The Village of Godcha
Barbara Bowie
About the Book
The Trolls and Elves learned to live together in peace generations ago, far, far away on the planet of Venus. When that peace started to break down and there were signs of turmoil and separation, a small group of Elders and their followers decided to get away from it all by taking off on their own. Upon seeking a safe piece of land and environment to settle, they founded “The Village of Godcha”. The Elders were elated to see everybody working together again, the Elves with their strong bodies and ability to put structures together speedily, and Trolls with their brilliant minds and ability to quickly solve any problem. When their perfect little world began to erode the Elders came together in prayer, deciding to have faith and trust that things will be different this time around and their world will get better. The Elders could see the light. Could that light be shining on two among them who are rejected and treated as outcasts, Elf Charrte, pronounced Chair-tee, and Mon Troll???About the Book

Khepera
Terrence Tom
About the Book
This book is designed to introduce children K through 12th grade to their ancient African history. The Africans in Kmt (Egypt) saw the sun as a manifestation of the living God. Atum is recognized as the first creator. However, after Atum the visibility of the sun rose in prominence. Their early perception was that the sun resurrects each morning at dawn. During the day the sun appears to traverse the sky and at dusk it disappears into the underworld. Khepera is anthropomorphize as the scarab beetle. The midday sun at its peak signifies RA. In the evening as the sun goes down into the underworld it is referred to as Amen – the hidden one.About the Author

I Can Do This
Laura Mae Murphy
About the Book
This book, these Stories, were intended to be used by anyone who has the ability to help these individuals fit in wherever they go. If teachers could use these stories to introduce the problem and possibly the solution to the students prior to the introduction of the student with special needs or problems, there wouldn’t be so much apathy in the world.In using animals instead of names, there is no chance of anyone misunderstanding and transferring any of these topics onto anyone specific.
I’ve tried to cover as many issues as I could: communication, deafness, blindness, birth defects, epilepsy, amputees, etc. But the most important goal is acceptance. There could be role playing (i.e., someone could be the cow or the beaver or the iguana). Interaction could play an important role in getting the message across.
About the Author
Laura Mae (Lewis, Murphy) was born in Philadelphia as number two of nine children. She and her family moved twenty-three times in seventeen years, and she often went to three schools a year. Each move brought challenges, trying to catch up academically while trying to fit in socially.Deafness runs in her family and she is raising a mentally challenged daughter, Dawn Rene, who has right temporal lobe epilepsy and is bipolar. At forty-five, she functions at a 4.6 level but her biggest handicap is that she looks normal and everyone expects her to be normal. She becomes flustered and sometimes doesn’t understand why they don’t understand.
