My most recent middle grade novel is now live on Amazon. Allison and the Magic Carpet Crew takes the reader on fun adventures along with a varied cast of characters. Allison proves that a girl can carry the Pony Express mail through in spite of hazards and skeptical old men. Stand up to the prejudices of an ancient Chinese emperor? You bet!
