Standing O! Tribute is the fourth volume in the Standing O! series, and it is as much a mindset as it is a book. Being grateful for the people in our lives that love, teach and support us, and letting them know how much they mean to us is a wonderful way to live. The hope is that this series of essays on gratitude will help to inspire people to think about the positive impact people have had on their lives and share their gratitude in order to cause a ripple effect.

A novel based on a true tale of heroism and invention in the tunnels beneath Lake Erie in 1916  This original graphic novel imagines the lives of blue-collar workers involved in the real-life Lake Erie tunnel disaster of 1916 in Cleveland. Author Scott MacGregor and illustrator Gary Dumm tell the intersecting stories of a brilliant African American inventor, Ben Beltran (based on the real-life Garrett Morgan, Sr.), desperate immigrants tunneling beneath Lake Erie, and corrupt overseers who risk countless lives for profit. As historical fiction, Fire on the Water sheds light not only on one of America’s earliest man-made ecological disasters but also on racism and the economic disparity between classes in the Midwest at the turn of the century.
