Emily Grace and the Secret of Lavender Field

Hey there!

Well, I've been busy tweaking my children's book and it's now in the hands of my publisher! The illustrations have been completed by the design team and I've approved them. We've also got the interior design, cover (front and back) and background color completed...I'm just waiting for the mock-up to approve and then it's off to the printing press!! I'm really excited about this one! It will take children (and the young at heart) on a magical, whimsical, mystical journey through a beautiful fantasy world. Here's a short description:

Heartwarming, sincere and generously penned, Emily Grace and the Secret of Lavender Field is a playful tale for young, intermediate readers. It offers magic, mystery and a big lesson on honing one's inner strength and believing in the impossible. Sunny Hollow is a very special place filled with all sorts of animals. When a friendly turtle leads nine year old Emily Grace there, it becomes clear that she has been chosen to return something to the furry and feathery creatures she soon meets. Forced on a voyage of mythic proportions, Emily Grace will be helped by a tough but tender honeybee named Turbo, a raccoon named Ricochet and a very special fairy named Lady Lia. She'll also be up against an evil hawk named Kendra, who chants eerily, 'Is this river wish so true, and can this blue-eyed girl save you? The only way to end your wallow is find the secret and then swallow'. It's up to Emily Grace to solve the riddle and undo what's been done. It's an adventure of a lifetime leading to Lavender Field.
