About the Book Satire is a genre of literature where vices, follies, abuses, and shortcomings in humans and their institutions are held up to ridicule with the intent of shaming individuals, corporations, government, or society itself into reform. While satire is generally meant to be humorous, its greater purpose is generally constructive social criticism. Also in this Book The term “humorous fiction” refers to a novel-length comic story, which has the intention of entertaining through laughter and amusement at the comic situations or characters presented therein. Famous authors who have written comic novels, include P. G. Wodehouse, Henry Fielding, Mark Twain, and John Kennedy Toole. And in this Book Drama texts refer to the mode of fiction represented in the performance of a play in a theater, on radio or on television. Drama is viewed as a genre of poetry, with the dramatic mode being contrasted with the epic and the lyrical modes ever since Aristotle's Poetics (335 BC). The term "drama" itself derives from the Greek word meaning "action”. In the English language the word "play" or "game" was a standard term used to describe drama until William Shakespeare's time. The enactment of drama in a theater, performed by actors on a stage before an audience is often combined with music and dance. In opera, the drama is generally sung throughout, whilst in musicals it includes both spoken dialogue and songs.

Peek inside the mind of an autistic kid with the imaginative and creative children’s book, Adventures in Handom. This book is not about autism but tells the story of good versus evil and the importance of having a good heart. Beautiful and whimsical illustrations by the author really helps tell the story he created. My preschoolers have been enjoying “Adventures in Handom” at bedtime. It’s been a welcome addition to our little home library. The boys adore the vivid colors and the fun aliens shaped like hands. John’s story is well paced and engaging — my sons love the message of redemption, and of kindness winning over all. I appreciate that the story has action and intrigue that will grow with them! This is such a fun story by a talented young man who happens to be an excellent role model for my sons. - Gina M, Sp Ed teacher and mother of two, Windham NH“John Miller’s Adventures in Handom is a joy to read. The story of the people of Handom captures the innocence of childhood, with delightful illustrations in brilliant colors. The book delivers the all-important message to kids everywhere that conquering obstacles in life depends not so much on the darkness on the outside as the love that is on the inside. All children, including those with disabilities, will find inspiration between the covers of this wonderful tale of brotherhood, devotion and perseverance.” Peter C Raffalli, MD, FAAP, Child Neurologist, Boston Children’s Hospital/ Asst Professor of Neurology, Harvard Medical School.
