Second-Hand Dog: How to Turn Yours into a First-Rate Pet (Howell reference books)
Praise for Second-Hand Dog "At long last, the book all animal shelters have been waiting for is here: Carol Lea Benjamin's Second-Hand Dog." —Sue Sternberg ASPCA Report "...goes right to the heart of what it's all about..." —Barbara Dyer, Director Mt. Pleasant Animal Shelter "Benjamin writes with love and sensitivity about caring for pets 'adopted' from a shelter." —Publishers Weekly "...a solid training program...a great book." —Job Michael Evans, Dog Fancy "Why a book like this has never before been written is beyond me. It is an invaluable guide to rehabilitating those myriad unfortunate dogs which have either never had a home or have been shuttled from one owner to another, losing confidence, trust and self-esteem every step of the way. It is an absolute must for every owner who wants his second-hand dog to regain the ability to become the warm, loving companion every dog should be." —Kenneth A. Marden President, The American Kennel Club "...Carol Lea Benjamin has written a witty, sound and thoroughly appropriate book on the extraordinary advantages that each of us who has second-hand pets knows first-hand. If you're thinking about sharing your life with a pet or with another pet, read this book first!" —John F. Kullberg President ASPCA.

The Law School Breakthrough: Graduate In The Top 10% Of Your Class, Even If You're Not A First-Rate Student
After doing very poorly on his law school entrance exam and almost dropping out during his first year as a law student, Chris Yianilos went on to graduate in the top 10 percent of his class. The Law School Breakthrough shows exactly how he did it-and how you can, too. Three years in law school convinced Chris that he could write the only book a budding lawyer needs before his LSAT entrance exam. The Law School Breakthrough can show even the most average student how to triumph over all the barriers to law school success-a crushing workload; the single winner-take-all exam system; the arrogance of most law school professors; the fierce, sometimes hysterical, competition from classmates. The Law School Breakthrough provides a comprehensive, holistic approach to surviving law school-both inside and outside the classroom. It contains proven techniques for overcoming every obstacle students are likely to face during the three most challenging years of their lives..

A First-Rate Tragedy: Robert Falcon Scott and the Race to the South Pole
On November 12, 1912, a rescue party trekking across Antarctica's Great Ice Barrier found what they had set out to find: the snow-covered tent of the British explorer Robert Falcon Scott. Inside, they made a grim discovery: Scott's frozen body lying between the bodies of two fellow explorers. The remaining two members of the party were nowhere in sight, but Scott's eloquent diary soon revealed their fate. They, like the others, had perished in nightmarish circumstances after successfully reaching the South Pole. The elusive character of Scott, in whom incredible courage was fatally matched by self-doubt and miscalculation, continues to haunt the popular imagination. His story--and that of the other four men on his final expedition--has never been told more grippingly or with greater compassion than it is in this book..

Piggyback Rides and Slippery Slides - How to have fun raising first-rate children
We are busy. Our children: busy. Our grandchildren: busy. We are busy providing our offspring with comfort, experience, and social and academic skills - and yet many parents still fail to provide their children with the most important asset of all: play. Piggyback Rides and Slippery Slides calls for loving caregivers everywhere to improve the well-being of children through the simple art of play. As you create memories with your children, you will provide them with the skills they need to succeed in life - skills like empathy, problem solving, impulse regulation, assertiveness, and creativity. As research demonstrates, children who have learned how to play are better prepared academically, socially, and emotionally than their busier, "more accomplished" peers. And as you spend time playing with your children, you will discover that spending time together is the magic ingredient to trust, even if that time is spent just feeding ducks, flying a kite, or enjoying blueberry pancakes on a lazy Saturday morning. Lynnae W. Allred received her BA in humanities from Brigham Young University. For the past twenty years, her career has been motherhood. She and her husband, Garth, have five children. She has served in local and council PTA leadership positions, and received the District Award of Merit for her service to the Boy Scouts of America. Her volunteer work with children also includes many years of service in ecclesiastical assignments for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, where she recently served as Stake Primary president (the Church's auxiliary organization for children)..
