'Bedtime' is a children's picture book that was written by Nanette Newman and illustrated by Flora Daneman. Oh, sleepy time and a chance to dream 'Bedtime' is a story written as if a poem and even something else for a good night's sleep and pleasant dreams or a wish for a parents wish for their child. The words are written throughout the book as to me a breeze that blows through the clouds and trees that are floating by. It also has a sing-song manner about itself for as you read the words and enjoy the pictures it is quite relaxing. Flora has drawn the pictures using it seems muted colors and blending the colors blue, purple, tans, browns and a few primary colors. My favorite pictures if I had to choose would be and are when the mom is holding the baby with the teddy bear and the book along with the last page with the sleeping baby and the teddy bear. This is a book of love and hugs.

If Grace is Dead I Killed Her
Why do people bully? T.G. Starr has written a teen novel entitled 'If Grace Is Dead I Killed Her- Teen Bullying Gone Bad'. This is the story of a character named Maddie who has so much angst in her that so goes too far in her teasing of another girl over something that happened that really did not happen. Maddie is the head girl of the 'Scarlet Squad' a group of girls who seem to follow whoever is doing the wrong thing. This is a period in everyone's life that requires a lot of patience that at the time we do not have a lot of this. T.G. Starr has written a story that will tug at your heart and make you remember your high school days and trying to fit in somewhere and making various right and wrong decisions. This would make a good group discussion reading.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
