Woohoo! Thank you for everyone's encouraging words that supported me as Sparkle Power launched into the world. A huge thanks for your Amazon orders that tremendously helped Sparkle Power earn the #1 spot in several of Amazon's Best Seller categories. The book would not have earned this distinction without your help. Please let me know what you think of the story once your book arrives and you have a chance to read it. I hope it will be helpful to parents and children as they confront name-calling by peers. Enjoy reading about Annie and her siblings' life experiences once again.

BOOK 2 OF THE SERIES
Grandma's Mystery Surprise Box
Annie and her brother and sisters participate in their next adventure, this time with Grandma. Annie’s Grandma loves surprises, especially when they involve her grandchildren - Annie, Mary, Frankie, and Susie. Grandma created something she calls, "Grandma's Mystery Surprise Box", and filled it with little things that she says tell an important family story. The things inside - tiny plastic farm animals, a horn, a magnet of the state of Kansas, an old photo of two farmers - what do they mean? Grandma is a “long distance” grandma, meaning, she lives in another state. Since staying in touch with us is important to her, she decided to Facetime us with clues for the Mystery Surprise Box. What family story are they telling? Once we figure out the first set of clues, Grandma says there will be more to solve. Grandma always has the best surprises! I hope you will read this delightful book once it's published this summer and discover the clues' meaning and their role in this unique story that has been passed from one generation to another in our family.
