In her childhood and again as a college student she rebels against the plan.

The Kimyal people give her the name Bad Legs, which to them reflects how her weak body shows them God's love. Finally, the late effects of Elinor's original polio force her to leave the place and people that her heart has embraced. She must find a way to say goodbye.

  Chief Operating Officer. Chief of Staff. General Manager. Second in Command. The job title can vary. But there is something that unifies these roles when you see them performed well. It’s a particular kind of person with a particular kind of wiring, and a particular kind of person whose strengths are amplified when working in a leadership duo.  
  Who is this person, you might ask? They’re called Seconds. And this book is dedicated to them.  
  In How to be Second, Nathan Young and David Hartman explore all sorts of questions about Seconds: Who is a Second? How do you know if you’re a Second? What are some strengths and challenges of Seconds? Why does my organization need a Second (or multiple Seconds)? How do I best work with or for a Second? How do I hire a great Second?  
  Seconds, at their core, are valuable leaders. But their leadership shows up best and is activated by working for another leader.  
  If you are a Second, a person who might need a Second, or if you're neither... leadership won't look the same to you after reading this book.

  This definitive guide to Hoodoo plant magic contains detailed information on dozens of roots and herbs. In Hoodoo Herbal, Starr Casas shares a lifetime of experience and family secrets in her usual plain-spoken, direct, and friendly style.   Mama Starr makes Hoodoo plant magic accessible to all. For example, snake plants (Dracaena trifasciata)—common houseplants that are readily available at garden stores and supermarkets—possess a long reputation for successfully keeping lying tongues from disrupting your home. As their leaves resemble a double-edged sword, they are believed able to cut through malicious works (spells) that may have been sent against you. They are valued for their anti-gossip properties.   The book features information about a wide variety of plants and how to use them, as well as practical tips regarding planting seeds, cutting, transplanting, and caring for plants so that they will care for you, too. Starr advises that as the plants thrive and grow, the works for which they are used will grow stronger, too—as will you.
