Download or read book Father and Son written by E. O. Plauen and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2017-05-09 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Father and Son is one of the most beloved comic strips ever drawn—an uproarious, timeless ode to the pleasures, pitfalls, and endless absurdity of family life. Father and Son is a slyly heartwarming, dizzyingly inventive classic in the tradition of Calvin and Hobbes and The Simpsons. Created in 1934 by the German political cartoonist Erich Ohser (using the pseudonym E.O. Plauen after being blacklisted for his opposition to the Nazi regime), the gruff, loving, mustachioed father and his sweet but troublemaking son embark on adventures both everyday and extraordinary: family photoshoots and summer vacations, shipwrecks and battles with gangsters, a Christmas feast with forest animals and a trip to the zoo. Drawn almost entirely without dialogue, the strips overflow with slapstick, fantasy, and anarchic visual puns. Father and Son remains an uproarious, timeless ode to the pleasures, pitfalls, and endless absurdity of family life. This NYRC edition is an extra-wide hardcover with raised cover image, and features new English hand-lettering.
Download or read book Sweet Sixteen with Hodgkin s written by Catherine Jodeit and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on 2007-10 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When author Cathy Jodeit found out that her daughter Molly had Hodgkin's Lymphoma, she did what most moms would do: She and her husband, Mel, went straight to the Lord in prayer and asked others to pray for Molly and their family as well. Cathy's prayer requests quickly turned into email requests and devotionals. With the help of her friend, Kitty, they were sent to a large e-mail list that continued to gain momentum with each week of their journey. Kitty faithfully compiled these e-mails as well as the responses that were sent to Cathy in care of her. Molly's story, written through the eyes of a mother, is one that inspires and truly shows the power of prayer. "Sweet Sixteen with Hodgkin's" is a book for anyone who is struggling with something hard that life has thrown them. In this instance, cancer was the missile that had been launched in theirs.
Download or read book Out of the Darkness into the Son s Light written by Mavis Garrison and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2016-09-07 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine a little girl that lived for many years in terror and fear. She would experience sexual abuse, rape and other forms of abuse. The word normal was not in her vocabulary. Therefore she ultimately began to make unhealthy choices for herself and her children. Feeling as though she had inflicted her trauma on her children seemed to worsen the guilt. Mavis seemed to function in crisis. She would live many years before finding the Truth. Eventually Mavis would find forgiveness and learn how to forgive others. Through this forgiveness the Lord would restore relationships and show her the meaning of complete joy. Only He can restore abuse to preservation and respect, terror to joy and happiness, fear to courage and bravery, trauma to healing, crisis to peace, guilt to innocence, shame to honor and respect, and turn your sorrow to joy. The past does not define who we are or our destiny for the present or future. The abuse is what happened to me, but it is not who I am. I have finally found my true identity.

Book excerpt: Olivia begins her life facing the challenge of a physical disability, and at age 12, finds her life dramatically changed after the death of her mother in the late 1950s. Having been sheltered by the closeness of a large extended family, she and her 11-year-old brother Lenny suddenly find themselves with an uncertain future living with their self-centered father, as their older brother Benjy goes off to join the army. The frustrated children shuttle between Brooklyn and the familys upstate home in Liberty, New York, while Olivia struggles to balance her complicated life as a teenager with adult responsibilities. Strong family ties and the house that bonds her with fifteen close cousins, strengthen Olivias fortitude to deal with the trials she encounters on the road ahead.

Download or read book If You Can t Be Better Than an N Word Then Who Can You Be Better Than written by Thomas Sass and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2012-11 with total page 716 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America's elites utilize the divide-and-conquer strategy, and with African Americans, they have found their first target. Centuries of brainwashing have instilled a superiority high in many whites and at the same time placed blacks in less-than positions. I intend to show to what extent Apartheidism and the "less-than" culture affect blacks in several different environments, such as how the criminal "justice" system is used to marginalize and criminalize blacks at rates disproportionate to their population. Even the sports world can be more problematic for blacks than for non-blacks. I will present people and events that will show the double standards society has been led to not only accept but to expect, and just how easily we seem to have been manipulated. Most, and perhaps none of which could have been so relatively easily accomplished if the "drug" of superiority did not cloud our perceptions.
