Gordie Tapp has been making audiences laugh for more than 60 years. Johnny Cash called him "the funniest" and Foster Brooks introduced him to President Ford as "the world's greatest story-teller." Born in London, Ontario, in 1922, he has been married to Helen for 62 years. They have four children. He graduated from Lorne Greene's Radio Arts Academy in Toronto in 1947 and helped launch a radio station in Niagara Falls. A radio pioneer, he switched from playing dance band music to country music - and never looked back. He started country music shows on television in Canada for the CBC in the late 1950s-early60s and then helped launch Hee Haw in the United States - a show that ran for more than 25 years with a weekly audience of more than 50 million - with his Cousin Clem character. Gordie loves to ride horses and Harleys and he was roller-blading until he was 82.

It's surprisingly common for children and adolescents to play with fire and to actually set fires. A single fire has the potential to cause a cascade of serious consequences to children, families, and their community, sometimes with devastating impact. Yet, there is limited practical information and evidence-based advice available to help programs and practitioners with children and adolescents who engage in this behavior. Assessment and Intervention with Children and Adolescents Who Misuse Fire presents practical guidelines to facilitate the clinical assessment and treatment of youth firesetting. Based on nearly four decades of research and intervention experience, the treatment is directed toward reducing any inappropriate involvement in fire or related activities in order to lower the risk for property damage, personal injury, and other adverse consequences associated with these behaviors. This evidence-based intervention provides clinicians with a comprehensive program for school-aged children, early adolescents, and adolescents, and the child and his/her caregiver(s) are both important participants in treatment. The modular approach allows for therapists to be flexible in deciding which topics to cover in order to best meet the needs of children and families. This treatment model encourages more appropriate and safe behaviors in both children/adolescents and their caregivers and provides skills likely to discourage fire involvement. In addition, the materials promote controlling exposure to incendiary materials and opportunities to use fire. The intervention is provided in a single volume, encompassing a practitioner guide, parent workbook, and child/adolescent workbook, including handouts for participating clients.
