Red Bluff, California Author Visit
I would like to thank the Tehama County Department of Education for my wonderful author visit on July 1st & 2nd. Thank you for the warm welcome (over 100•F). I was able to visit four SERRF sites and speak to hundreds of kids. I hope they enjoyed it half as much as I did!
Max & Ed:
A Gold Rush Story
Max and Ed are in a race to be the first to reach the Nome gold fields in a new gold rush. Follow them as they travel over 900 miles down the frozen Yukon River in the middle of winter.
Did I mention that Max is a bicycle?
It's a journey that they can only do together.
Pedro's Pan
Pan is not just any kind of a pan, he is a gold pan. But after numerous failures of finding gold, Pan begins to doubt that he is good at his job and worries about letting down his friend Pedro. No matter how hard he tries, Pan can't seem to find the gold.
Be a part of the sometimes humorous adventures of Pedro and Pan as they search for gold and purpose in the wilderness of Alaska.
