2025 Global Book Awards Silver Medalist in Self Help Success

Life is coming at us fast. It’s easier with a guide for life navigation.


About the Book:

The world has changed more in the last few years than in the previous fifty, rendering our traditional blueprints for life, work, and success outdated. Strategies that once promised a clear path to the American Dream, like pursuing a conventional education or climbing the company ladder, no longer guarantee continual progress toward our goals. Many of us find ourselves unprepared and uncertain, struggling to adapt to the accelerating pace of change. In this new era, the questions arise: what are the key drivers of success and sustainability? How can we navigate this complex world effectively?

The New Life Blueprint: A 21st Century Guide to Success, Health, Wealth, and Happiness in a Complex World by best-selling author Dr. Natalia Peart, with Christopher Burge, offers an insightful approach to navigating life more holistically and sustainably in our rapidly changing world.

Traditionally, success was a straightforward formula: get a degree, land a job, work hard, and enjoy the rewards. In The New Life Blueprint, Peart and Burge first examine the historical, contextual, and personal shifts that have made this old blueprint outdated. They make the case compellingly that this blueprint, which currently guides our educational, career, and life choices, was designed for a simpler, more predictable era but no longer applies in our new, more complex era.

They respond to this challenge by reinventing the old blueprint into a modern-era career, mental, financial, and lifestyle blueprint. Their new roadmap provides readers with the instructions and guidance they need to equip and prepare themselves to navigate their professional and personal lives, build resilience in constant uncertainty, and achieve the sustainable success, health, wealth, and happiness they seek.

Drawing on 14 disciplines, including neuroscience, economics, and performance psychology, as well as decades of experience as a psychologist, CEO, leadership and performance consultant, and Wall Street executive, the authors bring a wealth of knowledge to the table.

This book is not just about survival; it’s about flourishing in a world where change is the only constant. The New Life Blueprint not only captures the urgency and necessity for a redefined approach to living in a complex world but also provides a hopeful vision for thriving with confidence and clarity.

Cover Reveal ~ Almost There by Jean Seager ~ @RABTBookTours #RABTBookTours #AlmostThere #JeanSeager #HistoricalFiction

COVER REVEAL 


A Collection Inspired by True Stories of the Jewish Immigrant Experience


Historical Fiction

Publisher: Acorn Publishing


About the Book:

Almost There offers an intimate, emotionally resonant portrait of the Jewish immigrant experience in early twentieth-century America. This collection of linked short stories follows individuals who faced the uncertainty of a new land, summoned the courage to navigate unfamiliar cultures, and endured the antisemitism that shaped their world.

While fictionalized, these narratives were inspired by interviews with Americans who shared memories of their immigrant ancestors. Their stories unfold against the backdrop of sweeping historical events, such as the Great Depression, World War II, the Holocaust, and the founding of the State of Israel.

Poignant and powerful, Almost There illuminates a pivotal chapter in American history and speaks to the timeless search for belonging, identity, and home.

 

About the Author:

 


 Award-winning writer Jean Seager graduated from the University of California, Berkeley, and received two graduate degrees from San Diego State University. Her writing has appeared in the

literary publications Mikrokosmos and The Long Story. In 2018, her story “The Award” won second place in the San Diego Public Library’s short story contest.

A granddaughter of Jewish immigrants who came to America from eastern Europe in the early twentieth century, Jean was fascinated by her mother’s stories of growing up as a second-generation immigrant in Tennessee’s tobacco country. The Jewish immigrant experience continued to intrigue her and became the catalyst for her writing.

Jean is a native Californian and long-time resident of Coronado, a suburb of San Diego, where she lives with her husband Bill.

Rhea and Crowley by G.D Griffiths ~ @RABTBookTours #RABTBookTours #RheaandCrowley #GDGriffiths #ChildrensBook


Rhea and Crowley by G.D. Griffiths



Children's Picture Books

Date Published: March 10, 2026



About the Book:

Meet Rhea! She is a big, fluffy German Shepherd with a wiggly tail. She is brave and strong, but she has a tiny secret: loud thunder makes her want to hide.

Meet Crowley! He is a clever crow with shiny feathers. But he has a big worry for a bird: looking down from the sky makes him feel dizzy!

One day, on a camping trip, Rhea follows a yummy smell deep into the woods. But as she wanders further and further away from her tent, she gets lost just as big storm clouds begin to gather above her. But she isn't alone in the dark woods. She stumbles upon Crowley, a bird who would rather hop than fly.

Now, this dog and bird must become a team. Can they help each other be brave enough to find Rhea's way back to the campsite?

 

A story they won't outgrow

A Story That Grows With Your Child! This book features two versions of Rhea and Crowley's adventure:

Read 1 - The Read-Aloud: Short, rhythmic, and full of fun sounds for toddlers (Ages 1-5)

Read 2 -The Early Reader: An expanded story with more details and dialogue for independent readers (Ages 6-9)

 


About the Author:

 

 G.D's storytelling spark was ignited in the hallowed land of Wales, where his childhood was spent exploring the sea until the legendary midnight summer twilight. His journey led him through academia, earning degrees in Computer Science and Operations Management, culminating in a PhD focused on Virtual Reality.

While pursuing his studies in Nottingham, he met his wife. Together, their spirit of adventure took them first to New Zealand, where G.D worked in the video game industry and taught Scuba Diving. A seemingly simple job inquiry brought them to California, a place they planned to "try for one year," and where they still reside almost fourteen years later in Redondo Beach.

The family, which welcomed their son in 2012, is completed by Rhea, their quirky German Shepherd. Rhea became the key inspiration for G.D's first book, ABC's With Rhea, A doggy journey through the alphabet. Having observed that children learn best through stories, G.D wrote this book to craft a specific, relatable world for each letter, encouraging children to connect deeply with the subject.

He has recently published his second book, Olly's Journey, and is already hard at work weaving new tales and adventures for his readers.

G.D's mission is to empower children to pursue their own creative writing journey.

Forest Legend by Dan Ellens


The Tale of Ol' Split Toe


YOUNG ADULT FICTION

Science & Nature/Environment Science Fiction/Time Travel Literature & Fiction/Action & Adventure

Date Published: 03-31-2026

Publisher: Mission Point Press



About the Book:

Mother Nature struggles to maintain equilibrium in a changing world while fire, disease, logging, human displacement, and war repeatedly destroy forests of centuries-old trees. Split Toe, a deer chosen at birth for a unique education, travels through time to understand the interconnected workings of a Michigan forest. He meets humans along the way: Ice Age hunters who trap and kill a mastodon; Mukwoh, a young Ojibwe hunter who stalks Split Toe through swamp and forest; loggers clearcutting Michigan’s white pines; Edra, a woman advocating for the trees; Angus and Grace, pioneers who become a first generation of family farmers; scientists from the future studying the impact of nuclear radiation.

Split Toe witnesses two hundred years of conflict building between modern humans -- who fight to control the natural world -- and Mother Nature, who repeatedly reaches for balance. He wonders whether human ways will ultimately overpower Mother Nature, until he meets a boy who changes everything.

A cozy historical mystery set in the 18th century—perfect for Bridgerton fans!

1787, Bath. Mrs. Tiffany Lathrop has catalogued the entire library at Astwell Palace and is feeling rather dull when Mr. Thomas Montague invites her and her husband Samir to visit Bath. Thomas begs Tiffany to help reconcile his mother Catharine, the Marchioness of Harwood, on his engagement to the famous actress Miss Rosalyn Arden—a beautiful young woman with bright red curls and eyes of mismatched color.

Eager to see his beloved, Thomas stops at the Theatre Royal with Tiffany and they discover a dead body wearing a red wig in Rosalyn’s dressing room. The body is that of Miss Julia Shakespeare, Rosalyn’s understudy and the person who has been blackmailing members of the acting company. Not only are the actors behaving suspiciously, but so are Rosalyn’s newly reconciled relatives that cast her off nine years before when she jilted Sir Frederick Bingham, who then married her younger sister.

If all the world is a stage, then someone acting innocent must be the murderer. Can Tiffany solve the mystery before the final curtain?
