True stories of the growing up experiences of four
children, three boys and one girl, ages ten, six, four
and two. The author’s first two children spent their
weekdays with their grandparents, allowing the author
to work. When the oldest reached age four the author
decided to remain home and devote all of her energy to her
children. As the family grew to include two more, the author’s
love and attention expanded so that each of her four always felt
as though they were primary in her eyes. The author hopes you’ll
enjoy the six true stories in this book.About the author:
Donna Giuffrida first penned drafts of the six stories in this book 15 years ago, 10 years after stepping away from a very promising career in the insurance industry to remain home to raise her family. Never looking back, Donna was relentless in her devotion to the intellectual, mental and physical development of each of her four children. The stories contained herein are factual recounts of some of their early experiences. This book is therefore dedicated, by her loving children and husband, to Donna, for whom this publication is a surprise, to chronicle and commemorate her selfless, steadfast, unfettered love.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Richard Haesche
THE TALETELLER
Whose stories have…
a beginning to grab you,
a middle to hold you
and an ending to haunt you!Richard lives in a small town in Connecticut. He spent most of his life working as an accountant and field auditor specializing in finance and taxes. It wasn’t until after he retired from the work force that he found the time to prioritize his creative aspirations by becoming a compulsive writer. After graduating from The Institute For Children’s Literature in Westport, Connecticut, he began writing Young Adult and Middle-Grade Juvenile novels. His writing environment consists of a small room, a big desk, a computer, a couple of printers and his inventory of paperback novels.
Anxious to begin writing, he wrote his very first young adult novel in thirty days. After revising, editing and formatting phases were complete, his first manuscript was sent to publishing houses all around the United States, only to return each time accompanied by the standard rejection slip.
Undiscouraged, he wrote five more novels, both young adult and mid-grade juvenile plus a large collection of children’s short stories and poems, all of which he will soon begin to market on his website: www.kreativexpressionsonline.com
They will appear not only in paperback form, but also able to be downloaded as E-Books for people to read on their handheld PDAs. Additionally, he will be marketing his works on CDs and, if things go well, perhaps as audio books.

God and I and Elvis
By Ilona Bauer
God and I and Elvis, a striking title if ever there was one, merely hints at the eerie, complex subject matter of Ilona Bauer’s memoir. Chronologically, her story beings in post-WWII Bavaria, moves to New York and Memphis, and concludes in Tupelo, Mississippi (Elvis’ birthplace). But this is more than a travelogue.
While a teenager, Ms. Bauer hears, falls in love with, and eventually meets Elvis Presley, who was a soldier stationed in Germany at that time. What begins as a teenage crush takes on far-ranging spiritual aspects, as the author comes to recognize the singer’s degenerate lifestyle and struggles to reconcile this with her ardent Protestant faith. This obsession motivates her to travel to Memphis, where she marries “Little Elvis,” a Presley hanger-on and wannabe, by whom she has four children.
The story of this unsuccessful marriage, and the impulsive, disastrous second marriage to a physically and emotionally abusive man, by who she has her fifth through seventh children, all of whom wind up in self-destructive situations of their own, is the largest, and most affecting, section of the book. The end of the story, to date, is a welcome and well-deserved dose of tranquility after an extraordinary raw slice of life.
About the author:
ILONA BAUER was born in Würzberg, Germany in 1941. As a twenty-one year old, she managed to find a job as an au pair in Scarsdale, New York. A year later, her employment obligations fulfilled, she moved to Memphis, Tennessee in hopes of re-establishing contact with Elvis Presley. Eventually, having survived marriage to two less than suitable husbands and mothered a flock of seven rebellious children, she moved to the quiet little town of Tupelo, Mississippi, where she found the time and peace of mind to write her memoir.FREEDOM.

GOD Blessed Them for the Journey
By Corrine Lund
God Blessed Them for the Journey is a book that can be read and used as a workbook over an extended period of time. Included are a variety of creative experiences that Corrine continues to use on her own journey.This is a workbook that is meant for anyone and everyone… people who would like to explore the power of the creative
process, whatever their challenge or life situation or creative abilities. This is a story of Corrine’s journey with breast cancer, travelling along a path that led to a deeper sense of awareness and joy. It’s a story of being awakened to God’s surprises in her life.About the Author:
Corrine Lund, author of God Blessed Them for the Journey, is a wife and a mother and newly retired after being an art educator for over twenty-five years. Corrine is also a cancer survivor who used her creativity for support throughout this challenging experience as well as to “have a little fun” on the journey.
“I’ve had an opportunity to go beyond simply learning skills and techniques. I have been able to explore and experience the healing power of being involved in this creative adventure. Life is a process… often a process with many surprises. I’ve learned that exploring my creative interests has made my life more meaningful and even healthier. It has also helped give me insight into who it is that God created me to be on this amazing journey.”
In the process of creating one of her many journals, Corrine added her handprint to each journal page. She squeezed ample amounts of acrylic paint onto a large paper plate, choosing colors that seemed appropriate to that day’s entry… some days called for bright, cheery colors while other days were dark and moody. Occasionally, there was even a need for a touch of glittery gold paint! Corrine wiggled her open palm around in the wet paint, mixing the colors and then stamped a full handprint on the page, nally writing around the handprint. Somehow, becoming physically involved with the paint was almost as therapeutic as the actual writing. “Feeling the thick paint on my hand seemed to relieve the stress of the moment and sometimes added to the playfulness of the process,” Corrine described.
