Dragon & Dinosaur Chronicles

An epic series where adventure, time travel, and imagination come together.

Star Life Keepers

Welcome to the Belacamber parallel universe where knights and archers team up with elves and shapeshifting dragons to defeat dinosaur invaders.

In the Dragon & Dinosaur Chronicles series, you can follow Jason, Amanda, Elisa—and their friends in the Evergreen Nation and Dragonora—while they fulfill their mission as second-generation Star Life Keepers.

Jason, Amanda, and Elisa discover their grandfather’s secret Star Globe and go back in time to prevent family tragedies from happening. Jason also hopes to get his lost hearing restored.

As they travel through West Bukania, Jason, Amanda, and Elisa must collaborate with young elves and dragons to overcome dinosaurs and humanized creatures.

Star Life Keepers will soon be commercially available via Amazon and other retail outlets.

We are currently working on short stories, e.g., Dragons & Betrayals, and a sequel (Orion Fire Storm).

Jason and Amanda received ancient astronomy rings from their father before he died in a Space Force mission. When the kids place those rings side by side, they activate the Star Globe and enable them to travel with Elisa through a portal in Orion’s belt.

 

Jason, Amanda, and Elisa land in the medieval country of Bukania where they find out they are members of the royal family. Queen Dhyanna is dying: Jason, Amanda, and Elisa must travel to West Bukania and retrieve the Carmanixia plant to save her life.

Stories for
Elementary School Readers

The Global Fairies
Global Fairy Academy Series

My granddaughter, Mia Pei Ni Johnson, and I are finishing The Global Fairies, our illustrated short novel for children in fourth through sixth grade who love adventure stories. We hope to make this first book in our Global Fairy Academy series available in 2024.

Girls and boys from all over the world travel to the Global Fairy Academy to learn how to become Guardian Fairies. They train at the secret Fairy Island—a magical location in the Pacific Ocean—to receive their fairy wings and sword-wands. They also learn how to use Invisie Dust, which makes their wings disappear so they can go unnoticed among humans as they stop the troublemaking Storm Fairies.
 

Ride the Sky
Flying Horse Island Series

In the Atlantic Ocean, off the coast of North Carolina, there’s another secret island—except this one has special horses that train to get their flying wings. The original wild horses on Flying Horse Island, however, don’t have wings and cause problems for the visiting horses.

Readers of chapter books will learn about Ride the Sky Ranch; horses from around the world; and how to save rare horse breeds.
