A Note from the AuthorOur life is filled with friends and angels. God sends us angels in disguise. I believe my mother was an angel on earth sent to earth to be my mom and teach me about Gods love. I was an only child; living, loving and learning from my angel. She is now an angel in heaven. Each friend comes into our life for a special purpose; they learn from us, we learn from them, sometimes they stay and sometimes they leave. Often we wonder about friends who are no longer around us. Perhaps their mission in our lives was fulfilled and they moved on. The first poem is about my seven life friends. We meet, we laugh, we celebrate, we eat, we cry and we have remained friends throughout the years (Gloria, Alva, Ancelma, Thelma, Sally, Julie, Maria Elena.) Thank you for a beautiful friendship. Gods love for us is real! The poems are easy to read and inspired by my devotion and love for Christ. I wish to thank my mother Catalina R. Garcia for teaching me about Gods Love. A message to my loving dad Refugio Garcia; thank you dad God Bless you in heaven.My other publicationsSleepy Tears, Laughing Tears (a collection of grandmothers stories shared with her grandchildren)Sleepy Tears, , Miss You Tears Gods Love is Real

This short novel is dedicated to my wonderful family: my children, Cathy, Fernando, Phillip; my grandchildren Jozette, Alaena, Phoenix; and my husband, Max. The novel is especially written for an audience of young readers or adults who choose to have a childs imagination. It was such fun for me to develop the characters and scenes of this mystery. It all starts with a womans silhouette that appears on the third-floor window of this old Victorian mansion. No one in the town of Sneila has ever seen her except when she stands behind the sheer curtain. The children of the town look forward to Halloween every year. The children together walk down the dirt road to the mansion that sits at the edge of town behind enormously tall trees and a black iron fence. Every Halloween, the children know that, in front of the mansion outside the gate, there will be a mysterious white cauldron filled with magic candies for each child. The candies are in baggies with each childs name written on the front of the baggie. How does she know every childs name? Where does this candy come from? The children agree that the candy is very different, like its out of this world. These are only two of the mysteries that exist in the town of Sneila.Much mystery lives in the town of Sneila. The number of people in this town never changes. When one person dies, another is born. People who die are not buried. The number 8 appears throughout the town. Sometimes you have to add two digits to find the 8. The infinity symbol appears throughout the novel.Magic turtles surface and communicate with the two main characters, Samantha and Victoria. Flickering lights, hidden doors, basement, baskets, spaceships, magic turtles, mysterious bubbles, candles, and fairies create a magical kingdom.Wrinkles and gray hair are witnesses to times past.The surprise ending is sure to give you goose bumps!
