A collection of poetry, stories and quotations celebrating mothers: for Mother's Day, birthdays, new mothers, or anytime you want a little more than a card.

Furious at losing the part of Alice in the school play, Sammy quarrels with her friend Kerri, her mother, and even her cat, Peaches. But Peaches won't let her wallow in self-pity, and nudges her up the magical moonbeam path again. There she faces a more challenging role as she accompanies the cats, Peaches and BB, on a mission. From jabberwocks and carnivorous humpties to hyperactive pixie soldiers and a girl-eating dandelion, there's plenty of excitement along the way. And that's just the beginning. Can Sammy solve a mystery and make peace between two quarreling queens?

Teeka learns that a planet is much bigger than the three city-states she's familiar with as she sails into uncharted waters. Even more exciting is her venture into the world of her peers, as she tries to understand and navigate the world of young adults and proper etiquette. From stormwatching with gillys to facing down a mountain lion, experiencing the pangs of first love, battling the bureaucracy, kidnapped by pirates and carried by a storm to a land beyond the maps where she deals with earthquakes and a volcanic eruption, there's never a dull moment and always lessons to learn.

How do you get down from a door in the sky? By dragonback, of course. With the help of her new cat, Peaches, Sammy climbs back up the moonbeam seeking advice for dealing with her fear of heights and the dreaded rope climb at school. In the process of helping Princess Selena with her problems, Sammy finds the answer to dealing with her own fears.

The adventures of Teeka, a telepathic apprentice healer, continue. The prophecy says that Teeka will "mend the broken world" and "spread the gift of healing to the stars." She's already made a start on bringing peace to her planet, although she has more challenges to come. But what if she couldn't go to the stars? Would the people from the stars come to her? And would they be friendly? Now thirteen, Teeka faces more complications dealing with her peers, as well as having her life turned upside down by various visitors from off-planet. Her life may never be the same again.

Sammy follows her cat, Princess Buttermilk Biscuit (BB for short) up a moonbeam to a magical world.

Sammy feels as though her world has caved in when her mom has to move to another city to get work. She grasps what may be her last chance to introduce her friend Kerri to Selena's world, and the two are off on an exciting adventure to rescue BB and a group of homeless refugees. Their allies include shape-shifting elves who can turn into unicorns, and dragon-hunting, nomadic kizzees, who look a little like koalas. Both the kizzees and the unicorns are exiles from Princess Selena's home world, displaced by The Dark, and parties to an age-old feud, which complicates matters a little.

This is a collection of fantasy and science fiction short stories. Each involves a quest or journey. All are "family-friendly" if not specifically aimed at children.

Be careful what you wish for... Angelina already has a gift. She can sometimes make herself invisible, or at least cause people not to notice her. But the gillys, the semi-mythical little people who befriend her, can do so much more. Angelina is certain she'll attain true happiness if only her "fairy" friends will give her one of their "magic stones." As in most fairy tales, the results are not as expected, but one can't really blame the gillys. Adventure, true love, a dastardly villain, broken hearts and a seed of hope This is a "prequel" to the story of Teeka, Angelina's daughter, in the Apprentice Healer series. The first chapter of To Heal a Broken Planet is included. Publication of that novel, and its sequel, Into the Unknown, is pending.

Climb a moonbeam to a magical world. A letter from Sammy's long-absent father sparks feelings of anger and betrayal. How can she ever trust him again? Helping a fairy child cross an angry sea, complete with sea dragons, to negotiate peace between two warring factions, Sammy learns that forgiving and forgetting are not the same thing, and trust can be rebuilt, if both parties are willing to work at it.

A "gift book" collection of stories and poems, quotations both Biblical and secular, favorite old hymns, and a few recipes compiled for your Christmas enjoyment. Use it as a stocking stuffer, for when you want more than just a card, and as a treat for yourself.

Mix a regressed society, a former space colony recovering from a long ago disaster, with an off-world group searching for new medicines. Add the indigenous, telepathic "little people" to the mix, throw in a society of psychic healers, and maybe a cat with interesting friends. Narrow the focus to a special child who may or may not be the child of prophecy but at least has connections to all the others. The fate of her world may depend on the child learning the secrets of her past-if the darkest secret doesn't catch up with her first.

Chosen without her knowledge to be groomed as a "secret weapon" or troubleshooter by The Little Sisters of Charity, Teeka is thrust into the shadow world of interplanetary intrigue and conspiracy lacking information, her training still incomplete. Can she and companion Rico scramble fast enough to deal with one challenging situation after another? Ready or not...
