    Sales Pitch by Philip K. Dick - There are pushy salesmen and then there are PUSHY salesmen who refuse to give up... until they make the sale! 
    Commute ships roared on all sides, as Ed Morris made his way wearily home to Earth at the end of a long hard day at the office. The Ganymede-Terra lanes were choked with exhausted, grim-faced businessmen; Jupiter was in opposition to Earth and the trip was a good two hours. Every few million miles the great flow slowed to a grinding, agonized halt; signal-lights flashed as streams from Mars and Saturn fed into the main traffic-arteries. 
    "Lord," Morris muttered. "How tired can you get?" He locked the autopilot and momentarily turned from the control-board to light a much-needed cigarette. His hands shook. His head swam. It was past six; Sally would be fuming; dinner would be spoiled. The same old thing. Nerve-wracking driving, honking horns and irate drivers zooming past his little ship, furious gesturing, shouting, cursing... 
    And the ads. That was what really did it. He could have stood everything else -- but the ads, the whole long way from Ganymede to Earth. And on Earth, the swarms of sales robots; it was too much. And they were everywhere. 
    He slowed to avoid a fifty-ship smashup. Repair-ships were scurrying around trying to get the debris out of the lane. His audio-speaker wailed as police rockets hurried up. Expertly, Morris raised his ship, cut between two slow-moving commercial transports, zipped momentarily into the unused left lane, and then sped on, the wreck left behind. Horns honked furiously at him; he ignored them.

     A charming tale of the times when mom and dad stand on different sides of the same opinion – their child’s happiness 
    Explaining to your child that pops and moms lead separate lives of their own and sometimes have a bone to pick up with each other can be a tough challenge! 
    It gets even trickier when your young one starts to wonder why pops is not getting along with grandpa or his borthers. 
    Our main character Theo is a tween like everyone else – he is bored out of his mind at home and wants some adventure to shake up his monotonous school days. It’s when his parents decide to visit the castle of Monroe do things become a bit shaky. 
    “A Visit to Monroe” tells the story of the backstage life parents often hide from their children and the consequences when our secrets come to light. Though thin on the outside, this small tale of ordinary life teaches youngsters how to act according to their family virtues while still following their dreams and views on life. 
    A prayer on every page and invaluable life lessons throughout, you and your child will be equally enriched as you read him or her to sleep. 
    At times, we lack the basics for parenthood and so resort to fairytales, stories, and even professional help. Having one of these books by your side when a lesson must be taught will aid you when your own words fail you.
