Find a date for the Coconut Beach Fall Festival, so my grandma will stop playing matchmaker for the holiday season. 2. Save my bookstore-bakery from being snatched up by a corporate developer, who wants to turn it into another nondescript hotel. 3.

But I have no choice. I’m stuck shadowing him at his company for the next two months.

50 Risks to Take with Your Kids is an easy-to-use framework of challenges for children aged up to 10. You’ll find risks that build physical skills, social confidence and character development, plus some all-important parenting risks that will encourage you to think a little differently about raising children. This book is not about developmental KPIs, and it’s certainly not about judgement. It’s about teaching kids to recognise and assess risk before they enter those ‘risky’ teenage years and about readying them to take on life and all that it brings.

Or was it guilt, not indifference, that made the locals turn a blind eye? When she meets Frances, she at last starts to hope for answers.
