I have written books for all ages and in multi-genres in the hope that I can encourage all ages to read daily for their good health and wellbeing. I know how important it is that children read daily and I will continue to do all I can to intrigue them with my books.
These two series were so much fun to write. They made me feel like a kid again experiencing all the different things that kids at that age experience – friendship is important, bullying can be harmful, family matters and kindness to others is how we learn to respect one another’s differences.
I had to think like a young boy when I wrote Davey & Derek and like a girl in Abby & Holly. It was more difficult thinking like a boy, of course, but I learned things about boys that way in how they might think differently about a situation than girls do. It was exhilarating to write about young people for a change but not as young as my other children’s books for PS-Grade 3. I gave the MG/PT more grownup situations to handle. I hope your kids will love these series as much as I did writing them.

Davey and Derek Donato are twins, but not identical, who love to play detective. They are always ready for adventure living in the sleepy little town of Lindon where nothing happens. The twins overhear about a sixth grader who lost her cell phone. The fifth grader twins kick into detective mode to solve their first case with the help of their friend, Mickey Catonni, aka cat. Things don’t seem to add up when a bully gets into the mix.

This is Book 1 of a series of Abby & Holly books. These two girls were first introduced in Book 5 of the Davey & Derek Junior Detectives Series.
The girls are first cousins on their mothers’ side. They moved to the quiet town of Lindon, New Hampshire and live in a grand old Victorian which is haunted.
The cousins are excited about attending the 6th grade dance. When their friend, Justine, is bullied, Abby and Holly, along with the help of a ghost and Davey & Derek, work together to formalize a plan to put a stop to the bullying.
All my children’s books including middle-grade, preteen and even young adults carry important life lessons. if you want your children to love reading introduce them to my two series – Davey & Derek Junior Detectives Series Books 1-6, Abby & Holly Series Books 1-6. These two series are enjoyed by both boys and girls and adults too!
Once kids begin these series they will be hooked and want to read more. There is plenty to intrigue them – magic, a witch, warlocks, a black cat, ghosts, time travel, a haunted house, anti-bullying and mysteries and surprises.
Reading is important not only to keep your children’s reading levels up all year long but also it can increase their vocabulary, spark their creativity, enhance their health and wellbeing and encourage them to become lovers of books. Let’s bring up a generation of readers and thinkers who will become successful and confident adults one day.
My goal in writing for MG/PT/YA is to encourage all ages to read daily to enhance their creativity, increase their vocabulary and enable them to live healthier and happier lives. Keep reading and I will keep writing. Thank you! Happy Reading!
MG/PT/YA books are available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
