by Susan Kuklin

From the book jacket: Doug the black labrador is just a pup when he comes to spend a year with twelve-year-old George and his foster family. At the end of that year, Doug will be trained as a dog guide for a blind person, so it's important that he be ready for training. George has to teach his dog manners, how to obey rules and how to get along with all kinds of people, but most of all, he has to give Doug tons of love and affection so that he will be trusting and want to learn.

Mythology

by Edith Hamilton

Greek and Roman mythology is quite generally supposed to show us the way the human race thought and felt untold ages ago. Through it, according to this view, we can retrace the path from civilized man who lives so far from nature, to man who lived in close companionship with nature; and the real interest of the myths is that they lead us back to a time when the world was young and people had a connection with the earth, with trees and seas and flowers and hills, unlike anything we ourselves can feel.

Presumed Guilty: When Innocent People Are Wrongly Convicted

by Martin Yant

"In the following chapters, you will see how and why such outrageous miscarriages of justice occur and what can be done to avoid them. You will also see how most of these egregious errors are the result of mere chance and could happen to anyone-including you. Find that hard to believe? Then wait till you see how engineer Lenell Geter ended up with a life sentence for armed robbery because he read books and fed the ducks in a park during his lunch hour. Wait till you see how Randall Dale Adams came within three days of being executed for the murder of a police officer he had nothing to do with because he ran out of gas at the wrong place and the wrong time. Wait till you see how William Jackson Marion was executed for the murder of a man found to be alive four years later. Wait till you see how a desperately poor couple who abandoned their seriously ill daughter in hopes she would receive the care they couldn't afford were convicted of her murder, only to have her discovered alive and well twenty months later. Wait till you see how Joyce Ann Brown ended up in prison for almost ten years because the car used in a robbery-murder was rented by another Joyce Ann Brown. Wait till you see how innocent people are convicted or sentenced to death largely because of the testimony of inexpert "expert witnesses" for hire, faulty forensics tests, and inaccurate polygraph exams. Wait till you see what it cost the Reverend Bernard Pagano before another man confessed to the crimes with which the Roman Catholic priest was charged. Wait till you see the cross that Bible-college student Steven Linscott has had to bear because he believed a nightmare he had might have been a spiritual sign that could help police solve a murder. Wait till you see how Larry Hicks was almost executed for a murder he didn't commit because he helped some neighbors move and had a lazy court-appointed attorney who didn't even bother to appeal his conviction."
