Book excerpt: Famed spoken-word poet Laura Dockrill's hilarious read-aloud about an outraged baked good! Oooohhh . . . not you again! AGGGHH It’s so bright! . . . Close this book this very second, you nosy noodle! Cookie has woken up on the wrong side of the bed and is very angry. You want to know why? Well, you’d have to keep reading to find out, but now Cookie’s calling you annoying and telling you to mind your own business. If by chance you do stick around, you might hear about a certain roommate’s terrible musical skills, why you should never let your barber try out a “new look,” how it’s impossible to find a hat that fits a cookie, and why an ice-cream parlor that’s out of your favorite treat can be a source of desolation. Then there’s the matter of a hungry bird who tries to snack on you. . . . Propelled by quirky humor and woes that every young child can relate to, Angry Cookie suggests that sometimes the best way to cheer up a grumpy lump is simply by being there — and lending your ears.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sandra, a timid woman, doesn't see her value in this world. The multitude of assaults on her have diminished her self-worth, value, and ability to see herself as an asset. Those relationships portrayed her life as loving and safe. She knows there must be something better; that life she lived couldn't have been genuine love. Fear of her past has made receiving anything real seem impossible. The continuous picking at the wounds from her past keeps them open and susceptible to infecting her, which is just what Keith, her ex-husband, wants. He will do whatever it takes to keep her down, crush her spirit, and keep her where he can manipulate her. The only important thing in her life are her children, but believing she's not worth anything better has kept her from leaving the pain and suffering behind. She struggles to believe if real love exists. When she meets Jason, feelings that she has never felt before expose themselves. Letting him get close to her, she realizes how beautiful her life could be once the healing is complete. Can she trust him, or is he just like the others, using her as a tool? She has never fully trusted anyone. If she continues living in the direction she's going, chances are her kids will get sucked into a life she swore they would never have to experience. She has to let go of what she knows and start trusting people. But to have never trusted before makes it complicated. But he seems different. He lights a spark in her she never knew was there. Can she be sure of the process before her, or should she stay in what she knows is real? Pain.

Download or read book Strawberries and Crime written by Elle Brooke White and published by Crooked Lane Books. This book was released on 2021-10-12 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Elle B. White's delightful second Finn Family Farm mystery, farmer Charlotte Finn and her sleuthing baby pig are neck-deep in strawberries and crime. Things are finally growing smoothly on the Finn Family Farm. With the help of caretakers Joe and Alice Wong and farmer Samuel Brown, Charlotte Finn is starting to feel at home at the Santa Barbara County produce farm she inherited. But all is not strawberries and cream: A blight is destroying young berry plants. Worse, another mysterious death is shaking Little Acorn. The victim is grizzled, cantankerous Linc Pierce, the only farmer in Little Acorn whose strawberry crop was fruitful. Charlotte and her old friend Beau Mason find him hanging from the rafter, an apparent suicide. But a cursory search turns up a half-eaten sandwich. Who eats before he kills himself? Chief Goodacre suspects foul play. Her prime suspect is Beau, who exchanged words--and worse--with Linc earlier in the day. Meanwhile, Little Acorn's farmers point accusing fingers at one another, recalling Linc's suggestion that someone sabotaged their strawberries. As Charlotte searches for clues to exonerate Beau, she finds something on Linc's workbench not buried in dust. Could this be why Linc's strawberry plants are alive? And, perhaps, why Linc is dead? Now, if Charlotte and Horse--the farm's baby pig with a bottomless stomach and an insatiable hunger for sleuthing--can't root out the murderer, they, too, may end up dead and berried.

A relative newcomer to town, she needs his help convincing the locals to try her Fresh Foods Organics produce—and Zac needs to satisfy his preteen daughter’s pleas to get out and have fun. Fake-dating Sophie will kill two birds with one stone, at least for a while—unless he gets addicted to the sweet pleasure of his beautiful competitor’s company... Sophie can’t stand Zac. Or maybe she simply can’t stand Littleton Farms beating her in sales every week.

But despite their all-natural attraction, Sophie’s past has left her wary of any man—even one as charming as Zac. Besides, he’s got trust issues of his own. If anything real can blossom between them, it’s going to take a whole lot of patience, persistence...and passion.

Angus Lordie’s dog, Cyril, has been stolen, and is facing an uncertain future wandering the streets.

But as Sera begins to piece together the importance of her bloodline and the true meaning behind the foreboding prophecy, it becomes clear that everything that has happened and is yet to come is much bigger than Kolis and his dark obsessions. They cannot help but wonder exactly how much influence the Fates have had and what their ultimate goal is. What Sera does know for sure is that they can trust very few—including her. A battle between the gods is brewing, and heartbreaking losses are imminent with the true Primal of Death strengthening. With a family of the heart willing to battle by their side, can Sera and Nyktos stop Kolis before he destroys the realms, or will it all disappear in a fiery inferno of blood and ash? And the line between justice and vengeance has never been so thin.
