Wild Things: The Art of Nurturing Boys
Stephen James and David Thomas
Tyndale, January 2009
Born To Be...Wild! A boy's endless imagination, hunger for adventure, and passionate spirit are matched only by his deep desire to be affirmed, esteemed, and loved. Yet over the past few decades, our culture has adopted a model of parenting and educating children that doesn't affirm, celebrate, or embrace a boy's hunger, passion, or wildness but rather seeks to tame it. As a result, many parents, teachers, coaches, and mentors find themselves frustrated, confused, and wearied by boys' behavior. The truth is, boys don't need to be tamed, they need to be understood, loved, challenged, and encouraged. This book helps understand our vital role that we play on their journey to manhood.

Once you're in, you're never the same. If Bill Dallas didn't have it all, he had most of it: a diploma from a prestigious university, a lucrative career as a top California real estate entrepreneur, and more than enough money to fund a life filled with sports cars, penthouses, and beautiful women. And then it all fell apart. Convicted of grand theft embezzlement, the former golden boy found himself in one of the nation's most infamous institutions-San Quentin, home of "the worst or the worst". He thought it was the end of everything. But the real story was about to begin. This chronicles Bill's journey and along the way, it introduces us to his unlikely mentors-San Quentin's Lifers, who guided Bill to an unexpected relationship with God. Through a vivid experience, Bill shares lessons that can help you triumph over even the most difficult circumstances.
