Meet Will Howard, an intense kid who knows what he wants: a day at the beach with his mom, dad, and sister, Lizzie. For Will, waiting to go is hard enough! What will happen when stormy weather spoils the family's plan?Saturday Surprise is the first in a series of children's books featuring an intense young boy named Will and his daily challenges--and triumphs--with emotional regulation and self-control. The series, Everyday Miracles, is grounded in the Nurtured Heart Approach®, a relationship-based methodology to help children discover their self-worth and channel their intensity in positive ways. The first of its kind--a narrative depiction of the Nurtured Heart Approach--Saturday Surprise is more than a typical children's book; it is an excellent resource for parents, teachers, and all manner of professionals who work with children and youth. (For more information on the Nurtured Heart Approach, see Transforming the Difficult Child: The Nurtured Heart Approach, by founder Howard Glasser.)

The latest roaring, rollicking adventure from Edgar Award-winner Joe R. Lansdale, featuring odd-couple P.I.s Hap and Leonard. Hap and Leonard are an unlikely pair--Hap, a self-proclaimed white trash rebel, and Leonard--a tough-as-nails Black, gay, Vietnam vet and Republican--but they're the closest friend either of them has in the world. After years of crime-solving companionship, something's changed: Hap, recently married to their P.I. boss, Brett, is now a family man. Amidst the worst flood East Texas has seen in years, the two run across a woman who's had her tongue nearly cut out, pursued by a heavily armed pair of goons. Turns out the girl survived a mob hit, and the boss has come to clean up the mess. On a chase that blows even the East Texas swampgrass back, Hap and Leonard must save the girl, and vanquish her foes, before the foes get them first. With a new case to solve, and a brand-new challenge to their relationship, will Hap and Leonard's friendship survive? Will Hap and Leonard survive? The Elephant of Surprise is rich with Lansdale's trademark humor, whip-smart dialogue, and plenty of ass-kicking adventures.
