ABOUT THE BOOKS

Picture
The Silhouette Man (189 pages) tells the story of a young professional's efforts to make a difference in the world outside his window, his experiences growing up that shape those efforts, and the older adult who mentors him every step of the way. It is in its 18th Anniversary edition. It is geared to adult readers. The First Thirty (96 pages) is the condensed version of the story, geared to 6th grade through 12th grade reading level (and adults who prefer shorter stories).  It is in its 21st Anniversary edition. A Place To Sit (300+ questions & activities) is the companion workbook that can be used with The Silhouette Man or The First Thirty. The Milkshake Man (42 pages) is the illustrated edition of the story, geared to Kindergarten through 5th grade reading level (and kids at heart). It is in its 5th anniversary edition. One Lunch (200+ questions & activities) is the companion workbook that can be used with The Milkshake Man.  All of the books & workbooks are in paperback. To order copies, click here.
