DOWNLOAD EBOOK"Growing up homeless on the streets of Florida wasn't as much fun as my dad thought it would be. To him, a beat up Ford was a permanent address and a pistol meant a steady paycheck. To me, an eleven-year-old kid, it was a constant, lonely struggle for survival amongst thieves, predators, and killers. I only wish that's where it began and ended. This is my story so far." - Bobby Howell --------- From losing his family at the hands of a sociopathic father, to his eventual quest to bring justice to the very same man who gave him life, The Different One is a compelling autobiography about a boy surmounting monumental odds on the path to becoming a man. Written in a conversational style, Bobby Howell takes us through his tumultuous journey from childhood to adulthood, sharing true accounts of events from the heartwarming to the horrific in an honest and soul-searching voice that will leave even the most callous of readers speechless.

It is filled with practical, creative, effective, down-to-earth solutions to life’s challenging problems.”—Michele Weiner-Davis, author of Divorce Busting The 20th anniversary edition of a self-help classic, updated with a new preface: Tapping into widespread popular interest in highly effective, short-term therapeutic approaches to personal problems, author Bill O’Hanlon offers 10 Solution Keys to help you free yourself from "analysis paralysis" and quickly get unstuck from aggravating problems. Tired of feeling stuck all the time when you’re trying to solve a problem or are facing conflict? Do you get easily flustered or angry when a negative confrontation arises? Have you ever wished you could communicate more easily with your spouse, kids, colleagues, or anyone else you have a difference in opinion with? In this newly updated edition of Do One Thing Different, Bill O’Hanlon will arm you with his ten easy Solution Keys so that you can move quickly from "stuck" to "smooth sailing" in all aspects of your life. Humorous, direct, and—most important of all—effective, these keys will help you change how you view and "do" your problems—from difficult relationships to enhancing sexuality and resolving conflicts of all kinds. The next time you have a problem, try one of these Solution Keys: Break Problem Patterns: Change any one of what you usually do in the problem situation by doing one thing different! Example: If you usually get angry and defensive, sit quietly and listen. Find and Use Solution Patterns: Import solutions from other situations where you felt competent. Examples: What do you know on the golf course that you forget when you get behind the wheel of your car? What do you say to resolve a problem with an angry customer that you don't say to your angry partner? Shift Your Attention: Focus on what you would like to have happen rather than on what is happening. Grounded in therapeutic practice, Do One Thing Different will put you back in control of your emotions and your life.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTalking math with your child is simple and even entertaining with this better approach to shapes! Written by a celebrated math educator, this innovative inquiry encourages critical thinking and sparks memorable mathematical conversations. Children and their parents answer the same question about each set of four shapes: "Which one doesn't belong?" There's no one right answer--the important thing is to have a reason why. Kids might describe the shapes as squished, smooshed, dented, or even goofy. But when they justify their thinking, they're talking math! Winner of the Mathical Book Prize for books that inspire children to see math all around them. "This is one shape book that will both challenge readers' thinking and encourage them to think outside the box."--Kirkus Reviews, STARRED review

DOWNLOAD EBOOK“A Different One’’ is a collection of poetry written by Amna Thapa journeying through life, love, betrayal, tragedies and loss. This book is a heart-wrenching expression of raw emotion simplified in short, but thoughtful pieces. These poems are for those who love too deeply, for those who break too easily, and for those who continue to rise— time and time again. Thapa’s words enable readers to confront their deepest sorrows and piece together the parts that are broken. This is a book of heartbreak and healing— but more importantly, a poetry of overcoming, struggling and choosing to be a different one in a blind world with alike thinking minds. It is easy to nod and get along with a group of identical people but what if your mind goes against your actions, what if there is a strong urge for you to rebel against wrong actions, what if you are an original from all the photocopies in the world, what if you finally decide to risk all your smiling companions for being a different one, would you?
