Author's Note:

"Jillian's Magical Adventures" follows the escapades of nine year old Josephine Lockhart, her irrepressible younger sister Jillian, and their little dog Merlin. The sisters live with their father and mother in a 100 year old Victorian home on the edge of a dark forest that runs along a steep bluff overlooking the sea. Accompanied by Huckleberry, the irascible boy next door, often with magical Merlin in tow, the girls find themselves falling into one adventure after another in which they confront leprechauns, mermaids, gargoyles, werewolves, sea serpents and other fantastical creatures.

You and your children are invited to join the Lockhart sisters, Huckleberry and Merlin on their journeys through the Mysterious Forest, to the desolate shore, across the coastal highway to Lost Lake and other distant points as they confront, and using the wits and ingenuity found in all young children, overcome the fantastic. And, solve a seemingly unsolvable mystery along the way.

Each "Jillian's Magical Adventures" is presented as a serialized chapter book available on Amazon.com in both Paperback and Kindle edition formats. The "Jillian's Magical Adventures" Blog (where you are at this very moment) is a forum for comments and a peek at the next chapter book in the series.

The mysteries were created for pre and near-Harry Potter aged readers and advocate for high quality children's content defined by equally strong male and female role models. I sincerely hope you enjoy the journey. And so it begins...
