"Will you please come help us, Princess Camp, along with your brave knights?"
Strangers have come from far away to beg for help from Princess Camp and her friends!
A distant area of Arcadia has become engulfed in conflict: the legendary Leafcutter Legions have gone on a rampage! But why? The ants of a leafy ant garden castle have no idea. They only know they need help, and there's only one ant famous enough, brave enough, and strong enough to save the day... except Princess Camp knows that's overblown legend, not at all close to the truth. But still, Princess Camp, Cid the jumping spider, Peter Pillbug, and even their honeybee friends find themselves working together to stop the ant wars, save the ants, and save the plants. Science and fiction combine into a whirlwind tour of the incredible relationships between clever ants and clever plants.
Bailey the dog wants bacon. Except Bailey can't have bacon. Or pork, or beef, or chicken. But then, her human can't have milk, peanuts, or eggs, either. What is a dog and her boy supposed to do? Bailey and boy have an argument about what food they can and can't have. A humorous little children's book that lightly touches upon envy, unfairness, trade-offs, and compromise, and what's really important. Especially relevant to kids with food allergies. NOTE: This is a short little picture book, just over 20 pages, with black and white illustrations.
Both Kindle and softcover editions are available.
