Book Description
This book is uniquely designed to assist you in handwriting, from legible to more stylish and artistic. It's an elegant font to start with, balanced letter structures and natural strokes. Handwriting is like painting, the letter structures are something in your mind before you putting your pen to paper. They are subconsciously formed with the idea you're trying to communicate, the words and phases as part of language. The strokes are the hows in writing, the way resembling how an artist operating brushes. The style of the strokes insinuate your personalities, wild or thoughtful or determined. To practice both structure and stoke, this book utilizes a new and more effective practice strategy: laying dotted-in-hollow-font and dotted-font on the same page spreads (left and right pages side by side) so that you may grasp the letter structure and stroke style from left side of the spread, and then put them in your practice on right side of the spread. ***Please be aware that handwriting is a personal thing, your handwriting is yours. It represents your personality. Just think about handwriting copies are considered as valid evidence in the justice system to identify people. You practice handwriting with this book, learning letter structures and strokes, and eventually forming a writing style resembling your own personality. It sure beyond the font provided in this book, and better. The font in this book simply leads you to your own stylish and artistic handwriting style.

Book Description
This book presents an innovative approach for kids to form an elegant handwriting style subconsciously. With this book, kids read the famous story "How Toys Become Real" and, meanwhile, trace the story word by word. The sequential finger movements activate neural activities involving thinking, language, and memory. Their attention is on the story characters, like the rabbit, skin horse and fairy during practice. Subconsciously, the signals of fine motor movements in the hand pass from fingertips into brain. Gradually, a neat and elegant handwriting style forms. Forming a neat and elegant handwriting style is not the ultimate goal of this book. It is actually a byproduct of beginning writing practice. When kids are asked to, "trace the words like you are writing a story," it leads to a sense of writing a story; a fun and creative activity. It is well known that handwriting practice will improve idea composition and expression. This book enhances this educational approach and will get kids started on writing at early age. Recent studies have shown that children write more words, faster, and express more ideas when writing essays by hand, versus with a keyboard. This book provides a tool for kids who would like and stay ahead of the competition curve.

Book Description
This is the second edition of the published "Left Hand Writing, An Art 101 Book" with modified the Neat font and newly added Dance font and new line-art figures for tracing practices. The modified Neat font has more left-handed friendly letter structures and the Dance font opens children's eyes to creative and artistic thinking. This book is for left-handed children to learn and to practice handwriting. Unlike the traditional ineffective and boring practices of simply tracing letters after letters, this book uses line arts that are much more fun to practice with. The content of this book has letter structures for the fundamentals of writing a letter and emphasizes line art, short stories, numbers and math, and riddles. It's a fun book to work with. The thought process is to first establish the foundation of the letter structures and an aesthetic mindset, and then let children lead themselves to their own legible and artistic writing style. It's well-known that mindset and motor skills determine how a pen or pencil is handled. Given the intuitiveness and creativity of left-handed children, they will gradually grasp and quickly master the pen and pencil through tracing with this book. Tracing requires the precision pen or pencil movements controlled by fingers. Scientists have pointed out that left-handed people have a right mind, meaning the motivation is primarily connected to the right hemisphere of the brain, indicating highly intuitive and creative mind capabilities. Besides, left-handed people tend to process the information faster as per an Australian study showed in 2006. 10% of Americans are left-handed, including Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Zuckerberg, Julia Roberts, Bruce Willis, Oprah Winfrey, Robert De Niro, Albert Einstein, and David Rockefeller, just to name a few. Among the last 16 elected presidents, 5 of them are left-handed, 9 are right-handed, and 2 are ambidextrous. The proportion of left-handed presidents is much higher than the proportion of lefties in the United States. That probably means something, don't you think? Like an unpolished diamond, left-handed children are gifted creators. Training and practice will jump-start their sleeping mind and trigger the unleashing hidden genius. This book is one of the tools will do the trick.

Book Description
A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Book Description
A classic work of American literature that has not stopped changing minds and lives since it burst onto the literary scene, The Things They Carried is a ground-breaking meditation on war, memory, imagination, and the redemptive power of storytelling. The Things They Carried depicts the men of Alpha Company: Jimmy Cross, Henry Dobbins, Rat Kiley, Mitchell Sanders, Norman Bowker, Kiowa, and the character Tim O’Brien, who has survived his tour in Vietnam to become a father and writer at the age of forty-three. Taught everywhere—from high school classrooms to graduate seminars in creative writing—it has become required reading for any American and continues to challenge readers in their perceptions of fact and fiction, war and peace, courage and fear and longing. The Things They Carried won France's prestigious Prix du Meilleur Livre Etranger and the Chicago Tribune Heartland Prize; it was also a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Critics Circle Award.
