Sporting red hair and freckles, she lived up to every inch of her tomboyish name. In A Girl Called Tommie, the author spends a year in the life of this remarkable girl as she learns valuable lessons in honesty, responsibility, and ultimately the truth about a God that loves her. You will laugh with Tommie as she meets her new best friend Lucinda, a naive city girl who knows nothing about the country, and when her pet bluejay Jake turns out to be a mommy. You will sympathize when Tommie comes down with the measles, and when she learns a painful lesson about breaking in new shoes. You will smile with her as she gains a new baby brother, Bill, and becomes valedictorian of her graduating class. Through it all, she continues to search for Biblical truth as her Seventh-day Adventist relatives send her literature, and at the end of the school year, she gets an opportunity to visit them. "Now I'll have my big chance to see what Adventists are really like... I can go to church with them. Now I know that God is really looking out for me." This book is the first in the series.

Hoping to regain some faith in his own goodness, he turns his attention to Tommie, an awkward and unpopular eleven-year-old girl. Lamb is convinced that he can help her avoid a destiny of apathy and emptiness, and even comes to believe that his devotion to Tommie is in her best interest. But when Lamb decides to abduct a willing Tommie for a road trip from Chicago to the Rockies, planning to initiate her into the beauty of the mountain wilderness, they are both shaken in ways neither of them expects. Lamb is a masterful exploration of the dynamics of love and dependency that challenges the boundaries between adolescence and adulthood, confronts preconceived notions about conventional morality, and exposes mankind’s eroded relationship with nature.

Download or read book The Star Creek Papers written by Horace Mann Bond and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2011-12-01 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Star Creek Papers is the never-before-published account of the complex realities of race relations in the rural South in the 1930s. When Horace and Julia Bond moved to Louisiana in 1934, they entered a world where the legacy of slavery was miscegenation, lingering paternalism, and deadly racism. The Bonds were a young, well-educated and idealistic African American couple working for the Rosenwald Fund, a trust established by a northern philanthropist to build schools in rural areas. They were part of the "Explorer Project" sent to investigate the progress of the school in the Star Creek district of Washington Parish. Their report, which decried the teachers' lack of experience, the poor quality of the coursework, and the students' chronic absenteeism, was based on their private journal, "The Star Creek Diary," a shrewdly observed, sharply etched, and affectionate portrait of a rural black community. Horace Bond was moved to write a second document, "Forty Acres and a Mule," a history of a black farming family, after Jerome Wilson was lynched in 1935. The Wilsons were thrifty landowners whom Bond knew and respected; he intended to turn their story into a book, but the chronicle remained unfinished at his death. These important primary documents were rediscovered by civil rights scholar Adam Fairclough, who edited them with Julia Bond's support.

I love you Mo, and I don’t want no one else having you but me. If I can’t have you, no one can. I ain’t gonna allow the next dude to keep getting a taste of what belongs to me. You belong to me. I belong to you."" Moriah Washington has it all. The perfect life, home, and anything that a girl could ever want. To most, she has the perfect man in her fiancé, Damien Carter. So why had she been able to fall into the arms of his nephew, Isaiah Carter, so willingly? Being crazy over someone is known to be deadly. Deadly in the sense that it can drive you insane, knowing how one person can control your emotions with a wink of an eye or a simple breath. For Moriah Washington, being crazy over someone she knows she’s not supposed to have any connections with could send her deeper into a sticky, messy situation. But finding out that the one man who she had ever really loved could just be a “heterosexual” in disguise is sure to send her straight into the arms of another. Her entire world falls apart after finding her fiancé, Damien Carter, with another man in their home. As a devastated Moriah tries to come to grips with all that has gone wrong in her life, she decides to do the one thing that seems best for everyone; she runs. Moriah Washington swore on everything she loved and believed, that no man would ever disrespect her. When Damien does exactly that, Moriah is heartbroken and completely devastated. Knowing that she herself hasn’t been the best wife by creeping around with his nephew makes Moriah run, feeling ashamed and shocked at all the drama. But trying to run further away from the one man who is falling in love with her and the one man who warned her never to leave him leaves Moriah confused, conflicted, and scared. Scared because she knows she’s fallen for the man that she isn’t engaged to. What’s a woman to do when she’s so crazy in love? Isaiah Carter knows that he’s got it bad for Moriah. Initially, he thought he didn’t care about seeing her with Damien. But then, things started getting real, and he realizes he isn’t going to be able to cope seeing the woman he loves with another man. He’s finally managed to squirm his way out of the grips of his uncle’s dangerous business and lifestyle. But he finds himself distracted because of one reason and one reason only—Moriah. He can’t deny his feelings for her and refuses to give up on the woman that he feels should be his. After forcing her to choose, panic sets in at the realization of her choosing Damien. When she fails to respond to his messages and calls, Isaiah decides to leave her alone. But when an unexpected visitor has shocking revelations to tell him, Isaiah goes after his woman and vows to be with her. All the while, Damien Carter is also on a search to find his fiancée, determined that nothing or no one will stand in his way. Two Carter men crazy over one woman? This surely can’t end well...
