Good Stories for Young Boys and Girls

Uncle Rocky, Fireman, is a series of children's illustrated stories about the adventures of a firefighter and his two nephews, Ben and Luke.  Apart or together they fight fires, promote fire safety, rescue people, and help neighbors.  The books are goods stories for young boys and girls because the stories are free of bad behavior, the characters are friendly, honest people who enjoy helping their neighbors and the stories emphasize service to others and devotion to duty.  In addition, kids enjoy acting out the "Getting Dressed for the Fire" sequence and love to mimic Uncle Rocky as he gives his trademark answer, "Glad to do it!"
Feast of Memories

CDR Frank A. Erickson - Helicopter Pilot #1 On Jan 4, 1944, Coast Guard helicopter pilot #1, Frank A Erickson, set two new aviation records when he flew blood plasma from New York City to Sandy Hook, NJ. On that day, Lieutenant Commander Erickson flew the mission in weather that had grounded all other available aircraft and logged the first use of a helicopter for a ‘life flight” as the blood plasma was used to save the lives of several sailors. Erickson’s first helicopter flight “into the storm,” made good on a commitment he had made 3 years earlier as he watched sailors abandon ship and struggle and die in the burning, oil covered waters of Pearl Harbor; a commitment to find a way to lift sailors in danger off their ships.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"Jim, the books we purchased are quite worn now. Our boys really like them. They were impressed that we "actually" knew you. I will gladly review your new book....is it okay if I read it to the boys?
