I was carried away years ago, by Hendersons "People" stories. Really love them! There is a HUGE painting in the San Diego Museum of Art that makes me think of the people every time I see it!

By the creator of "The People." Some of these stories are a bit spooky, but a good read.

From the back cover: Here are children who "believe" - but what they believe and how they can realize their beliefs is only half the story ...

Dismey, for example, believes she's a magician. Two little boys who teased her can prove it. But they can't tell - she's turned them into rocks!

And how do you explain an amazing child who believes in attending school - but is hundreds of years old? The explanation is simple ... if you believe!
