 OUR PHILOSOPHY
At
Little Treasure Books,
we
strongly believe in the creativity and
genuine talent of many writers whose voices
would go unheard if it were not for the
independent publisher. Twelve years
ago, the companys owner took a leap of
faith, along with the economic risks
necessary, to introduce new authors to those
readers looking for books that offer hope,
encouragement, and inspiration. We sincerely accept
this responsibility, and remain dedicated and
determined to give these gifted writers the
opportunity to have their stories told.
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to
publish books of integrity that speak to the hearts,
minds, and souls of our readers . . . gently putting
them in touch with their inner core, ultimately
offering them a place of solace. . . a place where
they can be who they are and at peace wherever they
are along lifes journey.
OUR GOAL
It
is our objective to remain selective in
choosing the books we publish. In
doing so, Little Treasure vows to uphold the
highest of standards and produce only those
books that will inspire, enrich, and leave
readers with a positive message.

LOVE THIS YEAR BY PURCHASING THIS BOOK IN
MEMORY OF MONICA ANNE AVERHOFF, A CHILD POET WHOSE
INSIGHTFUL POETRY REMINDS US OF THE GIFT OF LIFE AND
THE PRIVILEGE WE HAVE TO HELP THOSE LESS FORTUNATE.
IN MEMORY OF MONICA ANNE AVERHOFF
AUTHOR OF TOMORROW: RAISING AN ANGEL
There
was once a young girl who saw the world as One
She thought about the
pain of others while she had fun
Its not fair she
would tell friends, her sister, dad and mom
We are all Gods
children and should laugh and sing as One
She saw through the inequity of the place we
call home
Understood that some
live life together, others alone
Its a big world this
place in which we live, her poetry told
We must give of
ourselves to the less fortunate, both young and
old
Times are few when a prophetic child, like
Monica Anne
Comes to earth for
such a short time offering us a hand
Sharing her wisdom,
leading the way, teaching us to stand
Not just as a nation
but in unity throughout this great land
Today I thank you
Monica for having had the courage of so few
To take this journey,
living the words you knew to be true
Enlightening,
encouraging, inspiring all those you knew
To spread your message
of love, as did the Lady in Blue
Bernadette Garzarelli
Dedicated to those who lost their life to
Hurricane Katrina along
America's Gulf Coast
"Death ends a life but it does not end a
relationship which struggles on in the survivor's
mind toward some resolution which it may never
find. Alice said I would not accept the sadness of
this world. Did it matter if I never loved him or
if he never loved me? Perhaps she was right, but
still when I hear the word 'father' it matters."
Quotation from movie titled, "I
Never Sang for my Father"
The sadness of this world, whether familial or
worldly, is felt by each of us at some time whether
we are cognizant of it or not. The power of this
sadness impacts our moods and our relationships.
As everything is converse, should there be no
sadness in life we would be
blinded from the joy of life. It is our choice to
allow sadness to overwhelm
joy, just as it is our choice to live life in light
rather in the dark. And so
it is that if the survivor of a loved one is able to
accept the fact that the
resolution they struggle for may never be found,
this survivor shall live in the light.
Bernadette Garzarelli, Publisher
