Can you imagine being born without an imagination?RAMSEY BARRETT has never daydreamed of discovering a strange land, slaying a fire-breathing dragon, or even becoming a fireman. In fact, Ramsey has never imagined anything. But it's not that he doesn't want to dream; it's that he can't. Doctors believe Ramsey is one of five children born without an imagination, and two of his four attempts at imagining sent him to the hospital.But his imagination opens at age 12 with the assistance of Dr. Bell-the lone Pediatric Imagination Specialist in the world-and emerges with an unexplainable realness. However, imaginations have a mind of their own and Ramsey's transports him on reality-transcending and death-defying adventures that, somehow, affect reality. And, being the last of the five children, Ramsey's role is to lead the alliance of kids to protect Truth. But Dr. Noso-a former accomplice to Dr. Bell-has other plans and intends to commandeer their imaginations, regardless of the danger. Ramsey, along with the other kids, enters a race through time to keep Dr. Noso from affecting Truth and altering history.
McKinney's very first settlers began arriving from Kentucky, Arkansas, and Tennessee in the early 1840s. Collin County was created by the Texas legislature on April 3, 1846, and due to a provision violation requiring the county seat to be within 3 miles of the center of the county, McKinney replaced Buckner as the seat in 1848. The vote deciding the new seat, however, went in McKinney's favor primarily because flooding kept many citizens from casting ballots. On March 16, 1848, the state legislature passed an act to name the new town in honor of Collin McKinney, one of five original draftees of the Texas Declaration of Independence. Today McKinney is one of America's fastest growing cities and has seen a population boom from approximately 16,000 residents in 1985 to more than 120,000 in 2010.

In The Texas Meningitis Epidemic (1911–1913): Origin of the Meningococcal Vaccine, two physician authors present the dramatic medical history of a monstrous southwestern disease epidemic. They also describe the development of the intraspinal antimeningitis serum treatment for curing the disease and the meningococcal vaccine for preventing it. The authors bring the events to blazing life by skillfully drawing on original texts that evoke the grit and grace of everyday people who united to vanquish a brutal disease in early twentieth-century Texas.
