A child on the playground. A quick tumble. A trip to the emergency room. Educating without intimidating, and entertaining without underestimating, DareBone's Big Break helps parents and their children navigate this unexpected experience with poetry, great humor, and medical accuracy. Readers join the adventurous and often clumsy DareBone as he endures his first major injury: a broken elbow. With his wise-cracking sidekick, Wag-A-Bone, narrating along the way, DareBone meets many medical heroes, including orthopedic surgeon, Dr. WonderBone, who guides our hero as he journeys through surgery and recovery. DareBone's Big Break educates with entertaining rhyme, in an informative story about a common childhood injury that parents and children will reach for time and again. DareBone's Big Break is the first of several books from Gleeson Rebello, MD and Jamie Harisiades that will combine entertaining rhyme and accurate medical information aimed at educating readers and parents on common childhood conditions like allergy, autism, asthma, and obesity.
It's difficult to pretend you love someone when you don't. It's even harder to pretend you don't love someone when you do. To whom do we belong? To our spouses or to each other? My husband, the love of my life, met me when we were married to other people. Unforeseen circumstances gave us the chance to receive and absorb real love. This memoir is the story of our romance, told in letters. Read how we came to realize we were just existing in our respective marriages and became reluctant lovers. Travel with us through our heart-wrenching journey ... the immeasurable pain, anger, sorrow and betrayal of our first marriage vows, the lives we were responsible for tearing apart, and the fear of losing it all. In spite of everything, we lived our happily ever after for 25 years ... and then in a dance between heaven and earth, proving that love lives on forever. About the Author: Anita A.

All that glitters isn't necessarily gold. For the young dentist Brighton Dunn and his wife Gina, that fact could become a mixed blessing. Trying to build his practice and their dream home in a virgin desert development, they and their new neighbors find that life sometimes can be more of a nightmare than a dream. Stalked by a reclusive female hermit and threatened by the greed of unknown intruders, the finding of precious metals beneath the desert floor of their gated community ultimately thrusts these Home Owner's Association members into the limelight of national interest. It is a melting pot of neighbors including: Rhonda Tucker, Hollywood's hottest rockabilly icon; Roy the explorer, friend and protector of everyone; Charley, the ambitious attorney--now torn between friends and firm; Three expatriate families and the master developer of Hidden Canyon, Dean Shutter. This eclectic group attempts to unite in the pursuit of riches beyond their wildest dreams, only to find much more excitement than they ever expected. Bound by the rules and regulations of the neighborhood H.O.A., the tightly-held secret of strange rare metals beneath their feet is too good of a secret to keep to themselves. Should they preserve the environment or live in regal splendor? Can they have the best of both, or will outsiders claim their share? Balancing potential wealth with respect for the beauty and sanctity of the desert pushes the Hidden Canyon residents to the edge of their mental and physical extremes.
