      Politics of Practice
    • Sometimes the most important conversations with a child happen at bedtime. God designed every creature - owls AND people - with loving purpose and value. This little elf owl needed to know he/she mattered and was cared for. So do children! Enjoy this book together as fun that leads you and the child listening to this story to know the deep value and purpose you have from God, and the deep joy and delight Father God finds in you! Rose Hunter taught in elementary schools, wrote books with the pastor of a church she belonged to, and created and led children's programs at the Phoenix Zoo. Her most important accomplishment, though, is raising two wonderful sons to know and believe God loves them, and being Grandma to two amazing, creative grandkids who also needed to know God designed and cherishes them!

    • think of my body as a shell that I could vacate, not as metaphor, or symbol but as a real possibility Body Shell Girl is a memoir in verse about the first two years of a decade that Rose Hunter spent in the sex industry in Canada. When Rose walked into a massage parlour in Toronto in 1997, she was looking for a temporary fix to pay rent and avoid having to go back to her home country of Australia. Awkward, shy and looking for a place to belong, she found herself in a strange world she understood little about, other than here she could make more than rent. She planned to use her earnings to buy herself an education that would secure the career of her dreams. Naively believing she could do only what was required of her, without trauma or side effects and leave the industry on her own terms, she was shattered by what unfolded. This is her story. It is also a searing portrayal of this dehumanising industry in all its destructive power.
