Kindle Edition $2.99 now FREE
Okay Johnson is the story of an African okapi
who finds himself trapped in a New York City zoo. With much ridicule, from the
zoo animals, Okay Johnson tries to get along, until one day, two people come to
the zoo from a parade which passes by. The zoo animals make fun of Okay because
of his unusual coat. They laugh at him because he looks funny to them and not
like a traditional zoo animal. The two people from the parade are dressed in
animal print clothing. Okay thinks they are animals and questions why they are
not in an enclosure. The 3 eventually plan to escape from the zoo. After they
escaped, Okay tries to blend in with his city surroundings. Blending in, is
what Okay does best. With his new friends, Okay has a variety of experiences
that are unique to New York City, but he still longs for his homeland in
Africa. His final escape is from New York back to his homeland in the Ituri
Forest in Africa.
American and
Canadian Expatriate Writings on Mexico
By: George Puckett and others
Kindle Edition $6.99 now FREE
This book is about and written by American and
Canadians living in Mexico.
Several years ago I posted a blurb to several Yahoo Groups representing several cities in Mexico. In the post I used the term expatriate in reference to Americans living in Mexico. One gentleman took offense. He replied to the post that he was not an expatriot just because he lived in Mexico. He went on to state that he loved his country and that he was still a Patriot. He failed to notice the difference in the spelling of the two words.
The word “Expatriate” is defined in a number of dictionaries and other sources as Wikipedia defines it, “In its broadest sense, an expatriate is any person living in a different country from where he or she is a citizen.”
For the purpose of this Anthology, we will use the Wikipedia definition.
This book is a compilation of writings by Americans and Canadians living in Mexico either full time or part time.
As the author of several chapters and the compiler of this anthology I feel that the reader will gain valuable insight into the expatriate experience. Beyond the reading, the readers of these contributions have the opportunity to go directly to the websites of the various contributors to communicate directly with them.
