Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Snowy & Andy are orphans. Andy just lost his parents to his island: The Slitherlands' occasional earthquakes. Upset by the loss of his parents, Andy had two choices-both of which could affect him as a person. His first choice is that he could live with his Uncle Arne Anaconda: The Prime Minister of The Slitherlands. The other involves living on the old Orphan Asylum atop one of the islands' winding hills-neigboring Little Slitherville. Andrew had a bad experience from his Uncle Arne. Arne Anaconda is mean like a snake-both figuratively AND literally! Luckily for Andy, he was raised by his mother Anne Anaconda-the mirror opposite to Arne Anaconda. As a matter of fact, she is his twin sister! Andy decides to go live at the Orphanage, and he meets: Snowy! They form a beautiful friendship, and he decides to help improve her. Unfortunately, Andy seems to have his hands full (if he had any), helping Snowy to become a more respectable young lady. As the story progresses, he sees the problems she goes through: most notably, the bullies! Almost everyone in the Orphan Asylum-who lost their parents-use her as a means of projecting all their pent-up anger, and frustration to her disadvantage. Andy is not only her friend and mentor, but also her bodyguard; but since he is a snake, he has no hands (don't worry-the bullies don't have hands either)! The Story of "Live, Laugh, Love: Snowy & Andy" encourages living every day, laughing their troubles away, and loving each other. The book is in comic book format as it can help warm children up to reading much easier. Together-even in times of turmoil, Snowy & Andy may be orphans, but at least they have each other!

Book excerpt: Andy Frecka invites you to ride along in the backseat of his succession of variously reliable vehicles as he travels the back roads of a Russia that you have never seen before. You'll learn about the culture (don't "just look" at the car dealership), the language (complete with sounds that do not exist), and the customs (a steam bath in a banya is both a cure-all and an expression of welcome). You'll also learn about the people, from Andy's lively and resilient family to his resourceful comrades-in-arms to the surprising and interesting people he meets in his mission work. Meet the mysterious spindle maker, the kind customs agent, and the optimistic taxi driver as you walk, hitch-hike, fly, and drive your way across Russia with a regular guy who has a knack for the odd meeting, the chance observation, the apt phrase, and the ability to laugh at himself. In 1995 Andy Frecka left behind a promising career as a scrap yard security guard to follow God's call to missions in Russia. Now ten years in full-time ministry in the city of Perm, he enjoys not just telling, but living stories together with his wife Rachel and their four small children.
