"No one writes like Timmy Reed; he has a haunting, unique voice that sticks hard and fast in your head. Miraculous Fauna is freaky in the very best way. You'll glide straight through to the tender and enchanting end." -Jessica Anya Blau, author of The WonderBread Summer and Drinking Closer to Home "Miraculous Fauna is nothing less than a miracle of a novel: beautifully strange and richly moving. Timmy Reed continues to create worlds that I long to get lost in, and this novel is no exception. Start reading, and soon you'll want to get lost in Miraculous Fauna too." - Laura van den Berg, author of Isle of Youth and Find Me "Timmy Reed's sense of detail and description astounds me and makes me jealous, that he threads so much of that through this Miraculous Fauna is nothing short of, well, miraculous. Baby Rachel is a beautiful monster and the novel is full of great compassion. Miraculous Fauna is one of the most fantastic and one of the most fucked up novels I've read in years." - Michael Kimball, author of Big Ray, Us and Dear Everybody
A literary coup: the publication of a recently discovered and specially illustrated Ted Hughes poem for children, lost for over fifty years. Timmy was a paddle-boat, sound as a gong, Not a worm in his timbers, fresh paint all over. He was hale as a whale and twice as strong, And he sailed on the peaceful river. So begins the tale of Timmy the Tug and his subsequent adventures as he escapes his moorings and explores the high seas. Timmy struggles to be helpful but doesn’t always succeed despite his best efforts. However, by trying and trying and trying again, he at last saves a beautiful ship in distress and so rediscovers his sense of pride. Originally written in the mid-1950s and only recently rediscovered, this lyrical poem by Ted Hughes, created to accompany a story that was conceived and delightfully illustrated in watercolor by his friend Jim Downer, is presented here as a facsimile of the original manuscript.

Most people who have lost a child write books about how to cope with the child's death. Author Lori Plegge has taken a different perspective on losing a child. Instead of writing about how to cope with the death of a child, she has decided to write a story about her son's life. When Tomorrow Starts Without Me is a true story about the life and death of a young man named Anthony. No matter how hard Lori tried to raise Anthony right, he made some bad choices in his life and those bad choices led to his death. When reading this book you will experience every emotion possible, you become a part of the story. When Tomorrow Starts Without me is not just a sad story about the death of a 19 year old boy but it also tells you funny childhood stories along with some near death experiences Anthony had. Even though the loss of a child is a very tragic thing, Lori has managed to take that tragedy and turn it into something positive to help others.

You will find anything from purple hull peas to jalapeno cornbread, chocolate pie to frog legs, Dutch oven recipes to gifts in a jar, roadkill to potato soup.

These recipes bring back childhood memories when our families would get together and have home cooked meals. Now a days, people don't want to cook from scratch because it is so much easier to just go out and get fast food. I miss the days of home cooked meals. I hope these meals put a smile on your face, bring back some childhood memories, and will allow your families to spend some quality time together. Enjoy!!!
