Sinopsis

In "The Adventures of a Country Boy at a Country Fair," James Otis crafts a vivid and engaging narrative that captures the innocence and excitement of rural life through the eyes of a youthful protagonist. Employing a colloquial writing style imbued with humor and authenticity, Otis presents a robust depiction of the traditions surrounding country fairs during the late 19th century. This work not only entertains with its lively descriptions of rides, games, and rural customs but also serves as a sociocultural snapshot, offering insights into the dynamics of community and the simpler pleasures of country living at a time when urbanization was beginning to reshape American life. James Otis, a prolific author of children's literature, was known for his ability to connect with young readers through relatable characters and situations. Growing up in Massachusetts, Otis's experiences as a country boy deeply influenced his storytelling, infusing his works with a sense of nostalgia and authenticity. His background as a teacher and family man also played a pivotal role in his desire to inspire moral and ethical lessons through engaging tales. This delightful story is highly recommended for readers of all ages, particularly those who wish to explore the charm of rural culture and childhood adventure. "The Adventures of a Country Boy at a Country Fair" is not just a narrative but an invitation to remember the simple joys of life, making it a valuable addition to both personal and educational libraries.

    Renowned by law enforcement and clinical mental health experts nationwide, Delete Me: D.S.M. 7 Steps to Social Media Abstinence, was formerly only circulated through DRUGFR33.ORG.  
    Swipe left. It's time to delete the social media disease. There are currently no specialized treatments for social media addiction and anxiety type conditions attributed to social media usage. Whereas most "remedies" for social media abuse call for "vacations", "breaks", and "parental surveillance" from the applications, Delete Me refutes these methods as ineffective. Fortune 500 IT consultant & engineer turned clinical mental health researcher & crisis intervention counselor, J.A. Thomas insists that we’re far better off abstaining from the applications altogether. J.A. Thomas, MSW, who is one of a growing army of industry experts going offline, offers powerful and personal reasons for all of us to abandon these treacherous online platforms. J.A. Thomas left a lucrative career in Big Tech in pursuit of investigating online crime with law enforcement. Now a critical crisis intervention counselor, Thomas hopes to foster transparent public health information surrounding the dangers of social media usage and its links to severe mental health conditions and the illicit online sex & drug trades. The methodologies introduced in D.S.M. 7 insist in total abstinence from all social media applications as key to driving us towards richer and more meaningful ways of living by connecting us back to the world beyond the tiny blue screen. 
    "Educational, engaging and life saving! J.A.Thomas sounds the alarm on the coercive and destructive force that is big social. This book will help you change your life for the better and allow you to proudly proclaim ... I'm offline." 
    -Dr. J. S. Kastendiek | M.D. Clinical Psychiatry 
    "This deserves the attention of all parents."

    The icy Arctic cold stabbed at Wilfred's fingers and toes. A howling wind was pushing the ice pan he was stranded on out to sea -- and with it hope of rescue. His clothes, soaked when his dogsled fell through the ice, were now frozen. Lying near his sled dog for warmth, Wilfred fought off sleep, knowing he might never wake up. Adventurous Wilfred Grenfell was no stranger to danger. As a new Christian, this English doctor ministered to fishermen on the deadly North Sea. And when her heard about the appalling poverty and injustice across the ocean in Newfoundland, he went to work among the deperately poor fishing communities of the wild, remote Labrador coast. There Dr. Grenfell pioneered life-saving hospitals, schools, orphanages, and fishermen's co-ops as he shared the hope of the gospel with people whose lives has offered only despair. For good reason, everyone from heads of state to destitute children revered Sir Wilfred Grenfell for his kindness and courage.
