How to Be a Great Dad: No Matter What Kind of Father You Had
"Most men spend very little time pondering the question, Am I doing the right things to become a great dad? This book addresses this most important question in a profound way. It's filled with personal stories, focused on powerful principles, and is written for real people. We all know how easy it is, biologically, to become a father. What we often don't realize is that it takes work, dedication, and learned skills to become a dad, especially a great dad." - From the foreword by Jack Canfield, Co-Creator, #1 New York Times best selling series Chicken Soup for the Soul (R) In How to Be a Great Dad, you will learn: - The 15-day Great Dad Challenge that transforms fathers into dads. - Why dads matter way more than you may think. - The lifelong impact fathers have on their children. - The three simple and strategic skills to great dad success that all dads can master. - Why bad or absent dads can land kids in prison. - How to become the father you wish you'd had. - Why "father nurture" is as important as "mother nurture." - Why saying "I'm proud of you" makes all the difference. - Why "I'll love you no matter what" means so much to your kids. - Why a hug is not "just a hug" when it comes from Dad. - How to build your kids' self-esteem. - How to give what you may not have received. - A doable process to overcome hurts or limitations from the past. Neil Chethik, executive director of The Carnegie Center, writes, "Keith Zafren is an inspiring guide on this adventure into the heart of fathering. Read this book. It will make you a better dad, and it may even help you forgive your own father for the mistakes he inevitably made." Neil Chethik Executive Director, The Carnegie Center for Literacy and Learning Author, FatherLoss and VoiceMale "WOW 'Healing a Father Wound' was by far the most impactful and emotional section of any book I have ever read. I can't even describe how deeply this teaching affected me. The feeling of 'choked up' stayed throughout reading the section, and keeps coming back even now. I realized clearly how my own father wound has affected my entire life, and still does to this day. It also made me realize how the healing process is a daily reward to me and my boys, and so worth the effort. My heart was smiling while my eyes filled with tears.

Bill and Shirley: A memoir

Bill Sutch and Shirley Smith were two of New Zealand's most significant twentieth-century figures: Sutch as an economist, influential civil servant, and inspirational proponent of innovation in the fields of social and economic development, and Smith as glass-ceiling breaker in the formerly male-dominated world of the law. Keith Ovenden's wise, urbane memoir begins with the early years of his marriage to Sutch and Smith's only child, Helen Sutch, and carries through Sutch's trial on charges under the Official Secrets Act to Smith's death over 30 years later. It offers unprecedented insights into both the accusations against Sutch and Smith's remarkable legal practice and, behind both, some of the dramas of their domestic life. Deeply intelligent and beautifully crafted, Bill and Shirley: A Memoir is a unique and intimate study of two complex and fascinating New Zealanders.

One Sip at a Time: Learning to Live in Provence

One Sip at a Time: Learning to Live in Provence

Keith and Val had a dream - to live in Provence, the land of brilliant sunlight and charming hilltop villages. But there were two problems: they weren't French speakers and they had full-time jobs. So they came up with a plan...Follow their adventures (and misadventures) as they quit their jobs, become consultants and split their time between two countries. Laugh along as they build a life in Provence, slowly mastering a new language and making friends with the locals over long meals and just a bit too much wine.This light and breezy memoir is full of wry observations on France, like the power of cheese to sway elections, the right and wrong ways for men to kiss each other, and the law requiring that blood donors must speak French.If you've ever dreamed of changing gears and learning what joie de vivre is really all about, you won't want to miss this delightful book.From the BookJoyeux Anniversaire The chef had written a cookbook and and signed it for Val. His inscription read, "Val rie, vous tes jeune et d licieuse comme les f ves du printemps" ("Valerie, you are young and delicious like the fava beans of springtime.") . . . I had so much to learn from the French.How to Kiss a Frenchman Here, not far from where we had stayed the year before, it was two kisses on the cheek rather than three. How were we supposed to know this? Was there a border we had crossed but somehow missed the sign? ("Welcome to Eastern Provence. Please Follow the Local Kissing Regulations. And Enjoy Your Lunch, Especially the Asparagus, Which is Delicious Right Now.") A Night at the Opera There are many words that are the same in French and English, like nation, pause, and danger. If I don't know a word in French, sometimes I will just fake it by using the English word with a French accent. It works most of the time. But you have to be careful. There are words that exist in both languages and have entirely different meanings. These are the infamous faux amis, or "false friends." Ask Val about the time she shocked her co-workers by talking about preservatives in food. Oops, preservative means "condom."Interregnum France had started to capture our hearts. It wasn't just a place we visited; it was becoming one of the places we lived. Thomas Jefferson is supposed to have said, "Every man has two countries - his own and France." Maybe he was on to something.

At the age of 19, S. Keith Kreitman was drafted into the Army and sent to the front lines as a combat medic in the European Theatre in the final days of World War II. He was thrust into the final, brutal battles with Allied troops as they broke through the German lines and ended the war in Europe, and stationed in Heidelberg as the occupation began. Highly decorated for courage under fire, he never considered himself a hero, but a citizen-soldier who held no illusions about war. The gritty realistic account of combat is balanced with the touching human and occasionally humorous accounts of the experience of military service, war and the aftermath.

Bosnian Authors in a European Window

Bosnian Authors in a European Window

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD

The study compares three Bosnian authors with three European titans: The poet Mak Dizdar to Homer, the novelist Meša Selimovic to Fyodor Dostoevsky, and the novelist Ivo Andric to Leo Tolstoy. The purpose is to move the appreciation of the writing of the most important Bosnian writers of the 20th century closer to the European literary community and to the wholeness of the literary phenomenon. Secondary literature on the Bosnian authors is too narrow, focusing on their ethnic heritages and the Balkan milieu in which they write and missing something essential to a critical appreciation of their works. The study creates not only affinities but, more importantly, amitiés between the authors. The discipline of comparative literature reveals what is missing in the secondary literature, namely, a vision of the literary universe, inclusive and comprehensive.
