NEWS & EVENTS

The Bill Little Adventures is out with two adventures, 2nd editions, and there are two more to come, hopefully in 2022.  I am redoing a children's verse collection with new color illustrations and hope to have that out in a few months, by the end of 2021. Follow me on my Facebook page, Children's Author Jan Lister Caldwell.

Time-Travel Runway 

 

Ten-year-old Bill has come to a point in his young life where he has all he can take; from moving from his home, dealing with neighborhood bullies, and dealing with his dad working what seems to be all the time. When things come to a head one day, he sees a chance to escape all the frustrations and unhappiness in his life and come back a triumphant hero with new knowledge of his favorite subject, dinosaurs. But things don’t work out as he had thought. His dad had tried to teach him his own skills as an outdoorsman and hunter. Bill thought it was all useless information and lately resented any time spent together that seemed like work. He didn’t want to be a clone of his dad. He was his own person. Now Bill will have to use everything he can remember, ditch his self-pity, and hopefully make it back to his own time . . . alive...

Only Child

Bill is upset that his cousin, Donnie, a bully, is being sent to live with them. During a short truce, Bill told him about his time-trip, (Time-Travel Runaway) using a device his mysterious neighbor had invented. Sparks fly when Donnie gets Bill into trouble at school. When Donnie feels threatened, he breaks in to use it to go back to the same period, 75 million years in the past! Bill tries to stop him and both end up stranded. If they can’t work together to survive, things could end quickly! Bill’s only hope is for his friend, Mr. Cromwell, to find out what happened and save them; IF they can stay alive until then!
