Foreword

How do children learn to set goals and accomplish them? It starts with a dream. Told from a childs perspective, I Have a Dream Too! By Kenneth Sessions, is a book about what happens when a child sets and achieves goals. All children have dreams. What makes achieving those dreams possible is having someone who believes in them. These everyday heroes give fuel to childrens dreams.

I would like to thank Kenneth Sessions for authoring this enchanting and inspiring book. Transporting you back to your childhood, he makes you remember a time when you dreamed big dreams, and saw the world with childlike wonder. Whether you are reading this book with your child at bedtime, or by yourself, as you read each story in I Have a Dream Too! you will recall the early dreams you had. You will also remember with fondness the people who encouraged those dreams. If it has been a while, you may even be inspired to start dreaming again when you see how ordinary situations and everyday heroes inspire a childs success.

I Have a Dream Too! is the kind of book every child needs in their library, a book that reminds them how important it is to dream. No matter how big or small we are, all of us need someone who believes in us and encourages us to have dreams too!

Acknowledgements

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the many people who saw me through this book; to all those who provided support, talked things over, read, wrote, offered comments, allowed me to quote their remarks and assisted in the editing, proofreading and design. I would like to thank Raymond Aarons Team for enabling me to publish this book. Above all I want to thank Pamela, for her inspirational stories. My family, who supported, encouraged and inspired me in spite of all the miles between us. As Santiago said in The Alchemist Its the reward at the end of a long and fulfilling journey that counts. Another big thanks to Irika Wade (Illustrator) - without your talent & gift to transition my visions to the stunning artwork this book would not be as beautiful.

Thanks to Raymond Aaron, my publisher, who guided me through the book publishing process and kept me encouraged.

Thanks to all the families that helped raise me to become a man, in my neighborhood (Myrtle Beach, SC) - without you this book would never have found its way to the Web, and to the many people who can read it and be inspired.

Last and not least: I offer thanks to all the teachers, coaches, team members, mentors, mangers, ministers and friends that encouraged, challenged, tested and made me laugh along the way.

Valuing family

Grandpa was a farmer with overalls always blue.

Not only did he carry cotton, but he would take care of me.

He taught me how to pick cotton; I had a little bag too.

Just be a cool grandpa whos creative, and hang out and tell stories and read a book in the library.

The value of doing good work

My father was a barber who cut lots of hair.

Buzz-buzz-buzzclip-clip-clip was the sound when I was there.

The customers were laughing and joking without a care.

My job was talking to customers and smiling forever more.

My father taught me the value of doing good work,

even when I swept the floor.

I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a fathers protection.

Sigmund Freud

The value of always doing your best

My aunt was a teacher.

She explained history and why civil rights were fought.

My aunt encouraged me to do my best

and remember what I was taught.

An A+ is her grade from me by the way she lived her life.

All nieces are brilliant and beautiful ... and obviously take after their aunt.

Challenge your dares

Go to bed little girl were the nightly words Momma would say.

Many times, we would look at the sky

and I would guess the number of stars twinkling bright.

Momma said you can keep guessing,

but only God knows if you are right.

Momma said, Dreamers dont forget to challenge their dares.

Now little girls, lay down to sleep and dont forget your prayers.

Mama was my greatest teacher, a teacher of compassion, love and fearlessness. If love is sweet as a flower, then my mother is that sweet flower of love.

Stevie Wonder

The value of being unique

Granny was my talking buddy with a twinkle in her eye.

She loved baking cakes and pies.

Granny built my confidence with the words she would say.

You are smart, pretty, strong, and free.

The magazine pictures are not how you should be.

She told me not to imitate others, just learn to be me.

People come in all shapes and sizes.

Loving yourself is all that matters.

Madea is a cross between my mother and my aunt. Shes the type of grandmother that was on every corner when I was growing up.
