My Lovely Sunshine

   Here I have rewritten the traditional song "You are Sunshine" to be heartwarming and up-lifting. 

 I rewrote the poem and added one of my own inner-lacing the two to tell a new singular story.


I image it as the story of a little boy, I prefer a little black boy, who is having a hard day and can't handle the emotions.  But his mother is there - or perhaps his father, could be both - to give him the mature emotional support a young child needs.  


This one will be queried very soon.  Stay tuned for updates.  



Jasmine Smalls: The Case of the Disappearing Seashell

               

     "The Case of the Disappearing Seashell" is the first book in the Jasmine Smalls series. In this issue Jasmine Smalls and her family go to the beach!  After having a hard time Jasmine discovers a lovely treasure.  Now she just needs to  keep it from disappearing long enough to learn what's inside of it!


This is a charming story about a young girl who wants to be a detective.  Her mysteries are as small as she is but she learns a big lesson in every issue.  


The Case of the Disappearing Seashell will teach curiosity and conservation to the youngest readers.  I hope The Jasmine Smalls Series will encourage more little girls to get out there and dig in the dirt!  


    This will be a four book series.  As I work on the other three stories I'm researching how to get them published in the traditional way.
