The Adventures of Blue & Bollwinky By: CeCe Ryan Blue the dog has a great life. He gets nice blankets to snuggle in when it’s cold, fun trips to the doggy parks with his brothers and sisters, and, perhaps the best part of all, hugs and kisses from his owner, Carrie. One day while playing outside, Blue encounters a moose named Bollwinky, who becomes his special friend. They play lots of games together, until one day, when Blue realizes he has to go away with his new owner.
Very few of us go through life unscathed. We encounter hardships along the way and think How will I survive or why did this happen to me? Colette Aliamo has had her share of feeling broken, immobilized, defeated and hurt. Barely two years old, she is hospitalized for the potential life- threatening virus of polio during the 1950s epidemic. Enduring long separations from her family and frightening surgeries and procedures, she is left with little reserve to provide her emotional stability. Life at home with her family is equally unsettling. With a physically abusive father and an emotionally disturbed mother, Colette finds little solace in her world. Living with deep-rooted insecurities, her fears of being accepted set in quickly during her school years and beyond. Despite her self- loathing, she faces the world hiding behind the mask she has made for herself. Feeling she is living a lie, Colette attempts to find ways to validate her worthiness. After a failed marriage, she questions her self worth and chooses misguided paths to ease her despair. Family betrayals and chronic illnesses threaten to consume her. However, with an unyielding spirit and the help of her loving husband and good friends, she comes to unexpected revelations that allow her to unshackle herself from a predestined emotional breakdown.
Im called the Cimarron Kid. Dont let that scare you; I picked up the kid handle while I was growing up in the Yuma, Arizona, territory. Im the second-born son of the notorious outlaw and gunman, the Nevada Kid. My father ran with the Younger Brothers Gang, but after his seven years in Yuma prison, he got a little smarter and went straight, then got married to my mother, Ricki, a barrel racer. Im one of five boys raised on a big spread called the Flying T2 Roughstock and Cattle Company. My older brother, TJ, went to college and became a lawyer, and me, well, Pa laughingly considers me to be part of the roughstock on the ranch. I was born and bred cowboy tough. My gun is a lot faster than TJs and probably even faster than Pas ever was, but TJ is no wimp. He shoots accurately and can handle a gun almost as good as me, but then again, I had more time to practice speed. There is only one difference between me and my four brothers, which is that Im a chip off the old block and can find myself in more trouble than a woodpecker in a petrified forest. If you want to hear my story, you got to read the book. Sincerely, Cimarron Lacey Flying T2 Brand
