Book Description
Walter the ferry dog loved to greet cars as they came on board each morning. Fetching the captain's newspaper and tasting the cook's bacon were Walter's other important jobs. Cupcake the Cat was just about the only thing Walter disliked about being a ferry dog. One rainy day the waves were rough and no one was paying much attention to Walter. Even worse, Cupcakes was poking him with her paw and playing tricks as Walter was being blamed. He decided it was time to leave the ferry! Once on land he ran, and ran, and ran. Soon the day darkened, and Walter was lost and exhausted. Wondering who would do his jobs on the ferry, he felt a familiar poke from a familiar paw. Would Cupcake help him get back to ferry where he belonged?

Book Description
Milt Gross (1895-1953), a Bronx-born cartoonist and animator, first found fame in the late 1920s, writing comic strips and newspaper columns in the unmistakable accent of Jewish immigrants. By the end of the 1920s, Gross had become one of the most famous humorists in the United States, his work drawing praise from writers like H. L. Mencken and Constance Roarke, even while some of his Jewish colleagues found Gross’ extreme renderings of Jewish accents to be more crass than comical. Working during the decline of vaudeville and the rise of the newspaper cartoon strip, Gross captured American humor in transition. Gross adapted the sounds of ethnic humor from the stage to the page and developed both a sound and a sensibility that grew out of an intimate knowledge of immigrant life. His parodies of beloved poetry sounded like reading primers set loose on the Lower East Side, while his accounts of Jewish tenement residents echoed with the mistakes and malapropisms born of the immigrant experience. Introduced by an historical essay, Is Diss a System? presents some of the most outstanding and hilarious examples of Jewish dialect humor drawn from the five books Gross published between 1926 and 1928—Nize Baby, De Night in de Front from Chreesmas, Hiawatta, Dunt Esk, and Famous Fimmales—providing a fresh opportunity to look, read, and laugh at this nearly forgotten forefather of American Jewish humor.

Book Description
It is not a widely known fact that the core and true teachings of Jesus relate to the Holy Grail. They are not so much concerned with the commercialization of Christianity that Emperor Constantine sought to promote, that is widely known but not completely understood. And, to truly bring to life the Grail teachings of Jesus as opposed to the drama of his life story, this book and series is a completion of what Jesus, his apostles, and all the medieval Grail romances have strived to communicate over the millennia. Make no mistake, this book and series will seek to unravel the mysteries of the Holy Grail, to give credit to the legacy of Jesus; for God’s gift of fellowship, sovereignty and kinship to become commonplace on Earth…that has been captured in the Arthurian sense, in the form of the civilization of Camelot. This first book in the series of Oz:mosis has been written in the style of a modern day Grail Quest Cycle, that was originally inspired by a dream I had over twenty years ago about The Wizard of Oz, that since this book’s development has paved the yellow brick road to its completion, in the theme and spirit of the original 1939 classic film.
