Product: Stillhouse Lake
Description: An Amazon Charts and USA Today bestseller.

Gina Royal is the definition of average—a shy Midwestern housewife with a happy marriage and two adorable children. But when a car accident reveals her husband’s secret life as a serial killer, she must remake herself as Gwen Proctor—the ultimate warrior mom.

With her ex now in prison, Gwen has finally found refuge in a new home on remote Stillhouse Lake. Though still the target of stalkers and Internet trolls who think she had something to do with her husband’s crimes, Gwen dares to think her kids can finally grow up in peace.

But just when she’s starting to feel at ease in her new identity, a body turns up in the lake—and threatening letters start arriving from an all-too-familiar address. Gwen Proctor must keep friends close and enemies at bay to avoid being exposed—or watch her kids fall victim to a killer who takes pleasure in tormenting her. One thing is certain: she’s learned how to fight evil. And she’ll never stop.

Product: How to Raise an Adult: Break Free of the Overparenting Trap and Prepare Your Kid for Success
Description: New York Times Bestseller
"Julie Lythcott-Haims is a national treasure. . . . A must-read for every parent who senses that there is a healthier and saner way to raise our children." -Madeline Levine, author of the New York Times bestsellers The Price of Privilege and Teach Your Children Well
"For parents who want to foster hearty self-reliance instead of hollow self-esteem, How to Raise an Adult is the right book at the right time." -Daniel H. Pink, author of the New York Times bestsellers Drive and A Whole New Mind
A provocative manifesto that exposes the harms of helicopter parenting and sets forth an alternate philosophy for raising preteens and teens to self-sufficient young adulthood
In How to Raise an Adult, Julie Lythcott-Haims draws on research, on conversations with admissions officers, educators, and employers, and on her own insights as a mother and as a student dean to highlight the ways in which overparenting harms children, their stressed-out parents, and society at large. While empathizing with the parental hopes and, especially, fears that lead to overhelping, Lythcott-Haims offers practical alternative strategies that underline the importance of allowing children to make their own mistakes and develop the resilience, resourcefulness, and inner determination necessary for success.
Relevant to parents of toddlers as well as of twentysomethings-and of special value to parents of teens-this book is a rallying cry for those who wish to ensure that the next generation can take charge of their own lives with competence and confidence.

Description: Adele Faber y Elaine Mazlish han ayudado a millones de familias con sus bestsellers. Ahora, y por primera vez en espaÑol, estas aclamadas expertas a nivel internacional nos ofrecen una guÍa que le darÁ las herramientas necesarias para ayudarles a sus adolescentes -- ¡y a usted mismo! -- a sobrevivir la etapa difÍcil de la adolescencia.

"Mi hijo de trece aÑos pasa su tiempo con los peores chicos de la escuela. Le paso diciendo que se aleje de ellos, pero siempre me ignora. ¿CÓmo hago para que me haga caso?"

"Mi hija pasa mucho tiempo en el Internet charlando con un muchacho de diecisÉis aÑos. Bueno, por lo menos eso dice Él. Ahora la quiere conocer. Ella estÁ muy entusiasmada. Yo tengo miedo. ¿QuÉ hago?"

"Acabo de enterarme que mi hija de doce aÑos fuma marihuana. ¿CÓmo la confronto?"

Vivir con un adolescente puede ser abrumador. A veces es como si nuestros niÑos cariÑosos se convirtieran de la noche a la maÑana en adolescentes independientes, con sus propios pensamientos, gustos y valores. Hoy en dÍa, los jÓvenes estÁn creciendo en un mundo mÁs cruel, mÁs materialista, mÁs sexual y mÁs violento que antes. ¿QuÉ se debe hacer?

Tras muchos aÑos de investigaciÓn, conferencias y comentarios que han recibido, Faber y Mazlish, autoras del clÁsico bestseller CÓmo Hablar para que los NiÑos Escuchen y CÓmo Escuchar para que los NiÑos Hablen, han desarrollado una innovadora forma de mantener un diÁlogo abierto y respetuoso entre padres y adolescentes, una estrategia que le pone frenos al conflicto, reduce frustraciones y fomenta conversaciones acerca de las drogas, el sexo y otros temas difÍciles y de actualidad.

Escrito en el estilo prÁctico y popular de estas galardonadas autoras, y lleno de sugerencias, historias y dibujos, esta guÍa le ayudarÁ a construir una relaciÓn mÁs comunicativa y menos conflictiva con sus adolescentes.
