TWO stories brimming with mystery, friendship, and joy – imagine twice the love and twice the fun.
Author M J Gibbs, (Marg Gibbs) has released two engaging illustrated, junior fiction books with boys as the main characters. Both are realistic adventures with heartfelt themes.
The Waiting Room of Weathervane Vet is set on Uncle Jack’s Pigeon Farm and the strange happenings in a vet’s waiting room with an array of animals.
The main character is Lenny Watts a ten year old, who is orphaned and finds his way through life with the healing power of animals.
Jesse Wins Through uses the home and school setting for Jesse Whitford with a cute Jack Russell to train.
Lenny loves his rescue animals; Jesse loves his new furry friend, Pixie.
Both need to deal with a bully and grow in self-confidence.
Both have something that disappears!
These two new books are ideal for children ages 7+. And best read independently if you adore animals.
Marg said: “it’s fun writing scenes about animals, a fun colour run, and potion making.”
In Jesse Wins Through, she has Jesse learning to box, play baseball and discover the qualities of military dogs.
Sometimes two can make good friends, and what better way to share adventures?
