  Dear Big Sister friend, If you are waiting for the birth of your younger sister, or you have a younger sister and you want to know how to deal with it, this book is for you... When the mother says: The little sister is a precious gift, she means it is a gift for YOU... not a gift to give to your friend at the earliest birthday party ... My advice is: Bear your little sister from birth until she becomes a cute lady, because then, you will be forced to bear her for the rest of your life, and forever... Your little sister will wear your clothes and shoes, play with your toys, rip your magazines and books, lose your tools, pens, and books... But you will forget it all when you look at your photo together while she embraces your waist smiling in cuteness. Or, when you wake up at night, finding her sleeping right next to you, and will often hug you with one of her limbs... Do not be surprised when you wake up in one morning finding her toes in your mouth.

  After Paul Stutzman finished hiking the Appalachian Trail, he found himself longing for another challenge, another adventure. Trading his hiking boots for a bicycle, Paul set off to discover more of America. Starting at Neah Bay, Washington, and ending at Key West, Florida, Paul traversed the 5,000-mile distance between the two farthest points in the contiguous United States. Along the way he encountered nearly every kind of terrain and weather the country had to offer—as well as hundreds of fascinating people whose stories listeners will love. Through cold and heat, loneliness and exhaustion, abundance and kindness, Paul pedaled on. His reward—and the listeners'—is a glimpse of a noble yet humble America that still exists and inspires. 
  Anyone who longs for adventure, who loves travel and stories of travel, and who loves this place called America will enjoy this book.

  Lance, a border collie, spends a few miserable weeks inside his owner's house before he is thrown outside and chained, without food, water or shelter. For 10 years he is kept alive by a neighbor but remains trapped on hostile territory, tortured by people and attacked by animals. Then he and the author accidentally cross paths. 
  When his owners threaten to get rid of him "permanently," Walter and his wife pull off a last-minute rescue and move to another town. End of story? No, just the beginning. Lance shows his gratitude by launching a reign of terror against his rescuers and anyone else he can get his teeth on. Experts and non-experts declare him a lost cause. His owner's face an agonizing dilemma: do we destroy the dog we rescued? 
  While waiting for his fate to be decided, Lance furnishes loads of comic relief. He makes every car ride a life-threatening yet rollicking (though not to the state trooper) adventure; his Houdini-like disappearing acts defy explanation; he fouls up a drug bust; and he challenges a swan to a swimming contest—guess who wins? When Lance isn't menacing, he's entertaining. 
  Fasten your seat belt and take the same crazy, emotional roller coaster ride his rescuers took. Be warned! Lance will get into your heart and under your skin (not literally, of course!)..
