Why Can't You Just Be A NORMAL Princess?Tara, Princess of the Realm of Brythrony, is weary of joining her parents' royal audiences, tired of sessions at the Law Courts, fed up with ribbon-cutting ceremonies, and hates the Season-the countless, tedious formal balls given around the kingdom that her mother insists she attend. She doesn't seem at all suited to ruling Brythrony; worse, she doesn't even appear to be interested! At last, in total frustration and disappointment, her parents send her out into the kingdom to perform a single very simple but important royal duty. Surely, they tell themselves, she'll come back more responsible and princess-like.What could go wrong?Plenty, as it turns out! Tara is kidnapped and left for lost on a burning, sinking ship. In the nick of time, she is rescued by another princess-a mermaid-and, together with four others each with her own abilities, must face down hostile witches, a bloodthirsty creature made of sand flies, and the malevolent queen of a strange underground kingdom who will stop at nothing to find a long-lost artifact. What chance does Tara, who isn't magical in the slightest, and her friends stand against so many bent on the destruction of them and Brythrony? All they have for help are several strange purses with a stick, a vial, and a bag of dust inside. What use could they possibly be?And Tara still needs to prove to her parents she's worthy of ruling her own kingdom!

In the eighteenth century, Haiti was the richest colony in the new world. This aristocracy, however, dwindled as years went by and the slaves were finally able to exact their freedom. In the present day, lives of the Haitian peasants have become harder and harder. The political battles of the capital alone leave no respite for the poor, pitting one group against another while usurping a large percentage of the foreign aid. The number of kidnappings for ransom have continued to rise and one natural disaster after another strikes the poor land after every few years.However, despite all the turmoil and unrest, many Haitians in the countryside are intensely spiritual, and will always put goodness above their own personal interest, as have been taught to them generation after generation. Lacking basic education, Haitians depend upon wisdom passed down from the wise elders. The stories in this book, accumulated and eye-witnessed by the author, are testament to this fact.
