Hawaii's famous miniature "Mouse House," built by Hawaii's beloved fine artist, Martha Greenwell, took over 8 years to finish! For 20 years, at Christmas time, it was on display for the Queen's Hospital. It now lives at the Isaacs Art Center at Hawaii Preparatory Academy on The Big Island of Hawaii. The whimsical village features handmade wooden mouse characters in tiny settings that incorporate everything from an antique horseshoe barrel, sewing machine drawer and medicine tin to a horseshoe nail box, kerosene lantern and wooden Japanese bucket. All of the historic artifacts came from the attic and tool shed belonging to her in-laws of Palani Ranch. Using a jeweler's saw to craft miniature mice made of bass wood, Greenwell created, painted, collected and assembled a Christmas Village where mice are cooking, sewing, wreath making and candy making--all wrapped up in imaginative vignettes that combine her passion for collecting miniature furniture along with her expertise as a Christmas ornament maker.Author, Suzy McGregor, so loved getting to know the real Mouse House that she created this delightful Christmas Story that awakens the spirit in us to rejoice in the magic of Christmas. Tommy Mouse bring a dream into reality with the help of his friends!

The real-fantasy story of Moon Leopard is very real when it comes to the project “A Sonic Bloom Garden.” If this is a new term to you as a young person, a parent or a teacher, read this book for sure! Sonic Bloom is the now and future. It is very important to our good health and for the world to be able to provide nutritious fruits and vegetables. In 1974, Jeanne Dixon (who was one of the world’s greatest psychic predictors and a friend of Edgar Cayce's, was the person who called President Kennedy and warned him not to go to Dallas. Instead, he doubled his security). Author-Illustrator of Moon Leopard, Suzy was at the Phoenix Sports Arena in 1974 when Dixon predicted the invention of a “Little Black Box” which would revolutionize food production throughout the world. Dixon said, “Today in 1974, we point missiles at each other as nations of military power in the world. Shortly after the turn of the century, food and water will be what determines a nation’s power!” She continued, “On one fourth of the land we use today in America, we will be able to produce enough abundant, healthy, organic crops to feed the whole world with this Little Black Box! It is my prayer that America will control this Little Black Box so I want all of you to look for it and support who ever has invented it.” Could Sonic Bloom and the “Little Black Box” be what Dixon had prophesied? Suzy thinks so! And so she created this magical book!
