Book Cover & Preview Text
Somewhere unspoken the moon casts a glow ...
Upon an eerily secretive place called Meadow Grove.
Anxious eyes watch through windowpanes as moon rays dance upon the ground ...
For this is the time the children savor - the only safe time to prowl around.
Chloe and Emma know this place well because it is a place that they do dwell.
They are five years old and twins to boot, but even certain secrets they won't tell.
Except that foolish it would be not to follow the laws for which the children are bound ...
Because at the strike of midnight in Meadow Grove, there had better be nary a sound.

About the Book
Chloe and Emma are five-year-old twin sisters who live in Meadow Grove. Their household is dysfunctional and unsafe, filled with sadness and fear. At night, they escape to a magical land alive with creatures both great and small. Mr. Jingles tries to find them, but the girls remain hidden with the animal friends who give them the courage to make it through difficult times.
Due to their strength and fearlessness, Chloe and Emma find a way to endure and persevere, despite dire circumstance. Deep within themselves, they also discover the need to protect the vulnerability in others.
The Tale of Meadow Grove is a poetic cautionary tale but also one of empowerment, bravery, and survival in response to adversity. It embraces the power of a child’s imagination and the ability to overcome great odds. It is the tiny voices that speak the loudest … and have the greatest need to be heard.
