Pages : 396
Book Description
Like any good soldier's son, Frank was an adaptable youngster. He moved with his family from fort to fort, country to country, accepted each change, and was ready to move again. In 1960, his father was ordered to Fort Huachuca, Arizona. The desert garrison was the fifth Army post of Frank's childhood, and the first post he never wanted to leave. Here at age ten, he was best friends with Flavio, who saved his life from deep waters and helped him hunt for Huachuca Canyon gold. Here, too, Frank took a liking to Emily, a captain's daughter who chased dust devils and spelled well. In Arizona, Frank's father tested and improved the Army's early drones, and his mother worked hard to keep the family happy, healthy, and together. For Frank and his three brothers, the friendships and vast spaces of Fort Huachuca made it a perfect playground. Then in 1963, when his father received orders for Vietnam and told the family it was time to move again, Frank was so alarmed he wrote President Kennedy to ask that the orders be canceled. Tumbleweed Forts celebrates a youngster's joy in a desert full of life. It's a story about family, friendships, life's surprises, and all those special places that find a home in our hearts.

Book Description
The Adventures of T and T is a parable that teaches children (and adults) some important life-lessons through two ostriches. The main characters want MORE in their lives. The ordinary just won't do. They get more: more then they ever imagined from sources they never expected. The real adventures began when they heard a voice saying: "I am your Guide, your Companion, the captain of your adventure. Go with Me or don't go at all. You decide. If you go with Me, things will go well. If you don't, watch out for trouble or go home. What do you choose?" T and T's answer started with, "We choose to follow You." The result: the world changed. So dear ones, do you want more? You, too, have a choice to make. I will say you won't be sorry if you accompany T and T as they are Guide-d. Enjoy!
