Book Description
One wish can change everything. This year when Jessica Martinson-Canton blows out eleven candles on her homemade vegan cake, she makes the same wish she’s made for as many birthdays as she can remember: she wants a mother. Jessica’s father Phil has worked his entire life to create a more stable childhood for his daughter than he had with his unwed teenaged mother. When his wife left him and their newborn daughter in their most vulnerable hour, Phil pledged to give his baby everything. His parents have reunited and are working hard to create a supportive extended family, but rainbow pancakes and princess murals can’t heal the dark void left in Phil’s heart which he won’t even admit is there. Mallory O’Connell leaves her dream job in a big city to return home to help her fiercely independent mother recover from tragedy. After forming a unique bond with Jessica—and a friendship with Jessica’s hot father—Mallory finds that in coming back to Stonehill she might just have found a way to make all of her dreams come true. But as their families push Phil and Mallory together, old insecurities and Phil’s worst fears threaten to break up the happy trio and catch Jessica in the emotional crossfire.

Book Description
A mother and her child, lost and then found again after four decades: this extraordinary story of love, loss, and reunion is told in alternating voices by the two women, each relating her own powerful experience. For the mother, its the tale of an unhappy marriage followed by betrayal, a pregnancy of uncertain paternity, and the heartrending decision to give up her newborn. The daughters search begins 40 years later, as she slowly, painstakingly, stitches together her story. These intertwined tales give us two unforgettable points of view of a remarkable journey-and of the multiple meanings of motherhood.

While on holiday in France, she encounters a strange band of children, mysterious and ragged, who seem to urgently want HER help. Who are they? And who is Jean-Luc, their leader? As she learns more, Jessica realises that the game they're playing isn't a game, that Jean-Luc is a prisoner, and the children aren't children but nightmares, guarding a priceless treasure.

Book Description
There are eight fabulous stories in this collection of Jessica’s Journeys. These stories are about a girl named Jessica and the lessons she has learned in life. Jessica deals with ostracism, disability, death, disobedience, and loneliness. Jessica keeps a journal in which she logs the lessons that she learns from each experience. This book collection provides reading strategies that will help improve reading, vocabulary skills, lessons, and activities that meet elementary English Standard E4a (English language rules), and character development lessons and themes that meet English Standards E2b (reading response), E2c (narrative account), & E3b (listening, viewing, speaking). This book also has integrated themes, which include science, social studies, writing, and art. Jessica’s Journeys does not contain any illustrations of Jessica because the author wants the children and adults who will read Jessica’s Journeys to create their own image of Jessica. I hope you have as much fun reading them as I had writing them. Now, let the journey begin!
