We Did It forms part of a global intention to restore order and balance to our planet Earth that seems desperately in need of healing. It speaks to the deeper contours of our human awareness and challenges everyone to elevate to higher levels of consciousness; to operate effectively at the level of expected dominion and to embrace the challenges of personal responsibility needed in order to make the world a better place for all of humanity. We Did It is a purposeful review of a lifes journey. It delves deeply beneath the core tapestry of some of the greatest challenges of its generation, including homosexuality and HIV/AIDS, and appropriately offers an opportunity for the cleansing process of restoration, tolerance and transcendence. We Did It is about promoting peace, about love; it is about attaining your highest expectation and uncovering possibilities as productive co-creators on the planet. A positive response is likely to make manifest an evolution with greater understanding and offers the promise of a journey back to perfect alignment with source: life, love, and nature; a resulting brotherhood and an awakened oneness of spirit in a very diverse and complex world that now must learn to co-exist both peacefully and consciously for its own survival.

Karl's inspirational story follows the hockey journey from house league to the big leagues and shows how to grow the unlimited potential that is in every child.

Their two daughters are teachers, one a university basketball star and the other a talented visual artist. Their two youngest children, goaltender Malcolm and defenceman Jordan, are also rising through the professional ranks, drafted and signed by NHL teams--the three sons adding up to what Karl calls "the Subban hat trick."

Aged 95, John Hill looks up to the skies from his garden in Leigh-on-Sea, as he hears the unmistakeable sound of Merlin plane engines: two vintage Lancasters roar overhead and John can’t believe their closeness. It feels like his own personal flypast, an acknowledgment of his wartime service in the RAF. In 2015, he told his niece, Pamela, the story of his RAF training in England and Canada. This led to his active service as a navigator, with 107 Mosquito Squadron, in the later stages of WWII. John’s account was vividly narrated, remembered across the years as if it were yesterday. Recorded and transcribed, it formed the inspiration for this book, ‘We did what we had to.’ John and his Canadian pilot, Court, flew 46 missions over Occupied Europe and Germany in the famous 2-seater, wooden combat plane, The Mosquito, which contributed so much to the Allies’ success in the air. John recalls details so clearly, for example, the occasion of a brief leave in London, when he arrived at the underground tube station and read the billboard headlines ‘Monty crosses the Rhine’. ‘I was there last night, I thought to myself. I was up there in the skies looking down on the Rhine. It seemed surreal.’ Details like this, together with serious comment and humorous anecdotes, make this book so personal, and reflect the character of Flying Officer, John Hill, who passed out as top cadet in his class, gaining an immediate commission. The title of the book refers to John’s characteristic understatement when describing his unique part in momentous events of history. These were the years in which he, along with so many others of his generation, accepted the hazards of war to serve his country in the cause of freedom. Lest we forget.

Until now, there hasn’t been an in-depth analysis of how they did it. In Yes We Did, new media strategist and campaign headquarters volunteer Rahaf Harfoush gives us a behind the-scenes look at the campaign’s use of technology, from its earliest days through election night. She reveals strategic insights organizations can apply to their own brands.

Praised by New York Times bestselling author Lauren Myracle as “hilarious, moving and flat-out fun,” and Kirkus as a “pitch-perfect rendering…of the teen experience,” Ten Things We Did (and Probably Shouldn't Have) has captured the hearts of critics and readers alike. Fans of Sarah Dessen, E. Lockhart, and Maureen Johnson will love this hilarious and heartwarming tale of a girl on her own for the first time. If given the opportunity, what sixteen-year-old wouldn’t jump at the chance to move in with a friend and live parent-free? Although maybe “opportunity” isn’t the right word, since April had to tell her dad a tiny little untruth to make it happen (see #1: “Lied to Our Parents”). But she and her housemate Vi are totally responsible and able to take care of themselves. How they ended up “Skipping School” (#3), “Buying a Hot Tub” (#4), and, um, “Harboring a Fugitive” (#7) is a mystery to them. To get through the year, April will have to juggle a love triangle, learn to do her own laundry, and accept that her carefully constructed world just might be falling apart . . . one thing-she-shouldn’t-have-done at a time.
