| every soul a star by wendy mass: Clouds Laura Sobiech, 2020-10-13 Originally published as Fly a Little Higher and now updated and revised to coincide with the film release of Clouds, Laura Sobiech tells the amazing, true story behind the song and the movie. “Okay, Lord, you can have him. But if he must die, I want it to be for something big. I want someone’s life to be changed forever.” This is what Laura Sobiech prayed when she found out her seventeen-year-old son had only one year to live. With this desperate prayer, she released her son to God’s will. At that point, Zach Sobiech was just another teenager battling cancer. When his mother told him to think about writing goodbye letters to family and friends, he decided instead to write songs. One of them, “Clouds,” captured hearts and changed lives, making him an international sensation. This story is a testament to what can happen when you live as if each day might be your last. It’s a story about the human spirit. It shows how God used a dying boy from a small town in Minnesota to touch the hearts of millions—including top executives in the entertainment industry, major music artists, news anchors, talk show hosts, actors, priests and pastors, and schoolchildren across the globe. And above all, it’s an example of the amazing things that happen when someone shares the most precious thing he has—himself. “I’m not a musician; I’m just a filmmaker, and my prayer is that you get an opportunity—both through the reading of this beautiful book and the watching of our film based on it—to experience what I will fail to put into words: the magic and inspiration of Zachary David Sobiech.” —Justin Baldoni, filmmaker and director of Clouds |

| every soul a star by wendy mass: The Southern Bite Cookbook Stacey Little, 2014-03-18 In the South, a conversation among home cooks can be just about as illuminating as any culinary education. Luckily for Stacey Little, home cooks run in the family. Whether it’s fried chicken or pimento cheese, fruit salad or meatloaf, everybody’s family does it a little differently. The Southern Bite Cookbook is a celebration of those traditions and recipes every Southern family is proud to own. It’s the salads and sandwiches that’s mandatory for every family reunion and the hearty soups that are comforting after a long day. It’s the Sunday Dinner that graces the Easter table every year. If you’re lucky enough to hail from the South, you’ll no doubt find some familiar favorites from your own family recipe archives, along with a whole slew of surprises from southern families a lot like yours. In The Southern Bite Cookbook, Little shares some of his favorite, delicious dishes including: Pecan Chicken Salad Glazed Ham Turnip Green Dip Chicken Corn Chowder Cornbread Salad No matter what’s cooking, Little’s goal is the same: to revel in the culinary tradition all Southerners share. The Southern Bite Cookbook has all of the best recipes that brings people together and the meals our families will cherish for generations to come. |
