Based on the true story of a family pet, my book “The Underdog with The Underbite”, is an uplifting and encouraging story about overcoming life obstacles against all odds. It would make a great gift because it encourages and inspires young readers to greatness by letting them know that they can overcome every obstacle that life puts in their way. For all the kids that were told you’re not smart enough, not pretty enough, not good enough, not cool enough, or otherwise discounted as not being enough, I wrote this book for YOU. May you find inspiration, encouragement, and an alter ego in the life of Spud “The Underdog”, who inspires you to overcome every obstacle you face in life.

Does anyone know anything about the place where they live? If one is trying to get through school, one will need to learn.As one gets older how your home land was built becomes interesting. However, the information available is often far too dry. I attempt to be entertaining within my novels but still supply information … and there is documented history in all of them.

You’re right. Books make wonderful gifts. “Colors of Joy: A Woman’s Guide for Self Discovery, Balance, and Bliss” is bound to be appreciated, because its journal writing activities and self-care exercises are colorful, distinctive, and fun to use.

My newest novel The Frozen Sea is a cultural quest about the possibility of some of Franz Kafka’s papers being hidden in Venice, Italy. Readers who love intelligent mysteries with vignettes of historical fiction starring figures from literature will love it. It’s third in a series of European cultural adventures featuring the amateur sleuth Bryn Awbrey.

My Division One series, available in print and ebook formats, is a fun science fiction/mystery/action-adventure romp around the globe and across the galaxy, suitable for Young Adult and up! This is my take on the urban legend of the unique group of men and women who show up at UFO sightings, alien abductions, etc. and make evidence… disappear… to depict my vision of the universe we don’t know about. But watch out! Things aren’t always what they seem!

The ongoing series starts with Book 1, Alpha and Omega:

Who doesn’t love the outdoors/nature? I’ve written two hiking books, “Hiking Southwest Utah and Adjacent Areas, Volumes 1 and 2” which make great presents for the outdoors people in your family. My wife Deb and I hiked all of the 50 different hikes (25 in each book). The books contain locator maps, trail maps, and many color photos (I took them all), along with detailed directions to the trailheads.

Elle’s Magical Shoes has the right formula for readers young and old alike. When you give a child a book as a present, you want it to be entertaining. My book mixes real-life with fantasy and incorporates family, friendship, loyalty, and forgiveness. Readers will be entertained, but they may learn some valuable lessons.

I’ve heard from children that they really liked the book. One finished it on her plane trip to Florida. I had a grandmother tell me that she had to read the book over and over again to her grandchild at the grandchild’s request. I’ve heard from adults that they enjoyed reading the book too. A teacher read the book to a classroom, so even though the title has a girl’s name in it, boys can find something in the book also.
