You May Not Know It By: Sheree Huppunen You May Not Know It is a story told by a western flying squirrel named Ariel. It blends entertainment and education, providing the reader with information about them, their nature, and how to create a habitat for them to aid in their conservation.
In these pages, author and caregiver Sheree May shares both the joys and struggles of caring for a loved one diagnosed with Alzheimer's. May stumbled upon an inspirational place called Celebrate Recovery. There she found the value in taking all her troubles to God. Afterward, she was led from a place of pain through a world of pandemic to a place of healing. There, May discovered her independence and self-worth. She could now give her mother the attention and care that she needed. May knew her mother more than anyone else besides God, which gave her the ability to retrieve a lifetime of memories the two of them had made. Their close relationship enabled her to turn "the long goodbye" into a million fifteen-minute reruns of joy! Here you will explore all the magic a caregiver can give through the grace of God!
In A Dose of Madness, Sheree shows her resilience and determination to live. My mother has battled this unfamiliar disease for over thirty years, and she never gave up. What I love about my stepdad is the fact that he never left her side no matter how difficult life sometimes became throughout their marriage. While growing up, I did not have a relationship with my mother, but I knew that she was trying to finish college so that she could make a better life for the both of us. One thing that she taught me was how important an education is. The relationship that we now have, I wouldn't change for anything in the world. She is the hardest working person I know--dedicated, fearless, and generous. I love her to the moon and back. From her one and only daughter, Christie Eve Dale

An argument that voter anger and authoritarian political attitudes can be traced to the displacement of anger, fear, and helplessness. Politicians routinely amplify and misdirect voters' anger and resentment to win their support. Opportunistic candidates encourage supporters to direct their anger toward Mexicans, Muslims, women, protestors, and others, rather than the true socioeconomic causes of their discontent. This book offers a compelling and novel explanation for political anger and the roots of authoritarian political attitudes. In Raised to Rage, Michael Milburn and Sheree Conrad connect vociferous opposition to immigrants, welfare, and abortion to the displacement of anger, fear, and helplessness. These emotions may be triggered by real economic and social instability, but Milburn and Conrad's research shows that the original source is in childhood brutalization or some other emotional trauma. Their research also shows that frequent experiences of physical punishment in childhood increase support in adulthood for punitive public policies, distorting the political process. Originally published in 1996, reprinted now with a new introduction by the authors that updates the empirical evidence and connects it to the current political situation, this book offers a timely consideration of a paradox in American politics: why voters are convinced by campaign rhetoric, exaggeration, and scapegoating to vote against their own interests.
Sailor Girl is both coming-of-age tale and love poem to the natural world. Set on the cargo boats of Canada’s Great Lakes in the summer of 1981, it follows the literal and figurative journey of Kate McLeod, a rebellious photography student looking to earn money for school. Using tight, salty dialogue and gripping description, the book renders a sharp-edged portrait of life literally lived on the edges of society. It is also a love story, in which a middle-class girl finds a deep connection with the unruly young men and toughminded women of the lakes. Life on the water is both brutally physical and socially restrictive, and Kate kicks against the rules, both written and unwritten. A female riff on such classics as Two Years Before the Mast and Malcolm Lowry’s Ultramarine, Sailor Girl is also a uniquely Canadian story, one that distills a vanishing part of our heritage.
