Publisher's Synopsis
The Comfort Legacies With Fay Michelle and Grandma Cleo is a collection of short stories for children and families. The stories began when Fay Michelle shared stories of her being four-years old with her grandson who was four-years old. Fay Michelle's grandson was so taken with the stories that he wanted to hear the stories over and over again. Fay Michelle decided to write the stories down for MJ who happens to be a great little reader at his age. Fay Michelle decided to publish the stories in an effort to create a memorable legacy for all of her grandchildren. The first story to be published is called, "Got To Have That Green Banana." The moral to the story is that, "one can tell a banana by it's color." The next story published in the series is called, "Singing For Prunes." Fay Michelle is left asking questions about the songs that she learned from an endearing old lady, who lived across the street from her home. She would discover the the songs would have the answers to all of her questions. The stories in the series can be read out of order. However, there will be an ending story which will tug at the audiences emotions. The book will not be published until all of the other booked have been published and promoted. Everyone shall have the opportunity to get to know both Fay Michelle and her Grandma Cleo in personal way before the series ends. Fay Michelle and her Grandma Cleo shared special moments together and were extremely close to one another. Their relationship was not only a kinship, but a friendship. They would cook, sew, talk, and enjoy one another as though they were best friends. MJ and Fay Michelle share a similar relationship as Grandma Cleo and Fay Michelle shared. Therefore, MJ is very much apart of the storytelling. He lends his voice by making contributions to the stories at the beginning and at the end of the stories. Sometimes he reminds Grandma Fay Michelle of mistakes made as a child and as an adult. He proofs illustrations and gives his thoughts. He chooses the titles of some of the books and gives many suggestions and commentary. He is a great little promoter of the books. When he finds himself on a Zoom, he is happy to share the books. COVID19 has made it very difficult to be around loved ones. However, MJ makes all the effort to share his love with everyone that he is able to communicate with. Please leave suggestions or comments about the books. Your love and support is humbly and greatly appreciated and anticipated. Keep yourselves safe and best wishes to you all. Big, Big, Hugs. Fay Michelle and MJ.
