Rated Five Stars by Readers Favorite Website!

The sleepy town of Brookhavens may look ordinary but it’s hiding a HUGE secret. It’s the gateway to a world full of magic, mermaids, and unicorns. If only you know where to look…

11-year-old Alice longs for the popular girls at school to stop teasing her. Luckily, her older brother Davis is there to make her laugh and remind her how great she is—not that Alice is ready to believe him.

Everything changes one eventful Halloween night when evil appears out of the shadows, attacks their family, and kidnaps their mom. An ancient family secret is discovered and threatens to bring darkness and despair to those they love.

Aided by a fantastic cast of mythical creatures, including their lovable Staffie Todd, powerful unicorns, and a magical mermaid friend named Majesty—Alice and Davis begin their hero’s quest to save their family from the evil Dark Lord Seth and his crew of cunning shapeshifters.

In a new land with magic at its core, not everything and everyone is as it seems. With deception lurking at each corner, the pair must quickly learn who to trust and how to overcome the obstacles put in their way. But, most importantly, Alice has to learn to stand up for herself and fight for what’s right.

The Secret of the Yellow Moon is a whimsical and action-packed children’s fantasy novel that will immerse you into an epic struggle of good vs evil, where two children are thrust into a desperate race against time… and only the secret of the Yellow Moon can save them.

Can they unlock their family’s secret and save their mom in time?

If you love whimsical fairy tales or folklore, then step into a realm of enchanted worlds and magical creatures. This imaginative story has a solid moral lesson, a relatable, kind-hearted heroine, and a funny, determined hero. There’s also a lovable, talking Staffordshire bull terrier called Todd, who along with his cousins, provide comic relief, and steal the show. No fantasy story is complete without them.

This story begins as historical fiction set in the 1700s. British explorers seeking a better life travel on wooden boats to Savannah Georgia to colonize the new world. Back in the present day, the story follows the Jones family as they explore ancient civilizations and find themselves in a heroic battle against the forces of evil. Young readers will discover that within the pages of this book, unicorns, and mermaids are far from fiction and hold the secrets to save the world.

"When we believed in mermaids, talking dogs, and elemental magic, and the story of an insecure 6th grader on a magical adventure, who had the courage to face up to a bully in her 6th grade class, that made this coming of age story a lot of fun to read." Editorial Review
