A Pocket Full of Wishes: This book was fun with Scooter and “Pocket!” Who can resist a genie in a bottle and a bit of magic! David Dorris never misses a one liner when he writes, and while I have heard most of them in my 59+ years, I learned a few new ones this time! My favorite was “You left your voice in my ear” said by Scooter to Hannibal. These two characters sure can sling words! Entertaining book, fun to read! Robin Rollins CEO KOEHLER ELECTRIC

Many cultures have been developed in the world and over the time they also have been perished. Indian culture is the most ancient culture of the world. It is focused on the spirit of spirituality and in fact, it is based merely on spirituality rather than cosmicism, materialism and occultism, whose primary goal is to make spiritual advancement of the whole world by establishing human values such as peace, tolerance, unity, truth, non-violence and morality. With the purpose of working for everyone's happiness in the interest of everyone, it is inherent in the sense of accepting the whole world as its own family This is the reason that Indian culture still remains intact in its original form for thousands of years on the basis of its cultural and life-values. Apart from arbitrariness and selfishness, it has the power to live an ideal life based on qualities like justice, generosity, devotion and sacrifice and it also has power to bind the world humanity into one formula. In true sense, Indian culture is the key to making life worthwhile. The beliefs and traditions of Indian culture are established on some scientific basis, which are seen even in today's computer era as rational on the basis of scientific perspectives and are confirmed on their scientific values. There are countless features of this kind. It is the ocean of such pearls which are not possible to collect all and put them in the book. Yet some very important aspects are very nicely compiled in this book.

In this “heart-tugging story of love and redemption that is surprisingly powerful” (People), a woman’s life is miraculously changed forever after she’s caught in a blizzard in a picturesque Vermont town. When waitress Bree Miller wakes up in the hospital after a blizzard in a tiny Vermont town, she can’t recall the tragedy that landed her there. But she’s certain of only one thing—that she has been magically granted three wishes. Are the things Bree longs for—a home, a soul mate, a family—now within her grasp? After all, one of her wishes seems to have already come true: at her bedside is Tom Gates, a renowned author who’s come to town to make sense of his fame—and who, as the accident’s only witness, is determined to make sure Bree is safe and sound. As Bree recovers and Tom learns more about her, they discover that they will have to take unimagined risks to truly live their dreams. Entwining courage, community, and the magic of second chances, this “heartwarming, tear-jerking small-town romance” (Kirkus Reviews) asks: What if wishes really could come true?

Ellie is used to getting leading roles in her small-town school’s musicals, but her place at center stage disappears when her dad becomes the host of a breakfast TV show and they have to move to the big city. When Ellie auditions for—and lands—a spot with the Youth Works Theater Company, she comes up against a tight-knit group of talented, experienced and competitive triple-threat performers. Not only does she not get a lead, but she has to share a role with Marissa, a company veteran who seems determined to do all she can to outshine Ellie. Out of her depth and far from all that she’s known, Ellie wonders just what she has to do to stop feeling upstaged by everyone around her.
