Families and literature go hand in hand; fictional families to entertain, reflect and inspire.

She was sick of the rain. It ran down the window-pane in rivulets, and she watched those crazy little trails as she took a drag of her cigarette, before stubbing it out in the china teacup beside her.

Chiraq XIV
Chapter 14 "Wake up, Tyrone! It's time for breakfast!", Helena shouted as she nudged her head through the crack of the door while holding her Barbie doll. She stared at her brother for a moment, then slowly back out and walked down the stairs. Big Shorty roused himself out of bed, still feeling the sensation of the throbbing pain from his fresh tattoo. "I'm still high and sure is hungry", cut into his thoughts as he sat on his bed and stretched his arms and legs.

Clouds Over Paradise
My real daddy's name is Jerry. He's been in jail since before I was born. Mama's got a picture of him. His hair's long and brown and blonde like mine, kind of pulled behind his ears, and he's got a little mustache drooping over his lip. His eyes are kind of sleepy and baggy looking. I don't know why he's in jail. Mama says he just went bad one day.

Lavender
It was a sunny morning in July. The rain had built a bridge of vibrant colours across the blue skies with the help of sunshine in the hope of joining two rather mysterious worlds far over the Lavender fields. The moist Everything looked washed and fresh. During our routine morning walk, passing through the efflorescence of Lavender fields, my father and I were unaware that the next few minutes of our walk would have a tremendous impact not only on our lives but the lives of every single person that lived on the Lavender Farm in Sutton, England.

The Lady And Tramp
The Lady And Tramp There was a family that lived in a tiny white house at the end of the block. The Lady of the house's name was Anita. She had a deep grumbly voice that sounded soooo meeeean. But she wasn't. She had a heart of gold and loved all the children that would come to play with her little boy named Tommy. All the neighborhood children loved to come and play in Tommy's yard with him because it was at the end of the street where the woods were. They could play hide and seek and build tree forts. But the children had the most fun playing with Tommy's Golden Retriever named Tramp. Anita named him Tramp because he was so big, and with his blockhead and slow moves he reminded her of a homeless man she knew when she was a child. She adored the man and would always bring him a banana and cookies. But one day the tramp was never seen again and it broke Anita's heart. So in remembrance, Anita called her Golden Retriever Tramp.
