Remembering Florence: Tales from a Railroad Town

For a town that once consisted of nothing more than a shed, a pine forest and a name, Florence, South Carolina, boasts a surprisingly rich history. From the ten foot bomb dropped on a Mars Bluff farm by apologetic Air Force pilots to a record-breaking seventeen-inch snowfall, this Pee Dee hub has seen plenty of extraordinary events and famous characters. Here, William Howard Taft enjoyed pine bark stew and Herbert Hoover visited Mikado Millie a world champion cow known for her prolific milk-making. Longtime journalist Thom Anderson lovingly recalls these hometown tales collected over thirty years of writing columns for the Morning News."
Florence occupies a huge space in American history, and that past left a lot of lingering spirits. A Native American "trickster" meanders the local swamps. In Mars Bluff, a ghostly guide offers tours of a beloved plantation. A dedicated worker in the former Jamestown area still haunts a dilapidated tobacco barn. At an abandoned boardinghouse, a spectral couple searches for a lost trinket. Author H.P. Bradley details these stories and more of the historic hauntings in the Magic City.

"My Florence" is a collection of striking moments drawn from the shared life of renowned Chicago photojournalist ART SHAY and his beloved wife, Florence. By turns casual and glamorous, pensive and humorous, the photographs start the day Art and Florence met in 1942, as 20-year-old camp counselors in the Catskill Mountains, and continue for seven decades. Former LIFE, Fortune, Time, and Sports Illustrator photographer, ART SHAY is famous for immortalizing some of America's most compelling 20th century figures, including John F. Kennedy Jr., Muhammad Ali, and Eleanor Roosevelt. But the story of Florence was Shay's constant beat. The result is a story that runs deep and reads as a call to joy and source of inspiration for lovers, family, friends, and the photographer in us all.

Fantastic Florence - It's NOT your fault is a series of books for children, each of which tells a story about a child, or children, experiencing different traumatic experiences. Florence is a wise and loving magical bag who hears the thoughts of children, and writes them messages when they are suffering. Florence assures the children in each story that the painful challenges that life is presenting to them are not their fault. She encourages them to speak to someone they trust about what is happening to them. Each story is designed to be a safe space for children to see themselves in the story's characters and is an invaluable tool for parents and caregivers, therapists and educators. The stories can open the door to the hard conversations that children need to have in order to begin the healing process. In A Story About Bullying, a young girl named Ella is being bullied by her classmates. Florence hears her pain and uses her magic powers to soothe Ella's anxieties by encouraging her to reframe the situation and reach out for help. Florence's brave, caring insights and message help Ella feel supported and less alone, and to realize that it is not her fault that she is being bullied. Children and adults are sure to fall in love with Florence as she gently helps children navigate the specific traumatic situation they are experiencing, but are too young to understand. Florence gives children a name for the trauma/s they are experiencing and, most importantly, she comforts children by telling them that it is NOT their fault when bad things happen and that it is okay to reach out for help.

One day the family put a home-made chocolate cake inside her and took her to a friend's house. And from that time on, she has been taken to many different places. Children and grownups fill her up with all sorts of wonderful and ordinary things.
Florence was born when a supermarket bag flew across Lesley Millard Zafran's windshield. The first moment she could, Lesley pulled into a parking lot and started writing a children's story about a marvelous, strong bag that bravely leaves her comfortable store to have wonderful adventures. What Lesley was not expecting was that this first story would lead her to write a series of children's books that also address the traumatic experiences that some children face. In these stories, Florence wisely and lovingly comforts children, and validates their feelings as they struggle with situations they are too young to understand.

Sometimes it seems only a nurse can bring technical information down to an understanding that an ordinary person can grasp. The Nurse Florence book series provides high quality medical information that even a child can grasp. By introducing young kids to correct terminology and science concepts at an early age, we can help increase our children's health literacy level as well as help to prepare them for courses and jobs in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. We need more scientists so I hope that many children will enjoy this book series and consider a job involving science.
