Currently, the movie based on the book is available for free streaming during the month of June. Please, if you are able, watch it before the first class. You can stream it on YouTube, iTunes, Amazon Prime Video and Google Play. The book is available through Amazon and other book vendors; however, it and similar titles are in demand right now. It is available on Kindle and Audible as well. To assist you, we will send out chapter summaries each week to those who register.
