About

My name is Denise L. Cook, known as The ORACLE. I am a vessel, an Oracle forever after the order of Melchizedek. A wise woman with sage advice.  My book, The ORACLE Speaks... just because, is a book of positive, motivational, inspirational poetry, prose and song. The words I write are not my own, they are messages needed to be heard and understood. The words I share bring life to self-love. If music is the universal language of love, and 'harmony is the speech of Havona', then G-d's words are the universal language for life. I love my life, my children, my man and you, all G-d's children. Enjoy your read. Find truth between the lines and enlightenment and understanding in the content.

Description

<p>&quot;I am strong, and my flash is bright, And I will defend you and make things all right.&quot; These are the magic words to call upon Manner-Man - a superhero who can help control bullies and teach children ways to be considerate of others. Manner-Man arrives, shouting &quot;To the Rescue&quot;, helping children learn about sharing and warning about not 'hitting with words.' He teaches that if someone starts pushing, just shout out &quot;not nice!&quot; Meet the children who form the Manner-Man team and find out how to join! Manner-Man incorporates messages and characters found within some of Cannon's earlier books - helping children learn how to cope with bullies and look within themselves for their inner superhero! This is the fifth rhyming children's book by this award-winning author whose other bestselling books include Gimme-Jimmy, The Magic Word, Peter and the Whimper-Whineys and Santa's Birthday Gift. Former teacher Sherrill S. Cannon has won a dozen awards for her four previous rhyming books and is also the author of six published and internationally performed plays for elementary school children. She has been called &quot;a modern day Dr.Seuss&quot; - GMTA Review. Publisher's website: http://sbpra.com/SherrillSCannon</p>
