For readers who have a dream, want a dream,
or have lost a dream, this trailblazing self-manage-
ment tool masterfully weaves together technology,
real-life stories, self-reflection, and solid principles in
order to steer dreaming into doing. The book is in-
teractive and innovative, including exercises at the
end of each chapter, extensive resources to help
the dreams continue, and QR codes for readers to
scan to view additional video segments. Based on
a spoken message series called Imagine, which
was addressed to the congregation at the Cathe-
dral of Faith in San Jose, California, Pastor Ken Fore-
man realized the hunger people have to discover
God’s dream for their own lives and to live them
out; this book is the roadmap to accomplishing that
goal. Inspiring others to dream big with unimagin-
able results—in their personal lives, professional
lives, and in their communities—the book takes
readers on a journey as individualized as them-
selves with beautifully pragmatic instruction,
acknowledging the many obstacles and pitfalls
that may impede one’s vision. Once readers under-
stand that pitfalls are part of the journey, and not
just a hindrance, the dream continues.

Imagine Living Your Dream

Major lifestyle changes are almost always
prompted by a “wellness wake-up call” that comes
in one form or another. The idea behind this book
is that wellness wake-up calls don’t have to be
organic moments inspired, perhaps, by an upcom-
ing class reunion. They can be intentional. With few
exceptions, the human body is a self-healing
organism that would function perfectly when
given the things it needs, such as nutrition, exer-
cise, and social and spiritual food. Most of the time,
however, life gets in the way. The good news is
that everyone has the chance to make right with
physical, emotional, and spiritual needs and to live
in a way that allows the body to function better.
For those headed in the wrong direction, inaction
is a choice. Reversing downward spirals to get life
back on track requires each person to make a
choice to live differently. The scenarios presented
at the beginning of each chapter in the book act
as simple barometers to reveal one’s level of well-
ness or highlight potential problems in specific well-
ness areas—from diet to flexibility, to spirituality
and beyond. The results of each scenario intend

Certain to launch a quilting revolution, this instruc-
tional guide by award-winning art quilter Jane
Sassaman uses vibrant color photos and detailed,
easy-to-follow recipes to walk readers through her
innovative process of selecting and combining
colors and prints. Based on basic blocks and mini-
mal piecing, she transforms personality prints into
graphically bold quilt masterpieces. Everybody
from beginning stitcher to advanced quilter can
create these dazzling quilt designs, as the author
goes from easy whole-cloth quilts to more intricate-
looking, yet easy-to-make, quilts. The book includes
20 years of Sassaman’s work and exercises for
making nature-inspired quilts. Sassaman takes two
fabrics and a few simple shapes and turns them
into extraordinary quilts, where the shapes lose their
definition, seams disappear, and motifs dissolve into
one another. This is the essence of Sassaman style.

Her art quilts have been shown in many national

Verbal Math Lesson series
Michael Levin, MD, and Charan Langton, MS
Everyone thinks kids hate math. But the truth is, kids don’t hate math—they hate worksheets!
Writing down equations takes fine motor skills that young children haven’t yet developed, making
the process of learning math difficult and tedious. Math done mentally, or verbal math, makes
math fun. Children see math problems as a game and a challenge. In the second editions
of these pioneering educational bestsellers, handwriting is removed from math problems to help
children cement fundamental mathematical skills so that they may solve problems without having
to do any writing at all. Developed as a supplement to traditional math education, the lessons are
completely comprehensive, step-by-step, and leave no area undone.
Michael Levin, MD, is a physician specializing in behavioral and learning problems in young children.
Charan Langton, MS, is an engineer. She writes a blog at www.complextoreal.com. They are the
authors of Big Words for Little Kids and The Reading Lesson. They both live in San Ramon, California.
