Featured Books
Is your child or student a writer? If learning how to write great stories is something they'd like to learn, then this book is for them. I’ve published a lot of books and short stories, and in this book I'll show budding young authors how to make their stories unforgettable. The activities in this book are meant to transform all kids—from the hesitant writer to the budding young novelist—into highly skilled and motivated writers. Interested? What are you waiting for? Let’s get started! |
Danger is waiting for Olivia and Alex when Professor Feathers whisks the children off to Antarctica to find their lost penguin, Flipper. It will take more than courage to save them from a terrifying blizzard--they will need help from some unlikely friends. Will the children find Flipper before it's too late? Or will this mission leave them frozen in fear? |

Coming Soon in Spring, 2019! The Quest continues for Olivia and Alex. This time they travel to the Amazon Rainforest, where danger lurks in the jungle.
