Divorce affects everyone in a family that was once united. Parents deal through lawyers. Siblings have each other and grandparents watch silently as legal and often painful proceedings take their course.'Dear Jake' a follow up to our first book, 'Dear Sammie' is an illustrated letter to a granddaughter from her grandmother. The book has received an outstanding and pleasantly surprising reception. Countless readers, grandparents, children and parents have expressed their gratitude followed by wondering why nothing like it had previously been published. Then came the inevitable question. What about a book for a grandson? Grandpa also needs to let his grandchild know he cares, that he is there for him, even if he lives far away. He doesn't want to interfere, he doesn't want to take sides, but he also doesn't want to stay silent. 'Dear Jake' expresses heartfelt emotions with simple words and whimsical drawings that take the readers on a fun filled, meaningful outing with Grandpa. These books come out of a collaborative family effort motivated by love and concern for all children. Together with my daughter and a dear family friend who created the remarkable illustrations, we confront the collateral damage which is inescapable in any divorce.

Jake takes place during one of the single most powerfully shaping times in a person's lifesecondary education. Through the metaphor of the utopian and fictitious St. Stephen's Episcopal School, author Arch Montgomery shows us how our humanity can only be fully realized through other humans. The book depicts three deaths and one near-fatal disease while simultaneously tracking the rebirth of Jake, the titular and main character. He moves from a transparent only-good-as-I-have-to-be mentality to a lifestyle of excellence and three-dimensionality with the help of his school, which is personified through the characters of Mary White, rector; George Meader, teacher; and Joel Kohn, student. Jake presents both Montgomery's view of public school systems (which Jake, without a drop of nostalgia, refers to as out in the county) and his view of an ideal school, which, in this case, comes in the form of an independent school, though the tenets that make it so admirable could be applied to almost any schoolpublic, independent, parochial, or otherwise. Mixing real-world models with an informed idealism, Montgomery creates St.Stephen's in order to demonstrate the most positive influence a school can have on one person. On the flipside of that coin, however, remain numerous questions about what kind of negative effects sub-par schools can have on their students. While St. Stephen's gives its students a three-dimensional educationmind (academics), body (athletics), and spirit (chapel and community ervice)do public schools scratch the surface of even just one dimension? While Mary White, the head of St. Stephen's, plays roles as varied as disciplinarian, spiritual leader, and friend, in what light do most public school students view their own principals? While the educational events of the highest consequence happen to Jake outside the classroom, how many public school students interact with their classmates, teachers, or administration beyond a school setting? On a continuum of education qualitysatisfactory, good, great, excellent, idealwhere does St. Stephen's fall? Where does the school you went to, or your children go to, fall? These and many other questions arise in Jake, and beg to be discussed, because once problems are recognized, they can begin to get solved.

The future holds many unknowns: advances in medical technology, increased airport security and critical new inventions like sentient, polygraph-enabled, wireless toasters. Luckily, Maclean’s columnist Scott Feschuk has written a survival guide—part how-to manual, part product guide, part apocalypse analysis and part sardonic observation—to help us navigate these troubled times. Or at least make us laugh while we try. The Future and Why We Should Avoid It envisions the daunting, depressing era we have to look forward to with the best of Feschuk’s musings on aging, death, technology, inventions, health and leisure. Combining quizzes, voiceovers and speeches, and employing snark, innuendo, toilet humor and shameless mockery—because how else do you cope with the fact that one day you will die?—Feschuk contemplates the fate of humanity and the planet in the upcoming years, poking fun, provoking thought and dredging up silver linings in even the darkest forecasts.

A time travel Civil War romance from the award-winning author: “Combining intriguing paranormal elements is Ms. Weyrich’s forte and this is no exception” (Romantic Times). The grand plantation of Swan’s Quarter still echoes with memories of another time. It is there that Ginna Jones meets Neal Frazier, a recovering plane crash survivor. Young and handsome, but disturbingly familiar, Ginna is instantly drawn to this mysterious man. When a walk in the garden sends the pair spiraling back through the veils of time, their fates become entwined with those of two young lovers separated by the Civil War. Plunged into another century, Ginna and Neal will discover destinies still waiting to be fulfilled, and a flame of passion that not even the passage of time can extinguish.
