Sinopse

In "Watermelon Mystery at Sugar Creek," Paul Hutchens invites readers into a charming small-town setting filled with colorful characters and engaging plot twists. This delightful tale is woven with elements of mystery and adventure, wrapped in Hutchens's signature storytelling style, which combines gentle humor with moral lessons. The narrative reflects the author's keen observations of human nature and small-town life, bringing depth to a seemingly light-hearted story, as young detectives navigate secrets surrounding a stolen watermelon. The book is set within a rich literary context, drawing on traditions of mystery and youth adventure narratives prevalent in mid-20th century American literature. Paul Hutchens, an acclaimed author known for his compelling children's literature, crafted this engaging mystery during a time when family-friendly storytelling was pivotal in adolescent moral development. His background as a writer and minister informs his ability to concoct stories that simultaneously entertain and educate. Hutchens's experiences and insights into community dynamics have inspired his vivid depictions of Sugar Creek, echoing the importance of friendship, trust, and problem-solving. "Watermelon Mystery at Sugar Creek" is a must-read for young readers and adults alike who seek warmth in storytelling infused with mystery. Its blend of humor, clever writing, and relatable characters makes it an excellent choice for family reading or classroom discussions. Hutchens's work not only promises to engage but also encourages young minds to think critically about themes of honesty and community.

    What if the greatest threat to your safety was the one who swore to protect you? 
    He took the job for its simplicity. A bodyguard with no name, no backstory, and no questions asked. His instructions were clear: watch, wait, protect. No one told him who he was protecting, and at first, he didn’t care. It was just another job. 
    But this was no ordinary assignment. 
    His boss trusts him completely, blindly even—an unwavering faith that defies all logic. Yet, deep down, he knows he doesn’t deserve it. He’s the first to admit he’s not the smartest man, and he’s certainly not the most qualified for the job. But that doesn’t matter. What matters is keeping his boss safe… at any cost. 
    He’s willing to do anything—lie, manipulate, even sabotage his boss’s dreams—all in the name of safety. Because in his mind, the world is a dangerous place, full of risks that are better left unchallenged. And if that means his boss lives a life half-lived, well, that’s a price he’s willing to pay. 
    But what happens when the man he’s protecting starts to wake up? When he begins to see the cage built around him, crafted not out of malice, but out of misguided love? 
    What happens when the protector becomes the prisoner? 
    A Simple Guard is a psychological thriller that takes you deep into the mind of a man whose greatest enemy might just be himself. A masterfully woven tale of loyalty, control, and the thin line between love and obsession. 
    Will he let go before it’s too late? 
    Or will his loyalty turn lethal? 
    Dive into this gripping tale of trust, paranoia, and the shadows lurking within. Perfect for fans of psychological thrillers and mind-bending narratives.

    Skin Care Tips - Some...

    The skin’s importance is often overlooked by about a half of the world’s population – mostly men – although this is rapidly changing. Even so, most of those who do worry about their skin are mainly interested in the areas that show like the face, neck and hands. 
    However, the skin is not only the largest organ on the body (human or otherwise), it is also the membrane that literally holds us together. On a recent visit to a dermatologist, I described a small cut on my hand as ‘nothing serious’. The dermatologist’s response surprised me. “Your skin is not only there to keep bodily fluids in”, he said, “but to keep pathogens out. Every time that barrier is damaged, it makes it easier for bacteria to get in. Bacteria can cause infections such as sepsis and blood poisoning which can be irreversible and so lethal”. I am no longer so blasé about nicks and scratches as I once was in my silly, macho male way. 
    Skin is also very sensitive to what is going on beneath it, which means that acne, pimples, dry or oily skin are early warnings of underlying problems. The problem for most people is that they treat the symptoms – the outbreak – rather than the underlying cause. This is hardly surprising, since skin care companies make hundreds of billions from selling creams, potions and lotions to mask these symptoms. This effectively allows the condition to continue. 
    Having said that, continuous, regular skin care started from an early age is a good thing. However, you need impartial information from a specialist before deciding what kind of skin care regimen to follow. Just doing what one’s parents do, or gathering a basketful of products from the local pharmacy is not good enough.  
    Do your own research, and ask the right people, before you decide on how to protect yourself.
