Nine Clouds To Heaven by Patricia Ann Farnsworth-Simpson Clouds float in and out of the sky, just like they do in our lives, But no matter whether misty, heavy and black, the sun is always shining above, Symbolically we must weather the clouds, be they light and misty or heavy and black, For they are part of life and it is through fighting the heartache and pain with loving faith, That we grow to be nearer God and the light above… Even on the darkest days the sun is still shining there above, like God’s love for you … So ride the clouds, till you’ve risen above them, then you’ll be in God’s light of love! These poetic words will help show the way….
When Pat became a spiritual healer and healing tutor for her local church, she first got her inspirations for writing poetry. Pat believed prayer helped very much and that all the poetic words she has written were truly inspired. Now with them being in print she hopes they help and guide others. 188 pages perfect bound, 8.5"x5.5" $19.99 CAD click the book to order your copy today!!!
cover image and inside art by Pat Simpson To See Pats Profile click here! Books Now Available!! Through our consignment program, we are happy to announce the addition of two more books to our store! Quest for the Troll Queen by Richard A Rousay II (Rickarou1)
Click Book To Order The Quest for the Troll Queen is delightful, action packed fantasy for the entire family. Matthew stumbles across a hidden cave and enters to get out of the rain. There he meets the Troll Queen, (a dragon in disguise) and is sent on a quest to help battle an evil sorcerer and return the Troll Queen to power. Along the way he is befriended by Cleo, the Troll Queen’s daughter; and Squeekers, a talking squirrel. The trio journey from adventure to adventure, meeting many friends and enemies along the way. Staying just ahead of evil, Matthew realizes that there is much more to himself than ever imagined, and with the help of friends he is able to find the magic hidden deep within himself. Southern Reflections by Madalyn McKnight Stanford...aka..Elmer Fudd
About The Book Life in all its dimensions is a story to be told and busyness detracts from the telling. There is an ever-growing movement of journaling, scrapbooking and blogging, reminiscent of children sitting at the knee of elders to hear repeated, the story of their preceding generations. It is pictures crudely rendered on cave walls. In my genealogy research I was ecstatic to find a story to go with the facts of an ancestor's life, putting flesh on those spare bones. It’s all a part of extending our lives and influence into future generations. It’s the pain that was segregation. It’s support and guidance of loving parents. It’s loved ones that went wrong. It’s the toll of wars. It’s the assassination of a President. It’s dreams we’ve had and pets we’ve loved and feelings. How we felt about everything that transpired in our lives. It's about sharing our lives with everyone we've met along the way. If you’re looking for writing like Dan Brown, James Patterson or Barbara Kingsolver you will be disappointed. This is a work of Prose, Poetry and Essay. If you seek a touch of deceased humorist and journalist Erma Bombeck, combined with a touch of the earthiness of Pulitzer Prize winning journalist and author, Rick Bragg, you're sure to enjoy the book. Read Southern Reflections for pleasure and a laugh or two.
If you have a book you would like to see in our store, please contact Ken at 1-866-902-6655 or email to jcowle_4@sympatico.ca New Release!!! Now Available !!! When I Grow Up by Robert Hewett Sr.

"Children understand a lot more than we adults give them credit for knowing. But one thing doesn’t change, children are honest, truthful and can tell you if they like or dislike anything they come in contact with in their daily life. These poems are meant to bring humor, compassion, and a learning experience through interaction with people, birds and animals. Hopefully, some moral guidance can also be recognized through the events described in these poem. My poems are almost always story poems. If a child smiles it pleases my heart." Robert Hewett Sr.
