Lizette Ezrre Pohlmeyer has completed her new book, "Who Loves You the Most?": a sweet and simple tale with a powerful, life-affirming message. She resides in Tucson, Arizona, with her two daughters and two pugs. Her hope is to help young children learn about self-love and to rely on the voice within them that will guide them in making good decisions.
Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Pohlmeyer's new book aims to give parents a way to introduce God's love to children so that they don't seek approval from others, but rather from inside themselves.
"As parents, we unknowingly teach our children at a young age to rely on us for love," Pohlmeyer writes. "We say things like 'Who loves you the most?' and the answer is typically 'us'. Then as children grow up and go to school, they seek the approval and acceptance of classmates and later in life get into relationships that may sometimes fail or be toxic. When this happens, they question their existence and feel unloved. This can lead to self-esteem issues, self-medicating with medications, drugs and/or alcohol, or even worse, suicide."
"Who Loves You the Most?" is a book written for children to understand the wonderful relationship they can have with themselves and with God when they listen to what's inside their hearts, teaching children at an early age that, ultimately, no matter what happens or what life brings, they are never truly alone when they believe and accept God as their savior.
Readers can purchase "Who Loves You the Most?" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon or Barnes & Noble.

S16 Gallery and Ballon Rouge Art Advisory are thrilled to announce that Banksy's 'Dream Boat' will be offered for sale at the forthcoming Context Art Miami, with a significant portion of the proceeds going to Choose Love, an organization that provides humanitarian aid and advocacy for refugees around the world.
'Dream Boat' was initially unveiled at Banksy's 2015 Dismaland art pop-up in the seaside resort town of Weston-super-Mare in Somerset, England. It was part of a functioning coin-operated game where guests could guide police boats to chase the 'Dream Boat,' a nearly 1 meter-long sculpture of a boat overflowing with individually painted refugees.
In 2018, the 'Dream Boat' reemerged as Banksy took to Instagram to announce that he would be raffling off the piece for £2, with proceeds of the raffle going to Choose Love. The sculpture would be won by the person who would provide the closest guess to the sculpture's actual weight.
The lucky winner with a keen sense of physics has now entrusted Ballon Rouge and S16 with finding a permanent home for the 'Dream Boat,' an exceptional art piece with an unforgettable story. The poignant piece comes with full certification from Banksy's own Pest Control Office.
"Banksy is a pioneer in creating art that goes beyond social commentary to become a proactive tool in the fight for social change and the causes it criticizes," says Jon Bucci, president of Ballon Rouge Art Advisory. "We are incredibly honored to have been chosen, along with S16 Gallery, to play a role in the story of this incredible piece and to help bring a full circle moment whereby a large part of the proceeds will go to the original organization for whose benefit it was raffled, Choose Love."
Since its inception, Choose Love has supported nearly 4 million people and raised over $80 million for partner organizations worldwide.
"Dream Boat" by Banksy will be offered for sale as part of the S16 collection on show at Context Miami from Nov. 29 to Dec. 4, 2022.

Fulton Books authors Laurie Ravin and Alexis Kantor, lifelong learners with a passion for the environment and telling stories, have completed their most recent book "Veridesian Tales: The Hidden Woodlands": a whimsical and potent story about the dangers of deforestation through the eyes of a girl with a unique gift to communicate with nature.
"In Veridesia," writes authors Ravin and Kantor, "the creatures are aware that Earth humans are the dominant creature, enjoying and using the gifts of their planet and all its life-forms while taking little to no responsibility for its welfare."
Published by Fulton Books, Ravin and Kantor's book takes readers on a journey through Veridesia, a magical woodland in California. To an ordinary human, Veridesia looks like any other forest. Only special humans, called Veridesians, can see the true wonder it contains. The highest of the Veridesians are called to be Guardians of their extraordinary land, protecting it from outside humans and preserving its magic.
One such Veridesian, named Katt, inherited Guardianship at a very young age. For centuries, the creatures of Veridesia have depended on her Clan for protection from the "regular" world. Her abilities are still developing, but a dark change is looming. With the help of her animal friends, can Katt maintain peace and harmony in Veridesia despite sudden intrusions from the violent outside world?
Laurie Ravin wrote "Veridesian Tales" with her granddaughter, Alexis Kantor. The duo say they have always shared a deep love of making up stories together, and now they bring that passion to readers. Ravin and Kantor have already begun writing the second installment in the "Veridesian Tales" series and hope that "the beauty of Veridesia will inspire readers to become positive, active influencers in taking responsibility for the current and future health of our planet by gaining more information, asking difficult questions, seeking employment in impactful fields, and being good to our planet in their daily practices."
Readers who wish to experience this gripping work can purchase "Veridesian Tales: The Hidden Woodlands" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

Fulton Books author Linda Vagnetti, a retired Title 1 teacher of 28 years in a school district in Michigan, has completed her most recent book "Ralphy the Sequel and Now There Are Four: New Ralphy Sequel": an engaging story that follows Ralphy and his friends as they visit Lebean's great-aunt Etta on her houseboat. The group plans a great pumpkin-carving event together.
Author Linda Vagnetti is married and has three children and four grandchildren. The children she taught in school gave her the idea of putting many stories in one book so that they didn't have to carry around smaller books. This encouraged reading in her students.
Linda begins her story, writing, "I am Ralphy. It was the beginning of summer vacation from school. We were all told that next year, we would be the first sixth, seventh, and eighth middle-school tryout class. We didn't talk about it much just yet. Other things were on the minds of Jabber, Lebean, and me—alias the Awesome Trio."
She continues, "A family meeting had been called. This was not unusual except that all three of our families were involved. We had gone on several vacations together in the past few years. They had not gone that well at first—well, at least for one. Anyway, the meeting was at my house as my mom had brought up the subject."
Published by Fulton Books, Linda Vagnetti's book is an entertaining and imaginative children's story filled with fun and surprises.
Readers who wish to experience this creative work can purchase "Ralphy the Sequel and Now There Are Four: New Ralphy Sequel" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes & Noble.

Singer/songwriter Ed Gumbrecht Delivers Soulful Music for the ’22 Fall Season
WASHINGTON - October 29, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
Today, an original song arrives from Ed Gumbrecht, announcing a new season of resonant and expressive music. Make Us Wise became available on all streaming services starting at midnight, 10/29/22. In a year where the standard fare of catchy and campy music feels out of sync with the times, Gumbrecht delivers a refined alternative.
The song is a meditation on loss and the comforts of relationships. It suits a middle sensibility, neither too bright nor too somber. With a bassy melody and spare acoustic production, it has an intimate friendly quality. Its message is poignantly ripe for the season.
Make Us Wise as a single release is a prelude to Gumbrecht's upcoming album, Enter the Muses (out in November) -- a textured panoramic rendering of modern life's cares and surprises. His February 2022 release, Colorshow, revealed the artist as a poetic storyteller. His new album presents a deeper and more evocative collection of songs.
Gumbrecht's growing oeuvre contains a harvest of music that will leave you feeling encouraged and alive in any season. Fans of the songwriter, folk rock, rock and country genres especially should listen, and add Make Us Wise and Enter the Muses to your Fall playlists.
