It's football season in West Deerfield and the town's in a frenzy: Will the high school's Golden Bucks reclaim their former glory? For Sevi Norwood, WDHS' newest counselor, the pigskin panic is but a noisy backdrop as she struggles to find her place on a hostile faculty and prove herself a worthy replacement for their former counselor, the recently deceased and highly venerated "Miss Ola" Leonard. When her beleaguered principal attempts to force her into "virtual dismissal," when a mysterious girl commits suicide on her front steps, and when a student aide reports nightmares of the perfect "Miss Ola" burning in hell, Sevi attempts to do what all good counselors do: make it better. Will she succeed, or will her first year as a school counselor be her last?
Collected here are the complete love poems of May Swenson -- poems full of kindness, of sensuousness, of gentle affection, of love satisfied. As Maxine Kumin writes in her foreword to this collection, "the majority of Swenson's love poems are human you-and-I poems, exquisitely tender and understated." Culled from Swenson's published poetry as well as from her unpublished manuscripts, the poems in this collection provide an intimate glimpse of one of the most beloved American poets of the twentieth century, "a poet of dazzling gifts" (Joyce Carol Oates).

Synopsis coming soon.......
The stories of Grandpa Pirate - as told for his grandchildren, when they grow up. An eyepatch can change your life. Tales of growing up in the Army, working in the business world, and some stories about life in church. Most of the stories have a moral, or at least a point.
This book is a creative non-fiction based around letters written by two sets of brothers to their sister during World War 2. God, prayer and family is the underlying theme found throughout the letters. The nearly 300 letters best tell the story and include laughter, hardship and perseverance from both home and abroad during the most tested time of this young family, the nation and the world. The letters and stories naturally progress over the family's involvement in the war and in service as if the five primary writers were sitting around the kitchen table conversing after a Sunday supper. This is a story about all of us. A percentage of all proceeds will be donated to the City Mission of Cleveland. May God Bless You All.

The mass protests that shook France in May 1968 were exciting, dangerous, creative and influential, changing European politics to this day. Students demonstrated, workers went on general strike, factories and universities were occupied. At the height of its fervour, it brought the entire national economy to a halt. The protests reached such a point that political leaders feared civil war or revolution. Fifty years later, here are the eye-opening oral testimonies of those young rebels. By listening to the voices of students and workers, as opposed to those of their leaders, May '68 appears not just as a mass event, but rather as an event driven by millions of individuals, achieving a mosaic human portrait of France at the time. This book reveals the legacy of the uprising: how those explosive experiences changed both those who took part, and the course of history. May Made Me will record these moments before history moves on yet again.
