HOW TO RATTLE YOUR NEAREST AND DEARESTA resonant tale of love, loss, and learning how to let goBette Gartner, a ninety-five-year-old widow, wakes up one morning and decides to throw a dinner party that night for her small family, staff, two neighbors, and a medium-and no one knows why.The story takes place over the course of the day and is told through the multiple points of view of Bette's guests, switching back and forth between them as we learn about their motivations, dreams, hopes, and fears. These various storylines converge at the dinner table, where the coming together of different personalities, each with their own tensions and pain points, erupts into epiphanies, resolutions, and new beginnings before the final act of the evening Bette has planned.Alpha Bette is more than the story of a particular family's history. Aside from recounting how the characters navigate the daily mundanities of urban life, it also dwells on their larger existential anxieties and the impact of the holes and absences that deceased and displaced loved ones leave behind.

Grace Livingston Hill (April 16, 1865 - February 23, 1947) was an early 20th-century novelist and wrote both under her real name and the pseudonym Marcia Macdonald. She wrote over 100 novels and numerous short stories. Her characters were most often young Christian women or become Christians within the confines of the story. Hill's writing career began as a child in the 1870s, writing short stories for her aunt's weekly children's publication, The Pansy. Her first story printed in book form was The Esselstynes, which was published in 1877 as part of the "Mother's Boys and Girls Library" by D. Lothrop & Company.A Chautauqua Idyl, her first book as a young adult, was written in 1887 to earn enough money for a family trip from her Florida home to the summer Chautauqua gathering at Chautauqua, New York. This illustrated allegory of a Chautauqua gathering held by the flowers, tree, and animals was published in time to be offered for sale that summer and brought enough earnings to take the family there. Several books written in collaboration with her family followed in the early 1890s, as well as her only children's book, A Little Servant.Lack of funds was a frequent motivator, particularly after the death of her first husband left her with two small children and no income other than that from her writing. After the death of Hill's father less than a year later, her mother came to live with her. This prompted Hill to write more frequently. During and after her failed ten-year marriage to second husband Flavius Josephus Lutz, a church organist 15 years her junior, she continued to write to support her children and mother. She stopped using the Lutz surname after they parted ways in May 1914.Although many of her earlier novels were specifically intended to proselytize, Hill's publishers frequently removed overt references to religious themes. After her publishers realized the popularity of her books, references to religious topics were allowed to remain, although she later modified her writing style to appeal to a more secular audience. The last Grace Livingston Hill book, Mary Arden, was finished by her daughter, Ruth Hill Munce, writing under the name of Ruth Livingston Hill, and published in 1948. (wikipedia.org)

This book offers insight into tensions faced by many women between cultural expectations to cook as a service to others, while eating to achieve or maintain thinness. The author engages with a feminist theoretical lens for textual, rhetorical, and critical discourse analysis of cooking shows and popular diets to analyze the need for alternatives to commonly accepted gendered expectations attached to food. This book stresses that understanding the rhetoric of women's relationships with food can aid in re-examining the limitations of exclusively diagnosing and treating eating disorders as a mental illness by identifying and understanding them as potential byproducts of toxic grand narratives surrounding food consumption and societal pressures of thinness.
She lost her left breast, her job, and her guy. She does not know it yet, but this is the best day of her life. An inspiring and surprisingly comedic tale of loss and acceptance told largely through silent sequential narrative, About Betty’s Boob is seminal work from master storytellers Véro Cazot and Julie Rocheleau.
The Animal Lights Series is an extension of P.M.H. Atwater's book: The Forever Angels: Near-Death Experiences in Childhood and Their Lifelong Impact and consists of six small books about animal babies who have prebirth memories, like many human children do. Each of the six babies - monkey, fawn, kitten, skunk, hedgehog, horse - remember different things about living in light, conception, moving into their mommies "pocket place" (womb), developing a body, miscarriage, birth, handicaps, full healthy living. Each book is designed to help parents talk to their children about remembering anything, anything at all, from before they were born.P. M. H. Atwater, L.H.D., noted research pioneer in the field of near-death studies, and author of 18 books either about or concerning the topic, has sought for a way to help parents talk to their children about prebirth memories. Her books The Forever Angels: Near-Death Experiences in Childhood and Their Lifelong Impact and The New Children and Near-Death Experiences give us in-depth studies about what happens to the very youngest during such episodes, and what they face growing up with a different kind of memory.Illustrator for the Animal Lights series is Eva Marie Sakmar-Sullivan, a visionary and award-winning artist, children's book author/illustrator, and energy worker. Her artwork has been published in magazines and featured on book/album covers internationally. Kevin Williams, expert on near-death cases, author of books on the subject, as well as operator of one of the world's largest websites about the near-death phenomenon, did all final design work on the set and submitted them to Amazon as special e-books for children. Stephanie Wiltse, professional website designer and web-assistant assisted him.
