This book draws concentric circles around the single most important parenting tool. I am sure most of you would have been able to guess it by now. Yes I am talking about reliving the love between you two. Soon after marriage, as kids come up, there is void in the place of the love which needs to be filled up.

The authors of this book, Dr. Gary Smalley and Ted Cunningham, talk about the above issues and try to resolve the issues of the aforementioned void between married coupl51pCBIJDCJL._BO2,204,203,200_PIsitb-sticker-arrow-click,TopRight,35,-76_AA300_SH20_OU01_es with kids.

This book comes under the genre of love/marriage/romance. I was offered a complementary copy of this book by its publishers : Tyndale House publishers.

Being a teen, the context of the book was beyond my level of understanding as to how marriage works and especially after kids come along. So I would not rate this book very high on my list but I could refer it to  my married folks to make use of it.

One can avail a discount if making a purchase from www.Amazon.com. This book can be bought from the website for $12.23.

Cut your Grocery Bill in Half with America’s cheapest family

Steve and Annette, the authors of this boon for the middle class, have changed some of their shopping techniques. The alternations have been made keeping savings and health in mind.
Neither do they pay enormous bags of money for their monthly groceries, nor do they save fortunes spending on cheap grocery which could cut back on your health too along with its cost.
 
The couple has successfully come up with wonderful ideas and has an organised the whole procedure of shopping for the groceries. Be it meat, dairy or veggies, the rule is :
NO COMPROMISE ON HEALTH.
In this book, a family of seven survives on the monthly expenditure of $350, that too not miserably. Following the rules of this book, an average family can save up to more than $3000 an year. Also the rules are not extraordinary. They are easy to cope with.
Though to me this book was given complementary by Thomas nelson, you can make the purchase from www.amazon.com for $11.55.

The Butterfly Effect

This lovely piece has been “literally” carved by the much appreciated author of the book “The Boy Who Changed The World”, Andy Andrews.


The concept of the this book is somehow similar to that of the above mentioned book, “The Boy Who Changed The World” that is on large : how the smallest of actions lead to bigger things.
This one can be kept for a gifting purpose, knowing the beauty of the wonderfully written book.
The language is easy to understand and has been written in a manner kids can understand.
A complimentary copy of this book was provided to me by Thomas Nelson. I express my gratitude towards him for the favour.
I would surely recommend at least one read of the book.
You can buy the book from www.amazon.com for $10.17.
