Originally written as practice stories, this collection became bedtime stories for Jewel Star's infamous niece AUTUMN JACKSON, the alleged daughter of entertainer BILL COSBY. Autumn was involved in a situation that became her undoing and landed her in court. As a relief from the tedious and often depressing days of courtroom drama, Star would read her niece the quickly written stories at night. It gave Autumn a respite from her situation and a few moments enjoyment in a world of fantasy-where most things worked out alright. TUMBLEWEED has been one of Star's bestselling short stories and earned the name for the title of this first volume. Star was lucky enough to do a lot of traveling in her younger years, and the stories in this volume take you from the jungles of Mexico to the mysteries of the Orient. They include sex, romance, a dragon, a ghost, and a little witchcraft. After you read TUMBLEWEED: And Other Adult Bedtime Stories, be sure to order the true-life story of COSBY'S LOVE CHILD also written by Jewel Star.
