That is, until he meets a young boy on the property who looks eerily similar to a boy in one of the antiquated family photos that line the walls of the inn. As his friendship with the boy deepens, Josh suddenly finds himself thrust back to the year 1862 and into the heart of the Civil War. Trapped in the past, Josh has no choice but to become involved. Filled with intrigue, hope, despair and the everlasting bonds of love and friendship, The Drummer’s Call captures the bravery of a young boy as he fights to survive the Civil War and return to his family.

The Adventures of "A Squirrel Named Peanut" is a photo book about the cutest little squirrel whose name is Peanut. The photographs–taken by the author herself–are excellent and add so much detail to this book that the prose comes to life because of them.Peanut narrates this charming story, which is broken into eleven little adventures. Peanut is a delight…from his scratching at the screen for food to eating out of the author’s hand to eating a potted avocado plant…he’s as irresistible to the reader as he is to his benefactor!
