    An MDLG and ABDL themed love story for the age play fetishist. 
    Please note: This book contains content only appropriate for individuals interested in the MDLG subgroup of BDSM. It includes kink related themes, psychological power-play both sexual and non-sexual, sub training in diaper wetting, punishment by bondage, spankings, butt plug, and genital teasing. 
    The story is a work of fiction, and although based on multiple personal experiences, Tina Moore does not assume to speak for the entire community. She also believes that the kink is as broad and diverse as the consenting adults who engage in it, and thus there is not a ‘correct’ way to be a consenting adult involved in age play and/or regression. 
    Tina Moore would like to thank all her loyal, supportive, and loving fans. She wishes you every happiness and success and hopes that you stay safe, calm, and healthy.

    Is your child a picky eater? Do they insist on having the same foods served over and over again? For many kids, picky eating is a sensory issue—whether it's the smell, taste, texture, or appearance of food. So, how can you help your child overcome these sensory sensitivities and ensure that they get the nourishment they need? 
     
     
     
    Written by a pediatric occupational therapist with a specialty certification in feeding, eating, and swallowing, Raising Adventurous Eaters offers eight evidence-based sensory strategies to help kids foster a healthy relationship with food. You'll learn all about how picky eating can be caused by sensory processing differences, and find step-by-step strategies for dealing with each sense. By learning to lean into their senses, children will better understand what's going on in their bodies. This fosters an intuitive eating approach, teaching kids to listen to their body's hunger and fullness cues and respect and respond to those cues appropriately. 
     
     
     
    Whether or not your child has a diagnosis of sensory processing disorder (SPD), or simply has sensory sensitivities when it comes to food, this book will help you set your child up for successful mealtimes, turning the most stressful time of the day into a time that your family can spend relaxing and bonding together around the table.

    In his book, Rasmus Rasmussen provides a full account of the Viking's [1893] journey from Norway to Chicago from a crew-member's point of view. The trip was not without peril and hardship. Their accommodations were crude. The weather, at times, threatened their very lives. Most cities rolled out the red carpet to meet them, but one rolled out the paddy wagon. All together, an informative journal and a delightful read, and one that compels reflection and awe of the exploits of our Viking ancestors. - Paul A. Anderson, Honorary Norwegian Consul General 
    Rasmussen's diary recounts the historic journey made by twelve courageous seamen aboard Viking and includes his personal experiences during and after the Fair [1893 Chicago World's Fair]. Viking is the first Viking ship to sail in nearly 1,000 years, showing the world that Leif Erikson could have reached the New World almost 500 years before Columbus. 
    The Addendum continues the story of Viking and brings the reader up to date on the most recent preservation accomplishments. - Friends of the Viking Ship, NFP

    CIA’s Most Controversial...

    Though it might be hard to believe, the Americans did not have a covert operations organization when they joined World War II, and like the British, it took them some time to realize it could be a powerful tool. As a result, the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) was not established until June 13, 1942, six months after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Nevertheless, during World War II, all the hard work in the United States led to the growth of the OSS into an organization with over 13,000 staff and 40 offices scattered across the world. Its purposes were initially similar to that of Britain’s Special Operations Executive, including espionage, sabotage, and intelligence assessments, but with time and experience, it expanded to include economic, psychological, and guerrilla warfare, as well as counter-intelligence work. And of course, it would all chart a path for the early days of America’s most famous intelligence agency, the CIA.  
    The agency has done some good things, and it has inarguably done some bad things. Naturally, people tend to remember the most controversial operations, from CIA-funded revolutions to the Bay of Pigs and domestic experiments such as the mysterious Project MK-Ultra. Many decisions were made, either by the agency or by those elected to give the agency direction, in the raw emotions of the Cold War, and this also colored many of the decisions. Regardless, well after Allen Dulles’ tenure as the CIA’s director, investigations uncovered the facts that the CIA did not merely operate overseas, but also conducted several operations against American citizens, which Dulles both knew about and approved.  
    This book looks at the operations that continue to fascinate, confuse, and disgust modern society, from the people who managed the operations to the results.

    Did you know that the English longbow was the “machine gun” of the medieval era, with its effectiveness being far greater than the crossbow? 
    The English longbow, typically made of yew wood, was one of the most powerful weapons in the Middle Ages that could change the course of battles. Measuring up to six feet in length, this weapon was highly regarded for its power and accuracy—trained archers could accurately shoot their target from over 200 yards. 
    The longbow also had a faster rate of fire compared to crossbows. Archers could release up to twelve arrows in a minute, while a crossbowman could only fire a maximum of three bolts in the same span of time. Because of this, longbowmen could unleash a devastating rain of arrows upon their enemies, disrupting their formations so the other units could charge in. 
    The medieval archers also required less training time to master the art of the longbow since the weapon’s mechanics were far simpler than that of crossbows. The most significant advantage of the longbow, however, was its penetrating power. An accurate shot could easily pierce through the armor of medieval soldiers. These archers would also fire at charging steeds to take down mounted knights. Without their mounts, heavily armored knights would be rendered immobile, making them almost completely vulnerable. 
    The history of the Middle Ages is rather complex and intricate. With so many events taking place simultaneously, it is easy to get confused over time. But that is about to change as this all-new history audiobook allows you to easily explore the gripping events that took place within this interesting period.
