Snakes appearing in toilet bowls is ceasing to be a random occurrence and becoming recognized as more than a simple plumbing problem. Perhaps the most annoying fact is that these appearances are unpredictable as there is really no way to foretell if and when a snake, rat or other creature will swim up your drain pipe and invade your home. The purpose of this book is to create fear but to outline the very real danger that people face, whether they own their homes, rent apartments or even temporarily reside in a hotel. All it takes is a breach in the sewer system at one or multiple points. The biology of rats, snakes and other crawlers allow them to swim long distances, in the dark, in search of food, shelter or company. Unfortunately, even with intact drainage systems, they may still gain entry via sewage disposal points. The good news is there are simple mechanisms that can help protect you. Whether there is real danger to your home (through your toilet or drains) or not, the uncertainty and worry the fear of invasion creates, can be prevented. There are simple means that will allow you rest easy when your little one heads for the bathroom or even when you stumble to the toilet in the dark. Find out how!

At age 20, American gymnast Shawn Johnson is a four-time Olympic gold and silver medalist; a national- and world-champion athlete. Already a popular role model to all ages, in 2009 she captured the national spotlight again when she won the widely popular Dancing with the Stars. Yet Shawn is no stranger to hard work and adversity. Her loss of the major gymnastics prize everyone expected her to win in Beijing, the all-around Olympic gold medal, was the loss of a dream she’d worked for since childhood. And later, she suffered a staggering injury in a skiing accident that forced her life to a halt and made her rethink what was really important. She wasn’t sure who she was anymore. She wasn’t sure what her goals were. And she wasn’t sure she was satisfied with where she was with her faith and God. Could she find the right kind of success in life—the kind that doesn’t involve medals or trophies, but peace, love, and lasting joy? This is the amazing true journey of how the young woman who won an Olympic gold medal on the balance beam became even more balanced.
