I'm All Grown Now, Papa
Nothing prepares a child to navigate life in the absence of a loving parent. Whist a formal education will never replace all that a parent would have wished to teach us, it offers the best prospect to open the doors that they would have wanted to unlock for us. -- Claude Louis, MD"I'm All Grown Now Papa" is a heartfelt story about an endearing young boy growing up in the rural mountains of Haiti, addressing a series of questions to his father (in heaven) who passed away when he was only 1 month old. His grandmother (Grann) has told him so many stories about his father and the striking resemblance between the two even at a very young age. The boy updates his father of the dynamics around the family, their struggle, their pain, their joy but most importantly his efforts to be a good boy, taking care of Grann and his mother in his father's absence. "I'm All Grown Now Papa" also shows how difficult it is for some boys and girls in certain parts of the world to receive an education and realize their dreams. All of the emotions and captivating natural beauty of the mountains are beautifully rendered through the illustrations of a gifted Haitian artist.100% of the profit from the sales will go towards educational areas of tuition sponsorship, teacher training, library development and building schools in Haiti starting with the school I attended as a child growing up in Qui Croit, Haiti. This is my story.

My Excellent Child
It was 2010; my second son had just turned seven and I was invited to a school meeting. I felt alone, worried and intimidated. My heart sank as I looked at the documents I had been given which outlined my son's inadequacies and inability to reach the anticipated milestones.
Sequential Dynamics
We will cover thirty-five advantages that children either directly or indirectly acquire from correctly measured discipline during their first years at home. Types of advantages will include earned, learned, gotten used to, realized, built, and motivation with things that can help them. Of these, I'll explain how two of the learned (understanding authority and the concept of expectations) are mentally retained by a child and how all three of the gotten used to advantages (comfort with others being in charge, with self-restraint, and with the difficult type of effort) transfer as personal and emotional assets to form their coping mechanism, which significantly helps them and their teachers starting in first grade. I'll also explain how these five things follow teenagers into the work force as their work ethic. Once this is completed, the two things that weren't learned at home and the three transferable liabilities that follow children into first grade as disadvantages, and again into the work force from being denied discipline become obvious.While explaining the above, I'll construct an equation by extracting evidence from commonly observed situations like the first interactions between a mother and her infant. I think you'd agree that emotions motivate a mom's attention and the smile from her infant is evidence that shows we're all born with emotions. Our born with variables will be placed in the top of our equation, and things we acquire from our discipline-defined experiences will be placed in the bottom. Once you have the completed equation, you'll not only be able to separate born with feelings from learned facts quite easily regarding this subject, but you'll also be able to identify where your perspective originates from (feelings or facts) when considering other controversial subjects as well.All of which will be respectfully presented and very simple to understand!

When I Was Your Age... A Mother to Daughter Journal
How many of us remember the story going - "When I was your age..." the rest of the story usually involved walking several miles uphill both ways typically to school or work at the age of 10, oh and I almost forgot the 10 ft of snow. Those stories usually had a point, though it may have been lost based on how absurd they started. Yet they remained with us and are important to carry on and pass down. Even if it's only for laughs. Those stories also remind us of who we are and/or who we wanted to be. Yet sadly our daughters may never know the woman behind the mom. Who we are - our hopes, dreams, failures, successes, disappointments, mistakes, triumphs, and let downs, all the things that make us, well, us. This is an import legacy that must be shared, if for no other reason than to leave a written word of us being here (hint: You Matter). We try to hide who we are sometimes from our daughters for fear that they will make the same mistakes or not see us in the best light. This only diminishes the great love and understanding that they have for us. Having gotten to know my mother a bit more as a woman was one of the greatest highlights of being her daughter. To see the strength and beauty in her vulnerability is the greatest gift that she ever shared with me and I wish that we had more time. This journal is my gift you- to use the time that you are given to share all that you are. This contemporary journal is for Mothers, Grandmothers, Moms to be, Aunties, Godmothers or any other woman that wants to share who they are as a person with those special young women in their lives. This easy to use journal allows you to tell your own stories in your own words and in your own way. Who you are beyond any label that is given you is a gift so I invite you to be brave, be vulnerable and share the gift of, When I Was Age...
October
Faced with increasing loneliness and mortality, Patty Pemberton is torn between a past she honors, a present she assumes is stable, and a future she doesn't know how to plan for. After a new friend disappears from her life, and as autumn deepens and the year's end closes in, she journeys into her community and the places and histories binding them all-and haunting her-until she arrives at what is most important while hoping her friend returns. Rich with characters and locations, as well as personal and public chronicles, October is a moving and compassionate meditation on life, love, memory, and death.Every day, I move between Saul and Ray. And although Ray has been gone for a while and I live alone, I am never alone because he and our images when we were together and Saul and his image have me. One photo greets me, like a face in a crowd, and the other image, more familiar over time, also comes and goes. Both photos have been with me at peaks, in valleys, and on the plains in between. I pass by them daily and nightly, month to month, but I should only have one.William Auten is the author of the novels In Another Sun and Pepper's Ghost and the short-story collection A Fine Day Will Burn Through. His work has appeared widely online and in print. williamauten.com

Consider the Ravens
She was taken away from the only home she ever knew.Could this be a new start, or was this a mistake?Sandy was born in a small town to a poor family. They did what they could to get by, but life was hard and money was tight. After the unexpected death of her mother when Sandy was only six weeks old, her grandparents assumed custody. Her father, an alcoholic, had been incarcerated and was not able to care for her.Happy where she was with her grandparents, Sandy grew into a healthy toddler with a zest for life. When Sandy was only three years old, there was a tragedy that changed the course of her life forever.Because of the circumstances that surrounded this tragedy, Sandy was taken away from her grandmother only to be placed with other relatives. These changes set the stage for her to develop serious eating and behavioral disorders.Because of her declining condition, the children's home became involved and she, again, was faced with having to make major adjustments. At five years old, the world is a scary place-a new home, new school, and new friends. Why did this happen? How could God allow this?Sandy's story is one of hope in the midst of uncertainties. God's constant provision demonstrates that God can be trusted in the most difficult of life's circumstances.
Questions You'll Wish You Asked
This journal deepens the grandmother/grandchild bond while creating a keepsake for when conversation is no longer possible. With journaling questions for a grandmother to answer that include: "If you could give your eighteen-year-old self a piece of advice, what would it be?" "What are your favorite parts of being a grandmother?" "If you could choose your last words to me, what would they be?" These questions will transport you from the daily routine into a time when the ordinary has been rendered sacred. Whether you're a grandmother looking to leave a legacy to your grandchild, or a grandchild recording memories of your grandmother, make time for the questions you'll later wish you asked: your future self will thank you. Commonly asked questions: Who is this journal for? The journal provides over 100 questions for a grandmother to answer for her grandchild. It makes a perfect gift for the first-time grandma of a new baby, keepsake gift for an aging grandmother, and thoughtful present for grandparents of all stages in between. Some adult grandchildren sit with their grandparents and fill out the journal while asking the questions: this invites thoughtful conversations, generational connection, and intimacy. Others choose to purchase the journal for themselves, fill it out, and later present it as a gift to their grandchildren. This journal can be an especially thoughtful gift for a grandmother who has lost her spouse; these individuals often deeply recognize the importance of recording thoughts and memories for their grandchildren. This journal is also a thoughtful gift for adult children whose mother may be struggling with early signs of memory loss, dementia, or Alzheimer's; asking these questions can jog a parent's memory, inspire thoughtful conversation, or simply provide a space to appreciate the grandmother who still remains. What if I have multiple grandchildren? Do I need multiple journals? Most of the questions in this journal are about grandma personally, but there are also questions particular to each grandchild. For this reason, most grandmothers choose to have one journal for each grandchild; this also eliminates the need to "choose" who eventually receives the journal. However, it's also possible to answer these particular questions separately for each grandchild within one journal. (One could split an answer on the 6x9 journal page provided, and use the blank pages included at the end of the journal if more room is needed.)

Questions You'll Wish You Asked
This journal deepens the grandmother/grandchild bond while creating a keepsake for when conversation is no longer possible. With journaling questions for a grandmother to answer that include: "If you could give your eighteen-year-old self a piece of advice, what would it be?" "What are your favorite parts of being a grandmother?" "If you could choose your last words to me, what would they be?" These questions will transport you from the daily routine into a time when the ordinary has been rendered sacred. Whether you're a grandmother looking to leave a legacy to your grandchild, or a grandchild recording memories of your grandmother, make time for the questions you'll later wish you asked: your future self will thank you. Commonly asked questions: Who is this journal for? The journal provides over 100 questions for a grandmother to answer for her grandchild. It makes a perfect gift for the first-time grandma of a new baby, keepsake gift for an aging grandmother, and thoughtful present for grandparents of all stages in between. Some adult grandchildren sit with their grandparents and fill out the journal while asking the questions: this invites thoughtful conversations, generational connection, and intimacy. Others choose to purchase the journal for themselves, fill it out, and later present it as a gift to their grandchildren. This journal can be an especially thoughtful gift for a grandmother who has lost her spouse; these individuals often deeply recognize the importance of recording thoughts and memories for their grandchildren. This journal is also a thoughtful gift for adult children whose mother may be struggling with early signs of memory loss, dementia, or Alzheimer's; asking these questions can jog a parent's memory, inspire thoughtful conversation, or simply provide a space to appreciate the grandmother who still remains. What if I have multiple grandchildren? Do I need multiple journals? Most of the questions in this journal are about grandma personally, but there are also questions particular to each grandchild. For this reason, most grandmothers choose to have one journal for each grandchild; this also eliminates the need to "choose" who eventually receives the journal. However, it's also possible to answer these particular questions separately for each grandchild within one journal. (One could split an answer on the 6x9 journal page provided, and use the blank pages included at the end of the journal if more room is needed.)

Autism in Adults
If you've recently been diagnosed with ASD, or think you might be, or you are close to someone with ASD, one of the things you will like most about this book is the way in which it challenges the idea of autism as a 'disorder' or 'impairment'. Instead, Dr Luke Beardon will help you to reframe what you feel, and challenge what you know, about being on the spectrum. He explains how autism impacts on the individual, and what purpose a diagnosis might - or might not - serve. There is a lot of myth-busting, and dismantling of the stereotypes and clich矇s around ASD and areas like communication, social interaction and relationships. Practical tips for undiagnosed adults will help you navigate things like school, work, study, parenthood and even to understand what happens when autistic people break the law. Above all, this book is a celebration of what it means to be autistic - of the passion, honesty, humor, lack of ego, loyalty and trustworthiness that make you, or your loved one, such an amazing person.
Bouki's Honey
Come share in the rich, Creole Culture of Louisiana, cher! Learn (French Creole) and laugh -- with the humorous, Creole characters "Bouki and Lapin" "The Creole Folktales of Compaire Bouki and Compaire Lapin" have a rich and fascinating history, hundreds of years old. The tales originated from Senegal, Africa and according to the historical, Louisiana Creole Plantation 'Laura', they were first recorded in the United States - in Laura Plantation's 150-year-old cabins. Lapin's adventures ('Lapin' means "rabbit" in French) soon went on to become the popular American Tales known as 'Br'er (Brother) Rabbit' - only 'Compaire Bouki and Compaire Lapin' retain the original, unique French Creole 'flavor'. (In French folklore, 'compaire/compair' means brother.) In various Louisiana stories Bouki is pictured as a donkey, raccoon or wolf. You'll get to meet 'Bouki the donkey', in "Bouki's Honey". Bouki was a 'hyena' in the original African folktales. The name 'Bouki' is a 'wolof ' word - 'wolof ' being both the language and the people of Senegal, Africa - and is said to mean, "stupid hyena". Some even say 'Bouki' is a play on words meaning, "bookish" (something the character never is). It is believed that the Senegal slaves brought to Louisiana, actually told the African-based stories of 'Bouki and Lapin' as code, to illustrate victory over the conditions of slavery - with Lapin humorously outwitting plantation owner, 'Bouki'.

Night Jasmine Tree
Night Jasmine Tree, a Somerset award-winning contemporary novel, describes the hidden backstory of an Indian man's immigration to the U.S. The high caste protagonist fell in love with a lower caste girl in college, but she was rejected by his very conservative family. They married, but deep emotional wounds continued to torment him even after they were well settled in the U.S. The past cannot be willed away. Later, the arresting stories of his childhood and youth he innocently tells his American grandchildren, reveal the silent torment and struggles that originated in India. These poignant and heartwarming stories, touching and sublime by themselves, provide the backbone of this novel-the author captures those breathless, quiet moments that make life worth living.How long can the protagonist carry on his playful veneer with the grandchildren? Will the past destroy him, or can he find peace?A stirring portrayal of 'East Meets West' and 'Past Meets Present.' The novel exposes a deeply ingrained ailment of Indian society-their caste system, which pervades every aspect of life with subtle destructive force. One cannot put down this story of rebellion against conservative caste barriers. Romance, inter-caste marriage, family conflict, sacrifice, loss, and inner suffering in the end lead to the ultimate rise of the innate human heart to overcome all obstacles of familial rejection to love and peace-family love so purely described, it will remind the reader of their own family. A cathartic novel of triumph of the human spirit-moving, realistic, and uplifting.The time frame of the novel expands from the 1950s to 2005 and takes place in Calcutta, India and the U.S. in Philadelphia, Ann Arbor, MI, and Bellport, NY. It describes childhood and youth in India, college romance, immigrant life struggles, settling and assimilation in the U.S.The protagonist's story of bravery and sacrifice describes the American Dream at its finest, while celebrating the beauty of India and the wonderful culture it holds despite caste barriers. Two appendices tell what happens 'after', leading the reader to pure joy.Discussion questions and an extensive glossary of Indian words make this novel a wonderful read but also a great gift to share-wonderful for all occasions. Excellent for school and college readings.

GOLD MEDAL WINNER for BEST SELF-ESTEEM Category in the GLOBAL BOOK AWARDS 2025. "Alena Dillon is one of my favorite writers and to read her journey through pregnancy is a great joy and heartbreak." - Amy Schumer My Body Is A Big Fat Temple, a memoir of pregnancy and early motherhood, follows a writer as she debates having children, miscarries, faces morning sickness, uncertainty, physical impairments, labor, breastfeeding, the baby blues, the heartache of not loving her son as she thinks she should, parenting through a plague, until finally (basically, mostly) blossoming into her new identity.
