  • I Think Something Is Tickling My Toes and Why Can't We Dance Too?: A Two Chapter Continuation Of The "GEE! A Story From The Forest" Series

    Grandpa Hill

    Paperback (XLIBRIS, July 29, 2014)
    IMAGINATION IS A WONDERFUL THING. IT WILL ENABLE A CHILD TO TURN A GROUND BALL INTO A HOME RUN OR DREAMS INTO REALITY The progression from PICTURE book to CHAPTER book is normal and effective in enhancing the use of IMAGINATION. Imagination eliminates the initial necessary crutch that pictures provided. Once the picture is planted in the mind, our children will be able to devote their concentration on the written word without the distraction of the picture. Illustrations, of course, are very effective in initially approaching a new subject, but the reading skills will hopefully develop more rapidly while concentrating on the written word. In developing the new readers' vocabulary, we should remember that a DICTIONARY or THESAURUS provides definitions and synonyms of WORDS not PICTURES, and will be often used tools in the future of our kids. Therein lies the primary goal in the evolution from picture book into chapter book format, while embracing the necessity of introducing the love of nature and science into our "GEE! A STORY FROM A FOREST" series of books. My kids taught me that. Grandpa Hill
  • "Gee! A Story from a Forest"

    Grandpa Hill

    Paperback (XLIBRIS, Aug. 23, 2013)
    What motivated the evolution from a personal BLOG to a series of children's books? With every venture into the outdoors, we find some new wonder of nature, be it from the changing seasons or the change in environment. There is always something new to find, so I elected my BLOG to share the pleasures I have absorbed from my frequent wanderings. I have recently decided to "evolve" a portion of my writings into a children's level series. Only because I believe that children need some additional prompting into the vocabulary of science and nature and their curiosity is the key to their success. With nominal help from teachers, mentors and especially parents, curiosity may have killed the cat, but it will certainly build the child. I felt that these discovered wonders should be shared with the children before the wonders pass them by. Simple but challenging reading may require some mentoring to start, but that is exactly what I meant to create. Grandpa Hill (E J)

    A REVIEW OF GRANDPA'S PTSOO REPORTS By P. TrevellianHave you ever pondered these important questions?•Am I happy doing exactly what I'm doing?•Am I living with the people I want to be with -- in the places I love most? •Am I making all the money I need or want?•Am I achieving all the goals I once set for myself?•Do I have reasonable goals now --and a plan and time-frame for achieving them?Ten years ago I was in dire financial straits. In fact I was technicallybankrupt - as a result of a number of business failures. The end resultwas I lost my house, had no money, and was $55,000 in debt. What Iremember most about those dark days, was that each failure in turngenerated another failure. It was as if I was in a downward spiral. Itseemed there was no hope, no escape.Finally when I had no options left I stumbled upon a brilliant way out.The catalyst was reading the old original inspirational book “PT”by W.G. Hill. Later and more current versions of this book were titledBye Bye Big Brother and PTSOO by Grandpa. The practicalimplementation -- exactly how to make a substantial invisible incomewithout having a job was PTSOO. This is what we are offering you today.This reports, standing alone, gave me a different view of how I couldlive my life. The reason this reports so impressed me was that itrevealed several things I didn’t know were possible:1. I could live and work in any country without paying income tax – legally and without any permits, college degrees or local licenses.2. I could escape the heavy hand of regulation/oppression by simplychoosing a more hospitable jurisdiction than the country of my birth,becoming a P.T.This “PTSOO” idea grabbed me by the throat. I had been pondering onhow I was ever going to escape my problems and pay off my debts: Theharder I worked the more I was taxed and regulated. I was angry atthe idea the government could tax and punish me – just for tryinghard to be a good, productive person. How could simply accumulatingand hiding assets abroad be a crime? With these ideas in my hands, and his specific suggestions in mymind, I suddenly found the motivation to get off my posterior andextricate myself from a mentally and financially depressed situation.In fact being exposed to PTSOO and the PT ideas was my “tipping point”It ended my downward spiral and set me free on a new and happy path.What happened to me could be of equal importance to you. It could beyour success story. I had long been a fan of self improvement books. Ihave an extensive library of such books to prove it! Thus, Iknew the power of the mind and positive thinking. It is essentialin the process of achieving what one wants in life. As soon as I experienced my PTSOO “epiphany” it created a cleargoal in my mind - to sally forth on a new course in life; to, at a singlestep, free myself from the shackles of income tax, alimony, lawsuitsand bureaucratic over-regulation. My new ideas took life and beganattracting into my life all the right information, circumstances,opportunities and people. Within a couple of weeks I had landed a new job, teaching andconsulting (tutoring) my students.That in itself turned my mind around to the positive. But it didn’t stopthere. Next, I had the idea of starting a business offering PTinformation – with the co-operation and approval of Grandpa of course.Nobody else was doing it at the time. Now there are many imitators –but few if any ever walked the (PT)walk as we did. And none of the promoters made their money byactually doing the stuff in the books & courses they were selling. From that seed of an idea grew my first publishing venture – a freeinternational online newsletter, offshore banking introductions, andPT coaching. I became, like Grandpa, a PT author and consultant.
