About this ebook

In this anthology of short stories – six very diverse and compelling human dramas — the author drops his hook into a pond not often fished for stories of the public school system. We no longer pit ourselves against wild beasts and precocious gods. Our struggles are against the beasts that lie in wait for innocents, predators who see our children as easy pickings, and the unsung heroes who guard and protect them, the quiet unassuming angels who would light our way if only we would let them.
The Day They Fired Santa is a book you will not want to put down.
