Our message is simple: Dream Big, We'll Show You How.

Lester Clarkson and Billy Smith, together with John Clarkson, Lester’s cousin, were eager to start their summer vacation with an exciting escapade. The three friends decided to go visit the venue of the upcoming Hot Air Balloon International Fiesta in New Mexico, a day before the event. They got a free pass and tour because Lester’s father is one of the organizers. While they were having a tour with Jordan, Peter’s assistant, the three boys managed to sneak out from Peter. The three ended up hiding inside one of the hot air balloons. Lester thought of something and decided to fly and steer the hot air balloon since he has knowledge as well.  In the middle of their ride, heavy rain started to fall. Unfortunately, the rope from the hot air balloon that was connected to the ground was faulty. The boys’ hot air balloon ended up crashing into the unfamiliar woods of the Rocky Mountains. Will they be able to find their way home safely before it gets dark?

Among these biographies, readers will find exceptional and notable men and women across varying disciplines to instill a sense of purpose and goal oriented living from an early age. Discover how each life was shaped and transformed through passion, determination, grit.

    "Oh, Little Bun Rabbit, so soft and so shy, 
    Say, what do you see with your big, round eye?" 
    "On Christmas we rabbits," says Bunny so shy, 
    "Keep watch to see Santa go galloping by." 
    This delightful story tells of the Little Bun Rabbit who is befriended by Dorothy, a little girl.  She knows the rhyme and asks the little rabbit about it.  Bun Rabbit tells her that indeed, he sees Santa every year as he drives by in his sleigh loaded with toys.  One year Santa stopped to talk with him and ask if he would come to his workshop at the North Pole so he could use him as model to make toy rabbits for little babies.  He agrees and this is his exciting adventure with Santa.  That is why so many stuffed bunny rabbits are made and given at Christmas to be loved by children everywhere.
