Many children have no idea where their food, clothes, or toys come from. In my story, students are surprised to discover the magic of corn crop, the joyful and giving nature of cows, and what cotton offers us. www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-charms...

Inviting angels
A random feather flutter
tells me they've arrived.

True. Standing on my back deck, praying for angelic clarity, this beautiful #feather landed in the grass in front of me.
