Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This account of six families whose children were wrongly seized by child protection services vividly illustrates the constitutional balancing act where medicine, family interests, and child safety can clash. They Took the Kids Last Night shows a rarely exposed side of America's contemporary struggle to address child abuse, telling the stories of loving families who were almost destroyed by false allegations—readily accepted by caseworkers, doctors, the media, and, too often, the courts. Each of the six wrongly accused families profiled in this book faced an epic and life-changing battle when child protection caseworkers came to their homes to take their kids. In each case, a child had an injury whose cause was unknown; it could have been due to an accident, a medical condition, or abuse. Each family ultimately exonerated itself and restored its family life, but still bears scars from the experience that will never disappear. The book tells why and how the child protection system failed these families. It also examines the larger flaws in our country's child protection safety net that is supposed to sort out the innocent from the guilty in order to protect children.

Book excerpt: Grow your heart three sizes and get in on all of the Grinch-mas cheer with this Christmas classic--the ultimate Dr. Seuss holiday book that no collection is complete without! Every Who down in Who-ville liked Christmas a lot . . . but the Grinch, who lived just north of Who-ville, did NOT! Not since "'Twas the night before Christmas" has the beginning of a Christmas tale been so instantly recognizable. This heartwarming story about the effects of the Christmas spirit will grow even the coldest and smallest of hearts. Like mistletoe, candy canes, and caroling, the Grinch is a mainstay of the holidays, and his story is the perfect gift for readers young and old. "Irrepressible and irresistible." --Kirkus Reviews

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Must Adventure Disappear From Your Life As Children Enter?Not At All!It Can Be The Best Learning Experience Your Family Will Ever Encounter!Doug Woodward and Trish Severin have spent three decades introducing their children to the value of living at ease in the wilds of nature, as well as learning lessons from people who live much simpler lives than do most of us in the United States.Tales of many of their adventures recounted here will give you the sense of why they would take their children, almost from birth, into these different worlds.And what makes this book so unique is the span of time that it covers. It doesn't end with late childhood or even early teens, but follows each child from her or his earliest years all the way into adulthood, giving a glimpse of just who that child has become, letting you judge for yourself whether the philosophy of these parents was beneficial.Should you be gripped by an irresistible urge to follow any of these paths yourself, the last section of the book outlines how you can prepare for each type of adventure, including a list of essentials to help your own experience be one which will have your children asking for more.
