A river goddess, Ganschowehanne, teaches two children, a girl and a boy, about a river's beauty throughout the seasons. Her messages often take the form of haikus. The Schuylkill River in Pennsylvania is the river that inspired this book, and several of the haikus refer to the history of this lovely river. After the story, the book includes a more detailed history of the Schuylkill along with some nature and art activities for children. Hopefully, Ganschowehanne and the book's illustrations also inspire all of us to appreciate the magic and beauty of all rivers, wherever we are.

Have you ever wondered who you are and why you're here? There are many who question who they are in the world, thrown into a whirlwind of confusion without warning. Carmen Seguinot Matos was one of those people who questioned her identity with good reason. We are born. We live our lives based on what is given to us starting from birth through to adulthood. It could be prosperous, good, fair, bad, or horrible.If you think about the great uncertainty that surrounds us when we are born, you must admit there should be a manual to guide newborns into a successful life. Our parents should have a goal for us that will lead to victory. It's a good thing there is such a manual: the Bible, God's infinite Word. The goal all parents should have is for their children to have hearts for Jesus and live victorious lives into adulthood.God uses a variety of different ways to help us become strong, vital servants of Jesus Christ. Instead of shrinking back in the face of the struggles and challenges of this world, let's look up to the Lord and seek His strength, plan, and purpose. Come and let Carmen tell you a little bit about herself; you may have more in common than you would have imagined.
''Àpèké Born'' is an extremely enlightening story of a young Nigerian child, from birth to childhood, and on to adulthood. Her early childhood was punctuated with rich Yoruba family traditions and cultures. Dr. Mrs. Mofolusho Rosanwo saw in herself a reflection of her parents' beliefs and values, which she skilfully narrated in her book. She connects with several of her past with experiences of Christian nurturing and parental care, that deeply impact her personality and views about life. In this special book, ''Àpèké Born'', Mrs Rosanwo reveals the significance of being born in Yorubaland, a prominent part of Africa, the great black continent in the world, which is characterised by family social-cultural ideals and practices. This book is a wonderfully crafted compilation of pictures, stories and events, which reveal the true meaning of African life in Christ. It is one of the books that reads like the work of an Author that has published many books over many years. I am particularly excited by its exposition that the African child is a treasure. I therefore commend this book to all. Rev Olutayo Shodipo, President/Founder, Disability Empowerment Foundation, Nigeria
This book contains an innovation that makes it much easier to bid slams. This innovation will enable the bridge community to dramatically increase its bidding of grand slams. This book incorporates the 2/1 Game Force bidding system for major suit opening. This book also expands the Game Force system to partners holding 5 spades and an opening hand. The forcing response when R has 6-12p and a spade response is modified to show if O has 3-card spade support. The traditional 2/1 system is modified by the mechanics of a fast arrival convention to show game-level points. In addition, a simple worthless suit convention using a single bid is employed to show a worthless suit as opposed to the more complicated control system used in traditional 2/1.For minor suit openings, the book presents a simple method for using reverses. The book also shows how to use the Jacoby Transfer mechanism to show R's 5-card major. The book then shows how R can effectively use inverted minors to hamper the opponents' bidding. The book next shows how to bid overcalls of a 4-card heart suit to hamper the opponents from finding their spade suit. The book outlines the Kantar slam bids and shows how to locate the trump Queen after a 4NT bid. Finally, the book shows how to improve slam bidding using the Minorwood convention.
