Dear Men Friends,
Take a look at that '34 Dodge sedan on our newly released
Gifts By The Side of The Road ... as Tim Allen on Home Improvement would say,
"OGH OGH OGH" ...
This book is an experience unlike any we've ever had with a book.
It's like how men of today can now wear pink, hug each other or carry their wives' purses for them at the mall so they can get their shopping done faster!
This book will ever so subtly move anyone to laugh out loud, have tears sting your eyes, feel a wide range of wonderful emotions and to top it off, feel appreciated, loved and empowered, all at the same time.
Here's what four men have already said, and we've only just got this book out the door ...
"I particularly love that last line of I AM A CHILD ADVOCATE, ‘We are all - therefore - today's courageous souls who know in our hearts we have been put here to pave the way to the shortest and safest path to arrive at the desired destination: children living, loving, laughing and playing while enjoying safe, healthy and loving homes.' Whenever I am at my grandkids' home or they come to visit us, I observe their happiness and think to myself, ‘Despite all my other failures, I know we succeeded at this...' Wouldn't it be a great thing if Jack's hope for all kids came to pass. On this, I am sure we can all agree."
- Jim Coppersmith
"I had the lesson at our Christian Men's (The Wrestlers) breakfast this morning. Coincidentally, I used some excerpts from my old classmate Jack Schlatter's new book Gifts By The Side of The Road - one being his "The Majestic Recipe" (p47) as a spiritual play on physical foods we'd just discussed on the subject of coronary heart disease, and another on his "The Finest Steel Gets Sent Through The Hottest Furnace" (p50) which describes Brother George's bout with polio & other medical issues back in our home state of Missouri in the mid-40s. I tied it in to the name of our group with George's being a top wrestler in school and never giving up no matter what the circumstances."
- Ken (Jack's college roommate)
"Wow! You are the most upbeat person I know - see so much good around you - seem to appreciate most everything, just because... Clearly if anyone could do justice to the premise of 'I Am An Appreciator' it would be you. Let me share with you what I took away from your book. Brace yourself, it may be a little off the wall... First, your title is right on the money ... but I didn't buy right into it. I can't tell you why, but I saw your project as 'The Thank You Book.' I've no idea where that came from or goes to ... perhaps it's because over the years I've learned to say ‘thank you' when I appreciate something. Maybe it's an ingrained response to God, to people who have enriched our lives ... made living better ... done extraordinary things... At first, I thought of it as a book of short glimpses of life much like 'Gifts By The Side Of The Road.' Thematically, it's well suited to that ... and I still see it that way. As always, much success with the venture. God bless." - Paul
"Jack, I love your new book so much, it has been so uplifting to me already, that I've decide that I am going to open every class with a story from your book, each and every day." - Jim B, Teacher
