Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Based on the life of the late Judith Love Cohen, the fictionalized character, JULIE LEVINE obtained her Brooklyn College's class of 1952's college scholarship. Despite females being denied entrance to the college preparatory program at Lafayette High School, she graduated from there with honors, finished college with a degree in engineering, and earned her master's degree. While working for a NASA subcontractor, she married and had three children in between rocket launches. NASA selected her backup abort guidance system to go to the moon. At work, she met Sam Brown and as the Apollo 11 Mission approached, she discovered she was pregnant with his baby. She was one of the four original women of Apollo. Her youngest child is Jack Black, the actor and musician. Her oldest son continues her legacy in the aerospace industry and her daughter is an acclaimed businessperson. Judith's third child was a musician and record producer. He passed away from HIV AIDS in the '80s. When Elyse Wilk interviewed Judith for a magazine article, Judith asked her if she would be interested in writing more about her life's story. The exact words she used were, "You get me!" and Lunatics was launched. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. On the faraway planet Nifle, Spragley's father abandoned him when he was so young that he couldn't remember him. He often wondered if the ominous gloom that consumed him was the reason he never returned. Otherwise, his life is almost idyllic, until one day when a landslide leaves him wedged in rubble. Realizing that there's no escape, he pleads with his best friend to deceive his family and tell them he's gone for good. The father he never knew comes to his rescue, but fails to save him. Meanwhile, he reveals the reprehensible reasons for leaving his mother and tells Spragley about his unknown sister. Then he complains he can't stand by and watch his only son die, so he abandons him once again. Out of desperation, Spragley befriends a young stranger, a two-legged creature called a namisit. He learns his language and about the ways of his kind. Although Spragley despises all namisits because they're evil and cruel, he forms a strong bond with this one. Food and water become scarce, so Spragley's friend moves on, and this loss makes his life unbearable, but the solitude allows him to reflect. He regrets he ever lied to his family about his demise and realizes by not being there for them that he is no better a dad or husband than his father. He discovers the real meaning of truthfulness, forgiveness, and the importance of love. Spragley's father returns to warn him that every living thing around the namisits seems to die and never to trust one of them. Spragley has to make a hard choice: either do nothing and perish or follow his gut feeling that tells him to accept help from the namisits, but this could endanger the lives of all the dendrons in his valley.
