  • Rocks: My Life in and out of Aerosmith

    Joe Perry

    eBook (Simon & Schuster, Oct. 7, 2014)
    Joe Perry’s New York Times bestselling memoir of life in the rock-and-roll band Aerosmith: “An insightful and harrowing roller coaster ride through the career of one of rock and roll’s greatest guitarists. Strap yourself in” (Slash).Before the platinum records or the Super Bowl half-time show or the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Joe Perry was a boy growing up in small-town Massachusetts. He idolized Jacques Cousteau and built his own diving rig that he used to explore a local lake. He dreamed of becoming a marine biologist. But Perry’s neighbors had teenage sons, and those sons had electric guitars, and the noise he heard when they started playing would change his life. The guitar became his passion, an object of lust, an outlet for his restlessness and his rebellious soul. That passion quickly blossomed into an obsession, and he got a band together. One night after a performance he met a brash young musician named Steven Tyler; before long, Aerosmith was born. What happened over the next forty-five years has become the stuff of legend: the knockdown, drag-out, band-splintering fights; the drugs, the booze, the rehab; the packed arenas and timeless hits; the reconciliations and the comebacks. Rocks is an unusually searching memoir of a life that spans from the top of the world to the bottom of the barrel—several times. It is a study of endurance and brotherhood, with Perry providing remarkable candor about Tyler, as well as new insights into their powerful but troubled relationship. It is an insider’s portrait of the rock and roll family, featuring everyone from Jimmy Page to Alice Cooper, Bette Midler to Chuck Berry, John Belushi to Al Hirschfeld. It takes us behind the scenes at unbelievable moments such as Joe and Steven’s appearance in the movie of Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band (they act out the murders of Peter Frampton and the Bee Gees). Full of humor, insight, and brutal honesty about life in and out of one of the biggest bands in the world, Rocks is “well-paced, well-plotted…a mini-masterpiece” (The Boston Globe).

  • Right to be Wanted, Right to be Loved

    John L. Perry

    language (, April 4, 2011)
    "Right to Be Wanted, Right to Be Loved" is intended for reading by parents to help children understand adoption before entering school, where they may otherwise hear of it first on the playground.The author appreciates that receiving this information is likely to be an unsettling experience for children-just as imparting it is not always easy for adopting parents, either.Nor is "Right to Be Wanted, Right to Be Loved" intended just for adopted children and adopting parents.It is suited as well for assisting all parents and all children to understand the power and value of love that can underlie the adopting process.Children who are not adopted may, through this book, come to understand better those children who are adopted-and to learn that the same values are reflected in their relationship with their own parents.They, too, have a right to be wanted and a right to be loved, to know that it is right-and a good thing-to be wanted and to be loved.Aware that younger children often relate more readily to stories in which the characters are gentle animals, "Right to Be Wanted, Right to Be Loved" conveys its theme through Mother and Father Rabbit and their little adopted daughter, Allison (Bunny) Rabbit.Allison Rabbit is confused, angry, and afraid when Mother and Father Rabbit tell her she was adopted.They help her lose her confusion, anger, and fear and regain her feeling of security as a member of the family when they explain to her that they wanted her from the very beginning and that she will always be loved by them.She realizes she has a right to be wanted and a right to be loved-and that it is right, a good thing, to be both wanted and loved.

    “All right.” Zach dropped his pizza and sat up more. “If you guys really want to know—I can control fire and electricity.”Splash!Kaaren had just spit out her water; it sprayed primarily on Justin, but Alex fell victim to it as well. Zach wiped off his arm.“WHAT IS YA PROBLEM, GIRL?” Justin yelled, picking up his napkin to wipe himself off, Alex doing the same, exasperated.“This is the second time today!” said Alex. “Why do things always have to happen to me?”“Zach?” said Kaaren, ignoring the others. “Did you just say you can control fire and electricity?”“Yeah. Thanks fah apologizin’, Kaaren,” said Justin sarcastically. “Zach, don’t ansa her—she might spit again.”“Yeah,” said Zach. “Those are my powers. Why? What’s the big deal?”“What’s the big deal?” said Kaaren, turning away momentarily as if she were offended. “Zach, you have two active powers!”“Yeah. So?” said Zach.“Wait. Let me get this straight,” said Alex. “So you can…zap people who annoy you?”“Sure. If I wanted to.”“Hm....” She pondered. “My own personal little Taser.”Kaaren watched her with concern before turning back to Zach. “Well, let me explain this much to you, Zach. My mom told me that marcils with two active powers become great—very great. I really believe that once you get older, you’ll go far. Further than anyone can imagine probably.”“’Kay. That’s enough,” said Justin, vexed. “Shut it, Kaaren. Are you socially impaired? Don’t you see you’ve freaked Zach and myself out enough! You ain’t no fortune tella! Now could ya just stop showin’ off fah once and eat the food ya ordered?”“Well excuse me for trying to be helpful,” she said, taking a bite from her pizza crust and then dropping the crust on her plate.“Yeah, well ya not bein’ helpful—ya bein’ annoyin’. And that advice won’t lead ya t’ nowhere but prison.”Alex made a slight grin.Kaaren noticed. “Alex?”“What? You did just slobber all over my face.”Have you ever constantly shocked yourself with electricity or been so angry at someone you accidentally set them on fire? Well, that's maybe not the case for most teenagers, but it is in the case of Zach and his friends.Unfortunately for Zach, who only wants to be normal, he finds that his ever developing powers are just simply out of his control. After Zach nearly burns his entire house down, he is told that he possesses the abilities of fire and electricity. He ends up being sent to Oshmane, a whole new school meant to teach students how to mentally and physically use their powers. It is a society filled with innovative technology and Zach will find out that ships that fly and cars that drive by themselves do exist. Not only that, but teenagers can play sports with fire balls and display other powers that transcend all comprehension. Zach and his friends Justin, Kaaren, and Alex will discover the many secrets of their newfound world, and will be forced to accept that the choices they make with their powers truly are capable of affecting the rest of their lives forever…Go to http://dlperry90.wix.com/zachofoshmane to learn more.
