The Runaway BeignetBy Connie Collins MorganIllustrated by Herb Leonhard

“Believe you me, I’m gonna get away! You not gonna taste this little beignet!” —Beignet Boy

In the city of New Orleans lived a generous baker named Marcel, who made the most delicious beignets in the whole world. While his heart is filled with kindness, his home is cold and lonely—and only a bit of lagniappe will change this. One day, to repay Marcel’s generosity, a mysterious stranger gifts the kindly baker with a special bag of sugar for his fried confections. The stranger’s magic grants a very special wish in this Louisiana-flavored retelling of a classic tale Out of the sugared pastry pops the beignet boy, and, with a penchant for trouble, he zips down Canal Street and through Jackson Square and the French Market. His hilarious antics, a smattering of French phrases, and New Orleans cultural icons scattered like powdered sugar on the deliciously re-spun story will delight readers of all ages. Illustrator Herb Leonhard brings this little beignet to life with a mischievous grin and a cloud of sparkling sugar. His images of New Orleans dance across the pages, bringing a true taste of the city. Author Connie Collins Morgan draws upon her memories of life in Louisiana—and her favorite treats—to make this retelling stand apart from the rest with an infectious jazz beat, trailing the sweet aroma of magic sugar in its wake.

CONNIE COLLINS MORGAN grew up minutes away from the magical bayous of Lafayette Parish in Louisiana. Her deep passion for the power of the written word led her to a degree in elementary education from the University of Southwestern Louisiana and then to an MFA in children’s literature from Hollins University. An elementary-school teacher, she delights in sharing the antics of her treasured Louisiana characters.

HERB LEONHARD has worked as a freelance illustrator and graphic designer, specializing in the illustration of children’s books, for more than twenty years. He received a BFA in illustration from the Pacific Northwest College of Art and has won numerous awards for his versatile work in both traditional and digital media.

The Martin Luther King Congressional Cover-Up: The Railroading of James Earl RayBy John Avery Emison

Was MLK’s murderer really guilty?

Did James Earl Ray kill Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.? Ray vehemently claimed that he was set up as the scapegoat for King’s brutal murder—and the King family has agreed. Meticulous research and interviews with Ray’s family, attorneys, and Ray himself reveal altered evidence, significant corruption, and hidden motives among the United States government’s agents, including the House Select Committee on Assassinations. This book delivers justice for Ray and a deceived nation.

JOHN AVERY EMISON is an environmental scientist who has worked as a science reporter for the Oak Ridge (TN) Oakridger.

From its founding, Louisiana and New Orleans have stood against the onslaught of nature’s savagery.

The Confederacy’s First Battle Flag: The Story of the Southern CrossBy Kent Masterson Brown

Who actually designed the first Confederate flag?

Initially produced without permission or guidance from the Confederate government, the first St. Andrew’s Cross battle flags were stitched in secret by a group of Virginian women. The flag was a military necessity, as it unified the troops under an identifiable banner. This striking design was quickly adopted as an official banner. Illustrations depict the creation of the celebrated flag as it evolved through a series of designs. The symbol of a proud people, the story of this flag will inspire all true Southerners.

KENT MASTERSON BROWN produces Civil War documentaries. He is the creator and first editor of the national magazine The Civil War, and he gives lively tours of historic Civil War battlefields.

Your Friend, As Ever, A. Lincoln: How the Unlikely Friendship of Gustav Koerner and Abraham Lincoln Changed America ForeverBy Donald Allendorf

Meet the man who encouraged Lincoln’s rise to the presidency!

After being ousted from Germany in 1833 for his radical ideas, Gustav Koerner moved to Illinois to work as a lawyer. He and a young Abraham Lincoln had much in common, and they began a lifelong correspondence. Koerner later became an Illinois Supreme Court judge and lieutenant governor. Their friendship was instrumental in shaping Lincoln’s early opinions and political goals. Through their letters comes a clear picture of this influential man and a fresh look at a well-known president.

DONALD ALLENDORF’s interest in history, as well as his own German heritage, contributed to his desire to write this story. This is his second book focusing on the role of German immigrants in Civil War-era America.
