CHAPTER BOOKS

My Chapter Books have been very popular, with the DRAGONLING series leading the pack. I wrote the first book in the DRAGONLING series when my youngest son was in the third grade. He had to do a book report and it had to be on a chapter book. He said he wanted it to be about a dragon because dragons were his second favorite animals, next to dogs. Back then, we couldn’t find a chapter book about dragons. “That’s not a problem, Mom,” my son said. “You’re a writer. Write me one!” I thought that was so funny that I decided to do just that. Each day I wrote a chapter, and each day he came home from school and read it. When it was done, we made it into a book (see my Make A Book page), he did his book report on it and he got a A! For my part, I sent it to a publisher and it was accepted and published. Not only that. It was so popular that the publisher asked me to do a sequel, and the sequel did so well that they asked me to turn it into a series. The whole series was just reissued with bright new covers. My son is in his 40’s now, so that gives you an idea how long this series has been going strong. Click on the titles below to go to Amazon and read more about each book.
