Chronicling a childhood troubled by obesity, poor body image, and low self-esteem, this collection of poetry reveals how the media's perfect faces, societal expectations, family concerns, and primitive socialization rituals collide with the physical and emotional tribulations of adolescence to drive Calvin Little over the edge. He'll stop at nothing to become beautiful and weightless, but he must conceal his battle with what the world has come to know as a girl's disease. Is there redemption in social acceptance, in romantic love, in escaping gravity? Is it enough to learn to love oneself? Calvin's journey is told in a sequence of poems steeped in both the physical and psychological worlds, in voices that range from the bawdy to the elegiac. Through these poems, Calvin Little becomes the ideal antihero for a shallow culture obsessed with thin.

Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, two high school misfits in Depression-era Cleveland, were more like Clark Kent--meek, mild, and myopic--than his secret identity, Superman. Both boys escaped into the worlds of science fiction and pulp magazine adventure tales. Jerry wrote his own original stories and Joe illustrated them. In 1934, the summer they graduated from high school, they created a superhero who was everything they were not. It was four more years before they convinced a publisher to take a chance on their Man of Steel in a new format--the comic book. The author includes a provocative afterword about the long struggle Jerry and Joe had with DC Comics when the boys realized they had made a mistake in selling all rights to Superman for a mere $130.

It will make you laugh and cry but mostly sigh. I enjoyed the whole series but could have read each one separately. Leeanna Morgan made the love flow. A great read for everyone who loves romance!” “Every one of the books in The Montana Brides Series is filled with laughter, joy and tears. The family and friendship ties are so special. The romance and loving relationships are the best. I read these 7 books in 5 days. I couldn’t put these books down. You have to read the following series, The Bridesmaid Club Series. AWESOME! I'm almost done with the books.” “I enjoyed this story! It was hard to put the book down and I didn't unless I had to. The storyline and characters were perfect and the scenic descriptions were wonderful. Such a lovely romantic story.” Keywords: Heartwarming, small town romance, western, ranch, cowboy, friendship, family life, series, Montana, relationships, love, wedding, bride, bridesmaid, family saga, second chance, baby, auction, rich, wealthy, vacation.
