About the Books

Harold Won't Fly!: An Awakening Tale

Why won't Harold fly? Harold is a bird who spends his day wishing that he could fly, but is too afraid to try. When fate intervenes and Harold's wish comes true, he sees that the real wish that was granted had very little to do with flying at all. "Harold Won't Fly!" is a gentle, whimsical story of awakening that both children and parents will enjoy together, especially at bedtime.

Mozzarella Cheese, Please!

Mozzarella Cheese, Please! offers up a bird’s eye view of Leonard, the only bird in town who preferred mozzarella cheese rather than worms. A laugh out loud silly tale with a heart worm twist at the end, it will remind us all, that our differences can bring us together and we are all birds of a feather.
