Mrs. Collins' newest book, "Pip,
Squeak, and Zoom" is in final production stage. The adventures of three mice, written the form of chapters, are products
of stories told to the author's daughter when she was a child, (and the author was half asleep, trying to get her to bed
before retiring for the night.) Collns' "half awake" mind caused her imagination to soar. She told Cheryl (her
daughter) things that were often very amusing to her, because they were so unreal. After Cheryl grew up, married and had children
of her own, her boys learned to love hearing her version of these stories. The older boy asked his grandmother to write down
some of those stories, and that was the reason for them to be printed and published. The illustrations were drawn by the boys
themselves, and their cousin, Jasmine, another grandchild of the author.

On this island called Galveston, Texas,
African-Americans have a unique position in the history of the world. Natives of this city, and incoming residents, who were
people of color, were the pioneers of much of the civilization that occurred in this part of the world.
