Before they were known as the wicked ones, they were two sisters fighting to escape their mother's iron rule. Drizella and Anastasia only know one thing for certain: they never want to end up like their mother, Lady Tremaine. When their father left them as young girls, he took their family fortune and their mother's dignity with him. A few years and one deceased stepfather later, Drizella and Anastasia only know their mother as the bitter and cruel head of the house. But the sisters promise each other that they'll chase their dreams and never let their hearts go cold. Then, on the cusp of the royal debut party--their one chance to impress the Prince and live up to their mother's expectations--the sisters at last get a glimpse of what life could be like outside of Lady Tremaine's intentions: Drizella discovers a love of science, and Anastasia sparks a secret romance. But escaping their mother's manipulations will be no easy task. Would it be simpler for them to become as wicked as she is to survive in such a cruel world?

A Cricket Came to Church
One Sunday morning, where I attended church, a cricket got inside the church building. It was very quiet until we began singing, then it decided to chirp as we sang. However, when we stopped singing, the cricket decided to keep chirping. We all got very tickled at that little cricket trying to chirp while the pastor was trying to preach. The louder he spoke, the noisier that cricket seemed to get. One of the members finally picked it up and put it outside. Even though it was outside, it still chirped loud enough for us to hear it. That's how this story came about. I hope you enjoy this story. After I wrote the first part, I realized that there are those of us who know God has called us to do a work, but His timing for that particular work may not be just yet. The moral of this story is to encourage you to earnestly pray before you do anything and seek guidance from the pastor or other leaders in the church. Tell them your desire and ask if they would help you pray or for advice on beginning the work. Discuss with them what you believe the Lord has called you to do, and then continue to pray until you know God's will. It may be that what you want to do requires some experience or training before you can do your best for the Lord. Sometimes we think we are ready to do something, but when others suggest we wait a bit, we can get discouraged. I encourage you to seriously seek the Lord and keep serving Him until you know in your heart what to do. I hope this book is not only entertaining but helps someone along their faith walk. Blessings, Ruby Weeks
