Welcome to Eudora
by Mimi TheboEudora, a small town in the middle of wheat, oil, and cattle country, is on the verge of extinction. And Lottie Dougal, the local stationer with a healing touch, may be the only one who can bring the community back together–if she doesn’t destroy it first. In a town like Eudora, where everyone knows you from birth to death, it takes a brave woman to color her hair. Since returning to Eudora from a stint in the big city, Lottie Dougal has streaked hers until her aubu`rn curls glow as bright as the neon sign at Chuck’s Beer and Bowl. Clearly, the woman is one of life’s risk takers. So when the town’s new doctor (and the object of Lottie’s affections) fails to produce the anticipated ring at the Snow Ball, rumor has it that Lottie is consulting Herbal Cures and Curses . . . for a spell. But love potions, like good intentions, can backfire. Dr. Emery does indeed take a bride, but one who hails from a city far from Eudora’s main street. As if the arrival of this temptress and Lottie’s broken heart aren’t enough to keep Eudorans clucking and plotting, the town has its own share of growing pains. The quarry is in financial ruin and the mayoral election unearths long-buried racial friction. An unprecedented drama unfolds–which, naturally and often quite comically, reverberates through the lives of the residents trying to save their livelihoods and the future of the town. As for Lottie and the good doctor, well, Eudora has a plan of its own. . . . From the Trade Paperback edition.
Welcome to Fatherhood.: Real Talk.
by Dave TakisakiFatherhood is a lifelong journey that twists and turns, has its ups and downs, like a long country road. Nothing quite prepares you for the start of the fatherhood journey, there is no map. However, we can learn from other who have traveled down that same unpredictable road. The book “Welcome to Fatherhood. Real Talk.” is an introduction to fatherhood for new dads who are in the whirlwind of fatherhood. The author taps into his past as a new father and unearths the valuable lessons every new dad should know. The book is designed to be real and raw; including funny stories from the author and invaluable scripture from the Bible. Excerpt“Having children is a very sanctifying and humbling process and there will be many laughs, tears, and hair pulling moments throughout the years. But that is how memories are made, through the ups and downs in life. We wouldn’t savor the sweet times of gathering around a campfire roasting mallows with your kids without the trying times of raising them up from newborns. Just like a sports team and the process they have to undergo, they can’t just step on to a field against another great team and expect to win. They must go through the blood, sweat and tears of practice and have the patience and belief that the process will work.”Fathers have a major responsibility in life, just as Proverbs 22:6 says, “Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it” (ESV). Not only are we called to husbands and dads, we are also called to be ministers to our children and speaking truth into their life. The book “Welcome to Fatherhood. Real Talk.” will walk through the many different hats a father must wear and the many different plates he must keep spinning. This book will also give new fathers a few practical concepts, or “life hacks”, to help make life just a little bit easier

Welcome to the Departure Lounge
by Meg FedericoA fresh, funny new voice, Meg Federico showcases her keen eye for the absurd in this poignant, hilarious, and timely account of one daughter’s tumultuous journey caring for her aging parents. When Meg Federico’s eighty-year-old mother and newly minted step-father were forced to accept full-time home care, she imagined them settling into a Norman-Rockwellian life of docile dependency. With a family of her own and a full time career in Nova Scotia – a thousand miles away from her parents – Federico hoped they would be able to take care of themselves for the most part, and call on their children when they really needed them – but of course that’s not quite what happens. As she watches with horror from the sidelines, Federico’s parents turn into terrible teens. Fighting off onslaughts of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, Addie and Walter, forbidden by doctors to drink, conspire to order cases of scotch by phone; Addie’s attendant accuses the evening staff of midnight voodoo; Walter’s inhibitions decline as dementia increases and mail-order sex aides arrive at the front door. The list of absurdities goes on and on as Federico tries to take some control over her parents’ lives – and her own. This is a story for the huge generation – nearly 76 million people – now dealing with the care of their parents. You’ll laugh and cry as you read this powerful and important debut.
