			<description><![CDATA[ &quot;Spread the Peanut Butter Thin&quot; was my first book, published in 2007.  It is about the SEVERE poverty that my family and I lived through from
2001-2004 in Illinois.  It is a great read for this current recession.

My second book is, &quot;As in the Days of Noah: The UFO Phenomenon Exposed&quot; and it is about the role UFOs might play in End Time Prophecy.

			<description><![CDATA[ Hi everyone-
<br>
<br>
Everyone has different tastes but on a recomendation from a close friend I went to Amazon and bought a book called Guys Don&#39;t Rat on Guys by a man named
Grey Baker.  Very seldom does a book do to me what this book did.  It jarred loose so many emotions in me and made me love to read again.  It is a story of
abuse, neglect and family dysfunction but is written in way that makes the victim real rather than someone to pity.  I very rarely suggest books to others... ]]></description>
