upon the sleeping earth, while far away from mortal eyes danced the
Fairy folk. Fire-flies hung in bright clusters on the dewy leaves,
that waved in the cool night-wind; and the flowers stood gazing, in
very wonder, at the little Elves, who lay among the fern-leaves,
swung in the vine-boughs, sailed on the lake in lily cups, or
danced on the mossy ground, to the music of the hare-bells, who
rung out their merriest peal in honor of the night. Under the shade
of a wild rose sat the Queen and her little Maids of Honor, beside
the silvery mushroom where the feast was spread. "Now, my friends,"
said she, "to while away the time till the bright moon goes down,
let us each tell a tale, or relate what we have done or learned
this day. I will begin with you, Sunny Lock," added she, turning to
a lovely little Elf, who lay among the fragrant leaves of a
primrose.

Victor has spent more of his life dead than alive. Just as
purgatory becomes too much for him, he learns of a HooDoo priestess
in Georgia who could grant him life again, but at a price. Before
she can grant his wish, he must collect the five most infamous
souls of Savannah. It won't be easy.
Experience the first in the epic series featuring the brave members of
Omega Squad--an elite team of clone commandos--fighting to protect the
Galactic Republic.
On a mission to sabotage a chemical weapon research facility on a
Separatist-held planet, four clone troopers operate under the very
noses of their enemies. The commandos are outnumbered and outgunned,
deep behind enemy lines with no backup-and working with strangers
instead of trusted teammates. Matters don't improve when Darman, the
squad's demolitions expert, gets separated from the others during
planetfall. Even Darman's apparent good luck in meeting an
inexperienced Padawan vanishes once Etain admits to her woeful naivety.
For the separated clone commandos and stranded Jedi, a long, dangerous
journey lies ahead, through hostile territory brimming with Trandoshan
slavers, Separatists, and suspicious natives. A single misstep could
mean discovery . . . and death. It's a virtual suicide mission for
anyone-anyone except Republic Commandos.

My book has Seven short stories, things that are important to the
duration of life, I used animals to explain these stories. The
first one is if you have a friend, love him or her no matter if
they are different, and if they are hurt help them. Another is
about a young girls dream that made her happy, however, she had to
wake up. One is about a young man, that went fishing, and found two
friends. The next one is about a young lady and her friends by the
seashore. It is about a mother that didn't stop to talk too her
daughter about something she found. Communication with our children
is one of the most important things that we as parents can teach
them. The fifth story is that we shouldn't laugh at someone if they
are hurt, and if we can't say anything nice then we shouldn't say
anything. The sixth one is about a dog that was a bully, and would
boss the old, small, and one that didn't care. The last story is
about two bears one black and one white and how they cared about
each other. I hope you will enjoy these seven short stories and
that you will explain to your children, grand-children, and
great-grandchildren the importance of each short stories.
