  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.

  Father Charles Coughlin (October 25, 1891 - October 27, 1979), was a controversial Canadian-American Catholic priest based in Michigan. Calling for monetary reforms, the nationalization of major industries and railroads, and protection of the rights of labor, Coughlin used weekly radio broadcasts to reach a mass audience of up to thirty million listeners during the 1930s. An early supporter of Franklin D. Roosevelt and his New Deal, Coughlin later became a harsh critic. Coughlin’s commentary also became more anti-semitic, and he supported some of the fascist policies of Hitler, Mussolini, and Hirohito. As a result, many American Catholic leaders, as well as the Vatican, wanted Coughlin silenced. After the outbreak of World War II in 1939, the Roosevelt administration finally forced the cancellation of his radio program and forbade the dissemination of his newspaper, Social Justice. In this recording, Coughlin discusses the concept of "unjust aggressors" both within the United States and abroad.

  A prizewinning journalist with a background in neuroscience, Helen Thomson spent years tracking down people who live with the world's most extraordinary neurological disorders—like a man who tried to break his back because his legs no longer felt like his own, and another who believed that he was dead for nine years. Not content to simply read about these cases on paper, Thomson reached out to ten people with these afflictions, and they agreed to tell her their stories. 
  Leaving behind the scans and the clinical histories, Unthinkable ties the first-ever interviews with the people who have these rare conditions together with cutting-edge science. Through these incredible tales, Thomson casts a light on the chaos that the human mind can create. She shows us how these strange conditions hold the keys to unlocking the biggest mysteries of the human brain, and provide a deeper understanding of the human condition itself. 
  Combining careful observation with bold science and vibrant storytelling, Unthinkable takes us on a deep dive into the weirdest corners of our brain, and helps us to see our own creativity, our emotions, and our consciousness more clearly.

  This bundle of books brings the ancient world of Rome to life by immersing readers in the everyday experiences of its people. Far from the battles and politics that dominate history books, this volume explores how Roman citizens spent their days—from bustling markets in the forum to quiet evenings with family in modest insula apartments or rural villas. Readers will gain insight into the structure of Roman homes, the diet of the average citizen, and the significance of clothing, hygiene, and household roles in shaping Roman identity. 
  The second part of the book focuses on work and social structure. Whether farmers in the countryside, artisans in the city, or traders in the empire’s vast markets, Romans occupied a wide range of roles. The influence of slaves, apprenticeships, and labor guilds is discussed alongside the rising middle class and their contributions to the Roman economy. Readers will also learn about education for boys and girls, how marriage and divorce functioned, and the importance of public spaces like bathhouses, theaters, and circuses in daily life. 
  The final section explores Roman religious life—both public and private. From ancestor worship at household shrines to elaborate temple ceremonies for gods like Jupiter, Venus, and Mars, religion permeated every aspect of Roman existence. This section also covers omens, superstitions, and the Roman calendar of festivals that blended spirituality with community. Daily Roman Life presents a vivid portrait of a complex, vibrant society—reminding us that behind every empire are the lives of ordinary people who cooked, prayed, worked, and dreamed.
