"John C. Melanin is a mystery. His personal history is like a deep dark hole of nothingness. Is he faking an identity? Is he a real person at all?

If I said anything more, it would be a spoiler to you, so just read it, you’ll like it.”

This is a story of Billy Bob, a very, very happy little boy.
It was the dawn of a bright and beautiful day in the small and sleepy town of Porterville; a little Billy Bob was just waking up from a wonderful night’s sleep. He dreamed of the special toys he had just received. He dreamed about the many fun activities at his school, and he dreamed about his many, many good friends.
But that day, Billy Bob was going to have a very, very big surprise.
Once upon a time, there lived a very good farmer who had a large farm in a prosperous farming community.
Farmer Jonathan and his good wife Sarah had three children named Paula Lynn, Rachel, and Peter, who loved them very much. There were also many good animals on their farm.
Because everywhere wasn’t doing too well, Jonathan’s farm wasn’t making as much as in years past, and he searched ways to improve his farm and make more for his family. He talked the situation over with Sarah, and they had no choice but to sell their prize-winning cow, Daisy.
The rustling of the vibrant brown, green, and yellow leaves; mixed-colored twigs; and the symphonic chirping of the mother bird and her babies awakened Grandmother Lucy from one of her Passadobles dreams. She turned her head, which was resting comfortably on her down-feathered pillow, and smiled as she observed the Quaker family.
Riding the yellow bus line on a weekday, right to the end of the line was one of Grandmother Lucy’s favorite and most treasured pastimes.
It was always an early-morning, two-hour bus ride, and Grandmother Lucy would always sit in the front seat of the bus, not too far from the bus driver, Miss Harriet.
