Books with author Laura Kelly

Laurene Kelly’s first young adult novel introduces us to fourteen-year-old Julie, who is struggling with a terrible home life, but could never imagine the horror that is about to destroy her family forever. She dreams of a new life, away from her abusive father, but when her mother doesn’t arrive to meet Julie and her brother Toby after school as planned, her hopes are shattered. She is told there was an accident, but something more is wrong...

This colorful children's book takes you through a day in the life of 'PICASSO' a scarlet macaw. Page by page he will introduce you to all his fun loving feathered friends starting with their name, what kind of bird they are and ending with an interesting little fact. This is a fun and informative picture book to read with your children and they will particularly enjoy all the brightly colored illustrations of birds. As with all my children's books, a personal drawing page is included in the back "to bring out the artist in your little ones".
