Visions of a Certain Age chronicles the highs and lows of growing older in today's America. The elderly segment of our society is large but largely misunderstood, widely diverse but narrowly stereotyped. Every day in many ways, seniors are victims of ageism, a prejudice that may be learned or systemic, but one that inevitably leads to dismissal of the elderly as burdens on society. Using graphic poetry, Visions of a Certain Age shows not only the physical, mental, and social situations they endure, but how they overcome them to lead positive, contributory lives

A puppy for Christmas? What could be better! Dan McCoy and his capable wife June find out when Santa gives them a frolicsome hairball named Elf, a Silky Terrier with champion bloodlines and the table manners of Groucho Marx at a Hunter S. Thompson New Year's Eve party. He's also on the Christmas wish list of nefarious dognappers who want to steal him as part of a murderous plot to win the silver cup for Westminster's "Best In Show." Elf foils everybody's plots, though, and brings Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade to a tumultuous halt in the process. Hunting Elf is a comedic canine Christmas adventure.
