Life Lessons and Tales of Little MisFit: LIFE IS LIKE A FOUNTAIN - IT HAS ITS UPS (Opportunities and Successes) AND DOWNS (Disappointments and Failures) by Dr. S.K. GruninIn Life Lessons and Tales of Little MisFit - Book 1: "Life Isn't Always What It Seems," we are introduced to the main character Ivy Sue Klutz (Little MisFit - LMF) - as she narrates her first memory at the age of three and ties it in to Lesson 1, Life Isn't Always What It Seems. The book continues using humorous tales about Lesson 1 through her fourth year of primary school where we leave her. Book 2 picks up with LMF starting her next year of school at the age of ten and learning through humor the next Life Lesson that "Life Isn't Always Fair."In Book 3, Ivy Sue Klutz (Little MisFit - LMF) begins her most challenging years of her life - ages 11-15 or Middle School into High School. Where we last saw Little Misfit, she was fishing with her family the weekend before she started 6 th grade. She was about to turn 11 years old. She was having the time of her life. In Book 3, she learns another important Life Lesson: Life Is Like a Fountain- It Has Its Ups (opportunities/successes) and Downs (disappointments/failures). Through these humorous tales we see just how LMF learns to handle both "Ups" and Downs" in her life. This book shows "betweeners' - ages 11-12 and young teens ages 13-15, how LMF began to prepare for the most challenging times of her young life. In this book we see how Little MisFit copes with the limited means of her family while she attended middle and high schools. Furthermore, we she that she was not allowed to take certain classes (woodshop) or have opportunities to play sports in school or attend events that she was invited to. Yet, LMF overcomes those and other challenges - changes in body and bullying, and learns to find, value and celebrate the Ups - opportunities and successes. AMAZONhttps://skg-creations.com/https://www.youtube.com/@susangrunin3536http://www.KingPagesPress.com   http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/10925kpp1.mp3
