Dr. Seuss's hilarious Beginner Book about a boy who refuses to get out of bed! NOTHING is getting the young hero of this easy-reader out of bed—not an alarm clock, roosters, barking dogs, the police, the news media, or the United States Marines! With illustrations by beloved New Yorker cartoonist James Stevenson—and a plot that children and adults can relate to—this is a funny fantasy that the whole family can enjoy together! Originally created by Dr. Seuss, Beginner Books encourage children to read all by themselves, with simple words and illustrations that give clues to their meaning. "A rhyming story that is full of laughs. 'The alarm can ring. The birds can peep....Today's the day I'm going to sleep,' says a lazy boy one morning, and despite a pail of icy water, television coverage, and the arrival of the Marines, he vows to stay in bed--and he does! The repetition of concepts and words will keep children turning the pages, as will the energetic drawings. A sure draw for early readers."--Booklist.

In comical and complex poems, David Kirby examines our extraordinarily human condition through the lens of our ordinary daily lives. These keenly observant poems range from the streets of India, Russia, Turkey, and Port Arthur, Texas, to the imaginations of fellow poets Keats and Rilke, and to ruminations on the mundane side of life via the imperfect sandwich. Whether remembering girls' singing groups of the 1950s or recounting a child asking his priest if his dog would go to heaven, Kirby has the ability to make us laugh, but he can also bring us to tears through our laughter.

Does it seem like you won’t have enough time to teach your children what they need to know before they are grown? They will lean on the conversations they had with you during life’s most difficult moments—especially if you’re a single parent. In this book, D. Steve Walker illuminates how people fail to give children a foundation for making sense of life. He explores how to encourage them to become givers instead of beggars, how to urge them to seek God’s help when necessary, and how to navigate a world rife with divisions. He also answers questions such as: • How can we face our fears? • How can we develop strong relationships? • What does white privilege mean? • How should we view Black Lives Matter? The author also examines what it means to live an abundant life with disappointments, the importance of rest, and how to avoid self-destruction
