Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The colorful boyhood of a popular author comes to life in this personal account Imagine learning from a nosy classmate that your mother is having yet another baby. To Ralph's classmates, news of one more Fletcher baby is just "scuttlebutt." But for Ralph, the oldest of nine, being part of a large family means more kids to join in the fun—from making tripods in the woods and "snicking" up the rug, to raising chicks and even discovering a meteor (well, maybe). It doesn't feel like there's life beyond Marshfield, Massachusetts. Then one day Dad's new job moves the family to Chicago, and there's so much Ralph has to leave behind. In this humorous and captivating memoir, Ralph Fletcher traces the roots of his storytelling.

Book excerpt: Marshfield, a seaside retreat famous for its beaches, hotels, and ocean views, has always shone in summer. It was the home of some of the country's leading families, specifically the Winslows and the Websters, and worldrenowned concert singer Adelaide Phillips, as well as the site of the first radio broadcast in America, engineered by Reginald Fessenden at Brant Rock on Christmas Eve 1906. Today the town's various villages retain the identities that defined them in the early 1900s, from hardworking Green Harbor to beachy Brant Rock to serene Sea View to the rolling Marshfield Hills. Marshfield has celebrated its heroes, survived the great Ocean Bluff fire of 1941, and, most importantly, preserved its history through several historic preservation projects around town.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: READ THE SECOND EDITION TODAY: Visit promotional web site at: www.mrsmarshfield.com What would you do to protect a son or a daughter from systematic abuse by an unstable parent or adult? Find out what one father went through, when he discovered his son suffered two episodes of weight loss totaling fifteen pounds or nearly twenty percent of his body weight. Mrs. Marshfield is the story of one father's attempt to protect his son from his mother, small town politics, and a cadre of professionals with an opposing agenda. This story begins and ends with a kidnapping. The author, and father of the child, takes you on a journey that no parent should have to endure, as he describes his ongoing odyssey with the Massachusetts probate system. Mrs. Marshfield takes the reader on that descent into hell, with descriptions of documented abuse, the professionals called upon to investigate and protect the interests of the child, actual courtroom testimony, the judge's decision, and the father's proposed and recommended reforms. This story will be a mystery for some and a true crime novel for others. A must read for any divorced parent, or married couple thinking about having children. Learn how the father, upon hearing his son is suicidal, attempts out of desperation to document the abuse, and the failings of the "probate industrial complex," with an on-line blog. See how the process is not about looking out for the interests of the child, but about enriching the professionals involved in this case. As this father asserts... "Children and the truth play a distant second or third to the financial interests of the court appointed lawyers, psychologist and therapist." Most shocking of all, discover, as this parent did, how school principals, doctors, and lawyers are willing to lie and cover-up to protect a local schoolteacher, who has repeatedly abused her child. The story is fast paced, and includes actual correspondence and legal briefs from the trial. A great read for any law student desiring to discover how the law actually operates. This is not a fairy tale and unfortunately, there is no happy ending. However, the father hopes that by telling his story, something can and will be done. This is one man's fight for his son and against the local establishment.

This book was released on 2018-11-13 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A heartfelt middle grade companion to Marshfield Dreams that captures the boyhood years of twelve-year-old Ralph Fletcher in relatable episodes of everyday disappointments and triumphs. As the oldest of nine kids, Ralph was often cast as another parent to his siblings rather than as an older brother; teetering between these two conflicting roles, Ralph longed to be home alone on a sick day, but hated the emptiness of feeling left behind. He loved to play sports with his neighborhood friends but resented the skillful victories of his younger brother. Thrust into the expectations of impending adolescence, Ralph was curious about girls, but embarrassed to take part in the school square dance. This satisfying memoir offers a snapshot of those pivotal moments between grade school and high school, all while tracing the roots of Ralph Fletcher’s acclaimed storytelling. Christy Ottaviano Books
