Paperback. Condición: Very Good. "Kilee's spirit shines through her every word. Beautiful Scars is a down-to-earth primer on how to let our hearts define us, not our scars." -- J.R. Martinez, Actor, U.S. Army veteran, bestselling author, and burn survivor A moment can change everything . Kilee Brookbank was a typical sixteen-year-old, but her last ordinary day erupted in an explosion that consumed her house, burning forty-five percent of her body and sending her to the brink of death. After thirty-eight days of surgeries, skin grafts, physical therapy, and excruciating pain, Kilee had to discover how to live again. With unwavering support from her mom, Lori, and the rest of her family, Kilee faced her journey with determination, strength, and a positive attitude that inspired not only her community, but people around the world. Told together by Kilee and Lori, Beautiful Scars is a story of recovery, healing, and hope, reminding us all that we're never powerless, never alone, and that each challenge we face helps make us the people we are meant to be. Now a thriving college student, Kilee has become an author, advocate, and philanthropist focused on helping other young burn survivors and their families. She has met with individual survivors and their parents and spoken to school groups, burn camps and civic organizations across the country. Her charity, the Kilee Gives Back Foundation, has raised more than $300,000 for Shriners Hospitals for Children-Cincinnati, and Kilee has partnered with Shriners Hospitals to promote its national Be Burn Aware campaign. . It's what you do with each moment that defines you. A portion of the proceeds from sales of Beautiful Scars: A Life Redefined will benefit Shriners Hospitals for Children-Cincinnati.

Hardback. Condición: Very Good. Digger Highlander was an everyday, average Chorkie, a cute little dog who loved his family and had a particular fondness for playing in the yard. But one day, when he was at home with his human sister, Kilee, Digger smelled a funny odor and then heard a loud boom! Confused at first, he quickly realized Kilee was in trouble. There had been a gas leak in the house, and the candle Kilee lit had started a fire. Kilee lay on the bathroom floor, unconscious and covered in burns. That's when Digger sprang into action. He raced to the bathroom and barked so loudly that he roused Kilee before leading her running from the house, leaving behind the deadly flames. Kilee spent thirty-eight days recovering in a hospital, and when she returned home, Digger stayed by her side as she faced a difficult recovery. Today, years after the fire, Digger remains Kilee's best friend and protector--a genuine hero who just happens to wear fur. Digger the Hero Dog is a true story of the bond between humans and their pets with a happy ending and an important fire-safety message for children. Just as Digger did, kids will learn that even the littlest among them can make a huge difference in the life of a friend. Benito, Lucia (ilustrador).…

Paperback. Condición: Good. ". Insights from a time when a young person with autism grew up in a world where nobody understood them!" - Temple Grandin, author, Thinking in Pictures "An extraordinary look at autism from the inside - by turns heartbreaking, uplifting, illuminating, witty, and wise." - Steve Silberman, author, NeuroTribes: The Legacy of Autism and the Future of Neurodiversity Barbara Moran has never known how to be good. As a child, she made strange noises, fidgeted constantly, and licked her lips until they cracked. She had "upsets" that embarrassed and frustrated her family. Worse still, she developed friendships with inanimate objects--everything from roller skates to tables to an antique refrigerator--and became obsessed with images of cathedrals. She was institutionalized, analyzed, and marginalized, cast aside as not trying hard enough to fit in. But after almost forty years, Barbara was given an answer for her inability to be like, and to connect with, other people: autism. Hello, Stranger is the story of a misunderstood life that serves as an eye-opening call for compassion. Bracingly honest, Barbara describes the profound loneliness of being abandoned and judged while also expressing her deep yearning simply to be loved and to give love. Hello, Stranger is a challenge to every reader to see the beauty and the humanity present in every individual. …

Paperback. Condición: Good. "Some true stories move us. Pamela's story changes us." -- Dale S. Recinella, Chaplain for Florida's Death Row and author of Now I Walk on Death Row Pamela Perillo was set to die on March 24, 1996. Convicted of capital murder in 1980, Pamela sat on Texas's Death Row awaiting lethal injection. But less than two days before her scheduled execution, she was given a second chance, and in 2000, she was resentenced: from death to life in prison with the possibility of parole. Her first chance at new life had come shortly after her arrest, when Pamela embraced the Christian faith and began bringing her fellow inmates to redemption in Christ. That's why although Pamela's story is one of imprisonment--first by abuse and addiction and ultimately behind the locked doors of the criminal justice system--it's also a story of hope--of finding a new path in faith, of taking courage from the promise of salvation, and of praying for parole after decades of incarceration. Salvation on Death Row combines true-crime reporting with a powerful spiritual memoir, reminding us that every life is a journey, every person is capable of change, and every individual can make a positive impact on the world. The author's proceeds from Salvation on Death Row will benefit Patriot PAWS service dogs.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. Joey Mullaney was only thirteen years old when he found out he was dying. A rare degenerative disease would rob him of his ability to play sports. It would slur his speech and crash his confidence. It would even confine him to a motorized scooter as a teenager. In this true story about his life so far, Joey reveals how he came to terms with the unthinkable. Teens and young adults will see pieces of themselves and their experiences in Joey's journey of acceptance. And they'll laugh along with Joey as he stutters and stumbles his way to discovering his true identity and finding his place in the world. Stare at Me is more than an inspirational memoir. It's the voice of a trusted friend that empowers every reader -- the geek, the misfit, the introvert, the class president, the jock -- to stare down whatever faces them and say, "I got this.".…
