The Good Democracy is at Risk
Format: Kindle
This is as close to a page-turner as a prosecutor's brief can get. No words are wasted as the author describes how Donald Trump and his minions have used their raw power to lay waste to the "good" that is the beating heart of American democracy, putting democracy itself at risk. Only the people can fix it.

Sweet, Simple, and Full of Love🙌🏽❤️
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I Love Dad” is such a precious little book, especially if you’re a fan of The Very Hungry Caterpillar. It keeps that same classic Eric Carle charm—bright, colorful illustrations and a sweet, simple message that really tugs at your heart.
It’s the perfect way for little ones to express love for Dad in a fun and meaningful way. My daughter loved pointing out the animals and colors, and it’s become one of our go-to bedtime reads. 🥹
The wording is short and sweet, it’s easy for toddlers to understand, and perfect for new readers to follow along. It also makes such a thoughtful gift for Father’s Day, a baby shower, or just because.
If you’re looking for a feel-good story that celebrates dads with love and playfulness, this book is a total gem. 💙📖
