HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE! This is a special way to celebrate the New Year with an award!
I am thrilled to announce that Book 1 of my new series for Middle-graders/PT/YA, Abby & Holly, School Dance, just received a Pinnacle Book Achievement Award in the Young Adult Category! I can’t say how excited I am, well maybe I can! LOL! Thank you, Pinnacle!
BEST BOOK IN YOUNG ADULT CATEGORY
ABBY & HOLLY SCHOOL DANCE
Blurb:
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.
This is a fun and entertaining book for both boys and girls. It encourages and fosters good values and behavior in young adults. This series, as well as Davey & Derek Series, is a good clean read that even parents will enjoy.
