And the first step is as simple as holding one's head high and looking for the good news that's all around you." |

Like the child's journey in the story, the production of No Bad News would not have been possible without the support and goodwill of the people of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Through volunteer efforts on hot summer days numerous residents of Milwaukee's inner-city gave of their time and homes to participate and guide this book to its completion. Dr. Cole feels that as a result No Bad News has a realistic quality that captures the beauty and kindness of an often misunderstood community. Says Dr. Cole, "It was truly inspiring to see the themes of No Bad News; those of hope, self-determination and resilience, materialize in the very people and neighborhoods who welcomed us during the production of this book. It is their kindness and generosity that are the embodiment of the good news in our world." |
