This storybook will take you through unusual situations, adventures, unexpected incidents, funny incidents, affinity relationships, and unexpected encounters. This story recorded these unusual adventures. You, however, should decide whether you can possibly endure this mystical story.

We all look at people and think we know them, but it sure would help us truly understand them if we could go back and see their life at different points of times so we can see what they have been through: their joys, their struggles, what made them who they are. In Eighteen Years: Seth, you will be immersed into the life of a foster kid named Seth. The story is arranged so you, as a reader, can jump to different times of Seth's life so you can build upon your knowledge of what Seth has been through as well as glimpses into the paths Seth still has to endure. You will know what Seth has been through in his life and how it shaped who he was, and who he is.You will be on an emotional roller coaster as you live Seth's life as a foster kid. You will experience the hopelessness and drain of not having his own family, his real mom; followed by friendships and caregivers that give him hope. You will see the beauty of people in Seth's life that give him love and support, but then you will see the reality of abuse and extreme loneliness as well. All lives are tough, but wait until you learn about Seth's and what he overcomes and what he becomes!We all have a story-a complex story. I hope that as you read Seth's story, you will look at each character and ask yourself, "e;I wonder what has made them who they are."e; It is an exercise I believe we all should learn to do in real life. There is so much that makes each of us who we are. The people and their own stories, our environment and circumstances, and the influences are endless. Get to know people, invest in their stories, and understand their stories. Hopefully, that may change your story!

Bunny Flu Flu is a precocious little rabbit who loves life and often learns life's lessons the hard way. I started writing her stories over seven years ago when I would be inspired by one of my grandchildren. There is a little of each of them in many of Bunny Flu Flu's adventures. What started out as a series of poems slowly birthed itself into the idea of a book with illustrations to capture the hearts of parents and their children. A wonderful young man named Edwin Faulkner assisted with bringing Bunny Flu Flu to life when he sat down with colored pencils and sketched the first illustrations. She's as adorable as I imagined her to be and each of her critter friends come alive as they journey through the pages of the book with Flu Flu. I hope you enjoy each of her escapades with me and who knows She might just teach us a thing or two along the way. Enjoy with my sincere pleasure, Cheryl McClellan

Emma and Zoe's father was a professor of geology at the University of Michigan, and he had gotten a Professor Coolage notes on how he believes that Porcupine Mountain is a dormant volcano and when it erupts, it will trigger earthquakes, which will trigger the Keweenaw fault, which runs along the bottom of Michigan, and if triggered would shove Lower Michigan into Upper Michigan, and Michigan will become an island. Their dad, along with Francheska and Sadie's, studied the mountain and checked for any changes. Francheska, Sadie, Emma, and Zoe decided to try out this new path that had been built the last year. Halfway up the mountain, they stopped at the picnic area and started having lunch when these two girls walked up to them and introduced themselves to Francheska, Sadie, Emma, and Zoe,Ashlynn and Aubrey told Francheska, Sadie, Emma, and Zoe that their parents came to Porcupine Mountain; their parents wanted to bring them and their annoying little brother, Zachery, to the mountain to get away from the distraction of the big city and spend some quality family time. Francheska saw a path from the path that had just been made. The girls decided to take it to see where it led. The girls met a hairy boy their age named Zeek. A large black cloud showed up, and lightning hit the ground; a bear came out of the woods ready to attack them. Zeek had a flasher and flashed the bear, and the bear ran away screaming. Zeek took the girls to his house, more like a mansion, once belonging to a Professor Coolage, who left the home to the Thomlanes. Zeek's mother and father were nervous at first to have the girls at their home but ended up enjoying them. The girls got trapped up the mountain for three weeks because of fires and storms. Emma and Zeek really liked each other. The events that happened changed the girls' lives, as well as Michigan, forever.
