Hardback. Condition: Good. From a pioneer of modern U.S. Hispanic literature, and the New York Times bestselling author of Crazy Loco Love and Rain of Gold, comes a gripping, coming-of-age tale that exposes the intensity and sheer will of one brave young immigrant who crosses the Mexican border. Roberto Garcia is only seventeen, but he already has big dreams of making his fortune, building a family, and gaining the respect of his community. With ambition to burn and a passion to prove his manhood, Roberto takes the dangerous journey north, crossing the Mexican border to pick fruit in the golden fields of California. It is said that a good man can make more money there in a week than in an entire year in the mountains of Michoac n, his home. With dreams that overshadow harsh realities, Roberto is unprepared for the jammed boxcars and bolted trucks that carry undervalued migrant workers through the searing desert to long days of harsh labor. Raw, powerful, poetic, and heartbreaking, Macho brings to life the brutality of migrant labor, Cesar Chavez's efforts to unionize workers, and a vivid portrayal of the immigrant experience through the eyes of a brave young man who bids goodbye to everything he knows to follow his dreams. …

Paperback. Condition: Good. We tend to think of Christmas as a day-December 25-that is preceded by a season of commercials, sales, shopping, rushing, hurry, frustration, spending money, standing in lines, worrying, cooking, wrapping, more shopping, spending more money, going in debt, and lots more frustration. But it doesn't have to be this way. In the traditional church calendar Christmas Day was preceded by the season of Advent. This was a time of spiritual preparation, a time of getting ready for the Savior's birth. Perhaps we would do ourselves a favor to once again observe Advent as a time of anticipation and preparation for Christmas, and then have a time of more relaxed merriment afterwards. Want to give it a try? This book offers a series of meditations for Advent. Within these pages you will be able to enjoy the time leading up to Christmas as a period of introspection, anticipation, and joy. Here you will meet saints both ancient and modern, and learn lessons from their lives. You will be guided in how to slow down, learn to pause, and discover how to wait. You will be able to restore spirituality (and sanity) to the weeks before Christmas. And you can prepare yourself to truly rejoice that the Savior has come. We hereby invite you to join in The Journey to Christmas.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Ever been curious, frightened, or intimidated about planning your financial future? No matter what age you are, how much you earn, or where you are in life, you will find that you are not alone once you've read The Kitchen Table Financial Plan. Author Victor Levy gives us a down-to-earth, reassuring, and authoritative window into the world of personal financial planning. At the core of the book is his genuine belief that every financial plan is an honest, living document, and as such, should be worked out comfortably in the heart of the home--at the kitchen table. He shows us just how a plan is done, and how--with the right kind of planner--we'll never need to feel alone as we take on our financial future. Levy's book will show you how individuals can gain control of their financial lives by employing the services of a financial planning team--and what the process of planning can look like. Levy underscores the empathetic, professional, and highly supportive nature of the ideal planner. He obviously loves his topic and is clearly someone whose vocation is in planning and helping others. Through the story of a fictional dentist and his relatable extended family, the author painlessly introduces us to official forms, agendas, memoranda, and other documents that in any other setting might seem overwhelming. But the progress of the family as they work toward their financial freedom simultaneously provides us with an easy-to-understand lesson on attaining that same confidence and peace of mind. Read The Kitchen Table Financial Plan and you'll sleep well knowing that help with planning can be within your reach.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This book is both introduction and instruction, comment and cure. In spite of the efforts of mental health professionals, suicide remains a rising tide ending countless lives prematurely. With this book Stanley hopes to turn that tide by providing insight into the mindset of the suicidal with the virtue of personal experience and by changing the mindset of the masses with new, more accurate terminology: self execution. When a person takes their own life, it begins a chain reaction across the lives of both their loved ones and the strangers whose duty it is to care for their mortal remains. It sets up a state of emotional trauma in the minds of those left behind that might lead to further acts of self execution, links in a terrible chain. It is time to end this affliction on humanity. It is time to S.O.L.O.: Save Our Loved Ones.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. This is the new updated edition of the first book in the bestselling Uncovering Student Ideas in Science series. Like the first edition of volume 1, this book helps pinpoint what your students know (or think they know) so you can monitor their learning and adjust your teaching accordingly. Loaded with classroom-friendly features you can use immediately, the book includes 25 probes--brief, easily administered formative assessments designed to understand your students' thinking about 60 core science concepts. All probes in this new edition are provided in both Spanish and English. The detailed Teacher Notes that accompany each probe have been updated to include current research summaries, connections to A Framework for K-12 Science Education and the Next Generation Science Standards, new instructional suggestions, and related NSTA resources. These teacher materials also explain science content, present developmental considerations, and suggest instructional approaches for elementary, middle, and high school students. Other books may discuss students' general misconceptions about scientific ideas. Only this one provides single, reproducible sheets you can use to determine students' thinking about, for example, Moon phases, conservation of matter, reflection, chemical change, and cells. All probes have been field-tested with hundreds of students across multiple grade levels, so they're proven effective for helping your students reveal, reexamine, and further develop their understanding of science concepts.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Prayer is the most essential gift for Christians because it's the path to an intimate relationship with God. Without the practice of a prayerful living, how do you find your moral compass? In Secretly and Often, author Victor Thomas unpacks why you need to pray and discusses the different forms of prayer to enrich your experiences of talking with God. In this guide, Thomas encourages you to rethink what it is to talk to the creator, and he underscores how prayer is more than rattling off desperate petitions in times of crisis. As he discusses the different forms of prayer-petition and supplication, praise, thanksgiving, confession, and penitence-he answers a host of questions, including: Why is intercession so important? How does giving thanks transform your prayer life? Why does perspective influence petition? Secretly and Often shares the message that intimacy with God is always first and foremost. It serves as the base for all the activity that takes place in the life of Christianity. Prayer is the only road to intimacy with God.…
