“‘AAAUUUKK!’ A pterodactyl flies over my house. The bright reflection from its orange wings almost blinds me. This happens every morning at seven o’clock. Just like an alarm clock...A VERY ANNOYING ALARM CLOCK.”The first day of summer vacation and already Johan Kristensen has an incredible mystery to solve! Set on an invisible island, north of Norway, this once Viking vacation spot...Kortdagbyen Island is about to propel Johan and his friends into an amazing adventure filled with poisoned pterodactyls, secret hidden caves, a kidnapped friend with Down Syndrome, and the discovery of a priceless treasure.Travel with them on an unique journey of possibilities in Johan and The Secret Caves by Bonnie Solino.

“In my head, I saw myself zipping down the road, checking the map and matching it up with the mile markers I expected. One, two, three, four, five.... I had a good idea of what lay ahead.“ "But life put up a little detour in the form of one beautiful boy with a smile I couldn’t get enough of. That side road wound away, and I couldn’t see beyond the first turn." Katrina Crawford has a plan for herself, and the first step is getting the heck out of Highland, Iowa. Unfortunately, she still has one year left of high school before she can pursue her dreams of costume design at the college she’s set her heart on. The problem with plans, though, is that life has its own ideas. Ethan Clark is king of Rockford Community High School and is so far out of her league, it would be a fantastic joke if she could bring herself to tell it. A triple threat in music and the son of a Christian minister? Yeah, not even in Trina's dreams would he have a reason to speak to her. Ethan, however, seems to see things a little differently. And he sees her differently, too. That's gotta be her imagination, though, right? Life certainly loves a detour, but once you step off the road, how do you get back on?

Experience an International Best Indie Book Award winning story - but then - discover for yourself why this rhyming kids book about a curious Sunbeam is generating world-wide attention. It’s far more than a story. To better digest the full meal deal, you’re invited to experience the 12 week “5 Star Self-Confidence Toolkit” that will assist in taking full advantage of all the unique special features that transform this “kids book” into an interactive, relationship healing, gratitude and self-confidence building, emotion balancing, family health and happy home system. You may be curious and wondering, “Why didn’t somebody think of this sooner?” But then you’ll remember, and just be grateful!!In the coloring book version, let your inner artist shine as you co-create a family keepsake, since each artist is invited to sign and date their own coloring page. But don’t finish coloring the page just yet!Instead, get really creative! Rather than just letting the child take over the rest of the book, pass it around to the other adults and older siblings (?) to start coloring their own page before gifting the book to the child for their birthday or special occasion. Then, on subsequent visits from grandparents, aunts, uncles, family friends, etc, they’ll have a coloring project to work on together that can be used as a good excuse for some one on one, relationship building “talk time.” Strengthen family ties with low-tech “grandparent friendly” solutions… and build that love into the book! What do you think? Cool eh? But wait, there’s MORE!Imagine a bedtime story the entire family can participate in at every reading, regardless where they are in the universe? This is part of the plan of having the whole family participate in the coloring book. Grandparents will be right there every night while still hanging out in Arizona!How ‘bout MORE, you ask!?Ok! I say!In both the coloring book and the full-color ‘story’ book version, after the story you’ll find the “Shining Moments” pages which act as the bedtime story reader’s cue to ask the child the most important question of the day, which is: “What was your brightest Shining Moment of the day?” You can write it down for them or use the included “Shining Moments prompting questions” to assist in remembering the brightest one.These recorded highlights of the child’s best moments will often come in handy as dark and gray days naturally occur from time to time and… like a life raft in the storm, the child will always have a record of not only many of their best ever moments written down to re-read and remember, they’ll also have a record of family artwork and words of wisdom or prized family memories written down from all of their loving, caring friends and family members they can return to and rely on, again and again.This ‘record of evidence’ can save lives! Designed to be a system that brings an end, once and for all, to this age of bullying and all it’s tragic consequences, your comments and feedback are welcomed and encouraged if you have an idea of how to make The Adventures of the True Sunbeam and the “5 Star Self-Confidence Toolkit” more effective. I am grateful to the people at www.BestIndieBookAward.com for their insight to the needs of our next generations and for their encouragement and acknowledgment in choosing The Adventures of the True Sunbeam as an International Best Indie Book Award winner. Thank you!“Uncle Mark” Olmstead
