There are two stories on this edition of Valley Writers Read.

Our first story is by David Creighton and is titled, "War's Confluence". It asks whether or not children of people who fought on opposite sides in war can overcome certain prejudices and biases implanted in them.

And then, Gary Hill reads our second story, the magical fable "Hanna and the Magical Cucucaroo".
