quality of her awareness: 'One hand, one fragment, one piece of nothing,/Taking the hand of the other, and leading.' ("Collage Poem.") Jack Foley, poet/author (Books include: "Some Songs by Georges Brassens," "O Powerful Western Star," "New Poetry from California: Dead/Requiem.") Mr. Foley is the host of a weekly radio program, "Cover to Cover/World Literature" aired on KPFA."An amazing collection! A rare opportunity to gaze into the poet's soul through the window of her work."Joan Reinhardt Reiss, Environmental Health Advocate"Exuberance, a true emotional honesty and a light touch with humor kept me reading Ms. Gelfand's poems. The energetic spirit of the poems give swing, and swirl to the form." Zoketsu Norman Fischer, poet/author/teacher, and former Abbott of the San Francisco Zen Center. Mr. Fischer's books include "Jerusalem Moonlight," "Taking our Places," and "the Psalms" founder "Everyday Zen Meditation Center.""Ms. Gelfand's universe is wide, encompassing the parallel worlds of dreams and life lived in a fast-changing world. With a poet's eye and a seeker's intention, Gelfand teases out the sacred, the beauty, and the humor in her experience as a dreamer, an artist, a mother."Dr. Debra Condren, Ph.D., Founder: Women's Business Alliance, President, Manhattan Business Coaching, author, "Naked Ambition."

Book Description
Carrying baggage you don't need? When I was in college, I figured my life would come together around graduation. I’d meet a guy, have a beautiful wedding, and we'd buy a nice little house—not necessarily with a picket fence, but with whatever kind of fence we wanted. Whatever we decided, I would be happy. When I got out of college and my life didn’t look like that, I floundered, trying to get the life I had always dreamed of through career, travel, and relationships. But none of them satisfied me as I hoped. Like many twentysomethings, I tried to discover the life of my dreams, but instead I just kept accumulating baggage—school loans, electronics I couldn’t afford, hurt from broken relationships, and unmet expectations for what life was “supposed to be” like. Just when I had given up all hope of finding the “life I’d always dreamed about,” I decided to take a trip to all fifty states . . . because when you go on a trip, you can’t take your baggage. What I found was that “packing light” wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be. This is the story of my trip and learning to live life with less baggage.
