The Bottle Tree
Living on the farmlands of Assumption Parish in southern Louisiana, two ten-year-old girls, Cassie and Brooke, find themselves in the middle of a mystery. The girls are surrounded by Cajan superstitions that cloud the minds of the local law enforcers in the search for Lionel "Coon" Landy, wanted for murder and assault. Sheriff Dean and Deputy Tower team up with Jim Nash, the Parish attorney, in order to figure out the farmhouse break-ins and curious clues left behind.
Cassie is pulled into the mystery, as her friend, Brooke, is knocked unconscious from a near-miss shotgun blast near the Lower Grand at Grassy Lake. Cassie has to cope with the death of her grandfather from Alzheimer's disease and the almost fatal loss of her grandmother at the hands of the break-in bandit. Unknowingly, Cassie holds the key to the mystery as she attempts to open the secret of The Bottle Tree.

The Adventures of J.G. and Echo, The Land of all Creatures and The Swamp Creature
The Adventures of J.G. and Echo is a fanciful story of two young squirrels and their quest to find "The Land of all Creatures" and the "Swamp Creature." Their first adventure takes them to the brink of danger as they cross paths with Russ, the forest bobcat, and Scratch, the sewer rat king.
In their first adventure, J.G. and Echo have their first encounter with a boy-child, get tossed around in a monkey cage, and have a battle with an elephant.
In their second adventure, "The Swamp Creature," the two young squirrels find themselves in a terrifying life-and-death situation with SSST, the swamp snake, and Gator, the swamp creature.
Meet Papa Joe, J.G.'s grandfather; Whisker, Echo's rat cousin; Frankie, the roly-poly raccoon; Page, J.G.'s first girlfriend; and Hoppy, the swamp frog, as these memorable characters fill the pages with adventure, suspense, and great fun.
