Pintsized Pioneers at Play: Homemade Frontier Fun and Danger explores the forgotten world of how kids lived, laughed—and sometimes limped—through their childhood years in the Old West.

While their parents settled the land, these pintsized pioneers explored it, creating their own adventures with homemade toys, daring games, wild animal encounters, and risky escapades. This engaging sequel to the award-winning Pintsized Pioneers: Taming the Frontier, One Chore at a Time shines a spotlight on the joys and perils of play in a land still being tamed.

From exploring the prairie and wrangling critters to celebrating frontier holidays and watching traveling circuses, this book reveals how children carved out fun and entertainment in a rough-and-tumble world. Learn how railroads and mail-order catalogs brought new toys, how schools and churches doubled as social hubs, and how a simple game could end in laughter—or injury.

Written for young adults but fascinating for readers of all ages, Pintsized Pioneers at Play is packed with history, heart, and a hint of danger. Written at a tenth-grade reading level perfect for curious minds, Pintsized Pioneers at Play includes a glossary of related terms.

Perfect for fans of Western history, educators, homeschoolers, and lovers of untold American stories!

#BookReview: The Body by Bethany C. Morrow

Synopsis:
The Body is a pulse-pounding supernatural horror story from bestselling author Bethany C. Morrow, where one woman must survive a series of bizarre and escalating attacks on her marriage.

Mavis broke from her parents’ congregation years ago, but she still hasn’t recovered. Their impossible expectations and soul-shredding critiques have dug deep into her mind, and she’s taunted by the knowledge that even when she’s done nothing wrong, she’ll never be right.

Now Mavis is afraid she’s about to lose the only thing she has: her husband, Jerrod. The man she’s always known was too good to be true. No one thinks she deserves him—not even after surviving the serial cheater they wanted her to stick by—and soon they’ll all find out they were right.

Mavis is already unraveling when a brush with death shows her what real fear looks like. Soon, she’s under constant attack from all directions. As the assaults turn increasingly vicious and bizarre, Mavis realizes that Hell isn’t reserved for the afterlife.

And sinner or not, no one is coming to save her.

He’s my Hollywood heartthrob ex-husband.

My hot new neighbor.

And, thanks to one reckless night, my soon-to-be baby daddy.

Patton Pierce has a knack for showing up when I least expect him—my street, my salon, my martial arts studio. Even my dreams.

Sure, I’ve pined for him over the past seven years, but if he thinks his low-slung gray sweatpants, backward cap, and infuriating grin will make me forget our past, then he’s in for a rude awakening.

But then my sister’s bachelorette party happens, and I have one too many drinks. One ridiculous dare later, and I find myself “kissing the boy I used to love”.

One kiss leads to one incredible night.

And one night leads to two very pink lines.

Patton says he wants me back, that nothing would make him happier than to have this baby with me. But I’ve heard those words before.

He chose Hollywood over me before, and he’ll choose it over me again.

Still, with him taking care of my every craving—both in and out of the bedroom—it’s getting harder not to fall for him.

The question is: will he be there to catch me this time?

I am vengeance. Tate Aaralyn, a lone vampire vigilante who strikes fear into the hearts of monsters. My fangs puncture, and the flavor of iron-infused retribution drips down my throat when I exact justice.

Don’t be like them. Don’t succumb to bloodlust. Make the b*stards pay.

These rules have been my guide, leading me through life in the Glenn. And all had been flowing nicely until I met him…The male cloaked in secrets, wrapped in darkness, and holding the keys to my past and future: Aether.

Complex. Messy. Unexpected.

My whole world slipped into a tailspin of lies, betrayal, and secrets. As I'm forced into the guara with a male I loathe, yet somehow crave, I must not only untangle the truth of who I am, but also what I am.

I am the enforcer. Chance Dale, the vampire president’s son with a prestigious position as Dux in the guara. I command respect and provide results. I will not let the Glenn down.

Not as I hunt the traitor living among us. Not as dark magic’s inky ways begin to seep into our villages. Not as vile beasts fill them.

Nothing will stop me from this path, not even her. Even if one thing is clear: the very enemy I hunt, may be the one I love.

Fangs of Fate is an epic first-person dual-POV romantasy that will leave you breathless! Buckle up, grab a glass of bloodwine, and clear your calendar for this morally-grey, intrigue-infused, and action-packed romance that stars vampires, dragon shifters, corruption, and deception — and secrets that can break even the strongest...
