    Hey Ma, Where's Willie? by I. M. Bukstein	- "No, sir, we wasn't fooled by them lights in the night sky. Illusionations, we call 'em. Funny though, Willie disappeared that night!" 
    Just where Willie went, I ain't sure. I wonder sometimes, especially around harvest because that is about the time we found Willie was missing. I should pine after him a little. He was my son, but somehow I never took a hankering toward Willie like I ought to. I got five other boys a lot smarter, bigger, and nicer to look at than Willie ever was, besides four girls that's as pretty as they come. But when someone disappears, like Willie did, even if you don't care particularly much you kind of wonder at times just how it came about. 
    Willie was near about fourteen or thereabouts. I never could remember for sure. He wasn't the oldest and he wasn't the youngest. But then with ten kids and ten ages to keep track of a man can't be expected to remember. Anyhow he'd be about sixteen now, since it was two years ago that it happened. 
    It was a bad time for him to be skipping off, too. We were in the middle of harvest. We had corn to get in, besides which we had a bit of a scare around here with lights flashing in the hills and funny noises at night. The fellows who know call that sort of thing by some fancy name. "Mass illusionations," I guess they'd say. 
    Well, one night we sat down to chow. We'd worked hard all day, so we were filling ourselves as full as we could. Ma is a right good cook when she bothers, and the girls do all right by themselves. When we finished, Joey pops up. I think it was Joey. I can't rightly remember. When you got ten kids and ten names to keep track of you're bound to have a hard time remembering. 
    Anyhow, one of the kids pops up and says, "Look, Pa! Willie's plate is all full up with chow and no Willie."

    THE GIRL BROWNIES – ASHDOWN FOREST, ENGLAND 1919 
    Book 2 of 6 The Mystery of the Rusty Lantern 
    The summary of this first book in the series is as follows: 
    In 1919, six adventurous Brownies—Lulu, Minnie, Lottie, Agatha, Bernadette, and Beryl—discover an old lantern in Ashdown Forest with a cryptic riddle etched into its base: "Seek where the raven guards the past, beneath the stones where shadows last." Following clues to a raven-haunted monolith and a hidden stone circle, they unearth an 1859 surveyor’s journal and smuggler’s treasure. The journal leads them to a legendary healing spring, where they witness its miraculous properties first hand. Their findings attract local historians, revealing the lantern’s ties to forest wardens and Napoleonic-era smugglers. Celebrated as junior historians, the girls return their discoveries to the village museum, proud to have preserved a piece of Sussex’s past. As they gather around their campfire, the restored lantern’s glow reminds them that the forest still holds secrets waiting to be uncovered—and their next adventure is just beginning. 
    I have worked very hard and meticulously to provide you with an enjoyable experience, the initial opening credit music, “Joyful Journey”, which does run to approximately 2 minutes sets the scene, so to speak, recorder, tambourine,guitar and accordion in a folk/classical and cheerful mood. The closing music, “Bloom”, ends the tale on with more of the same at about 2 minutes and the same musical instruments etc. but more of an ending feel and looking forward to the next story in the series.  
    The story and music itself runs to just about 14 minutes and is narrated in my wife's voice, Claire, who actually was a ranger guide!  
    I do hope you and your family enjoy this story, please let me know.

    Perennial New York Times bestseller and trusted voice Dr. Gary Chapman teams up with Dr. Jennifer Thomas to share relational survival skills for every teen.Relationships matter. But they’re also hard. Conflict is a reality in life that can lead to isolation, anger, and broken relationships. With the proper tools, however, teenagers can learn to respond to conflict and experience meaningful community. They don’t have to be controlled by their frustrations. Instead, they can manage and even reverse the effects of anger.  A Teen’s Guide to Conflict—a natural complement to the bestselling, A Teen’s Guide to the 5 Love Languages®—helps teenagers tame the powerful emotion of anger, apologize (and receive apologies) in ways that actually work, and handle difficult or damaged relationships. Gary Chapman and Jennifer Thomas’ new book with Paige Haley Drygas answers questions like:  What’s the difference between good and bad anger? How can my anger accomplish positive change? What if I’m angry with myself? Are there different ways to manage conflict—friends and family vs. people online? When do I make things right, and when should I set boundaries?   Why do some apologies fall flat?   
    Readers discover a straightforward overview of the 5 apology languages, two assessment instruments, practical examples, and tips for real life situations.  Teens’ relationships matter. The principles they learn in this book will equip them for relationships that thrive now and in the future.
