A New Novel By Jeffrey H. Baer!
 Rising pop singer Shannon Kistler never expected to see college
student Kevin Derow on a Manhattan street wearing her concert shirt. But she offers gratitude in her own way, leaving her
biggest fan in shock. When the two teenagers meet again six days later, Shannon slips Kevin her phone number, and the unlikely
romance begins. Soon they find they have several things in common: lonely childhoods, a passion for music, and making
unpopular choices about their own lives. Meanwhile Kevin loses the respect of family, friends and coworkers over the
girl he idolizes-and unwittingly blows the lid off a payola scheme devised by Shannon's record label, threatening her career
and possibly his own freedom.
A Song Apart revolves around two young people from distinct backgrounds who choose to follow
their hearts rather than their peers and find a greater reward at the end of their paths.

a child as well as why he couldn't find and keep jobs on his own. The diagnosis helped him accept himself
as he is. There's no cure or treatment for AS, but he finds Paxil frees up the rigid thinking that comes with autism. He
lives in Coney Island with his wonderful girlfriend Karen.

Strength Within!
STRENGTH WITHIN Surviving by the Grace of God Young author Roland V. Tyler, Jr., captures
the full meaning of surviving in this portrait of his and his brother's difficult childhoods. Roland and his brother
suffered verbal, physical, emotional and sexual abuse. Eventhough Roland didn't know it, he would be blessed with tremendous
strength and vision. This strength and vision transformed into creativity, wisdom,
and a message to share with other youth suffering the same fate. One might want to feel sorry for and have pity
for this young man, however, in his presence beams of self-confidence, eloquence,
humbleness and peace shine through! I highly recommend reading this book and sharing it with your students, friends
and your own children! You may purchase this book at www.kingdomlivingbookstore.com $15.00
