Little Notes on Autumn Leaves


Book Description

Drawing from a wealth of material produced over the course of more than thirty years, Frank A. Littles latest book: Little Notes on Autumn Leaves -- a Collection of New and Selected Poems and Quotes, displays the remarkable range of his Life-Learned Little notes based on his innate observation of the world around him. The introduction is beautifully written, but doesnt do justice to the powerful and unexpected emotions that are provoked by the remainder of this written art. Littles new book opens with quotes and poems from 2008 forward; each one reflecting on, and is inspired by, his life-altering incidental diagnosis of gastric cancer and his formidable unsuspecting follow-on treatment. Previously selected quotes and poems were chosen for their motivational impact on the author himself . . . surviving the seemingly unsurvivable, doing the undoable. Littles poems and quotes reflect the profound impact of his lifes observations. His written words captivate you . . . as they stimulate your innermost thought. Little Notes on Autumn Leaves reads like an elegant and sophisticated runway show where a seasoned fashion designer has finally shared his dearest and most precious garments in an artistic, cohesive expression of love for lifes cycle of changes and renewals. Quietly Powerful! This is Frank A. Little at his best.

The Bigfoot Files


Book Description

From the author of Hour of the Bees comes another captivating story that deftly blurs the line between reality and magic — and will leave you wondering What if? The Loch Ness Monster. The Frogman. Bigfoot. Twelve-year-old Miranda Cho used to believe in it all, used to love poring over every strange footprint, every stray hair, everything that proved that the world was full of wonders. But that was before her mother’s obsession with monsters cost Miranda her friends and her perfect school record, before Miranda found the stack of unopened bills and notices of foreclosure in the silverware drawer. Now the fact that her mom’s a cryptozoologist doesn’t seem wonderful — it’s embarrassing and irresponsible, and it could cost them everything. So Miranda agrees to go on one last creature hunt, determined to use all her scientific know-how to prove to her mother, once and for all, that Bigfoot isn’t real. Then her mom will have no choice but to grow up and get a real job — one that will pay the mortgage and allow Miranda to attend the leadership camp of her dreams. But when the trip goes horribly awry, will it be Miranda who’s forced to question everything she believes?
