Little Karl is a curious child, always wanting to know everything about the world around him. As he walks through the city with his mother, he asks question after question about what he thinks is wrong with the world and offers his own solutions to make sure everyone has shelter, food, education, work, and comfort. Many parents, teachers, political scientists, church leaders, and others in leadership roles have trouble explaining Marxism or Marxist theory in a way that children can understand, especially without allowing personal political bias to come into play. Little Karl frames Marxist theory from the perspective of a child and the world they see each day. Follow along with Little Karl as he and his mother encounter a homeless man looking for work, a skinny puppy starving from lack of food, and many other characters who make the young boy question why everyone can't live as comfortably as his family. The core thoughts of Marxist theory are presented through the voice of a young Karl Marx, allowing a new generation to explore Marx's concepts without preconceived fears. Little Karl allows readers of any age to understand Marxist thought.

The story of RKO--the small studio that produced such film giants as King Kong, Citizen Kane, and the Fred Astaire/Ginger Rogers musicals--is revealed by a woman who grew up among the great stars of Hollywood's "Golden Years": journalist Betty Lasky, the daughter of Jesse L. Lasky, one of the founders of the movie industry. Here you'll find an intriguing tale of executive greed and politics through changing hands, the stock market crash, and the demands of the superstars. This wheeling and dealing produced big money for its financiers, yet, ironically, it seldom tainted the high artistic quality of RKO's films. Immerse yourself in the highly controversial saga of the founders, financial manipulators, creative geniuses, and Hollywood users: Joseph P. Kennedy, Howard Hughes, Louis B. Mayer, David O. Selznick, Cecil B. DeMille, Pandro S. Berman, Floyd B. Odlum, David Sarnoff , Gloria Swanson , Orson Welles, Edward F. Albee, Merian C. Cooper, Dore Schary, and, of course, film pioneer Jesse L. Lasky. Illustrated with nearly 100 behind-the-scenes photos, including some depicting the making of such films as Cimarron, Top Hat, The Magnificent Ambersons, and The Hunchback of Notre Dame.--Adapted from dust jacket.
