Paperback. Condizione: Good. When Laura Pratt's long-distance partner of six years tells her 'it's over' at a busy downtown train station, she is sent reeling, the breakup having come out of the blue. Her partner, meanwhile, closes himself off, refusing to acknowledge Laura and her requests for explanation. In the following days, months, and then years, Laura struggles to make sense of this loss, alone and filled with questions. She mourns him and takes comfort in whatever reassurances she imagines the universe is sending her, and in identifying value for her ordeal under every rock she flips. Here, Laura bares her soul as she brings alive the ups and downs of heartbreak - the recalled highs of when the relationship was in full, mutual bloom, and the long-time lows of her solitary vigil for Sam. Seeking to understand this freefall and how so many before her survived it, she draws on forces across time and form and uncovers literary, philosophical, scientific, and psychological accounts of how we human beings fall in love in the first place, and why, when it ends, some of us take longer to get over it, or never do. Effortlessly, Laura Pratt weaves this background of cultural history with her own bracing story of heartbreak and loss, and offers the heartbroken some solace in the common experience. Imbued with Laura's longing, erudition, and hard-earned wisdom, Heartbroken dares to delve into this most universal of mortal ordeals perhaps the one that makes us the most human of all.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Charles Pratt grew up in a rural Tennessee farm family that taught him the values of working hard, while treating all people with respect. Honesty and integrity were the standard that he adopted from his parents. He came to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ just before entering college. He accepted the great challenge as the first person in his family to attend college by receiving a high school scholarship.His life has been constantly driven with a passion to make a difference in the world and his family. Charles's first full-time job after college was a high school teacher and boys basketball coach. He met the love of his life, Linda at a Gospel Crusade when the audience was asked to shake hands with those around them. Charles shook Linda's hand and did not want to let go. They married about 2 years later and celebrated 50 years of marriage in 2019. While serving as a high school teacher, Charles began to venture into the business world on a part-time basis. Later he went full time into business in Paris, Tennessee, where he helped start 2 very successful businesses within a short period of time. At a young age, Charles became a very excited Bible teacher for a Young Couples class in his church, while leading many to faith in Jesus. The Spirit of the Lord used Charles in his home church, but soon he sensed another calling upon his life for full time ministry. He quickly sold his business interests and moved to New Orleans, Louisiana to pursue studies at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary in preparation for a new beginning. After completing two seminary degrees, the author pastored different size churches, but has become a denominational servant. His passion is stronger than ever to preach and to teach the Word, while preaching in dozens of nations on 5 continents. Charles has taken hundreds of volunteers to serve in dozens of Third World Nations in the past 30 years, sharing the love of Jesus with poor people.In addition to his mission work, the author delights in speaking in churches wherever he receives an invitation, large or small.

He has made an early morning study habit of reading through the Bible every year for over forty years. He declares that this fuels his passion with a fresh message from the Lord Jesus, his personal Hero.Charles Pratt, D.Min.…

Hardback. Condizione: Good. This gorgeous book was written by a 14 year-old environmentalist in 1992 who was able to inspire a whole generation of children about one of our planet's most precious and fragile realms. It will continue to teach the next generation about the beauty and value of the rainforest. Young readers are guided through the alphabet as they engage in fun alliterations about many of the animals one encounters in the rainforest. Following XYZ the Ant, children learn about anteaters, macaws, quetzals and many other inhabitants of the rainforest. Large text with content for younger readers and smaller text with content for more advanced readers allows for classroom scaffolding and the ability to reach a larger age range. Kristin Joy Pratt-Serafini once again successfully inspires many children to become invested in our rainforest.…

Beginning with the big picture;' the book moves through progressively more and more intimate views until we feel we can hold the stars in our hands, from which we can then throw them back to the sky to see our place among them. The book opens with a summary of the event that created our Universe, the Big Bang, and then goes on to describe the natures of the Big Bang's progeny, the stars-what they are, how they shine, and how they can live such immensely long lives. Approaching horne, it next examines the measures of the stars: where they are, how they are collected together from pairs to galaxies of billions, and how we learn of their individual properties. Yet closer, we look in depth at the Sun and at the physical differences among the stars, at the immense range of properties they possess. Finally, arriving at Earth, we see the signif- icance of the stars to human life, how we have used them to tell our stories and to find where we are in both space and time. v From this base, the book looks more closely at stellar details, concentrating on temporal phenomena-on stellar change-and on the observational base that helps set the stage for the theory that links them all together.
