This book is specifically about two of my children, Autumn Claire (Claybrook) Kriofske, Seattle; (Autumn in the book) and, Don Claybrook, Jr., Stallion Springs, California (Donny in the book), where he lives with my daughter-in-law, his wife, Becky. In addition to these two, the book is dedicated to all four of my children. That also includes Landa Patrice (Claybrook) Boutte, Corpus Christi, Texas, where she lives with my grandson, Jimmy John Bowman, and Liberty Jackson Claybrook-Reyes, aka, "Jack," who lives in Kerrville Texas with my son-in-law, her husband, Michael Reyes.

The authors upbringing in the Baptist tradition and the inculcation of that tradition in him by a Baptist preacher father, resulted in major conflicts in his life, particularly the traditions shortcomings off which Claybrook bounces his ideas. The novel touches bases with theologians from the likes of Mark Twain to Claybrooks teacher, Jrgen Moltmann, the worlds foremost Protestant theologian (Church Times), to philosophers as disparate as Blaise Pascal (also a mathematician), Socrates, and Shakespeare. Poetry has been used to reinforce his philosophy and heart-felt emotions. All the poetry contained herein is the authors.

Dr. Wicker has developed a unique approach to goal setting that is applicable for everyone. Goal setting is a powerful process for thinking about changing or developing your future. This book includes real-life examples and applicable work exercises to utilize when setting goals. The process of setting goals helps you choose where you want to go in life. By knowing precisely what you want to achieve, you know where you have to concentrate your efforts. This book also uncovers 5 important reasons why people need to establish goals: 1. Goals guide and direct behavior. 2. Goals provide challenges. 3. Goals justify the performance. 4. Goals define the basis for strategy. 5. Goals serve an organizing function. Finally, the goal setting book can be summarized by utilizing the (C+G=S) philosophy. (Confidence + Goals = Success) The C + G = S philosophy tells us that goals are defined as a desired pattern or action that lead to specific successful results. C + G = S also tells us that goals need to be planned. Goals cannot begin by themselves, which is how the C + G = S philosophy started. Research has determined that confidence and planning were key factors in goal-setting techniques. The word confidence, as defined by Webster's Dictionary, is the belief in one's own ability. Success is defined as a favorable result-the gaining of wealth, fame, and accomplishments. The definitions listed in Webster's Dictionary of each key word helped develop the acronym: C + G = S

This book is written to enhance the possibilities of uncovering new ways to teach reading. This book, is addressing how teachers, college professors, community leaders, community business owners, officials and parent's should encourage and challenge their local school and local board of education to utilize the absolute best methods available to teach our children how to read. In the United States alone our children are completing Kindergarten, 1st, 2nd Grade and some even 3rd Grade, and these children are not able to read. Parents are expected to present inquiries to their child's teachers, school officials, and educational experts to design a learning method to improve our current system of teaching reading. The message, research and the structure of this book was written to encourage all parents, educators and school officials to think about "What If" there was a better and more effective way to teach a child how to read? Would you take on that challenge of giving a child the "Gift" of learning how to read? No matter the cost! Do you spend your days working with students who struggle to comprehend reading in literacy and content classes? Are you looking for a better way to establish comprehensive literacy of instruction in your school, classroom or home so all students receive support in becoming a competent and confident reader? Hopefully, some readers will have more use for the practical strategies and/or perhaps some educators will want to have this book for their classroom and personal use.

Ja, narret blev den, men måske gjorde det ikke så meget for det var et stort jordbær, og musen ser nu ret tilfreds ud – og det er jo fint at kunne dele ...
