Friendship : Francis Mandewah
FRIENDSHIP: A True Story of Adventure, Goodwill, and Endurance
Young Francis Mandewah dreamed of a better future, but saw no way out of his impoverished situation… until one day when he met a man who would change his life forever.
An African boy from the region made famous by the Hollywood film “Blood Diamond” is befriended by an American pilot. That friendship brings great opportunities and blessings that affirm the boy’s faith in a God of miracles. But the boy’s journey also brings many trials and tribulations that test his courage, strength, and endurance.
The Hollywood movie “Blood Diamond” starring Leonardo DiCaprio was nominated for five Academy Awards. It brought attention to a rebel war in West Africa in which “blood” diamonds, also known as “conflict” diamonds, were used to finance warlords and their activities.
Two decades before this war Thomas Johnson, a pilot from Minnesota, was employed to fly boxes of gems and alluvial diamonds in Sierra Leone, from Yengema to Freetown where a British Airways jet would fly the gemstones to London.
This American pilot met and befriended young Francis Mandewah, an impoverished Sierra Leonean boy, and gave him generous support that opened new a new life of opportunity, which would eventually take Francis to America. Along the way Francis had many harrowing experiences, including crossing the Sahara Desert, which almost cost him his life. His challenges continued in Italy, Greece, Turkey, and finally in America. In the end, Francis became aware that his real voice that has emerged through all his trials and tribulations is one of deep faith and gratitude for God’s miracles and wonders in his life.
“On my way home I walked in a haze. I was in shock over the miracle that had just happened in my life. That night as I settled down to sleep on my mat on the floor of my cousin’s house, I lay in the dark and prayed, “Dear God, I can’t take any more heartbreak. Please let this be real. What did I do to deserve such a blessing? I promise to do well in school and make You proud. Please don’t let me die in my sleep tonight.” –Francis Mandewah
Saving Grace : L B Johnson
A Story of Adoption
It started with a birth certificate and ended up with an adoptee facing the same decision her birth mother made. For she was born to a teen mother on a warm day in August–a small, painful beginning in which she had been an unwilling participant, yet one that would shape her destiny.
Her childhood couldn’t be happier but when fate tears her adopted family apart and she finds herself alone – and pregnant, still a teen. The options are obvious, but there is only one decision she could make: to give her child up to a family praying for one, and walking away.
Written in a series of vignettes written to the child she may never meet, Saving Grace is a deep look at family and how we find love and healing with souls, both two and four-legged, that may not share our blood or our last names but who are our true family.
True Course and Small Town Roads by Brigid Johnson are also on Whizbuzz Books.

‘It has elements of a junior Stephen King novel, without being too graphic for sensitive children.’

Piper, Once and Again : Caroline E. Zani
Piper, Once and Again
What do your memories smell like? Do you know things no one has taught you, missed someone you’ve never met or lived a life before this one? Read the book Publishers Weekly calls, “Compelling.”
Longing for something just beyond her grasp… A successful equine insurance agent living in 21st century Massachusetts, Piper struggles with relationships, patience, scents, and living in 19th century France.
Through tragedy, betrayal and a mother’s religious-driven fear, Piper must learn to intuitively understand the messages all around her. The scents of burnt raisins, freshly washed baby skin and the ethereal lavender fields of Provence, France reach out from a century ago to guide her on a journey she wasn’t aware she was on. And those shards of memories that ride on those scents – Friesian horses, a cradle in the corner of loft, an old man inhaling the scent of perfume on pristine white gloves – what could they possibly mean?
Follow Piper on this enlightening spiral through time, unconditional love, unbearable loss, unbelievable discovery, and a question of forgiveness, as she tries to find the one man who can help her unravel this tapestry woven before she took her first breath.
See why she is indeed Piper, Once and Again.
