Let's Get This Straight
Author: Tina Fakhrid-Deen
Publisher: Seal Press
ISBN: 1580053823
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
Let's Get This Straight reaches out to young people with one or more gay, lesbian, bi, or trans parents to provide them with the tools to combat homophobia, take pride in their alternative family structures, and speak out against injustice. This short but thorough book profiles forty-five diverse youth and young adults, all of whom voice their opinions and provide advice for other youth living in LGBTQ households. Let's Get This Straight also includes probing questions, fun activities, engaging quizzes, and reflective journal sections for youth to share their feelings and experiences about having a gay parent. By reading this book, readers will learn how to: identify and overcome barriers to having a gay parent; address discrimination and heterosexism; build a strong self-esteem and sense of belonging; communicate effectively with their parents and individuals outside of the LGBTQ community; access resources and support for their families; respond effectively when challenged about being in a sexual minority family; and reduce the isolation, fear, shame, and confusion that can be associated with having gay parents. As the media brings ever-increasing exposure to gay-headed households, this book is more important than ever. Let's Get This Straight is the perfect blend of wit, sharing of experiences, and "expert" advice that children with LGBTQ parents need to become more self-aware and affirming, and to maintain healthy relationships with their parents.

I'd Fight the Devil
Author: John Faller
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1477149538
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 263
Book Description
I'd Fight the Devil is a gay romance story about two men who are from two different worlds. One is wealthy, one is not. One is from a very religious family, one is not. One is very sure of himself, one is quite insecure. They meet on a gay cruise, fall in love, and plan to move in together but almost immediately problems arise, including a meeting with Brett, Tim's former lover, who accuses Doug of having an affair with someone else. Another problem arises when Doug has to fly to his home town because of a death in the family and finally has to confront his mother to tell her that he plans to live with Tim which, of course, she does not understand. At last things seem to be going pretty well for the two lovers. However, Doug receives a phone call that Tim has been in a bad accident and may not survive. Doug has fought the devil before, in the form of Brett, but now he faces the horrible prospect that the devil may take Tim from him. Maybe Doug's mother was right when she said that sometimes the thing you love the most is taken away from you just so you can grow as a person. What a horrible thought!

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
Author: The Gang
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 006222512X
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 279
Book Description
Charlie, Mac, Dennis, Sweet Dee, and Frank attempt their most ill-conceived, get-rich-quick scheme yet: publishing a “self-help book.” The Gang may have finally found their golden ticket. Left alone to close down Paddy’s Pub one night, Charlie Kelly inadvertently scored himself, and his friends, the opportunity of a lifetime—a book deal with a real publishing company, real advance money, and a real(ly confused) editor. While his actual ability to read and write remains unclear, Charlie sealed the deal with some off-the-cuff commentary on bird law and the nuances of killing rats (and maybe with the help of some glue fumes in the basement with an unstable editor on a bender). While The Gang is stunned by the news, and the legally binding, irrevocable contract left on the bar, they are also ready to rise to the task and become millionaires—and of course, help Charlie actually write the book. In their own inimitable voices, Charlie, Mac, Dennis, Sweet Dee, and Frank weigh in on important topics like Relationships, Financial Success and Career, Fashion and Personal Grooming, Health and Diet, and Survival Skills, providing insane advice, tips, tricks, and recipes (Rum Ham anyone?) as only they can. Fans of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia rejoice and welcome the most influential work in the history of the written word (or at least since the script for The Nightman Cometh): The 7 Secrets of Awakening the Highly Effective Four-Hour Giant, Today.
