Descriptions of the Seven Books:


Little Lev’s Garden:

A delightful illustrated book of rhymes that parents will love to read and children will love to hear.
Little Lev’s Garden is the heartwarming story of a little boy growing up in a very special garden. The beautiful rhyming descriptions of plants, animals, seasons and more, and the enchanting original watercolor illustrations will be sure to captivate children of all ages.


The Back Door to the Universe:

A humorous sci-fi adventure for children who are ready to dive into chapter books.
When a back door to the universe appears in the back yard of nine year old Jake and his six and a half year old sister Aurora, they find themselves thrust into a bizarre quest to save the earth—if it really needs saving. Led by a bumbling humanoid named Zizzu, together with Oddly, a badger who loves odd facts, and Preska, a giant fuzzy ladybug with a soft heart for children, they stumble through a host of zany adventures before reaching an unexpected conclusion on the planet Ternatec. Full of humor and adventure, this imaginative tale is sure to be entertaining for children of all ages. Stuffy adults may wish to keep their distance


Distillations from the Storms of Life:

The heartache of unspeakable tragedy distilled into bittersweet drops of wisdom and unconquerable hope.
On the great plains, a thunderstorm is one of nature’s fiercest faces. Its terrifying power seems inimical to life. It can and does K*ll. And yet, in one of the world’s great ironies, it also distills life-giving moisture from the heavy air and pelts the earth with what it needs to thrive. Sometimes, the weather rages without; and sometimes, it rages within. When grief and loss crush the human heart, when anguish rips deep furrows in the soul, when death and darkness are all around and life and light are lost—what will become of us then? Hold onto hope; hold onto love; when the storm has passed, as all storms do, then we may find the Garden of Heaven growing up from the roots of hell. The power of Love may yet turn the chaos of destruction into the beauty of unconquerable life.
	This book is my best attempt to bring something helpful and universal out of the deadliest storm that ever raged in my life: the unexpected loss of my beloved daughter.
	No matter how the storms may rage, I wish you the best, my dear fellow-survivors.


Things She Saw:
Photos left behind by a daughter. Poems to describe them from a bereaved father.
Love, hope, joy, sorrow, grief, wisdom, pain and the stubborn refusal to give up mingle together in a sort of beauty that can be fully understood only by those who have been through their own soul-searing loss.


Moments of a Pensive Life:
A reproduced journal that records the highest highs and lowest lows of a sensitive soul on a journey through the whole of human experience.
At the beginning, a mere three years after the passing of my daughter, I am unexplainably giddy with the sheer thrill of being alive. At the end, I find a place of hope and joy once again. But in the middle, when my pen refuses to accept my platitudes and excuses, when sickness and the agony of remembered regrets and failures and loss threaten to undo me, I pour out the tortures of my soul.
	Raw, sometimes painful and sometimes ecstatic, always honest and probing, it reveals my heart at its most vulnerable.
	Be well, dear people of the world.


The Book of the Child:
A gritty tale of brutal warfare and conniving plots in the vein of the ancient sagas by which various peoples seek to come to terms with their emergence from the violent history of humanity. The first of five installments.
In this provocative, tightly-plotted high fantasy, two nations lay claim to the same piece of land. Each of them believes they have a mandate from God to destroy every man, woman and child of the other. But one day, a soldier looks at a child, sees something human, and refuses to K*ll him.
	This child will grow up among an antagonistic people, with no father, no mother, and no name. He will suffer much, and learn to live by his precocious wisdom and his invincible spirit. As he rises to the heights of power, he is confronted with many forces that seek to cast him down.
	Even though he accomplishes great things for his adoptive nation, he may be forced to pay an unimaginable price.
	This is his book, the first book of The Book of Five: The Book of the Child.
[TW: contains scenes of warfare and violence which may be disturbing to some readers.]


Men on a Leash:
A gripping thriller unlike anything you’ve read.
All Ainsley needs is a little break from her job at the nursing home, but her crazy friend Callie somehow talks her into taking her two-year-old son, Eustace, to a luxury lodge in the Canadian Arctic, for a ten-day retreat.
	Brand only wants to escape from the island where he’s been stranded, but in the meantime he has to get ready for the coming winter. When he encounters an abandoned child, his world will change.
	When fate throws the two of them together, they’ll have to learn how to lean on each other if they want to survive the wilderness—and the unknown hunter who sees them as prey. Will they live long enough to discover the shocking truth?
[Contains some intense scenes and disturbing psychological themes. Nothing graphic.]
