Every once in a while an incredibly talented athlete comes on the scene— in baseball that athlete would be able to run fast, throw hard, hit the ball a mile, etc. Books and movies are produced to tell the hero’s story. But what about the rest of us, the vast majority of us, who are less than talented, uncoordinated, near-sighted? Do we get a hero we can relate to?

The Unnatural tells the story of Hickey Plastow, who has absolutely no talent, but is determined to have a career playing professional baseball. Set against the backdrop of World War II, with little but an iron-willed desire to succeed, some luck, and a coach and family who believe in him, Hickey not only makes the grade, but performs beyond anyone's dreams, except his own....

This book is dedicated to every kid who's been told “you're not good enough.”

About the Author

Dave Phillips was born and raised in Doylestown, Pennsylvania in the post-war “Baby Boomer” generation. Faced with the almost certain possibility of being drafted after his college days at Villanova, he joined the US Navy as an ensign in 1974. Six years active duty, eighteen more in the reserves, he retired with the rank of Captain. As a civilian, Dave worked in manufacturing, software industry, and insurance. 

He turned his lifelong woodworking hobby into a custom cabinet business. Dave had been flunked on a writing assignment by a high school teacher who claimed his work was “too good” for a high school student—he must have cheated. He hadn't, but that bad experience led to a long-standing goal that “someday” he would see if he could really succeed as a writer. Dave is happily married, living in South Florida, and father of four terrific adult children. He's an avid golfer, woodworker and fisherman. Aside from writing and golf, Dave is active in his church and community association.

I regret my purchase
Color: Blue, Size: Medium (Pack of 1)
A few things: 1) this bed is much smaller than you think. Even if you measure it the way it’s constructed makes the area under the flap super small. 2) my dogs, burrow under blankets, covers, everything. But they don’t burrow under this. It’s designed to be appealing to humans, but dogs don’t care for it. 3) you probably already read this another reviews, but the flap doesn’t really stay up at all. That wouldn’t be a problem for my dogs, but it may be for yours. My recommendation – don’t buy this. It’s a gimmick. They make others with larger areas under the flap that are more expensive, but it’s worth the money instead of wasting it on this.

These heavy weight disposable forks are a great value for the money. They are thick enough that they won't break while using. they have a smooth handle that is easy to use. We use these in our small group making them suitible for cake or pot roast.
