Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life, Alice McKinley feels, is just one big embarrassment. Here she is, about to be a teenager and she doesn't know how. It's worse for her than for anyone else, she believes, because she has no role model. Her mother has been dead for years. Help and advice can only come from her father, manager of a music store, and her nineteen-year-old brother, who is a slob. What do they know about being a teen age girl? What she needs, Alice decides, is a gorgeous woman who does everything right, as a roadmap, so to speak. If only she finds herself, when school begins, in the classroom of the beautiful sixth-grade teacher, Miss Cole, her troubles will be over. Unfortunately, she draws the homely, pear-shaped Mrs. Plotkin. One of Mrs. Plotkin's first assignments is for each member of the class to keep a journal of their thoughts and feelings. Alice calls hers "The Agony of Alice," and in it she records all the embarrassing things that happen to her. Through the school year, Alice has lots to record. She also comes to know the lovely Miss Cole, as well as Mrs. Plotkin. And she meets an aunt and a female cousin whom she has not really known before. Out of all this, to her amazement, comes a role model -- one that she would never have accepted before she made a few very important discoveries on her own, things no roadmap could have shown her. Alice moves on, ready to be a wise teenager.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George is relieved of his job and evicted from the company's residential quarters as a result of false allegations of theft in his office. Life which has always been a bed of roses for him and his family turns out to be a nightmare as they are rendered homeless and subjected to penury. The demerits of having a handful of children is realised as the family's misfortune continues to ravage George, emotionally and physically. Meanwhile as poverty bites deeper into the family by the day, his wife Felicia who is his tower of strength refuses to give up on life, believing that the down fall of a man is not the end of his life. In his desperate quest for job, George runs into Raymond, an old college friend, who helps him to secure a small apartment and a job in a funeral home. But as George is destined for calamity, he gets involved in a ghastly auto crash on his way back from his boss' wedding. He loses his legs and finally takes to the dust, leaving his unhealthy house wife and children in the shackles of poverty. Felicia takes up the challenge and responsibility for scouring for a job of any nature at the expense of her delicate health, considering her children's wellbeing and education as her fundamental priority. But death eventually lays his icy hands on her after taking up a menial job that deteriorated her health condition. George's children remain orphans and become object of slavery, abuse and traffic as Mazi Amadi, a selfish and diabolical relative traffic's them off to individuals who subject them to sexual abuse and child labour, there by turning their dreams into nightmares, formerly bright future into a bleak one and making them social misfits. But as the saying goes, 'Evil hasa way catching up with it's perpetrators', the individuals responsible for the dehumanization, tears and agony of George's children face the consequences of their inhuman practices.

Book excerpt: Little Miss Sunshine meets Room in this quirky, heartwarming story of friendship, loyalty and discovery. It's Newfoundland, 1986. Fourteen-year-old Bun O'Keefe has lived a solitary life in an unsafe, unsanitary house. Her mother is a compulsive hoarder, and Bun has had little contact with the outside world. What she's learned about life comes from the random books and old VHS tapes that she finds in the boxes and bags her mother brings home. Bun and her mother rarely talk, so when Bun's mother tells Bun to leave one day, she does. Hitchhiking out of town, Bun ends up on the streets of St. John's, Newfoundland. Fortunately, the first person she meets is Busker Boy, a street musician who senses her naivety and takes her in. Together they live in a house with an eclectic cast of characters: Chef, a hotel dishwasher with culinary dreams; Cher, a drag queen with a tragic past; Big Eyes, a Catholic school girl desperately trying to reinvent herself; and The Landlord, a man who Bun is told to avoid at all cost. Through her experiences with her new roommates, and their sometimes tragic revelations, Bun learns that the world extends beyond the walls of her mother's house and discovers the joy of being part of a new family -- a family of friends who care.

Download or read book American AGONY written by Helen Borel and published by Fresh Ink Group. This book was released on 2020-01-18 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Managing pain with opioids is a science—except politics, money, and overzealous law enforcement are denying American patients the relief they so desperately need. Demonizing the best pain reliever we have leads to needless suffering, even suicides, and it drives the rise in deadly street drugs. Helen Borel gathers and presents the evidence, the intimidation, the raids of clinics, the chilling effect on those very professionals we trust to care for our loved ones and ourselves. She looks hard at the Veterans Administration, Drug Enforcement Agency, Department of Justice, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Chapters include “The Suboxone Hoax,” “The Wrong Arms of the Law,” and “The Epidemic of Death,” plus an entire section on solutions for this widespread crisis. Read American AGONY now—or youmight be the next one hurt.

Other topics are: holosync audio technology, hypnosis, brainwave entrainment, vibration energy, manifestation intelligence, learning strategies, the genius code, brainwaves, positive and negative cellular memories, core beliefs, image streaming, conscious and subconscious minds, energy frequency, super longevity, right- and left-brain synchronizing, Einsteins theory of relativity and quantum physics. There is considerable information regarding the control that our subconscious has on our conscious mind. I quote several world-renowned speakers who deal extensively with this awareness. After living in Brazil for eight years, I take the reader into the jungle of Brazil, along with the asphalt jungle, Sao Paulo, the third largest city in the world when we lived there in the 1970s; and also our adventures on three continents. I also take the reader into my mind during a manic psychosis and my husbands depressed psychosis. There is hope offered throughout the book with humorous stories. I welcome you to join me in the excavation of the mind and to realize the possibilities and potential in each of us.
