Book Description
The original 245 page book was written May 1986, along with the songs, from the creative mind of a young writer, Michele' Williams. The storyline was written before many African-American authors of today were given the opportunity to write or publish many of their literary works. The author has decided to keep the original 1986 setting and written content, for the reading of those who are not afraid to read into the world, just as it really is. Much of the material and content is virtually the same. Yet it is enhanced with the obedience and perfectly right timing, that has been allowed by God. Why? To help many other young souls that are in this same walk receive deliverance. The characters: Meet Shelley, a young black female who is going through a divorce from her husband that she married for mere convenience and NOT love. She then met and was consumed by a young man, who literally mastered the art of being a SMOOTH TALKER: Meet Franklin. The thought of being young, naïve, manipulated and controlled by a man never crossed her mind, because she always had her guard up. But his ways were smooth, calculating and charming, which regretfully stole her heart and soul. In 2008, the award-winning Inspirational Gospel Stage Play - SMOOTH TALKER (He's Good At What He Does) portrays Shelley as a free-spirited female, who was supported by a whole cast of close, funny and wise friends who were there to help her get through this unbelievable relationship phase, including her soon-to-be ex-husband, CJ. With a twist of many fates, she endured much, to find the most rewarding end, one could have ever imagined. You too, will be surprised with the ending in the book, play, audio cd and film, as the storyline tells of what it is to be trapped in a relationship filled with love, lying and deceit! Such a riveting novel!!

Book Description
Students in grades 1 through 7 who have a fluency disorder will be intrigued by this new workbook that uses a three-pronged approach to working on and coping with stuttering -- focusing on cognition, emotion, and behavior. An engaging storyline and artwork lead children through the workbook as they follow the adventures of school-age children on a camping trip. Using the same exercises the campers are doing, the therapist's clients are encouraged to keep practicing and looking for solutions to their fluency disorder. This product is particularly helpful for students who have not yet found success in therapy because it teaches them that not all methods work for each individual. By incorporating the emotional aspect of fluency disorders into the workbook, children are less likely to become discouraged. The manual uses language children understand and relate to, helping them to eventually become their own clinicians.

Smooth Talker
Author: Steve Jackson
Publisher: WildBlue Press
ISBN: 1942266448
Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
As seen on Investigation Discovery’s Epic Mysteries series—from the New York Times bestselling author who “writes with muscle and heart” (Gregg Olsen, #1 New York Times bestselling author). One morning in July 1974, Anita Andrews, the owner and bartender at Fagiani’s Cocktail Lounge in Napa, California, was found dead in her bar—raped, beaten, and stabbed to death in a bloody frenzy. Meanwhile a month after Anita’s murder, young Michele Wallace, was driving down a road in the mountains near Crested Butte, Colorado, when she gave two stranded motorists, including a man named Roy, a ride. She was never seen alive again. Fourteen years later, Charlotte Sauerwin, engaged to be married, met a smooth-talking man at a Laundromat in Livingston Parish, Louisiana. The next evening, her body was found in the woods; she’d been raped, tortured, and her throat slashed. The three murders would remain unsolved, eating at the hearts, minds and lives of the women’s families, friends and communities. Then in the early 1990s, a rookie Gunnison County sheriff’s investigator named Kathy Young began looking into the Wallace case and identified a suspect named Roy Melanson, a serial rapist from Texas. It would lead her and other investigators looking into murders and rapes in other states to a serial killer who struck again and again with seeming impunity. Smooth Talker is the story of Melanson, his depredations, and the intrepid police work that went into bringing him to justice not just in Colorado, but California and Louisiana. “Steve Jackson is one of the greats in the true crime author world.”—C.L. Swinney, bestselling author of The Peninsula Serial Killer

Code Talker
Author: Chester Nez
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1101552123
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
The first and only memoir by one of the original Navajo code talkers of WWII. His name wasn’t Chester Nez. That was the English name he was assigned in kindergarten. And in boarding school at Fort Defiance, he was punished for speaking his native language, as the teachers sought to rid him of his culture and traditions. But discrimination didn’t stop Chester from answering the call to defend his country after Pearl Harbor, for the Navajo have always been warriors, and his upbringing on a New Mexico reservation gave him the strength—both physical and mental—to excel as a marine. During World War II, the Japanese had managed to crack every code the United States used. But when the Marines turned to its Navajo recruits to develop and implement a secret military language, they created the only unbroken code in modern warfare—and helped assure victory for the United States over Japan in the South Pacific. INCLUDES THE ACTUAL NAVAJO CODE AND RARE PICTURES
