This juvenile fiction story is based in Frolicville, Michigan where most families live on farms or in homes with lots of land. And just about every kid has a horse, or at least knows how to ride. Many of these kids, like Jordan and Jeremy Chambers and Chip and Molly Easton, are members of the Frolic Riders Club where they do all sorts of fun things with their horses. But Jordan and Jeremy and Chip and Molly also love a good adventure, and if they don't find one, one seems to find them. Read along with these four junior detectives and follow the trail of clues that leads them to discover and solve the Skeleton Creek Caper, the first of many adventures and mysteries that can only occur in horse country.

Moving from one city to another as a freshmen student attending a new high school has its qualms. However, the situation becomes even more difficult and intense when the new student has a secret that she tries to hide from her classmates. 13-year-old Ella Rose from Savannah Georgia appears to be normal at one glance, until she speaks or tries to communicate. Unlike everyone else at Manchester High School in Washington DC, Ella Rose Abbot is different, and it will take more than the standard school uniform to make her feel that she fits in and belongs with the rest of the students, despite her secret. However, as Ella finds out, some situations are not easily hidden, turning one small bad situation into a mountain of chaotic problems as you try to hide the obvious. Broken Voices is an encouraging story that takes you inside a different world, the world of the handicapped and people with broken voices and impaired hearing. Editorial Review: "Ella Rose Abbot begins her first day of high school full of self-doubt and then triumphs over the day. Ella, a deaf girl, signs, writes, and speaks with "a broken voice," as it turns out, very beautifully. "Broken Voices" is a story that will lift you up and make you feel better about the world." --Kris Harpster
