In the delightfully humorous and heartfelt When Bluebell Found Her Bark, a sweet boy who adopts a puppy at a flea market must give her up when he becomes ill and cannot care for her. The boy's resourceful brother finds another family who has other pets and they fall in love with her immediately! They name the puppy Bluebell. Bluebell feels a little frightened and confused, wondering whether the other dogs at her new home were "adopted" like she is and whether she will ever "fit in". Slowly, Bluebell begins to adapt and shows that she has a silly side to her personality although, strangely, she's unable to bark. One day when Bluebell's antics get her into a bit of trouble, the result is a big surprise. Will Bluebell find her voice, and how will it happen? Katherina Underhill lives in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, where she is a realtor. She is inspired by nature and her great love for animals and children. Her rewarding experience as a foster parent is a motivating source behind When Bluebell Found Her Bark. Ms. Underhill is currently working on a number of books, including Mabel in the Boutique, about a young French Bulldog who goes to work in a boutique with her owner Katie, and the next book in the Bluebell series, which begins with Bluebell's first Halloween.

Turquoise Dolphins: A Story for School Day RebelsScoot stared ahead, watching the sea. At the same time, he reflected on all the things he saw in and around the reef. The dog, sitting with its head under his chin, was a perfect companion. "Brownie", Scoot thought, would be a good name for such a dog. They had shared a lovely day but, to make it perfect, he wanted to watch turquoise dolphins play. He switched the motor off and let the boat slow down.A shining movement caught his attention, and there they were! Three sleek and beautiful dolphins came leaping alongside the little craft. Perfectly matching one another's great, curving jumps, glistening with water, they were vigorous and wonderful.On the brightest of late summer days, a fourteen-year-old boy named Scoot hops out of bed with a very different plan from his school's timetable. Full of energy, he seeks freedom for one brilliant day, and in a little boat of his own, Scoot sets sail.His charming mother and kind stepdad understand Scoot's need for freedom, but when tutors recommend a course of higher education, they wonder if they can encourage Scoot to accept the opportunity.An exciting stranger joins Scoot's circle of friends. He matches Scoot's daring to surf the big waves. Challenges arise to make Scoot resourceful, and as he learns more about himself and the importance of courage, there's a temptation to escape the path that seems mapped out for him.This fresh and colourful tale will give readers pause for reflection on the joys of the natural world, comparing it with the confines and convention of the school room.(About the Author)Lisette Skeet grew up in the village of Great Horkesley, near Colchester in Essex.
