""Reading Ann&#8217;s book was like dipping my cup into a well of stories filled with the authentic trials and triumphs of motherhood.&#160; Thank you, Ann, for allowing the reader to peek beyond the veil of your experience so we can better appreciate our own.&#160; What an encouragement!""  -Jill Kelly, Mom, Speaker, Author of Without a Word   ""Ann Van De Water is an exceptional woman of God.&#160; Her outgoing and bubbly personality is infectious.&#160; She has a unique ability to relate to women of all ages.&#160; Her book is full of real-life anecdotes that will have you laughing one minute and tearing up the next.&#160; Ann knows what it is like to be a &#8220;real&#8221; mom and her audience will be blessed by her honesty and wisdom.""  -Michelle Borrello, Current Director of Preschool, Wesleyan Church of Hamburg  &#160;  ""There is nobody quite like Ann Van De Water.&#160; Her wonderful blend of humor, common sense and spiritual insight have made her beloved by many.&#160; No woman has loved her husband or children better.&#160; Her priorities of God, family and others have yielded beautiful fruit--in her own family and in many other couples and families.&#160; In these vignettes of her mothering&#160; experiences, she relates real life &#8220;in the trenches,&#8221; and she faces it all with teachability, tenderness, practicality and joy.

'Regulating Judicial Elections makes outstanding contributions to the scientific literature and the intense debate about electing judges in at least two ways: 1) by providing expertly drawn empirical evidence about the sometimes surprising effects of codes of judicial conduct on fundamental features of state supreme court elections, and 2) by advancing a more sophisticated and nuanced understanding of the traditional normative frames of judicial independence and accountability, including the potential for accountability to promote the rule of law. This exceptionally well crafted volume is a must-read for political scientists, legal scholars, and practitioners interested in elections and campaigns, judicial selection, and the impact of formal rules on practical politics.' - Melinda Gann Hall, Distinguished Professor, Michigan State University, Author of Attacking Judges: How Campaign Advertising Influences State Supreme Court Elections 
'Peters examines an important—and understudied—topic: the effect of state codes of conduct on judicial elections. Through impressive data collection and persuasive analysis, this book demonstrates that the rules designed to regulate how judges campaign do have some effects, both on the nature of the campaigns and electoral outcomes. This important book is likely to be influential among both scholars and policymakers.' - Chris W. Bonneau, Associate Professor of Political Science, University of Pittsburgh

"A down-to-earth approach to weight loss that begins with loving oneself.


	Even a cursory glance at bookstore shelves will reveal a glut of self-help and diet books, and it can be difficult for readers to wade through the
	competing theories. Kerkhoff, however, has discovered a new way to slim down, not by cutting out a particular food or exercising until you drop, but by
	listening to the real emotional needs beneath the cravings. Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis as a young woman, Kerkhoff became motivated to take care of
	herself by drawing emotional strength from the love of others and, eventually, her love for herself. The wisdom she's gleaned from her own experience may
	be useful to many, regardless of whether they're looking to lose weight. The first step in Kerkhoff's program is to become your "authentic" self by truly
	engaging with the world and your feelings at any given moment. Once you participate in the present moment, she says, you can form meaningful relationships.
	She recommends cultivating at least eight such relationships, which show you that you're worthy of love and have a right to be valued for who you are; they
	also teach you how to interpret others' behavior in new, less harmful ways. Other steps include retraining your brain to frame setbacks in a positive
	light, taking responsibility for your circumstances and setting a course of action to improve them, managing the fear of failure, and exercising your mind.
	What sets Kerkhoff's approach apart from others is her philosophy that the self responds best to love and gentleness, not criticism and hatred: "I don't
	want you to feel deprived; I want you to feel fulfilled. I don't want you to feel scared; I want you to feel confident. I don't want you to feel alone; I
	want you to always feel good in your own company. Because it matters. It is practice."


	A debut diet book with an effective method and a warm heart."

Downsize Your Body by Supersizing Your Mind & Heart

Turning Fat Into Love

"I think every dog owner talks to his pet, and I mean real talking, not the "oogy woogy uggams" kild of talking that just embarrasses the dog and makes him
	think his human is an idiot. And I think that at one time or another, every dog owner has wondered about, perhaps even speculated on what goes on behind
	those alert and compassionate eyes, maybe even interpreted one action or another for the benefit of human friends, but I think that few owners have
	actually gone as far as to speak for their dog. And if they did, I bet they got it wrong, trying to wrap canine intelligence with an ill-fitting wrapper of
	human sensibilities...neither accurate nor eloquent.




	In "Duffy's World," author Faith McCune speaks for Duffy, her black and white Australian Shepherd. She does so by constructing parallel narratives, one in
	which she tells us what she and her husband Bernard did and what events happened around them; in the other narrative, Duffy tells us what really happened.
	No one can truly evaluate Faith's accuracy in giving voice to Duffy (dogs will forever understand us better than we do them), but her eloquence in
	expressing Duffy's hopes, joys and fears is undeniable.




	If the author's primary goal were to shine a light on human foibles through Duffy's pithy observations we could easily call this satire, but I don't feel
	satirical commentary upon the human condition was the story's purpose, even though it does serve satire in equal portions. I think the main purpose of the
	book was to show how our lives become better when we share them with dogs, but to illustrate it by coming at it from the dog's point of view.




	The story works because Faith gives Duffy a unique point of view and a very distinctive voice, and does so without being condescending to either Duffy or
	the reader. After a while, the reader begins to accept Duffy's viewpoints and explanations over those of the human narrator. He just seems to make more
	sense most of the time.




	This book is the story of Duffy's life, beginning to end, and more. He is ever optimistic that he will one day teach his owners to be good dogs, even
	though at times they seem rather dim, if good intentioned. Much of the humor in Duffy's story derives from his inability to make total sense of human
	speech and manners. He is perpetually confused by homophones (Why do they take him to the vet to get his weight when he can wait anywhere?), as well as
	concepts of time and space (five minutes is forever, and Hawaii is really far away, probably more than ten blocks). Human vocabulary also throws Duffy for
	a loop -- the human call the house grass a car pet; they say there is also carpet in the Car (which Duffy names Trouble), but the Car Pet never speaks, and
	why does the Car need a Pet anyway? Duffy lives in a world of yard spoons, Broom Monsters, string toys, mail both bad and good, his stupid sister (a cat),
	big brown two-toed dogs (deer) who never come close, stinky dogs (coyotes), and a host of human and animal characters who don't seem to realize he is the
	king of his estate and will do anything to protect it.




	"Duffy's World" is a story that grips the reader intellectually and emotionally. Though it often descends into a morass or sentimentality, there is never
	anything mawkish about it. It is not the author who grips our emotions, but Duffy, and the sentimentality we feel is due to our affection for this affable
	and lovable character, and that affection swells the more we learn about Duffy. By the time you reach the end of the book, you find yourself so emotionally
	invested in Duffy you don't want to let go -- be sure to have a box of tissues handy.




	The book does serve a practical side to it. In taking Duffy into their home, his owners made just about every mistake possible, and the author includes
	numerous sidebars about the right way to choose a puppy, the best ways to raise and train a dog, as well as numerous health and safety tips. But the real
	reason to get this book is to meet Duffy...like all the dogs you have ever owned, he will never leave you."
