Anyone wondering what sort of experience prepares one for a future as an engineer may be surprised to learn that it includes delivering newspapers. But as Henry Petroski recounts his youth in 1950s Queens, New York–a borough of handball games and inexplicably numbered streets–he winningly shows how his after-school job amounted to a prep course in practical engineering. Petroksi’s paper was The Long Island Press, whose headlines ran to COP SAVES OLD WOMAN FROM THUG and DiMAG SAYS BUMS CAN’T WIN SERIES. Folding it into a tube suitable for throwing was an exercise in post-Euclidean geometry. Maintaining a Schwinn revealed volumes about mechanics. Reading Paperboy, we also learn about the hazing rituals of its namesakes, the aesthetics of kitchen appliances, and the delicate art of penny-pitching. With gratifying reflections on these and other lessons of a bygone era–lessons about diligence, labor, and community-mindedness–Paperboy is a piece of Americana to cherish and reread.

Money Honey is an inspirational, entrepreneurial guide to finding the wealth inside of you! Money Honey is written based on the principles that a gift is the transfer of something without the expectation of receiving something in return. Each edition of Money Honey will include ten chapters of self-motivating stories and innovative ideas that can be manifested through the gifts that are already inside of you. Although gift-giving might involve an expectation of reciprocity, a gift is meant to be free. Money Honey defines the purpose of the term "gift" that refers to anything that makes the other happier or more optimistic, especially as a favor. Our purpose is to contribute to social bonding between members of a community through the act of mutually exchanging money for goods by creating entrepreneurs. Life on Earth is considered one of God's gifts, and it is a good thing to receive wealth from God and the good health to enjoy it. To enjoy your work and accept your lot in life this is indeed a gift from God (Ecclesiastes 5:19 NLT).
