Frannie who has to make many new adjustments due to her father’s job relocation becomes empowered to help another.  She finds herself juggling new problems, but somehow rises above her woes.  She is not only lonely because she now has to make new friends, and attend a new school, but she also has a twin brother who torments her very soul.

Frannie finds herself enthralled in an eerie situation.  She becomes involved in detective work, and is put in a position that calls for a life or death decision.  Frannie must find a killer, capture him and do it without anyone else knowing she is involved.

This is a story of a young girl who misses her mother and can’t figure out what has happened to her.  Her family depends heavily on her support and she is dragged into danger by an unexpected ghostly being.

The book is a page turner and holds your interest to the end of the last paragraph.  It’s filled with dilemma, drama, sibling rivalry, mystery, and many things that can concern a young girl and boy.  If you like ghosts, mystery, and waiting for the next page to suck you in further, you’re going to like his book. 

Some of the expressions used by the kids were foreign to me, but all in all it did not detract from the excitement of the story.  I very much enjoyed this book and recommend it to teens and adults alike.

After a partially-covered body displaying unusual physical characteristics was found in the backwoods of Virginia, FBI agent Jack Stanwick is once again summoned. This was the third victim to be discovered in this condition, and with most of the brotherhood on another high-profile case, he needed some outside help. Jack knew just where to go. He hires three former police officers who work for the Davenport Detective Agency. During the initial investigation, the detectives focus their attention on the militia group, M.A.G.O.C. (Men Against Government Overtaking Control), only to find that several members and a high-ranking official in the White House are involved in a governmental conspiracy. Digging further, the detectives come upon Prescott Chemicals, where an elixir that was discovered in the Amazon Rain forest by the Mayapo natives years before, is now being transformed into a formula with irreversible consequences. While investigating a lead, the detectives accidentally come into contact with the elixir and experience a change to their bodies and minds causing some amusing, yet permanent issues. With the assistance of a beautiful journalist and a bitter French physicist, the detectives come upon the location of the perpetrators and uncover a plot which culminates into the betrayal and a secret that affects one of detectives, changing his life.

A heartwarming story of a boy who over comes his fears by applying his efforts and following the path of Jesus. Ben has to prove to his family he is responsible enough to take on summer camp and look in the face of everything that scares him.  In the process he proves to be a hero with his handicapped friend Mary who has lost her service dog and also his new found homeless friend Jeremy.

This is a book that will hold the interest of children, but also the reader will be able to identify with Ben’s fears and sibling rivalry. Janet Ann Collins has written a story that teaches compassion, alerts a child to the hardships of others in life. 

The story awakens children to the troubles some people have in their lives, and shows them how God interacts through all of us in ways we never expect.

The characters Ben and Tom develop personal growth both in daily life and in spiritual being.  Great story and inspiring book for kids.   Lots of stars for this one.

Bedtime Kisses

A beautiful little interpretation of a child who savors the bed time ritual.   When waiting for Mommy, kisses are given to all who wait in the play area.  In the end furry friends and child are tucked in bed after learning to count to ten.

The adorable illustrations by Ginger Nielson pop from the page, are soft, bright, enticing and are sure to be a child pleaser.  Bedtime Kisses written by Karin Larson is a resource book for toddlers learning to count to ten and also for Young children beginning to read.

I think this would be a perfect end of the day story with a soft and soothing feel that helps a child experience the bedtime tuck-in with security and contentment. 

Loved this book for its overall pleasing feel and affect. 

Stars and treats for this one!
