What a great discovery! This book is the perfect idiom program for my students. I would love to see a new edition, and I would buy it for all my students.

A suggestion:

The new edition could include a variety of accents to give the dialogues a more international flavor. Right now, all the voices are American. This is fine, but most of my students are Europeans.

Chuck Norris is only a few years younger than me and spent much of his childhood only a few miles down the road from where my wife grew up. I spent my younger days a 100 miles up the road but conditions weren't much different from one oil patch town to another. I know his younger years very well.
There is much truth in the title. Odds were not good for any youngster in a bottom of the lower middle class family and Norris faced multiple shares of terrible odds. The notion that "all men are created equal" has always been BS. No amount of education, training and dedication could ever put me in the same class as Chuck Norris, John Force, Ed Roth, or Elvis. BUT!!! Carlos kept exploring until he found his place then went for it with sincerity and dedication.
I, and most of the people I knew as a kid, did much the same but with various levels of dedication and end result. Some of us did extremely well. None of us wound up on welfare.
There are many messages from this book but the most important are; Self-worth cannot be taught, it must be earned. We are each responsible for what we become. "Victims" never become "champions."
In the end, it is up to us.

God is not dead. Miracles are happening all around us. God does not do miracles without a purpose. This video shows miracles God used in the establishment and continuing existence of the nation of Israel.

It is a warning to those who fight against Israel or cease supporting Israel, that they are fighting God or turning their backs on God. That may not be too smart.

It is also an encouragement to those who study the Bible to see God using supernatural intervention to accomplish His prophecy for the future of Israel and the world.

I strongly encourage families, small groups, synagogues, churches, and even skeptics to watch this film.

WOW! I can't believe I found an author I like as much as Dee Henderson. AGAINST ALL ODDS has everything anyone who likes Christian/Romance/Suspense is looking for.
When Evan "Coop" Cooper, a member of the FBI Hostage Rescue Team, is assigned to protect Monica Callahan-a woman who doesn't want anyone interfering in her life- sparks fly. Those sparks ignite something deep inside Coop. But with Monica's safety on the line, he ignores his personal feelings even though he knows he is falling in love with Monica.
Monica, estranged from her father, is angered that her world has been turned upside down. But when she realizes the threat against her life is for real, she relies on Coop to keep her safe. What she's not ready for is the way Coop has invaded every part of her world, including her heart.
Irene Hannon has masterfully weaved a story filled with intriguing suspense and dramatic romance. Her characters are rich and warm, and the banter between them as they try to deny their feelings for each other is what keeps you turning page after page. AGAINST ALL ODDS will definitely be cataloged as one of my favorites.
