"Excellent read!!!!!! Frustration, hate, anger, confusion, self-loathing, abuse.... Her life had more down than ups. Her candid replay begins in childhood, all the way to a young woman. Such trials and tribulations she attempted to overcome as well as herself worth. Reality: SHE MADE IT!!
This portrays a lot of people in our lives, I am sure, ie. some silent sufferers, some verbal, some sadly end. No person should have to go through this. There is no easy solution to these issues when those around us know yet won't accept the truth...."

Jordan Sullivan's pregnancy seems like the perfect cure for her loneliness. In fact, it feels like God's way of saying "sorry" for allowing her parents' murders. That belief not only explains how a virgin like Jordan can be pregnant, it makes the news she's expecting twins feel like poetic justice. But it isn't long before Jordan realizes her pregnancy isn't entirely a Godsend.
From the moment they're born, the twins become common denominators of mysterious tragedies. Jordan struggles to rationalize the irrational until she meets Tanas. He horrifies her with the news that her babies are the fourth generation of a line-breeding experiment Tanas started with the Nazi Angel of Death, Josef Mengele.
Tanas will soon force Jordan to make a terrible choice if she is to keep her sons alive - unless she can find another way.

"After being scared out of my wits at a horror show in the theater as a teenager in the 70s , I absolutely refuse to watch or read anything that's going to give me nightmares. That is until I picked up Coleen's book "Choices, Arrival of the 4th Generation." Although, a lot of the wording was quite graphic, the plot insanely twisting, I couldn't put the book down. I sat up until 2am to finish it. I had to know the ending. Surprisingly it wasn't the graphics that stayed in my mind as it was thinking how our own choices in life not only affect us personally but can affect generations to come. That our choices, good or bad, can bring anger, sadness, joy, love, indifference and we have the power to direct our decisions and even change outcomes. Powerful message and I can't wait to read more of her books."

The resulting chain of events will leave you wishing the story never ends.
"I was going to stop the reading after chapter 8 because I wanted to do some smarter balance practice, but they all begged me to keep reading. I, of course, gave in and finished the story for them. I thought that was really cool!"

Why Don't I Fit In?
We all have times when we feel we just don't fit in with those around us. There is a reason, and that reason is because there's no one else like you in the world! The important thing is to find a place you feel most comfortable in life.
This book is written in verse to ensure young readers are successful when reading to themselves, and older readers are entertained by the use of couplet poetry.
A Day in the Life
This story follows Chuck the Mallard as he searches for the wetlands where he was born.
With the assistance of conservationists, Goob's story brings Chuck and his friends to life, in order to demonstrate farming practices that not only benefit wildlife, but also farmers.
While writing the book, Goob knew there was only one artist she wanted to create the illustrations... John Green. The problem, however, was that John is one of the premier artists in the state of South Dakota. EVERYONE wants him to create paintings for them. With her fingers crossed, Goob reached out to John who immediately agreed to be part of the project. Learn more about John here.
The interior pages, created by Kasia, took John's vision and created beautiful coloring pages that allow readers to develop their own artistic skills.
