Wesley is a little boy with a fun and colorful story. He was born with spina bifida. He can move his arms and hands, but he cannot stand on his legs, so he has always been in a wheelchair. He likes to say, "I'm Wesley, and I spend my life on wheels!" In some ways Wesley is just like every little boy; he wonders why he can't do certain things. For example, he cannot touch real flowers because he is very allergic to them; they make his face itchy and bumpy. But luckily, he can enjoy fake flowers, and he can even use them to decorate hats! His sister and her friend are ballet dancers, and he uses his hat-decorating skills to help them out. Wesley's father is a horseback rider, and while Wesley can't touch the flowers, he can ride with his father in the sunflower patch. And when he finds a lost kitten in the barn, he learns that there's even more he can do. In this children's story, a boy in a wheelchair finds his true abilities through life experiences with flowers, ballet, horses, and a kitten-with the support of his loving family.

The absence of universal health insurance coverage in the United States of America has been debated for years without many solutions being proposed. Barry G. Hoerig, a registered nurse and certified case manager, explains how Medicare for all would solve our problems in this thought-provoking book. He also reveals how politicians continue to work against a solution that could transform our health care system. As you read, you'll get answers to questions such as: - How does the American health care system go against the tenets of capitalism?- How are people without insurance treated differently than those with insurance?- How can American health care offer consumers more choices? Paving the way for Medicare for all makes sense but it won't come at a cost: Yes, Americans will have to pay more taxes, but it will also result in a reciprocal reduction of taxes and health care premiums elsewhere. It's imperative, however, that Medicare for all be cost effective and fair. Moreover, it must temper the negative aspects of capitalism while avoiding the awful results of socialism. Get detailed insights on how to improve health care for everyone with the insights in Affordable Medicare for All.

Many Christians are deeply disturbed by the idea that there is a real hell in which people suffer forever and ever according to the Bible. This is especially true with respect to Christians who believe that they have loved ones who might end up in this horrendous place. What a relief it would be for them to see that such a hell is not claimed by the Bible. To that end, author John D. Frey leads readers on a well-researched journey that investigates what the Bible really says about hell. The author provides overwhelming evidence that there is no hell in which anyone suffers in any way and this evidence is based on what is claimed by the Bible. The book contains 12 chapters. Chapter 1 presents the events that occurred in a place near the walls of Jerusalem called the valley of Hinnom, later translated to "hell". Chapters 2-3 primarily deal with events surrounding Jesus and Isaiah. Chapters 4-5 discuss the events in the parables of Jesus and visions of John in the book of Revelation. Chapter 6 explores Bible passages that explain what finally happens to the unrighteous. Chapters 7-8 explore why both Gentile Christians of the second century and some modern Christian denominations believe in a hell in which unrighteous people will suffer forever. Chapters 9-10 explore the concepts of Sheol and Hades in the Bible and what Jewish Rabbis say about hell. Chapter 11 confirms the existence of heaven. Finally, in chapter 12, concluding thoughts are presented.
