This life is the only life I know, and so, I live it to the fullest! Look, I know there's more to life than what I get to see but what am I supposed to do? This is the life my dad created for us, the life I was born into, ya know. I'm not complaining, it's just, I'm fourteen years old, I have no friends, and I have absolutely no idea why we've been living this way. All I know is that my dad is crazy! Wait, don't get me wrong he's a pretty cool dad and all, I mean, he really tries to understand. It's just, he's been 'training' me every day of my life, like, ever since the day I could walk. As a matter of fact, I'm pretty sure he coached me into walking earlier than I would have, given the chance at a normal childhood Lol. Yet the weird part is, if you asked me though, I have no regrets. I just couldn't tell you what I was training for. Dad just says it's important that I know this kind of stuff . . . Oh! And yeah, in case you were wondering, the idiot jumping through the window without any idea of how it he's going to land . ., is me. You're probably just as lost as I am right now. So let me save everyone a lot of confusion, and start from the beginning . . . well, sort of, well hm, let's start at the acts leading up to my fourteenth birthday. Trust me, you didn't miss much before then. Aight so boom, here we go. My name is Auraluke Rust, and this . . . this is the BrixCity Sagas."

Have you ever wondered who your little ones are looking up to? Who they are, what they stand for, and so many other things? In today's world, our children are being influenced by many "idols" or "heroes" that are not necessarily the best role models for them. There are some really great influential people that are famous that are great role models for our children, but there are many that are not. Just because a person is not famous through the public eye, does not mean he or she can't be a good role model for our children. This children's book encourages children to look at heroes, or role models to look up to, all around them in everyday life. Firefighters that save lives from burning buildings, emergency room nurses that save lives from tragic accidents, next-door neighbors that deliver food when a young mother has just birthed her first born child, little girls setting up a lemonade stand on the street to sell Girl Scout cookies that go to a good cause, and so many more people that are in our everyday lives that go above and beyond their normal job or duties for the day to lend out a helping hand to make a difference in our lives are everyday heroes. So, this book encourages not only children to look up to the proper role models, but for parents to train up a child in the way, he or she should go, as the Bible teaches us to do. And, ultimately the hero that we should want to model after, and be more like every single day is the one who gave his life for us, Jesus.

This book is to encourage other kids my age that has lost a Dad to always know that he lives in your heart and to keep doing all things you enjoyed doing together forever!
