Disaster! Around the Bend

Coming Soon!!

My new book is a great story for all ages.  To be released in the winter 2025 Can’t wait!

Here is a quick blurb;

Twelve-year-old Jan Amelia McLean (or Jantastic, as she likes to be called) is afraid of lots of things – like finding new friends, being accepted at a new school and wild rivers, though she tries to hide it under her carefree, rather zany mask. The only person to whom she reveals her true hopes and fears is her best friend, Gaston, who listens well, but speaks little (after all, he is a donkey). After the big move, Jan is excited to go on the annual family canoe trip. Something familiar during this time of change. However, disaster strikes and once again she is proven to be inferior, when she throws down her paddle and hides her eyes, rather than face the, “I don’t wanna chute”.  She is mortified that her cowardice is revealed to her whole family, but is determined to prove that with her new found faith she can overcome this flaw. She devises a plan to take on the challenge of a kids-only canoe trip to the very same chute to prove that she is no longer afraid. But her high hopes seem to be dashed when calamity strikes just around the bend. Will Jan’s faith prove strong enough?

But, what is a donkey doing in a canoe??

Stay tuned – more details to follow.
