Book Characters
Georgia is a curious and lively girl, thrilled about Clarksdale’s Secret Santa but wary of the mysterious neighbor everyone fears. Though her imagination runs wild, her excitement for the holidays keeps her from dwelling on the town’s biggest mystery.

Mercy is a timid and lonely shelter dog who has lost hope of ever finding a home. With her wide-set eyes and a face others mock, she hides in the back of her cage, unwilling to face more disappointment. While other dogs eagerly seek attention, Mercy has accepted that she will always be overlooked. Despite her sadness, the shelter keeper believes in her, offering reassurance that the perfect family is out there—if only she dares to hope again.

Testimonial
Parents' words are the key
to happy kids

It’s not fun to be teased because you are “less” than others, and it’s not fun to wait for things to get better, either. But Rainbow doesn’t just wait; he learns. With courage, compassion and ingenuity, he reaches out to those whose predicaments are worse than his own. Then, with his eyes finally off himself, he discovers that the promise made to him has finally come true. What a lesson for children who are disappointed with their current situation, abilities, or achievements! Rainbow did what he could when he could, following his mom’s advice and using his time wisely until he “graduated.” Mary Dalton has presented a strategy for contentment and fulfillment for all of us.

Princess Anna Looks Deep Within by Mary Clark Dalton is part of the continuing story of The Prince of Deep Within. This is a great fantasy-adventure story for children.

Princess Anna seems to be the only one who knows who Prince Alex is. Follow Princess Anna as she sets out on a quest to find Prince Alex and prove that he isn’t just from a dream or is he?

I read this book and it was so beautiful. It’s about a cute but strong Caterpillar named Rainbow that has been waiting a long time to become a butterfly. One day he decides to stop being sad and impatient and begins to help others and find the fun in each moment. Definitely a great story and adventure for children to read but also a book every age can enjoy.
