Book Description
I MISS YOUR PURPLE HAIR is a survival adventure centered upon 15-year-old Veronica "Violet" Lima and her father, Mateo. When an apocalyptic series of earthquakes and tsunamis ravages the Earth, they find themselves trapped in the ruins of the San Diego Zoo. The quakes have ended many lives, freed the wild zoo animals, unleashed toxic gases, and created an organic prison from which escape appears impossible. Tensions escalate as temperatures soar and limited resources are depleted. Violet struggles to recover from injuries suffered during the quake and begins to piece together vital clues, thanks to the blessing of her burgeoning psychic gifts. Mateo perseveres despite the harsh conditions and his own near-death experience, compelled to protect his daughter from additional harm. The band of exhausted survivors press on in search of any possible escape route... until one among them risks everything in a quest for salvation.

Book Description
A baby girl born with purple hair is promptly handed over to a convent by her horrified father, who fears she bears the sign of the witch. And indeed, little Evelyn seems to have strange powers and to attract supernatural manifestations as she grows up among the nuns, who patiently put up with it as best they can. But after one scary "trick" too many, she is entrusted to the care of a hat-maker, who whisks her off to London, where she will learn about much more than making hats! For as Evelyn and her talking cat Benedict will soon find out, Master Neil has a few tricks up his sleeve, too, and his hat shop might not be exactly what it seems...

Book Description
In 1985 America a naive young woman experiences the real world while struggling to find meaning in a life that doesn’t match the roles determined by her Disneyland upbringing in a rural working class family. As a Hoosier girl, Tracy Perry’s background clashes with her life as an adult English as a second language teacher, idealistic feminist, and bi-coastal explorer of life in the undercurrents of social progress. Radical change in sexual politics, counter-cultural art, music, and literature reshape both her life and that of others around her: her father, a WWII vet given electroshock treatment to address PTSD induced schizophrenia, her dancer friend, an HIV positive bisexual man she falls in love with, her lesbian Lakota friend and lover involuntarily sterilized at age 17 after the birth of her second child, and her mother, who must become the breadwinner in a role switch resulting from her husband’s PTSD treatment. Burning issues become unavoidable as Tracy stands on common ground with fellow human beings facing issues she is unprepared to address—HIV/AIDS epidemic, racial prejudice, genocide, poverty, lack of education, and social justice inequities. It’s an individual coming of age story set in a time and place where collective consciousness drowns us all.

Book Description
In today's uncertain world, storms will arise that test your faith in a loving heavenly Father. At times, the winds and waves of the world's deceptions will roll in and seek to erode your confidence in God. Without a firm foundation in the truth of God's Word, you may be tempted to go off course and accept less than God's best for you. However, when you hear Jesus' words, receive them, and put them into practice, you will construct a life the torrents cannot shake, "because it was well built" (Luke 6:48). The Purple Book will help you understand foundational truths that God wants you to hear on topics such as sin, salvation, spiritual gifts, prayer, worship, generosity, and evangelism. It will show you how the Bible is "God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness" (2 Timothy 3:16). It will help you understand that the faith you hold has true power to change lives and transform nations. It will give you a solid foundation the enemy cannot dismantle—and a heart shaped by knowledge of God's Word.
