The Secret of the Yellow Moon

Alice is 11 years old and only in the 6th grade when her family is inexplicably attacked on Halloween night. Alice and her brother Davis soon discover that an ancient family secret has thrust them into the middle of a dangerous struggle between good and evil.

Their adventures take them to strange lands where they encounter equally strange characters. They must learn who to trust and how to overcome the obstacles put in their way. But most importantly, Alice must learn to stand up for herself and fight for what is right. The story culminates in a wild race against time, and only The Secret of the Yellow Moon can save them from certain disaster.

The themes are age appropriate for young readers. The story encourages traditional values of honor, respect for others, and standing up for oneself. If you loved the fun and whimsy of the Harry Potter series, you will appreciate the blend of normal kids, magical creatures, funny talking dogs, and a classic hero's journey.

Will Alice develop the self-confidence to defeat the challenges she faces, or will she chicken out? Will she be able to get over her desire to be popular and learn to stand up for herself?
