Books with author Christa Roberts

If you can remember far enough back to those hazy, lazy, bountiful days when catching lightning bugs and picking apples were enough to enchant you for hours (or if you just wish you could remember that far back), then Jurebe is not only the book for you, but for your children, and their children, and their children’s children, and the entire neighborhood full of children, and so forth. Jurebe introduces us to a cast of characters including Squirrel, Woodpecker and Magic Grandma, with her potions and solutions to solve many a late summer afternoon problem. Jurebe takes us to a place where plants thrive, insects rule, and time slows down long enough for us to inspect and appreciate the little things in life, and the big life in things. Those lingering, lazy days where you could delight in your simple backyard are back, thanks to Jurebe and his friends. These stories are perhaps best read at bedtime, when dusk begins to take hold of the land and when imaginations stretch far and wide. Just as you’re about to wander off into dreamland, take Jurebe’s hand, and let his magical gift of joy and discovery be your guide.
