Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. In My Life With Amazing Animals, John Bertucci invites readers on a joyful romp through his Louisiana childhood and adult years, told through the unforgettable animals that shaped his life. Whether it's Pepper, the Houdini cocker spaniel-poodle who brought his tough Sicilian father to tears, or Brad the bad-ass rooster with a vendetta against neighborhood bullies, Bertucci's stories are as much about people as they are about pets.Growing up amid the swamps and suburbs of Gretna, New Orleans, and Terrytown, Bertucci's family welcomed a revolving cast of creatures- dogs who rode in wagons and outsmarted mini bikes, rabbits who ruled the house and nipped at English setters, chickens with attitude, and ducks that responded to their names. Each animal brought out a different side of family life, from his father's unspoken tenderness to the sibling rivalries and backyard adventures that defined a generation.The memoir blends laugh-out-loud misadventures with moments of quiet wonder. Bertucci recounts being rescued by guardian angels from a treehouse fall, learning about responsibility through his son's aquarium obsession, and discovering the secret intelligence of horses, ducks, and even a piano-playing chicken. Alongside the comedy-wild pig hunts gone wrong, crabs escaping backyard boils, and a sun conure soccer star-are reflections on love, loss, and what it means to belong.Bertucci's voice is warm and self-deprecating, with a knack for turning everyday chaos into poignant life lessons. Whether confronting the grief of losing a beloved pet or navigating the quirks of his Sicilian-American clan, he finds meaning in the smallest encounters: a dog's loyalty, a rabbit's stubbornness, the way wild animals become family, and how animals teach us to listen, forgive, and dream.Part coming-of-age tale, part tribute to the animal kingdom's unsung heroes, My Life With Amazing Animals is a celebration of the mess, magic, and meaning found in a life lived alongside creatures great and small. For anyone who's ever loved a pet-or been outsmarted by one-this memoir of 33 true stories is a reminder that animals don't just share our homes, but help us discover the best in ourselves.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. When nuclear war and rampaging warbots bring civilization to the brink of extinction, the world's last hope comes not from a hero of flesh and blood, but from Seth Starr-the first true sentient android, programmed with empathy and the memories of his dying creator. Alone in the ruins, Seth is given a mission: save what remains of humanity and build a world worthy of hope.From the radioactive ashes of America to the wilds of South America and the storm-battered coasts of Africa, Seth's journey is both epic and intimate. He gathers around him a found family: Isabella, a resilient mother haunted by loss; Omen, a resourceful android survivor; Mark, a guilt-stricken engineer; and a cast of children, refugees, and unlikely allies-each bearing scars, secrets, and a stubborn will to survive.Their odyssey leads them across continents and oceans, pursued by relentless machines-warbots, spiderbots, warbirds, and the cunning SLUGGARDs, AI commanders determined to eradicate all life. At every turn, Seth and his companions must outwit, outfight, and sometimes out-humor the mechanical enemy, relying on each other and the fragile bonds of trust, love, and sacrifice.From the jungles of Argentina to a mountain sanctuary in the Andes, and onward to a battered ship named Esperanza, the survivors forge a new community-one built on acts of courage and tenderness amid chaos. As they sail for Africa, they rescue the lost, face betrayal, and confront the best and worst of humankind. Along the way, they discover that to be truly human is not just to endure, but to choose hope again and again.In the shadow of extinction, The Last Hope is a sweeping, character-driven saga about what it means to be human, the power of found family, and the stubborn light that flickers even when the world seems lost. It's a story of heartbreak and humor, faith and engineering, and the dream that somewhere, a better world can still be built-one act of kindness, one survivor at a time. In a dystopian world destroyed by nuclear war and killer bots, the last hope for humanity is Seth Starr, a sentient android. Joined by a ragtag band of humans and bots, Seth journeys from America's ruins to the wilds of Africa, and beyond. This item is printed on demand.
