C&B BOOKS, was started in 1995, by Carol Rogers & Brenda Piper.Two years ago we started the C&B Book club,  the club has grown immensely.The motivation behind this book business, was the lack of affordable books written by black authors.  We decided to become an asset to our Youth and the African American commuitiy in a whole.  We offer our books for less then the major stores, we knew this would provide our readers with a wider variety of reading material. We have, titles for all ages in all catagories, fiction, non-fiction, spiritual, inspirational, educational etc

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Terri A. O'Neal She is the author of two volumes of poetry, Motion Sickness and The Poet Speaks In Black. O'Neal is also the author of the children's book "Ev'ry Little Soul." This inspirational piece encouraging strength and endurance in our children was wonderfully illustrated by Ms. Wendy Robinson,an artist out of Cape Town, South Africa. Together they have crafted a magnificent book for readers of all ages. In a recent interview with Awareness Magazine, O'Neal was asked,"How do you feel poetry relates to the average person?" She answered, "Well, it is difficult (especially during this day and time) to specify what an 'average' person is. As far as I know, I am an average person. I have good days and bad days, a family that I couldn't live without and at the same time they drive me crazy. I think that people from all walks of life have been introduced and possibly identified with some form of poetry being that much of what the words are about are average, everyday experiences and feelings

The Spirit of Frankin's Shoe Box

Stuff a few stockings with this Title

Who is Stormy Davis? Unlike his Ruby Raccoon character, Stormy was given that name just prior to his birth. Stormy grew up in Suffolk, Virginia and after a tour of duty in Vietnam in 1968, he moved to the Waterbury, Connecticut area. He is a Psych-nurse and formerly worked for the Department of Mental Health and Addictive Services for the State of Connecticut. Stormy enjoy working with people (especially the elderly and children). He is a lifelong volunteer for the State of Connecticut. He volunteers one and a half hour every Saturday morning, conducting bible studies and counseling against the use of drugs at a Connecticut Correctional center. Stormy has been married for over twenty years and has five sons and a daughter. He writes children stories for his seven grandchildren. Stormy has been writing since 1995. He learned creative writing at Springfield Technical Community College. Recently, he has benefited from a series of workshops via the computer. Stormy is the author of the recently published young adult novel titled "THE SPIRIT OF FRANKLIN'S SHOE BOX." This down to earth book give teens and young adults hope and inspiration to face today's overwhelming problems

The Spirit of Franklin's Shoe Box Many young people today are confused and have turned to drugs and alcohol for an outlet. They have this road hard and uncaring. Some have turned to suicide. Franklin was faced with this situation but found hope and inspiration through a shoebox left him by his deceased father.

Wanda L. Thomas - Both Books for $12.00

Stuff a few stockings with these Titles

Wanda L. Thomas has written two books on improving self-esteem in children. The books are written for both boys & girls which is exciting for the children because it will enable them to identify. We highly recommend these two titles as a wonderful addition to your holiday shopping list. You can cover both the girls and boys with the purchase of these two titles.
Get Them Here Today At C&B; Books.

Wanda L. Thomas was born in New York City. Ms. Thomas holds a Bachelor of Arts in Biology and Premedical Studies from the prestigious City University of New York's Baruch College. Presently CEO of her own Medical Transcribing business, Ms. Thomas, who has always had a great love for children, founded JCW Enterprises, Inc., a children's book publishing company. Recently, JCW Enterprises and Ms. Thomas published "Beautiful Me" and "Handsome Me." Both children's books are African-American driven and invoke positive affirmations of self-esteem for African-American children. Colorfully illustrated by London-based artist John Higgins, these fun, easy to read companion books (one dedicated to African-American girls and the other dedicated to African-American boys), are sure to be a necessity for any children's library whether public or private. Ms. Thomas currently resides in Harlem, New York.

The challenges that children must face, particularly during their tender, formative preadolescent period, are just as dramatic and significant for their future life orientation, as any that they might face during their years of growing into adulthood. As the African American community in general continues to face serious sociopolitical and economic challenges that often have broad psychological components, the need for well written, psychologically and pedagogically sound children's books that present young readers with models of resilience and self-esteem, is obvious. Among such sorely needed books are Handsome Me, and Beautiful Me, two companion books whose main characters are a preteen boy, in the first, and a girl of comparable age in the second. Written by Wanda Thomas, a native of Harlem, New York City, and beautifully illustrated by John Higgins, these two books help prepare children to deal effectively with the negative perceptions that others project upon them.

Monday's Child by Brenda Beamon-Isabell

Stuff a few stockings with this Title

Brenda Beamon-Isabell has been writing for the past decade. Her poem, entitled Imagine, was published in the 1997 National Library of Poetry - Days Gone By.
Her love for literature grew over the years and after a heart wrenching battle in court over the physical abuse of her disabled son, she began working on her first fiction novel, Monday's Child.
Brenda states, "I wanted to write about abused handicapped children because I feel many times these children's capabilities are so limited, their cries may go unheard. After months of research I discovered there were numerous books about child abuse, but not many that specifically addressed abuse of handicapped children." She further states, "I write fiction because it gives me a temporary escape from the real world. It provides

Welcome to Striking Presence Publications

About the Author
In West Philadelphia, born and raised, in the swimming pool is where I spent most of my days. Outside of that, there really was not much time for anything else. Life started to get a little more interesting once I went to the University of Pennsylvania, and joined the noble clan of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. My initiation experience made me realize that I could do anything I set my mind to doing. I am a teacher by profession, but I was bitten by the writing bug when I recognized that there are very few children's stories about black male characters, and also a small number of black male children's authors. Instead of just hoping that one day this void would be filled, I decided to fill it myself, and tell stories that reflect the positives of being an African-American male. We have a unique story that needs be told. Why am I a Striking Presence? That's simple. In every field I have entered; triathlon, elementary education, or children's literature, I have been strikingly different from the majority of my contemporaries, but that does not bother me. I use that as an opportunity to EDUCATE people about what a positive black man is all about.

First Day Blues "Meet Julius Carmichael: First Day Blues" is the first in what will be a series of books about Julius Carmichael, and eleven year old African-American boy. In "First Day Blues", Julius is all set for his first day of school. Everything is brand new, and he will have a male teacher for the first time. Things take a turn for the worst when he meets his new classmate, Beatrice Willingham. Julius must then figure out how to salvage, what was supposed to be the best day of the year.

Reviewer: The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers (see more about me) from RAWSISTAZ Book Club

Julius Carmichael is an eleven-year-old boy who attends a private Quaker school and is about to start the fifth grade. As a new school year approaches, Julius is excited to be going back to school because he has his first male teacher. Upon arriving he also finds that there is another black student in his class, which is a shock because he is often the only black person in his class. Things get off to a rocky start as Julius makes assumptions and judgements about his classmate and discovers that even he was misjudged by others.
Through this book children will learn that it is wrong to have preconceived notions about a person and to judge them without first getting to know them. Another positive aspect about the book is that it contains worksheets that correlate to each chapter. These worksheets are an excellent way to generate conversation regarding the issues in the book and a way for parents or teacheringham. Julius must then figure out how to salvage, what was supposed to be the best day of the year.

PLEASE BE SAFE THE HOLIDAYS ARE UPON US AND WE ALL NEED TO ENJOY THEM. PLEASE BE AWARE OF THE EVIL THAT LURKS AROUND EVERY CORNER. SMILING FACES SOMETIMES TELL LIES!!!!!

1. Tip from Tae Kwon Do: The elbow is the strongest point on your body. If you are close enough to use it, do!

2. Learned this from a tourist guide to New Orleans. If a robber asks for your wallet and/or purse, DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM. Toss it away from you.... chances are that he is more interested in your wallet and/or purse than you and he will go for the wallet/purse. RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!

3. If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car: Kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm out the hole and start waving like crazy. The driver won't see you but everybody else will. This has saved lives.

4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping, eating, working, etc., and just sit (doing their check book, or making a list,etc.
DON'T DO THIS! The predator will be watching you, and this is the perfect opportunity for him to get in on the passenger side, put a gun to your head, and tell you where to go. AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO YOUR CAR,LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE.

5. A few notes about getting into your car in a parking lot, or parking garage:
A.) Be aware: look around you, look into your car, at the passenger side floor, and in the back seat.
B.) If you are parked next to a big van, enter your car from the passenger door.
Most serial killers attack their victims by pulling them into their vans while the women are attempting to get into their cars.
C.) Look at the car parked on the driver's side of your vehicle, and the passenger side. If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest your car, you may want to walk back into the mall, or work, and get a guard/policeman to walk you back out. IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY. (And better paranoid than dead)

6. ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs. Stairwells are horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot).

7. If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control, ALWAYS RUN! The predator will only hit you (a running target) 4 in 100 times; And even then, it most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ. RUN!

8. As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic: STOP IT! It may get you raped, or killed. Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a good-looking, well educated man, who ALWAYS played on the sympathies of unsuspecting women. He walked with a cane, or a limp, and often asked "for help" into his vehicle or with his vehicle, which is when he abducted his next victim.

9. Another Safety Point Fwd: Crying Baby Someone just told me that her friend heard a crying baby on her porch the night before last, and she called the police because it was late and she thought it was weird. The police told her "Whatever you do, DO NOT open the door." The lady then said that it sounded like the baby had crawled near a window, and she was worried that it would crawl to the street and get run over. The policeman said, "We already have a unit on the way, whatever you do, DO NOT open the door." He told her that they think a serial killer has a baby's cry recorded and uses it to coax women out of their homes thinking that someone dropped off a baby. He said they have not verified it, but have had several calls by women saying that they hear baby's cries outside their doors when they're home alone at night. Please pass this on! and DO NOT open the door for a crying baby.





The Big Party- Submitted By: Jane Bloom

Well, as you know, it's time for my birthday again. Last year, they had a really big party for me and it seems like they will again this year. After all they have been shopping and preparing for it for months now, and there have been announcements and advertisements almost every day about how soon it's coming! They really do go overboard about it, but it's nice to know that at least one day of the year some people are thinking about me a little. You know, it's been many years now since they first started celebrating my birthday. Back then they seemed to realize and appreciate how much fun it is for the little children. Just the same, it seems that most folks are missing the point of it all.
Like last year, for example, when my birthday came around, they threw a big party, but can you believe it? I wasn't even invited! Imagine! The guest of honor, and they forgot all about me. Here they had begun preparing for the festivities months in advance, but when the big day came, I was left out in the cold! Well, it happened so many times in recent years, I wasn't even surprised. Even though I wasn't even invited, I thought I'd just quietly slip in anyway. So I came in and stood off to the side.
Everyone was drinking, laughing, and having a great time when all of a sudden came this fat fellow in a bright red suit, wearing a phony white beard shouting, "Ho ho ho!". He looked like he had more than enough to drink. When he collapsed into a big armchair, all of the children went running over to him excitedly yelling, "Santa! Santa!" I mean, you'd have thought he was the guest of honor and the whole holiday was just for him. Then he began telling them the most ridiculous story you ever heard! That he lives at the North pole with a crew of dwarfs and that every year on my birthday he rides in his sleigh pulled by a bunch of flying reindeer, delivering presents to children all over the world! I mean there wasn't a word of truth in anything that he said.
Finally I just had to leave. I walked out the door. It was no surprise that no one even noticed that I had gone. As I walked down the street afterward, I felt about as lonely and forlorn as a stray dog. I could not remember the last time I felt that low. Maybe you don't think I cry? The little manger scene you put in the corner of your living room is really touching! It's good that people commemorate my birthday like that. Did you know that nowadays, in some countries, the authorities won't even allow manger scenes placed in parks, streets, or public places anymore? Not to mention their schools! I'm not talking about Communist countries! I'm talking about the good, old USA. Imagine!
What could be more innocent than a manger scene to remind people of my birthday? Yet it's banned! They've passed laws against it to make it illegal. What is this world coming to? Another thing that amazes me is how, on my birthday, instead of giving me presents, most people give gifts to each other! And to top it off, it's usually the kind of stuff you don't even need! Let me ask you, wouldn't you find it odd if when your birthday came along, all your friends decided to celebrate by giving gifts to each and not giving you a thing? Someone once told me, "Well, it's because you're not around like most people are, so how can we give you a present?" You know my answer to that one?
"Then give gifts of food and clothing to the poor, give help to those who need it. Go visit the lonely! Any gift you give a needy fellow man, I'll count it as if you gave it to me personally." (See Matthew 25:34-40) Well, sad to say, things are getting worse every year. You can just imagine my shock a few years ago when I began seeing them taking the title out of my birthday greeting and replacing it with an 'X'? What an insult! Think of it! Xmas!...
What if I wrote you a birthday card and said Happy BirthdayX! You'd probably never talk to me again! That is just about how I feel. What more could they do to push me out of the picture on my own birthday? It reminds me of what happened to a friend of mine recently, a sweet, elderly fellow. He is from the poorer side of town, and he's been trying unsuccessfully for years to join the church. It was a very exclusive church for the proper kind of folks, and they just did not think he was good enough to be a member. I found him one time sitting by the church steps with his head on his hands bowed. I asked him what was wrong. He told me about it. I put my arm around his shoulder and told him I knew just how he felt. I've been wanting to enter that same church for 20 years and they've never let me in either. Well, there is an end to even my patience. So I'm going to let you in on a secret. Now this is something I have been planning on doing for quite sometime. I'll have my own party! How about that? It's going to be the most fantastic feast you could possibly imagine! It might not happen this year, but I'm sending out the invitations now. I know you'll want to come. There is going to be room for billions, for everyone who wants to come! Some really famous old timers and celebrities are gonna be there and I'll reserve you a seat of honor right with them (see Matthew 8:11). So hold on to your hat because when everything is ready, I'm going to spring it as a big surprise! Many people are going to be left out in the cold because they didn't answer my invitation. Let me know right away if you'd like to come. I'll reserve a place for you and write your name in large golden letters in! my great big Guest Book!

Much love, Jesus

Have you answered your invitation? Is your name written in His guest book?

Don't be left out!

HELP OUR TROOPS BY SENDING BOOKS TO THE MIDDLE EAST

Greetings all!! Every year during this time, RAWSISTAZ tries to put together some type of book donations program. This year, we're going to be sending books to the Middle East to a young lady and her company (U.S. Army) who have emailed me requesting our support. She is stationed in Baghdad, Iraq. They have been there for 7 months and will be there possibly through April 2004. She says:

It has been hard and tough for us, but we find little things to get through it. REading is one of them. A lot of us(mostly females), pass out books around so that we all have something to read, but our stock is slowly depleting and we are reading things over now. I don't know too much about raw sistaz, but I was wondering if you could possibly donate some books for us to read over here.

Being prior military and VERY grateful that I was able to get out when I did, my heart goes out to these women (and men), so this is the project I'd like to take on. I have begun mailing books to them and will continue to mail one box per week until she returns back to the U.S (or bi-weekly) depending on contributions. If you would like to participate, please mail your contributions to me at the address below. PLEASE BE SURE TO USE THIS EXACT ADDRESS so I can differentiate between books being sent for review and please include a note for them. If you are in one of the RAWSISTAZ Local Chapters (Atlanta, New York, North Carolina, Chi-Town, or Memphis), contact the Presidents and you can drop books off to them and they'll mail them on our behalf. A page on our site will be set up to track what's being sent and to share the responses from SPC Wilson.
