What are Wee People? You have got to check this out!
In “Gerald and the Wee People”, Gerald
and his best friend, Vernon
discover a mysterious spot in the woods where Gerald visualizes a miniature village
complete with wee inhabitants. He enjoys going back to that spot and watching
the day to day activities until trouble starts in the village and he tries to
convince Vernon
that the "visions" are real and the wee people need help.
While trying to prove that the
whole thing is just Gerald's wild imagination, the boys literally fall into the
new world and get caught up in a war. The boys come up with ways to keep
the invading force from entering the village but another solution has to be
found in order to put an end to the conflict.
Along with a few companions from
the village, Gerald and Vernon
embark on a quest to face down the deranged forest god who instigated the
mayhem. The dangerous path is laid out by an ancient prophecy, but not
everything goes as planned. http://viewbook.at/weepeople

The adventure continues in the
second book in the Wee People series, “House on Bo-Kay Lane .”
Gerald and Vernon believe their time with the wee people
came to an end after they returned to their home world but begin to wonder when
strange things started to happen at an abandoned house in their neighborhood.
Ghostly images of familiar faces from the wee people village are seen in the
windows, echoes of voices from the past haunt the boys’ dreams and an
undeniable curiosity draws Gerald and Vernon
to investigate the mysterious haunted house. What they find takes them back to
the world of the wee people and a new adventure begins.
In “House on Bo-Kay Lane ”, a mirror is found in a
forgotten room in the far-seers’ training center. Sheela, a far-seer master and
Alyson, an apprentice firestarter are unwillingly drawn into the depths of the
mirror and wind up in the abandoned house on Bo-Kay Lane . Sheela uses her telepathic
skills to enlist the aid of Gerald, Vernon
and Gerald’s father, Andrew to help find the way back to the world of the wee
people.
That problem resolved, they try to
unravel the secrets of the mirror and find that it is a portal between their
two worlds, as well as to a time in the future and possibly even to a parallel
universe. They also discover that someone is trapped inside the mirror and the
decision has to be made as to whether or not to help the trapped soul escape
the confines of the portal.
Meanwhile, the wee people discover
the origins of their world. That knowledge is not well accepted and leads to
discord between them and the outworlders, Gerald, Andrew and Vernon . An uneasy truce paves the way to an
understanding and acceptance of the unwelcome facts and eventually to a solution
of how to deal with the man in the mirror. http://viewbook.at/bokaylane

Her love of reading began at an early age and blossomed over time to include
many different genres, her favorite now being fantasy.
