Jennie Manning writes: I read your novel Jane in Spring. I enjoyed it very much. I liked the book because the going-back-in-time theme was awesome, and the history was interesting too. I enjoyed the characters also. I loved how Jane was witty and stubborn, and how she was trying hard to be friends with the nervous Poppy. The part about the horses was great and accurate.

The story of a young girl's quest to save the Parsifal family from the evil Queen Ida. This very traditional tale is set in England will appeal to young readers aged 8-12 and also to grownups who grew up in the 1950's or wished they did. According to Maryam Montegue, "The great thing about Jane in Winter is that it doesn't dumb down the writing for children. Instead it assumes that children are smart, curious creatures who deserve literary prose. That said, there is no skimping on the fantasy element that makes the story so appealing to young readers. What child is not mesmerized by a mystery complete with an evil queen?"

Set in England and Germany between 1936 and the present A FORTUNATE CHILD tells the story of the two mothers of the same child. Based on a true story, the novel explores adoption from three viewpoints --the 'fortunate child' of the title, the birth mother and the adoptive one. Karen Cole said: " it's a MUST read. I felt like I was transported back in time. It may be the first time I felt the true atmosphere of the WW2 era and what it may have felt like to live at that time. The women in the story are amazing, showing great strength during very trying times." >"Deliciously written story of two women and the child who linked them forever. An eloquent and original narrative weaving together history, art, literature, and human nature." Isabel Augusto.
