Christmas Buys!

New! Bo and the Christmas Bandit

In Lynn Sheffield Simmons’ new book, Bo and the Christmas Bandit, Bo, the black Labrador retriever, and Mrs. Barnett are visiting friends in Salado, Texas when Mrs. Barnett becomes the temporary manager of a gift and gourmet coffee shop called the Strawberry Patch. Just before the weekend Christmas Stroll begins, house burglaries start to happen and children’s presents disappear. The police chief calls on Bo to use his crime solving nose to sniff out clues and it is not until Christmas Eve that the mystery is solved with a dramatic twist ending.

Sugar Lump’s Night Before Christmas

On Christmas Eve Santa loses his voice and his reindeer have to go home after coming down with bad colds.  Santa chooses eight cows to help him finish delivering the toys but when he doesn’t pick Sugar Lump, the spunky little calf shouts out loudly that he could help Santa pull the sled.  Recognizing Sugar Lump’s voice could be of help, Santa arranges room in the sled for Sugar Lump to ride and shout out commands to the cows in Sugar Lump’s Night Before Christmas  The book is written in rhyme and Illustrator Sue Marshall Ward did the color illustrations.

When I am not traveling or working on a project for one of the three charitable organizations I started over a span of the last twelve years-the North Texas Book Festival, Inc., Communities civic League, Inc. and the Argyle Seniors’ Activities Center. I am busy writing another mystery in the “Bo Series,” Bo and the Mystery of Tumbleweed Ranch.

Bo and the Christmas Bandit and Sugar Lump’s Night Before Christmas  are now available in bookstores and on the internet.

 

Happy reading!!!
