"The Adventures of Lily and Leon" addresses the social stigma surrounding diversity in relationships. The story is told in fun, lighthearted terms so the message is easily understood by a child.
It's a tale about two young fish, Lily, a beautiful white sea bass, and Leon, a sleek black sea bass, who meet under bumpy circumstances in the deep waters of the Green Gulf.
Peer pressure from Lily's schoolfishfriends is fierce. Bonita warns Lily, "It's wrong to swim with a dark-scaled fish when you are white-scaled." Leon is confused and hurt because he's not readily accepted by the fishcommunity. He considers swimming back to The Bay of Bubbles where he would fit in and could comfortably swim with other fish. But, he doesn't want to leave his new friend, Lily.
Lily is only happy when she's dipping and diving in Dragon Fish Lagoon with Leon. She doesn't understand why the color of their skin is an issue with her peers. Both young bass are deeply affected by the opinions of Lily's schoolfishfriends, which nearly keeps them from developing a friendship.
Through their underwater games and adventures, and their brush with the dangerous Seafalcons, they're eventually able to learn, and then teach others, that it's okay when friends come in many colors.
Cynthia's cookbooks have a home-spun feel that show her passion for cooking and baking. Her children's fable was created out of a need for parents to be more attentive about teaching their children that, no matter the color of our skin, our innermost need for love and acceptance is the same in all our hearts.
Cynthia's popular newspaper food columns (over 200 of them) have appeared in various publications since 1999. Her work has also appeared in New Mexico Magazine, New Mexico Woman, Funds for Writers, Woman's World Magazine, and Seasons of Our Lives: Summer, Autumn and Spring editions.
She has contributed to the Chicken Soup series with an essay in Chicken Soup for the Mother and Son Soul, Sister's Soul 2, Divorce and Recovery, My Resolution, Food and Love, Just Us Girls, The Dog Did What?, Finding My Faith, The Dog Did That?, My Crazy Family, Tough Times Won't Last-But Tough People Will and Step Out of Your Comfort Zone.
Briggs has talked food, writing and techniques for living a more gratifying life on radio and TV, at rotary clubs and women's associations, and at schools and universities. She teaches publishing to budding authors and memoir writing to those who wish to capture and then share their stories with upcoming generations. Her books are filled with family oriented stories and recipes that come from the heart.
