Here are a few that may work well on someone else\u2019s.<\/em><br \/>\n<em> <strong>FOR ADULTS:<\/strong> When the day comes that we can\u2019t laugh at ourselves, we\u2019re in trouble. To avoid that hazard, consider picking up Salt Lake Tribune columnist Robert Kirby\u2019s <a title=\"Family Home Screaming\" href=\"https:\/\/zionbookworks.com\/family-home-screaming\/\"><strong>Family Home Screaming<\/strong><\/a>, a 1999 original (and I do mean original) re-issued from Leicester Bay Books, along with <strong>Sunday of the Living Dead<\/strong> and <a title=\"Kirby Soup for the Soul\" href=\"https:\/\/zionbookworks.com\/kirby-soup-for-the-soul\/\"><strong>Kirby Soup for the Soul<\/strong><\/a>. I once worked at a newspaper with Kirby, and I can only say it was an experience.<\/em><br \/>\n<em> What you get in these books is the real thing, from a dad describing the angst of having a teenager take a driving test to a day trying to enjoy a water park, there\u2019s stuff here we all recognize and relate to.<\/em><br \/>\n<em> Seeing titles like \u201cRise and Whine\u201d and his assessment of grand-parenthood as \u201cthe second most fun part of procreation,\u201d how could a reader not smile? And to top it off, cartoonist Bagley\u2019s added his own witty takes on family life.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;The Only fault with this book (if there is one) is that most people who are not Mormon, (Mo&#8217;s) won&#8217;t be able to relate to a lot of the humor in this book. Otherwise this has got to be my all time favorite book. I got my first paper back version in 1997 I think and a few years ago I bought the kindle version. This book cracks me up, partly because I can identify with Kirby&#8217;s snarky sense of humor, and also because I have witnessed first hand a lot of what he pokes fun at. As those of you who are NM&#8217;s living in Salt Lake, you need to get a grip and stop making the rest of us look like a bunch of crazies.&#8221;<\/em> &#8212; Online reviewer<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<hr \/>\n<h1><strong>Where to Buy:<\/strong><\/h1>\n<ul>\n<li>Buy from<em><strong> Zion BookWorks<\/strong><\/em> through our <strong>PayPal Shopping Cart<\/strong> (<strong>$11.95<\/strong> + s&amp;h + Maine sales tax) Click on the &#8216;Add To Cart&#8217; button<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<form action=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr\" method=\"post\" target=\"paypal\"><input name=\"cmd\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"_s-xclick\" \/><br \/>\n<input name=\"hosted_button_id\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"6CUUZZBCZGBSA\" \/><br \/>\n<input alt=\"PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!\" name=\"submit\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/btn\/btn_cart_LG.gif\" type=\"image\" \/><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/scr\/pixel.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/form>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em><strong>Available NOW &#8212;\u00a0 for $5.99 &#8212; on KINDLE by clicking <a title=\"Sunday of The Living Dead on Kindle\" href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B00B56CQLY\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">HERE<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h1><strong>Bookstores and Resellers<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p>If you are a <strong>bookstore<\/strong> or other <strong>reseller<\/strong> and wish to carry this title, or special order a copy for a special customer, contact us by <a href=\"mailto:cmichaelperry53@gmail.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>email<\/strong><\/a> for a quote on Library and wholesale prices.
