Book excerpt: Perfect for fans of Rain Reign, this middle-grade novel The Brave is about a boy with an undiagnosed anxiety issue and his move to a reservation to live with his biological mother. Collin can't help himself—he has a mental health condition that finds him counting every letter spoken to him. It's a quirk that makes him a prime target for bullies, and frustrates the adults around him, including his father. When Collin asked to leave yet another school, his dad decides to send him to live in Minnesota with the mother he's never met. She is Ojibwe, and lives on a reservation. Collin arrives in Duluth with his loyal dog, Seven, and quickly finds his mom and his new home to be warm, welcoming, and accepting of his disability. Collin’s quirk is matched by that of his neighbor, Orenda, a girl who lives mostly in her treehouse and believes she is turning into a butterfly. With Orenda’s help, Collin works hard to learn the best ways to manage his anxiety disorder. His real test comes when he must step up for his new friend and trust his new family.

Amid the turmoil of her sister’s disappearance, Payton feels lost as the one left behind. Her mental state wrought and reckless, she tumbles from the graces of popularity to the outskirts of high school society, where she attracts a rag-tag group of friends—and a troubling romance with her sister’s boyfriend, Cole. Though Payton remembers nothing of the day Dylan disappeared, she must pry into her own mind when another missing girl’s body is recovered from a nearby lake, the victim’s features eerily similar to Dylan’s. The further Payton presses into the recesses of her memory, the more danger surrounds her. The darkness around her sister’s disappearance grows and the truth becomes more and more unbearable. What she finds might just cost Payton her life. Losing Brave: Is written by award-winning actress Bailee Madison (Once Upon a Time, Bridge to Terabithia) and Reader’s Choice Award Finalist Stefne Miller Features forbidden romance, intense action, and high-stakes sacrifice
Download or read book The Bridge Ladies written by Betsy Lerner and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2016-05-03 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fifty-year-old Bridge game provides an unexpected way to cross the generational divide between a daughter and her mother. Betsy Lerner takes us on a powerfully personal literary journey, where we learn a little about Bridge and a lot about life. After a lifetime defining herself in contrast to her mother’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” generation, Lerner finds herself back in her childhood home, not five miles from the mother she spent decades avoiding. When Roz needs help after surgery, it falls to Betsy to take care of her. She expected a week of tense civility; what she got instead were the Bridge Ladies. Impressed by their loyalty, she saw something her generation lacked. Facebook was great, but it wouldn’t deliver a pot roast. Tentatively at first, Betsy becomes a regular at her mother’s Monday Bridge club. Through her friendships with the ladies, she is finally able to face years of misunderstandings and family tragedy, the Bridge table becoming the common ground she and Roz never had. By turns darkly funny and deeply moving, The Bridge Ladies is the unforgettable story of a hard-won—but never-too-late—bond between mother and daughter.

Book excerpt: Leon Logothetis, host of the popular discovery+ series The Kindness Diaries and author of Go Be Kind, returns with a brand-new set of adventures and a brand-new call to action: Go Be Brave! Bravery goes far beyond running into burning buildings. It’s what makes us human and what allows us to connect with others. It’s the foundation of a truly magnificent life—if only we’re vulnerable enough to embrace it. In his travels across the world, Leon Logothetis—“The Kindness Guy”—has met some of the kindest people around. What he discovered along the way was that bravery wasn’t what he thought it was. True bravery means being kind, making connections, and tapping into the deep fearlessness that defines us as human beings. Now, in Go Be Brave, Leon shares 24 (and ¾) new adventures for a fearless, wiser, and truly magnificent life. Bravery is a choice—the choice to reconnect to our humanity—and it’s one we can make every single day. Go Be Brave is a simple concept and a simple journal that will strengthen your being-human muscle and remind you how brave you truly are. With Leon cheering you on, you will: Go on a treasure hunt to find your very own Bravery Buddy Build a strategy for love—to both offer and accept more of it Learn to say "yes" to adventure, and embrace saying "no" to things that don't serve you. Tackle your biggest fear—whether it’s spiders or having a difficult conversation with a loved one Bravely share your greatest dream with the world (or email it to Leon) Some of the adventures will be fun (ice cream sold separately), some will be serious, some will be hard, and a few will crack you up. But all of them will have the power to change your life, and the lives of those around you. So go out there, and #GoBeBrave.
Book Synopsis I Am Brave. I Am Strong. I Am Kind. by : Kristin Snow
Download or read book I Am Brave. I Am Strong. I Am Kind. written by Kristin Snow and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-01-04 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a lie trying to forge roots into the hearts of those of us that follow Jesus. This lie will steal our joy, ransack our hearts, and leave us bitter. We can hear the lie when someone denies the bravery that they hold as a child of God. We can see it when someone backs down from doing what God asks them to do. We can feel it when the strength it takes to be kind is fleeting. This lie can overwhelm us. It can keep us frozen in fear and make us walk away from doing what we know is right. This lie will keep us in the same spiritual place that we have been for the last ten years. Our enemy will whisper to us the lie that we are not brave, we are not strong, and we are not kind. But the truth that exists in God's word tells us something so very different and defeats every lie told to us. Through Jesus, we are brave enough to do anything He could ask us to do. We are strong enough to push through any fear and overcome. We are kind enough to show the overwhelmed person the love that was first shown to us. We have to learn how to overcome the enemy's lies about who he says we are and live in the chain-breaking truth about who God says we are! I think it's time that we learned to live this life as overcomers, victors, and redeemed children of God. We have to walk in His truth and learn to define ourselves by who God says we are! I am brave. I am strong. I am kind. So are you, child of God. Learn to live it!
Book Synopsis Heart of a Lamb Courage of a Lion by : Boab Curran
Download or read book Heart of a Lamb Courage of a Lion written by Boab Curran and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by first-time author Bob Curran, 'Heart of a Lamb Courage of a Lion' tells a heart-breaking story of the life of the writer from early years growing up in 60's Dundee to life as an acclaimed amateur fighter and Royal Engineer. Make no mistake; this is a very brave piece to have been written. Whilst many have penned autobiographies, I can think of none that have offered themselves so 'warts and all' as Curran. The Scotsman endured a brutal upbringing at the hands of a violent alcoholic father and suffered more of the same growing up attending tough Catholic schools. Beaten to a pulp by his Dad, teachers and school bullies on a regular basis, the tiny lad not only suffered physical hurt but deep emotional scars that remain to this very day. Around the horrendous treatment came the boxing bug as the bullied youngster joined a local boxing club aged seven and became instantly addicted. Boxing firstly out of the Camperdown ABC before joining the Lochee Boys club, the diminutive lad improved his confidence and well-being as a young fighter weighing not even seven stone (98lbs).There's a highly amusing tale about the young Curran whipping a well-known politician in his time at Lochee. Thirty years or so later the same politician would brag on 'Celebrity Big Brother' about boxing out of Lochee to the writer's obvious irritation. Already a handy fighter and 1970 Scottish youth champion, the teenage Curran enlisted in the Army aged 16 where his boxing career flourished, going 50-2 in his time there. The talented Curran would box the likes of (future pro British champion) George Feeney in a glittering forces career which saw him crowned British bantamweight champion in the 1973 NABC championships. At 18-years-old Bob was offered a pro contract by Dave Boy Green's manager Andy Smith but turned it down with hopes of winning the national ABA's and competing in the Olympics. Curran turned down the lucrative offer but, despite his obvious talent, never achieved either distinction and also never turned professional. Here is where the story really sours and the book starts becoming increasingly hard to read. You'll keep reading though as Bob suffers some spectacular mishaps.The Scottish soldier, still suffering low self-esteem issues and with an under-lying self-loathing, went completely off the rails following the break-up of his brief, and disastrous, first marriage. The marriage ended bitterly and further knocked the young man's spirits as he spiralled into depression. Eventually thrown out of the forces following a destructive episode in Cyprus, Curran was forced to regroup and face up to life away from his beloved 59 Independent Commando squadron. The role of an Army physical training instructor is one he had relished and loved before his marriage break-up. While the book details in depth Curran's days as a champion boxer and Royal Engineer, the remaining thirty-odd years are skipped through in minimal time. The former soldier turned to drugs and heavy drinking in the years after but cleaned up after finding religion. He got married again and had children but nothing is mentioned other than none wanted to be included in the biography. The former fighter was forced into early retirement in 1999 following a work accident left him with a serious back injury. It is an engrossing read which proves amusing, sincere and fascinating.The almost Jekyll-and-Hyde character of Curran leaps out of the pages as a well-intentioned, but emotionally scarred individual, who has an amazing knack of making a bad situation even worse (especially with his sometimes acid tongue). You will laugh and cry at the manner the story is told; very honest with no bravado. He remains however a man of sound morals despite his colourful life. Considering he has faced; a violent upbringing, paedophile attacks, messy relationships, life in the Army, all his amateur fights plus drugs and alcohol abuse, Bob must be commended by dealing with all of the above and never dodges any subject no matter how the situation may reflect him (on a few occasions diabolically so). In closing, a brutal read which deals with many subjects everyone could do with learning more about; especially post-traumatic stress disorder and issues with self-esteem. A highly entertaining book for all but the faint-hearted.
