Fresh illustrations, a rollicking text, and a growing succession of cute little chicks make the counting go down easy. When one big-eyed chick fails to yank its prize worm from the ground, it’s time to bring in a friend—and then another, and another. But if adding a rooster to the crew still doesn’t do the trick, could it be that a worm isn’t always what it seems? Each turn of the page brings a new number and a new rhyme in this delightful debut from both author and illustrator.

The Ties That Blind is quite appropriate to the time in consideration of the present growth of interest in religious and spiritual matters. Additionally, much of the storys prophetic content is extremely relevant to the events of September 11, 2001, although the book was completed prior to that date. The author skillfully depicts the realities of racial prejudice; much of the violence being recounted from his experience, while driving home the point that love always conquers hate. It is a true inspiration to people of faith, criminal justice practitioners, and those who fight for racial equality and brotherly love Arnold Gibbs is a Vietnam veteran and a of the Miami Police Departments Medal of Honor. He was raised in the Liberty City projects and knows, first hand, of the realities depicted in his novel. He has been a Christian for 25 years and is dedicated to his faith. All of these factors combine to provide the ingredients for a story that is a must read for people of faith, criminal justice practitioners, war veterans and activists for racial equality and harmony. There are not many authors who are as qualified and capable to bring to the reader such compelling drama as in The Ties That Blind.

Across the Creek, a collection of affectionate reminiscences, adds to the common lore about William Faulkner and his community. Jim Faulkner recounts stories abounding in folklore, humor, family history, and fictionalized history, and these offer an insider's view of the Faulkner family's life in the small southern town of Oxford, Mississippi. A sense of adventure and misadventure colors these personal accounts. “Aunt Tee and Her Two Monuments” explains the mystery of why the town has two Confederate statues. “Roasting Black Buster” tells how Faulkner's hired man mistakenly killed the prize bull for a family barbecue. “The Picture of John and Brother Will” recounts how Phil Mullen happened to take his well-known snapshot of the famous Faulkner brother novelists—John and William—one of the few pictures ever taken of them together. Here in this entertaining book are more family stories about a major American author whose life, family, and writing have generated continuing appeal and ever-renewed appreciation.
