about things in, around, and beyond the Piney Woods
The Forest Chronicles, Book 1
When Jack tells his best friend Pippa that something strange is drifting out of the trees in his backyard, she thinks he is joking. But after she sees the star beings herself, she and Jack are soon racing time to prevent a catastrophe that threatens trees--and life--on Earth.
The pair have no idea that they are watched with great interest by the forest and by the dryad, Finnbuckle, who lives in a great oak tree behind his house. Finnbuckle has little use for humans, who don't believe in dryads, but she soon discovers her fate and that of her beloved trees depend on humanity. Can Jack and Pippa complete their mission and save the forest?
The Forest Chronicles, Book 2
When Jack's little sister Rose disappears, he and Pippa discover the only way to get Rose back is a dangerous trip through the pines to a distant planet, the strange and wonderful Oodran. If they gain the skills needed to navigate the tree network, then maybe they can get back to Earth. But returning to Earth poses a whole new set of challenges. And the solutions, as usual, rest in the trees and the tree spirits who love them.
The Forest Chronicles, Book 3
In this, the final installment of the Forest Chronicles, the deepest secret that pine trees have kept for millennia is uncovered along with the true reason that Jack was chosen by the Star Visitors. This enchanting tale, written by a dryad, ends with hope for all humans, for the trees, and for all those who love them.
