"Cass": A True Story of Alcoholism and Its Effect on the Alcoholic and the Family Maxine Cassidy-Watson
I wrote the story “Cass” after my husband, Robert Cassidy, passed away December 23, 1989. “Cass” was a special man to everyone who knew him. The title “Cass” is from his good friend, Charlie Clancy. They had been friends for many years. Charlie called him “Cass” and I thought that special name was for a special friendship, so the title was born. I know this story will help others with problems of alcohol or drugs. The alcoholic is only part of the hurt. There is a family that loves the alcoholic. We were a happy family that loved a lot, so the hurt was a lot. I know without support from family and friends and, most of all, God, my children and I could not have gone through this. My prayer is that anyone reading “Cass” will receive hope. Bob’s favorite saying was, “There is hope as long as there is breath.” Softcover [$14.95] Write Review Read Reviews ISBN: 1-60563-095-0, 48 pages, 6 x 9

...And Sarah Made Three Robbi Gough Atkins
In writing this book I came to realize that everyone has a story to tell. …And Sarah Made Three started for me as a private journal of my childhood memories and of those who touched my life. I only wish it was possible to fit them all in! Upon completion of the story, I felt there was much more to it than a simple autobiography of an unknown author. …And Sarah Made Three is a true, humorous tale of growing up in a simpler, happier time of life and love, family and friends, and is a tale of what is perhaps the most precious treasure we all possess within us-our memories. I hope everyone who reads this story will not only take pleasure in it, but come to a new appreciation of their own lives as well. Enjoy it all! It goes by fast.

1001 Natural Logical Consequences: Specific Solutions to Help Kids Behave Madalyn Skiles
Madalyn Skiles has worked caring for the needs of behaviorally challenged young people since 1977. She and her husband have worked in specialized foster care, developed and owned a residential group home for children with problematic behaviors, and supervised and trained therapeutic foster parents. Madalyn has cared for well over sixty children during those years. She is a teacher for MAPPS and Getting It Right; both nationally accepted trainings that incorporate ways to help children manage their behavior without corporal punishment. Madalyn realized years ago that knowing a better way to handle a situation and practicing it in the heat of a battle are very different things. So the book was an outgrowth of that knowledge. It places at the fingertips of the harried parent consequences that are both for willing and unwilling children. Set up in a recipe format, any parent can look up the problem behavior and instantly have many consequences from which to choose. In this way parents can encourage the correct behavior without engaging in a battle. Softcover [$19.95] Write Review Read Reviews ISBN: 1-4241-5696-3, 238 pages, 6 x 9

200 Reasons I Love You Author Anonymous
For thousands of years, men have memorialized the women they love through books, poems and sonnets. From King Solomon to Shakespeare, men have poured out their passion to the objects of their affection. 200 Reasons I Love You continues this tradition. It is the result of one man’s quest to articulate, in a way that he has not done before, the deep feelings of love and appreciation he has for his wife. This strikingly expressive work is sometimes humorous, sometimes sensual, and always mysterious because of the author’s decision to compose it without his wife’s knowledge, his refusal to tell her about it, and his steadfast belief that when his wife eventually does read it, she will know 200 Reasons I Love You was written for her.

Adoption: An Open, Semi-Open or Closed Practice? Gisela Gasper Fitzgerald
Fitzgerald is both a biological and adoptive mother and in this memoir examines the pros and cons of open, semi-open, and closed adoption practices from the point of view of adoptees, birthmothers, and adoptive parents. The adoption in 1969 of the author’s four-day-old daughter was closed, and Fitzgerald’s family only emerged from the dark woods of secrecy when her daughter’s birthmother and extended family met up with them twenty-nine years later. This wonderful joining of the respective families has enriched everyone’s life, including that of the grandchildren. Today, Fitzgerald is passionately opposed to closed adoptions and advocates the semi-open practice. Softcover [$19.95] Write Review Read Reviews ISBN: 1-59286-913-0, 196 pages, 6 x 9
