Book Description
Life has little to do with where you start and much to do with how you use your start to add value to it throughout your life. It is said that music soothes the soul. Melodies and harmonies transport us to places we love, hate, treasure, or despise. Everyone's life is set to a rhythm they can eventually control. This life demonstrates a life lived set to varying degrees of musical tone, from the depth of tension to the height of release, changing tempo and keys along the way.Jody Russ's life started in turmoil with the tragic loss of his mother, sister, and cousin before turning six years old. The village of family and friends that surrounded him and his siblings, ushering them through a maze of life-changing stages, is nothing short of miraculous. He succeeded through childhood family separation, varying living environments, spiritual confusion, and enlightenment to navigate a successful military and teaching career and become a husband, father, and grandfather. Finally, he stands on the battlefield against cancer. Woven into his story is a blend of his original songs and poems to highlight his life. Enjoy the music and begin to listen for your own soundtrack.

Book Description
This book began as a learning exercise as the author endeavored to explain to his Russian-speaking students how rhyme and meter were used in the English language. Designed primarily as a reading aid and an educational tool, it's been created with the following ideas in mind: 1) Reading should be a fun experience. 2) It is not necessary to simplify the Bible to make it understandable for young audiences. 3) Pronounceability leads to usability. Children do not naturally have a harsh distinction between hard and easy words. Either a word is familiar or unknown. There's no need to shy away from advanced vocabulary if it is explainable. Vividly illustrated and meticulously crafted in a poetic style, while appealing to young readers, this is the Bible as it has never been rendered before. This first volume covers the entire book of Genesis, from Adam and Eve and the fall of Mankind to the eve of Israel's dramatic Exodus from Egypt.

Book Description
The bear went over the mountain, to see what he could see, hear what he could hear, smell what he could smell, touch what he could touch, and taste what he could taste; what a busy bear! In this beautifully written rendition of a classic children’s song, bestselling author and illustrator Iza Trapani brings to life the seasonal activities of this cuddly bear. The bear sets out at the beginning of spring and finds fun around every corner, such as watching bunnies hop and smelling flowers. When the bear finds something unpleasant, like a smelly skunk or a prickly porcupine, he learns that the five senses have both good and bad traits. But that is all right, because there is always something just as exciting to try next! As winter arrives, the bear goes home to his cave, tired after his adventures. The Bear Went Over the Mountain, in paperback for the first time, teaches children about the five senses and the four seasons, all through a timeless song. It is so much fun, kids will want to go exploring too, just like the bear! Sky Pony Press, with our Good Books, Racehorse and Arcade imprints, is proud to publish a broad range of books for young readers—picture books for small children, chapter books, books for middle grade readers, and novels for young adults.

Book Description
A silly pirate skeleton seeks to put its bones back together in this rhyming romp beneath the waves. Cast a spyglass ’round here while breakers curl and pound here. There’s treasure to be found here — I feel it in my bones! A stormy night at sea has uncovered some long-buried secrets and surprises. Is that the mast of a shipwreck? A faded pirate hat? And what’s that hiding in the sand? A mandible and a clavicle, phalanges and femurs, a tibia and a fibula — could there be a set of bones scattered across the ocean floor? And who might they belong to? A jaunty rhyme takes readers on an underwater scavenger hunt as a comical skeleton tries to put itself back together piece by piece. Make no bones about it: this rollicking read-aloud will have young ones learning anatomy without even realizing it.
