Growing Toward the Sun - a middle grade novel
Ten-year-old Celeste sees everyone as a possible criminal. After she deserts her little sisters to chase a suspect, her parents make rules.
If her giant imagination causes more trouble she’ll lose phone privileges, mystery books, and free time. If she can learn responsibility, they’ll buy the binoculars she needs for sleuthing.
Celeste vows to win the prize. Then a thief targets their Mennonite community and her peace-loving church people do nothing to stop it. Celeste fears Grandma or her best friend Lexi could be next.
But is going after the thief a responsible thing to do? Can Celeste solve the mystery and win the binoculars?
Full Moon, Half a Heart - a middle grade novel
Sixth grade is almost over. Celeste loves Kansas—-her grandparents, her trailer house on the edge of town, almost everything—-but Dad is moving them north to Wisconsin. To a stinky dairy farm, at that.
Far from Sunflower State Mennonite School and her friend Lexi, Celeste struggles to adjust to a place where school feels like prison, winter lasts forever, and her only pal is a Siamese cat. Worst of all is the barn full of scary cows to feed.
Can Celeste find something likable about this place? Maybe Sally or Rita, her new classmates? Or the calf she saves? (Definitely not Ronnie, of course!)
With so many tough changes, Celeste must grow and be strong, no matter how it hurts.
