Book excerpt: Joan and Dick Wexo are first time book writers. They finally wrote Glenn Stories, the book, after years of telling the stories to family, friends, acquaintances, and even strangers. They had first worked on a list of any and all stories they could remember from Glenn's childhood. When they found themselves reliving particular stories over and over they decided to put them in book form. Dick is retired from a career in television. He worked in New York City, N.Y., Miami, Florida (twice) and New Orleans, Louisiana. Joan is justly proud of her long highly successful and rewarding stint as Glenn's mother. Joan, Dick and now adult son Glenn currently live in South Florida and are the owners of South Florida Rehearsal Studios and South Florida Real Sound. The Wexo's enjoyed the writing of Glenn Stories so much that they have begun work on a children's book, The House Mouse. Glenn Stories are just as advertised. They take the reader along a 14 plus years journey of individual stories about Glenn Richard Wexo, from a 3 month old adopted son to a teenager. The stories show the growth of a smart, active, dynamic, creative, and inquisitive person from baby to teen. The stories encompass his activities involving parents and grandparents, extended family, friends, colleagues, teachers, acquaintances, and even passing strangers. They could be the stories of many a young person. They are stories that show a complete growing person, warts and all. Over the fourteen year period covered, the reader will first meet Glenn in Brooklyn, New York where and he and parents lived until he was three. It highlights his early upbringing of baby to young child surrounded by family, and long term friends in an environment comfortable for all. Then it's on to South Florida where the entire family must make all kinds of adjustments to its new life. Finally, on to New Orleans and yet another life style adjustment just as Glenn heads into his teenage years. It was a wonderful ride.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stories live beyond generations. It is, in part, for that reason that the Almighty has created an enormous library of stories specifically selected and edited by inspired prophets-a library called the Holy Scriptures. For thousands of years the children of God have read and applied those same stories to their own lives. Those stories are a divine gift conveying doctrine, principles, and examples of righteous living, or its opposite. Stories tend to stick in our minds, memories, and heart, instructing, inspiring, and edifying long after the first reading. I love the Old Testament because it is so real and so human. Its pages are full of real-life heroes and the worst stripe of villains. There are numerous layers of meaning embedded in each story, and this bookrepresents decades of study, insight, and application.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the former director of the Museum of Arts and Design in New York, a timely and passionate case for the role of the well-designed object in the digital age. Curator and scholar Glenn Adamson opens Fewer, Better Things by contrasting his beloved childhood teddy bear to the smartphones and digital tablets children have today. He laments that many children and adults are losing touch with the material objects that have nurtured human development for thousands of years. The objects are still here, but we seem to care less and know less about them. In his presentations to groups, he often asks an audience member what he or she knows about the chair the person is sitting in. Few people know much more than whether it's made of wood, plastic, or metal. If we know little about how things are made, it's hard to remain connected to the world around us. Fewer, Better Things explores the history of craft in its many forms, explaining how raw materials, tools, design, and technique come together to produce beauty and utility in handmade or manufactured items. Whether describing the implements used in a traditional Japanese tea ceremony, the use of woodworking tools, or the use of new fabrication technologies, Adamson writes expertly and lovingly about the aesthetics of objects, and the care and attention that goes into producing them. Reading this wise and elegant book is a truly transformative experience.

Book excerpt: *"[An] excellent exercise in narrative nonfiction." --Booklist (starred review) From New York Times bestselling author Andrew Maraniss comes the remarkable true story of Glenn Burke, a "hidden figure" in the history of sports: the inventor of the high five and the first openly gay MLB player. Perfect for fans of Steve Sheinkin and Daniel James Brown. On October 2nd, 1977, Glenn Burke, outfielder for the Los Angeles Dodgers, made history without even swinging a bat. When his teammate Dusty Baker hit a historic home run, Glenn enthusiastically congratulated him with the first ever high five. But Glenn also made history in another way--he was the first openly gay MLB player. While he did not come out publicly until after his playing days were over, Glenn's sexuality was known to his teammates, family, and friends. His MLB career would be cut short after only three years, but his legacy and impact on the athletic and LGBTQIA+ community would resonate for years to come. New York Times bestselling author Andrew Maraniss tells the story of Glenn Burke: from his childhood growing up in Oakland, his journey to the MLB and the World Series, the joy in discovering who he really was, to more difficult times: facing injury, addiction, and the AIDS epidemic. Packed with black-and-white photographs and thoroughly researched, never-before-seen details about Glenn's life, Singled Out is the fascinating story of a trailblazer in sports--and the history and culture that shaped the world around him. Praise for Singled Out: "A compelling narrative . . . This is a meticulously researched history of the ways queer culture in the ’70s intersected with baseball, Blackness, and larger culture wars, with one man at their center." --Kirkus Reviews

Book excerpt: A 2021 NCTE Charlotte Huck Award Honor Book A Chicago Public Library Best Book of 2020 A 2021 ALA Rainbow Book A Bank Street Best Book of 2021 A heartfelt and relatable novel from Phil Bildner, weaving the real history of Los Angeles Dodger and Oakland Athletic Glenn Burke--the first professional baseball player to come out as gay--into the story of a middle-school kid learning to be himself. When sixth grader Silas Wade does a school presentation on former Major Leaguer Glenn Burke, it’s more than just a report about the irrepressible inventor of the high five. Burke was a gay baseball player in the 1970s—and for Silas, the presentation is his own first baby step toward revealing a truth about himself he's tired of hiding. Soon he tells his best friend, Zoey, but the longer he keeps his secret from his baseball teammates, the more he suspects they know something’s up—especially when he stages one big cover-up with terrible consequences. A High Five for Glenn Burke is Phil Bildner’s most personal novel yet—a powerful story about the challenge of being true to yourself, especially when not everyone feels you belong on the field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Glenn Curtiss (1878–1930) was a self-taught aeronautical engineer, a self-made industrialist, and one of the first airplane pilots, the model for “Tom Swift.” C. R. Roseberry’s biography begins with Curtiss’s years in Hammondsport, New York, his experiments with designing and learning to fly his own airplanes, and his many “firsts” in aviation history. Establishing one of the first aviation schools, Curtiss also developed a highly successful aviation company and designed one of the most popular early American planes—the Curtiss JN-4 (the “Jenny”). More than just a biography, this is also a well-documented history of the development of aviation and the key figures associated with it during the first three crucial decades of this century. Through an examination of Curtiss’s dealings with people such as Alexander Graham Bell, his original partner, and Wilbur and Orville Wright, his most important rivals, Roseberry provides insight into the overall development of flight in America. Aviation enthusiasts, historians, those interested in American technology and industry, and all who enjoy a good story will welcome this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I have been listening to Glenn Pray stories for over forty years. This book hit the entertainment mark, it made me laugh and it made me cry...a thoroughly enjoyable read." Randy Ema, Duesenberg historian. In this amusing book, Glenn Pray tells the story of himself and his rise to fame. Claiming he "started out with nothing and has most of it left," he borrowed a twenty-dollar bill, and bought the Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg Company. Within months, his name was splashed across every major newspaper from coast to coast and around the world as he began manufacturing his "second generation" Cord and Auburn automobiles. In Glenn Pray, a "poor boy with poor ways," we see a person who was determined to succeed. His charismatic character exemplifies the epitome of positive thinking, always looking for the humor in every situation, and making friends out of strangers. Glenn Pray is the embodiment of the American Spirit. A humorist, patented inventor, high speed test car driver, classic car designer, motivational speaker, teacher, aerobatic pilot, Marine, the king of barter, successful businessman, and gifted storyteller; Glenn Pray is a fascinating study of man's uncanny ability to fight the odds and win despite circumstance. Glenn himself said, "I worked my guardian angel to death." Surely, after reading about Glenn Pray's numerous brushes with serious injury or death, you will agree. If anyone had a guardian angel protecting him, certainly that person would be Glenn Pray. You will find the Glenn Pray story fascinating, hilarious, and inspirational.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While her friends head off to college, Shannon Burke is stuck with a dead-end job and the responsibility of saving her mother's business. The only bright spot is her upcoming birthday and a visit from her eccentric Aunt Rebecca. But before Shannon can blow out her candles, she receives devastating news: Rebecca is dead. When she learns that her aunt has gifted her a beat-up camper, Shannon decides to sell it for cold, hard cash. Then she loses her job and finds a mysterious map in the glove box, and in a moment of desperation, she jumps behind the wheel and hits the road. Following Rebecca's maps, Shannon journeys deep into New York's Adirondack Mountains where she faces her greatest fears and navigates a new reality that is as unpredictable as the wilderness itself. During her scavenger hunt of self-discovery, Shannon experiences the healing power of nature, uncovers a stunning family secret, and comes to realize that a person's path through life is never clearly marked.
