In this book Jimmy and his family travel to Japan to retrieve a special book. While staying at a hotel in Japan where everyone is currently sleeping Jimmy is woken by a deafening crash and his mother's piercing scream! I would spoil it for you, but I won’t.

By PM ![]() One sunny afternoon a fourteen year old boy named Jimmy goes into the woods to climb his favorite tree, and from that point on his life will never be the same. While climbing the tree he named “Ole Bessy” he witnesses the mayor, of all people, strangling an innocent woman! A blackness like you have never seen before envelopes the poor women, but when the blackness clears she is nowhere to be seen! Jimmy does something we all do from time to time, something you would not particularly want to do at a time like this, he sneezes. Thus it gives him away and Borbus Duck (the mayor, also wife of Bobette, aren’t those terrible names together, Borbus and Bobette) starts to climb the tree. Jimmy does the only thing he could possibly think of at the moment, he jumps! What will happen to Jimmy and Borbus? Read to find out....

It’s about a little mouse, (Ralph), who wants to go out and explore the world. Well, that’s kind of hard when you have an overly protective mother, and live in a hotel that is supposed to have no mice! Although, soon Ralph’s dream will come true when a boy comes to stay at the hotel for the weekend. This boy brought a wonderful, shiny, and red motorcycle along with him! WOW! Ralph has a passion for motorcycles. Ralph will do anything to get that in his hands on this precious piece of equipment! What will Ralph experience on his new found motorcycle, is it just how he imagined? Enjoy! By PM ![]() This beloved sequel to “Trouble in Palmyra” is very fun and exciting! Tom and Becky find themselves traveling back in time…..again. They experience many exciting and both hard things.They even find themselves meeting Oliver Cowdery, only one of the very important people to witness the Book of Mormon!

By PM ![]() This book is about a boy and his sister (Tom and Becky). They are sent to stay with their crazy about church history, Uncle Daniel, because Tom had been teasing Becky with his friends about Becky’s bad leg. Becky was being sent there, along with Tom (as his punishment). Uncle Daniel had nothing fun to do at his house, and even worse, he claimed to have built a time machine. “Yeah right!”, Becky and Tom thought. What they didn’t know was that they soon would stand corrected. Where will they go and what will they do when they get there? I hope that you choose to read this wonderful book! By PM |
