How-to books have been saving the lives of countless people for years. Simple two-page manuals to books with several chapters  are published every year offering step-by-step directions and great advice on how to do just about anything. It is truly amazing what we can find when we search for it.

But, what about a young woman who struggles to escape from an abusive father who has been molesting her from the time she was three years old? Is there a how to book that will instruct her on how to escape?

Or, how about the woman who is forty-something years old and has had one bad relationship after another due to her inability to move forward after the untimely death of her father? Is there a how to book that will craddle her, hold her hand, and tell her that it will be all right because the author has been there?

How to Jump From a Ferris Wheel and Land on Your Feet is such a how to book. The life-changing, empowering ten-volume series is releasing the fifth volume in late August 2010, Candalyse Publishing.

The first volume was released in 2007. Ten phenomenal women were hand chosen to share a story from their lives. In subsequent volumes, subjects such as miscarriage and how to tell your children about it, the loss of a teenage son and how to live life without him, born with a disfiguring facial birthmark and how to make friends in school have been shared. At first, the stories seem chilling, extremely heart-wrenching, and filled with overwhelming sadness, but they all end in victory.

Inspired to help women to cope with extreme adversity, the series has taken on new meaning in the lives of a younger generation. Women who have contributed their candid and often painful to read stories have reported that their tweens and teens have been reading their copies of the books. Discussions on inappropriate touching by family members and strangers, physical abuse, dropping out of school, teen pregnancy, drug addiction, cutting, and other serious issues are being discussed as a result of young pre-teens and teens reading the Ferris Wheel series of books.

Wondering how to decide what book to read next? There is a how to book for that, too. In the meantime, How to Jump From a Ferris Wheel and Land on Your Feet, Vol. V is sure to inspire, enlighten, empower, and intrigue every reader.

Bulk discount orders are available for ministries, Domestic Violence safe houses, addiction treatment centers, schools, corporations, and others interested in the empowerment series.
