A Child Lost in Flight by Mohan K
Amazon Kindle
Genre - Biographies & Memoirs (PG)
Price -  $2.99
A Child Lost in Flight is a first person account of a father coming to grips with the sudden death of his child on an international flight. 

The story is about his tragedy and the author’s experiences in recovering and moving on. Air travel continues to be the safest mode of transport though fatal accidents do occur. When the author and his wife lost their baby on international Jet Airways flight 229 at the time of landing, they were heartbroken. 

The author recollects the birth of little Aditya, the reason for international travel with the baby, details of the incident and aftermath. He attempts to make sense of the sudden death and about his drastically changed priorities. In this book, Mohan combines his analysis of grief, search for answers and explore the time spent in “recovering” and what really helped him move on.


Can We Come In & Laugh, Too? by Rosetta Schwartz
Genre - Biographies & Memoirs (PG)
Price -  $2.99
Born in 1909, Rosetta was the youngest of a family of ten children. They didn’t have much money, but the riches of their zany antics and laughter overflowed into the neighborhood. That love of laughter continued throughout her long life. One of her fondest childhood memories was when neighbors knocked at their door, saying, “Can we come in and laugh with you?”

Rosetta Schwartz (later Rosetta Shifrin and finally Rosetta Lachman) wrote this memoir in 1989 when she was 80 years old. Her daughter, author Morgan St. James, uncovered it and edited it in 2012, adding her own comments and those from some family members as Part II, along with a reprint of “Shopping For Dancing Shoes,” Morgan's short story about Rosetta that is the first story in "Chicken Soup for the Shopper’s Soul." 

She was a shining light—an inspiration to all. Her smile never dimmed, as seen on the cover photo taken by her grandson Jason Pransky when Rosetta was 95 years old. She passed away in 2006, just before her 97th birthday. We invite you to come on in and laugh with her.

The Last Confession by Ethan Jones
Genre - Mystery & Thriller (PG13)
Price -  $0.99
A bedridden New York mobster learns a bitter truth during his last confession. Enjoy a great Mafia tale of betrayal, revenge and justice.
