Granola Brea Book Series

Fiction for kids 10-14 who enjoy a few laughts while learning how to make healthy choices.

Brea isn’t your average 12-year-old girl. Nope! She’s a HEALTH-NUT (all caps).

Wholesome food is her thing… she studies and she knows a lot.

What Brea doesn’t know, is how to keep her big mouth shut.

She better figure it out…and soon…or Brea might find herself–on stage–at her brother’s high-school…gulp…as the keynote speaker!

In Confessions of a Health-nut… Granola Brea follows her destiny…

But challenging a crowd of unruly, junk-food obsessed teenagers — might mean an urgent call for the police!

In Spotlight on a Health-nut… Granola Brea’s destiny seems to be following her…

What do acorns, sleepover, school assembly, and a farmer’s market have to do with making healthy food choices?

Get ready to find out!

Move over doctors and scientists – it’s time for a kid to step up to explain what’s what!

Buttercup Girls Mystery Stories

Three friends solve humourous tales of intrigue in fictional old west setting

Sophie, Bessie, and Nell are Daisyville’s youngest detectives. Thanks to their investigative know-how, the local Sheriff can put his feet up and enjoy his coffee.

And that’s a good thing, because this dusty old town has more than its share of hysterics and drama.

FYI… Girl detectives, in the late 1800s, had to be determined, ambitious, and fearless. A good sense of humour didn’t hurt either… ha-ha!

Sophie, and her friends, check all the boxes… they’re observant, have gut instinct, are super energetic, and possess topnotch communication skills.

But get this… In those days…girl didn’t have apps, social media, websites, or … phones?

Gulp!
