Book Description
April Sinclair just wants what any normal thirteen-year-old would want: to disown her parents and obnoxious little sisters; to escape to summer camp ASAP with her two best friends, Billy and Brynn; and to make a good impression on Matt Parker, the hot new boy next door. Unfortunately, Matt witnesses April's utter humiliation at her birthday party. Then Billy kisses her. Just as April is trying to figure things out, her parents cancel her camp plans in lieu of a family RV trip. A summer of babysitting her sisters and "re-bonding" with her family isn't how she imagined life as a teenager. And it certainly won?t help her straighten out her feelings about Billy or Matt. Is there any silver lining to a road trip in The Clunker with her family of misfits?

Book Description
Turning lemons to lemonade means getting something sweet from life's sour moments. It's a statement of hope and a motto for the positive. If truly embraced, this idea of making the most of every experience can transform from an occasional habit into a way of life. From Lemons to Lemonade is Glenda Haskell's account of making positivity a lifestyle. This collection of honest and heartfelt stories captures Haskell's definitive effort to learn from life's trying moments and to pinpoint the thoughts and actions behind the good ones. Examining everyday incidents and encounters from her own lifetime, Haskell gleans profound lessons that can tend to escape anything but the closest scrutiny. From memories of the mundane-such as chipping a tooth and cross-country skiing-to recollections of deeply moving circumstances-such as valued friendship and the loss of a loved one-Haskell frames her experiences within seven interlocking themes of letting go, making choices, facing challenges, finding gratitude and compassion, creating good habits, practicing self-care, and developing a love for life. This inspirational collection of personal essays encourages readers to examine everything life has to offer, the good as well as the bad, to find the lessons tucked within.

Book Description
Jen Crow's transformation was triggered, quite literally, by a bolt of lightning. That jolt, which destroyed her home in a subsequent fire, forced her to consider what she really needed as she looked to rebuild her life. In Take What You Need Crow opens new perspectives for all of us looking to understand our past, our unexpected suffering, our failures, so we too can begin charting a course forward--one drawn from resilience and hope. We see with the immediacy of someone who nearly lost it all that our possessions won't carry us. Our responses to the regrets, losses, separations, addictions, and unexpected twists and turns of our lives are shaped by the spiritual values that sustain us and the people who support us. Crow invites us to explore the expected and unexpected turns our lives can take--and all the ways we can pay attention to what we truly need to survive the painful moments and live lives of meaning. Survival guide, spiritual companion, and a light in the dark, Take What You Need offers hope, humor, and real-life spiritual tools to meet the hardest moments of our lives.
