Book excerpt: This humor book is a collection of hilarious essays on parenting in the era of Facebook and texting. If you're a parent - or just thinking about making arguably the biggest mistake of your life by starting a family - then YOU'RE GROUNDED FOR LIFE may make you a better parent. Probably not. In fact, I'm laying 10-to-1 odds it won't. But you never know. Whether you're the parent of a toddler, a middle schooler or a college sophomore, you'll find innovative parenting strategies the author has tried - all with hilariously disastrous results. If you're looking for a humor book that looks at the funny side of trying to parent children intent on driving you insane, you've found it. As the father of high-spirited, rambunctious daughters, Tim Jones, author of the popular humor blog View From The Bleachers, playfully shares pearls of parenting wisdom honed from futilely trying to understand the mysterious minds of kids. If you happen to have figured it out, could you give him a call? He'd really appreciate it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does This Sound Familiar? “Hey, Gimme a Break!” “Aw… You Just Don’t Understand!” “Try to see it my way for once!” … the lines of every teenager through history, right? Not this time! The dirty little secret is that your parents were actually your age once. Believe it or not, they went through a lot of the same junk you’re going through now (including with their parents!) … and another dirty little secret is that some day you’ll be trying to make sense of your kids and their lives. Read This Book Or You’re Grounded! gives you six chapters with a lot of sound-bites and cool ‘boarding-inspired cartoons, plus wisdom and common sense with an attitude. Read This Book Or You’re Grounded! includes two chapters on understanding, two on getting along one on special needs and concerns; and a final wrap-up of marching orders to put all this wonderful wisdom into practice. God is here, too: author Wayne Rice lays a spiritual foundation for mutual respect, common understanding, and getting along with parents in all ways. This book can change your life… change the life of your family… and change your relationship with those sometimes-weird parental units who hang around the kitchen, hog the TV, and act like it’s their own house.

Book excerpt: A fashion accessory. An occasional song. A popular tattoo. In the Hip-Hop culture, Jesus Christ is often reduced to a cultural icon. But He’s so much more. While millions of people worldwide identify themselves as part of this culture, far too few know much about the cross that is inked onto their shoulders or the Jesus who adorns their necklaces. Aimed specifically at the Hip Hop–influenced generation, You’re Groundedisa reliable, insightful book about the person of Jesus Christ and the Christian life. Written in an easy-to-read fashion, each chapter starts with a story from urban culture—using figures and examples familiar to the culture, like Michael Jordan, Tupac, the TV show Good Times—and then transitions to highlight truth found in Scripture concerning Jesus Christ. This book is ideal for small group and discipleship settings. It’s a great resource for high school and college campus ministries, as well as juvenile and adult prison ministries.

Book excerpt: An eye-opening and fascinating slow travel journey from an acclaimed writer who circled the globe without ever leaving the ground. In this age of globalism and high-speed travel, Seth Stevenson, the witty, thoughtful Slate columnist, takes us back to a time when travel meant putting one foot in front of the other, racing to make connections between trains and buses in remote transit stations, and wading through the chaos that most long-haul travelers float 35,000 feet above. Stevenson winds his way around the world by biking, walking, hiking, riding in rickshaws, freight ships, cruise ships, ancient ferries, buses, and the Trans-Siberian Railway-but never gets on an airplane. He finds that from the ground, one sees the world anew-with a deeper understanding of time, distance, and the vastness of the earth. In this sensational travelogue, each step of the journey is an adventure, full of unexpected revelations in every new port, at every bend in the railroad tracks, and around every street corner.

Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller “We all want to raise children with good values—children who are the opposite of spoiled—yet we often neglect to talk to our children about money. . . . From handling the tooth fairy, to tips on allowance, chores, charity, checking accounts, and part-time jobs, this engaging and important book is a must-read for parents.” — Gretchen Rubin, author of The Happiness Project In the spirit of Wendy Mogel’s The Blessing of a Skinned Knee and Po Bronson and Ashley Merryman’s Nurture Shock, New York Times “Your Money” columnist Ron Lieber delivers a taboo-shattering manifesto that explains how talking openly to children about money can help parents raise modest, patient, grounded young adults who are financially wise beyond their years For Ron Lieber, a personal finance columnist and father, good parenting means talking about money with our kids. Children are hyper-aware of money, and they have scores of questions about its nuances. But when parents shy away from the topic, they lose a tremendous opportunity—not just to model the basic financial behaviors that are increasingly important for young adults but also to imprint lessons about what the family truly values. Written in a warm, accessible voice, grounded in real-world experience and stories from families with a range of incomes, The Opposite of Spoiled is both a practical guidebook and a values-based philosophy. The foundation of the book is a detailed blueprint for the best ways to handle the basics: the tooth fairy, allowance, chores, charity, saving, birthdays, holidays, cell phones, checking accounts, clothing, cars, part-time jobs, and college tuition. It identifies a set of traits and virtues that embody the opposite of spoiled, and shares how to embrace the topic of money to help parents raise kids who are more generous and less materialistic. But The Opposite of Spoiled is also a promise to our kids that we will make them better with money than we are. It is for all of the parents who know that honest conversations about money with their curious children can help them become more patient and prudent, but who don’t know how and when to start.

Book excerpt: A middle grade novel about a 12-year-old girl dealing with loss, who uncovers a rather grisly scam involving a crematorium. After her brother, sister, and father die in a plane crash, Daralynn Oakland receives 237 dolls from well-wishers, resulting in her nickname: Dolly. But dolls are little comfort to a twelve-year-old girl whose world is rocked by the dramatic changes in her life, including her angry, grieving mother's new job as a hairstylist at the local funeral home. Dolly gets a job, too, where she accidentally invents a fashionable new haircut. But in Grounded by Kate Klise, her real work begins when a crematorium comes to town, and someone has to save a dying business, solve a burning mystery, and resuscitate the broken hearts in Digginsville, Missouri, population 402.
