Chapin’s World
Author: J. G. Chapin
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1664191488
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
Chapin’s World is purely a figment of the author’s warped imagination, so please don’t report him to the authorities because there is nothing that can be done. He was born thinking like this. And, it was inevitable that his mind would be unleashed upon an unsuspecting public. Chapin’s World, subtitled A Mid Amid is a book-of-life as seen through the green, ‘mid-life’ eyes of a member of a highly exploited (as of yet, unentitled) minority - redheads! It is a collection of humorous short stories of the author’s early life, family camping-trip shenanigans, vacation pranks and mishaps, and how he grew to be ‘mid’ in America’s Heartland. His light-hearted style allows the reader a chance to experience unpleasant circumstances with humor, and to tag along as he turns the most simple of situations into full-blown calamities. Chapin’s narrative of his childhood reads like a tale by a modern day Samuel Clemens. The stories progress randomly through his life to include ‘mid-- with -- kid.’ Chapin’s World will drag you along with Chapin, his family, and a few ‘less-than role model’ friends into, but not out of ‘mid-life.’ the author is determined to find your funny bone even if he has to use a chainsaw. A Mid Amid contains twenty-seven mildly amusing, yet wildly outrageous tales by the ‘Master of Personal Disaster.’ In case you are unaware of Chapin’s writing style, he has used the formula of mixing equal, half-portions of wit and narrative. Chapin has now become quite distinguished for his ‘half-wit’ humor. But, such is Chapin’s World. If you or a loved one is struggling through the ‘mid-life’ crisis (or if you just have the strange urge to help a confessed liar succeed) then Chapin’s World - A Mid Amid is surely required reading.

The Vanishing American Adult
Author: Ben Sasse
Publisher: St. Martin's Griffin
ISBN: 1250114411
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER In an era of safe spaces, trigger warnings, and an unprecedented election, the country's youth are in crisis. Senator Ben Sasse warns the nation about the existential threat to America's future. Raised by well-meaning but overprotective parents and coddled by well-meaning but misbegotten government programs, America's youth are ill-equipped to survive in our highly-competitive global economy. Many of the coming-of-age rituals that have defined the American experience since the Founding: learning the value of working with your hands, leaving home to start a family, becoming economically self-reliant—are being delayed or skipped altogether. The statistics are daunting: 30% of college students drop out after the first year, and only 4 in 10 graduate. One in three 18-to-34 year-olds live with their parents. From these disparate phenomena: Nebraska Senator Ben Sasse who as president of a Midwestern college observed the trials of this generation up close, sees an existential threat to the American way of life. In The Vanishing American Adult, Sasse diagnoses the causes of a generation that can't grow up and offers a path for raising children to become active and engaged citizens. He identifies core formative experiences that all young people should pursue: hard work to appreciate the benefits of labor, travel to understand deprivation and want, the power of reading, the importance of nurturing your body—and explains how parents can encourage them. Our democracy depends on responsible, contributing adults to function properly—without them America falls prey to populist demagogues. A call to arms, The Vanishing American Adult will ignite a much-needed debate about the link between the way we're raising our children and the future of our country.
