Books with author Walter Blair

The passing of our beloved ones can be emotionally, physically, and spiritually devastating, specially during this era of the COVID-19, global pandemic. Discover the awe and mystery of how a 10-year-old girl name, Alicia is able to become a Superhero, when she finds trust and confidence in her fourth-grade dual language teacher, Mr. Anderson. As a bilingual student in the New York City School System, she struggles with deep social-emotional issues such as anxiety, depression, despair, grief, and loneliness. How does Alicia overcome these negative factors that we as adults experience and battle with each and every day? The love of a caring, compassionate, and nurturing mother can be the ``silver lining in every dark cloud.’’ However, Alicia’s dream finally comes true when she goes on an imaginary journey to the Most Beautiful City. It is your decision as the reader to believe, or not to believe that there is a celestial place, where our believing beloved ones will one day inhabit eternally. God’s eternal refuge, where there is no more pain, sickness, weeping, or dying. Discover the majesty, beauty, and splendor of what she actually saw and experienced that miraculously changed her life.

"Johnny Appleseed, Davy Crockett, Pecos Bill, Paul Bunyan and John Henry have all become heroes of American folklore. Some of them, like Crokett, were real, but all have become the subject of tall tales. This is a folksy history of the United States, told as if the characters were all real. This panoramic (if completely untrue) history begins with Columbus. . . . En route to its end in the 1940s (where traditional American heroes are enlisted to fight in World War II), it covers the great and small events of our national history, including the overlooked, but important ones, such as the invention of the prairie dog."—Washington Post Book World
