Being a fan of humorist and author Erma Bombeck and enjoying her take on life, the author has brought her own style and insight to everyday situations and life moments, from a Baby Boomer’s perspective For example, do you feel invaded by a doctor prescribed colonoscopy? Does exercise, in general, make you feel there has to be a better way to lose weight and feel good? Does dealing with people sometimes leave you feeling like chewing glass would be less grating? Or that, being dragged by a horse could certainly give you a new appreciation for life in general? Do others’ opinions leave you feeling incompetent as to what you want to do with your life? And if death or divorce enters the stage, do you feel divided, dissected and defeated? These, and more of life’s little surprises, along with original poetry born from some of those experiences and observations, await you in You Can Be Anything You Want To Be!...Says Who?

Voted America's Best-Loved Novel in PBS's The Great American Read Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize-winning masterwork of honor and injustice in the deep South—and the heroism of one man in the face of blind and violent hatred One of the most cherished stories of all time, To Kill a Mockingbird has been translated into more than forty languages, sold more than forty million copies worldwide, served as the basis for an enormously popular motion picture, and was voted one of the best novels of the twentieth century by librarians across the country. A gripping, heart-wrenching, and wholly remarkable tale of coming-of-age in a South poisoned by virulent prejudice, it views a world of great beauty and savage inequities through the eyes of a young girl, as her father—a crusading local lawyer—risks everything to defend a black man unjustly accused of a terrible crime.

These twelve dazzling stories from Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie — the Orange Broadband Prize–winning author of Half of a Yellow Sun — are her most intimate works to date. In these stories Adichie turns her penetrating eye to the ties that bind men and women, parents and children, Nigeria and the United States. In “A Private Experience,” a medical student hides from a violent riot with a poor Muslim woman, and the young mother at the centre of “Imitation” finds her comfortable life in Philadelphia threatened when she learns that her husband has moved his mistress into their Lagos home. Searing and profound, suffused with beauty, sorrow and longing, this collection is a resounding confirmation of Adichie’s prodigious literary powers.
