Valerie Worthington had all the trappings of successful life-a doctorate from a respectable school, a powerful career trajectory, a condo in Chicago-but it felt hollow. She was hitting all the right notes yet couldn't escape the sinking feeling that something was, very, very wrong. After her instructor passed away, she faced the truth: the life she had built was not the life meant for her. Training Wheels follows Worthington's unlikely odyssey. After quitting her job and selling her condo, she drives around the country to chase the only passion that ever really made sense to her: Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. At the time of Worthington's adventure, jiu-jitsu road trips were rare and female practitioners were rarer still. As her story unfolds, every new gym she steps into uncovers more of her inner-self and reveals more about the jiu-jitsu community as a whole-the good parts as well as the nefarious. Worthington's tale is both a story of self-discovery and a unique insight into jiu-jitsu culture. Her one of a kind adventure is engaging, inspiring, and entertaining, a must-read for anyone passionate about living life to the fullest and taking the road less traveled.

English, with its strange combinations of vowels and consonants, including silent letters and other complications, is a very difficult language to learn to read and write, to the extent that 30 percent of US high school graduates lack proficiency in reading, and an estimated 40 million Americans above the age of fifteen are, to a distressing degree, illiterate. The Training Wheels Alphabet Book takes this scandalous clunker and makes it glide along as though on just twenty-six uncomplicated parts. A very special learning process employed can be described with six words: Trace/Check/Erase/Next and Easy/Speedy. Learners begin by tracing letters and words on transparent overlays—then erased in the same way for further use. This, in effect, repeats the tracing process, reinforcing learning and retention. Shouldn’t it mortify us to the core that so-called third world countries like Bolivia and Cuba are leaving us behind in terms of literacy, thanks mainly to the Spanish language’s nearly perfect spelling system? Use of The Training Wheels Alphabet Book will effectively close this gap. Let’s bridge it without delay!
