Having had many unexplainable brushes with possible tragic results, Ivanhoe's autobiographical journey questions the veracity of fate versus guardian help from the other side. Too many unexplained circumstances impose a belief that our lives are not simple occurrences of happenstance, but rather a supervised experience under the umbrella of a contract made with ourselves prior to our birth. As a young boy his relationship with God was one of innocent, childlike curiosity about where God lived and what he did for people through a Catholic healer named Brother Andre. His relatively religious childhood perpetuated an interest in spirituality, but his faith in secular religion faded into vacillating between atheism and agnostic until he witnessed the painful death of his mother. This is when the "knowing" aspect that she didn't die conflicted with his pragmatic methods of an engineering environment. Recounting three out-of-body experiences and an unexplainable circumstance that allowed him to look into a future event, his engineer thinking was that this is personal and tangible evidence that there's something else going on other than just physical embodiment. Not accepting that Mom was nowhere, he begins an exhaustive search into veridical near death experiences. These are near death experiences that were verifiable through others that did not have the experience. In this sense, stories of tunnels, angels, dead relatives and so on were ignored over doctor's, paramedic's and other people's accounts that the "dead" person was able to see and hear when they were clinically dead. Special attention was given to things they witnessed in places other than where the bodies of the dead were at the time. Ivanhoe makes the argument that God must exist by referencing physicists and others in the scientific community that are conceding to facts that support an intelligent energy for both the existence of the universe and that of intelligent coding within DNA. Also explained are new theories that the brain is not the seat of consciousness, but that the mind can be present and conscious outside the brain. This is supported with studies being conducted by physicians documenting cases of consciousness outside the body. A postulate is made of how probabilities in a state where time has no meaning allows one to foresee future events and how those collapse into physical choices. These probabilities that in turn allow for choice are explained by way of the laws of quantum physics. This idea provides a plausible real world answer to the dichotomy that God knows all, however, only one path is ultimately chosen by way of free will. The culmination of his search is a solace for anyone that has lost a loved one.

"23 Things..." is a book of questions -- all questions -- the author wrote to open himself up and move his life forward.Mourning and grieving can be, after a point, destructive. Unanswered questions can be haunting. The author, Jan Zlotnick, found himself, before and during the pandemic, asking questions out loud to his parents, who died many years prior. He found that putting the questions in writing and reflecting on them was as much about listening to himself as listening for answers from his loved ones. It also made him think of the questions his own children and friends and family might have for him today. After the last page, where Jan recalls his most cherished question as a child in the dark...there is even a way to ask your own question to Jan.
For young children who live in two homes, this bright, simple story with oversized flaps reassures young readers that there is love in each one. Her parents don't live together anymore, so sometimes the child in this book lives with her mom and cat, and sometimes with Dad. Her bedroom looks a little different in each house, and she keeps some toys in one place and some in another. But her favorite toys she takes with her wherever she goes. In an inviting lift-the-flap format saturated with colorful illustrations, Melanie Walsh visits the changes in routine that are familiar to many children whose parents live apart, but whose love and involvement remain as constant as ever.
