Many of my stories are about my life while living in a Jacksonville, Florida orphanage. However, many of the stories are inspritional and uplifting. Many have been published in major books, magazines and in children's textbooks all over the world. Some were chosen and are now being used (for free) in the testing of school children in the United States, France, England, Australia and Canada.
