Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Enchanted Rocking Chair touches many hearts as it travels throughout many parts of the world. As you travel through the pages that give birth to this wonderful chair and as you meet the sweet and generous children that possess it for a limited time, it will touch your heart as well. The chair is born into a troubled world of war and pain, yet it manages to bring a measure of hope and happiness to all the families that come in contact with it, and they in turn affect the lives of the people they meet. It receives its enchantment from the cloak of a tiny man whose life is saved by a kind and generous grandfather who lives in a small village in France. In appreciation for the kindness of the old French gentleman, he leaves his bright red cloak to be used as the seat of the rocking chair, and that gift endows the chair with the gift of magic. Destined to stay only a short time with each child, it changes their lives and the lives they affect for all time. The love they show others is partly captured by the chair, and it becomes even stronger as it travels the world. But there is a dark side to the magic of the chair. Dark forces object to the use of magic by mortals and cause pain to humans as well as to the magic folk. You will laugh and perhaps cry as you read these stories to your children or to yourself. You and they will learn that you don't have to believe in magic to have it touch your heart. You will not put this book down, nor will your children allow you to do so until you read the last word of the last chapter, and even then, you will want to know where it will go from there. The Enchanted Rocking Chair will enchant your life.
