I want to wish all you moms a Happy Mother’s Day!
There’s also a book for kids that celebrates an attentive and resourceful mom. It’s actually the sequel to Rose Wolves, a graphic novel I reviewed on Jennifer Hallmark’s blog.
In Rose Wolves Book Two: Out of the Blue, it shows the main character going on a picnic with her mom. She introduces her mom to her old friend: a Rose Wolf, or a wolf that lives part of its life as a rose in a bush.
To all of you who bought Of Dangers and Dreams, which has my dire wolf story, thank you so, so much.
There are more Fairy Tale Frenzy books, too, all published by Beyond the Bookery. Both contemporary and fantasy retellings are included. Take a look at all these covers.
I wrote a book review on a collection of short stories by Emmarayn Redding, called The Madman of Elkriahl and Other Fairy Tales. When you read this collection, you will be immersed in the nostalgia that comes with reading a classic fairy tale.
This volume is friendly for both the young and young-at-heart. Click on the link below for the full review.
If you haven’t heard yet, I wrote a review on a fairy tale story, and it’s complementary with my “Friend of the Dire Wolf” novella. It’s the Caldecott Medal winner Lon Po Po: A Red-Riding Hood Story from China, and you can find it on Jennifer Hallmark’s blog.
There’s also a summer bash coming! Beyond the Bookery can’t wait to invite you to join their party on Facebook. It’s their Summer Book Bash, where there’ll be giveaways for you to join.
My publisher, Beyond the Bookery, has more books on the way! They will have a series that fits this description: A Twist of Tales is a Christian nonmagical fantasy series of genderbent retellings. Be swept away in captivating tales of adventure, sweet romance, faith, and animal companions.
Another book that’ll be released this year is Michelle Emmanuelli’s Of Might and Mettle: A Brave Tin Soldier Retelling. If you love a story with a Caribbean flair and a wolf puppy, then check it out.

Today is the official release of Of Dangers and Dreams, containing my Red Riding Hood story!
My story is novella-sized, complete with its own chapters. It even includes a theme verse, and as you read, you’ll know why.
“He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man. The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.” – Psalm 147:10-11, KJV
Here’s a big bonus:
Do you love playlists for books? I created one right here, and each song goes with each chapter. Enjoy!
I have to mention Silvera the dire wolf again. Did I say she also has magic powers? Due to drinking the alchemist’s potion, she can fly, create constellations, and make fire.
There are other animals with magic powers, but one is gifted by Elohim, the great Creator god, while the other was changed by alchemist chemistry. You have to read the story to find out which one.
They’re Chidike the Medicine Primate and Oma the Owl, both talking animals and each with their own special feats.
