Beanie’s Web
Beanie’s Web, written by Larry Ebert and illustrated by Jenny Ma, is a gentle children’s book about friendship, trust, and looking beyond first impressions. The story begins when Beanie, a peaceful country spider, asks Frieda, a city fly, to be his friend. Frieda is immediately suspicious because everything she knows about spiders tells her she should keep her distance. Beanie doesn’t argue with her fear so much as patiently show her who he is. He explains that he’s a vegetarian, frees insects that become caught in his web, and uses the morning dewdrops from that web to care for his garden. That simple setup gives young readers an easy way to think about how trust can grow through someone’s actions.
One of the nicest parts of the book is how Beanie’s character comes through in small, concrete moments. He waters his garden, invites Frieda along, shares the fruits and vegetables he’s picked, and includes her in the peaceful little community around him. Frieda’s change of heart feels connected to what she actually sees and experiences. By the time she tells Beanie that she’ll be his friend, the moment feels earned because she’s watched him live up to everything he said about himself. The book’s message about kindness is clear, but it comes through the characters’ interactions.
Jenny Ma’s watercolor-style illustrations give the story much of its personality. The pages are filled with soft greens, blues, pinks, and oranges, and there’s almost always something happening beyond the main conversation. Birds sit in the trees, ducks and frogs gather around the water, and rabbits, raccoons, turtles, and other animals move through Beanie’s world. The illustration of the dew-covered web on page 18 is especially fitting because it turns something Frieda fears into something delicate and beautiful. Later, the garden scenes become crowded with vegetables, flowers, buckets, and friendly animals, which helps make Beanie’s home feel busy and welcoming. The pictures invite children to linger on each spread and notice details that the short text doesn’t spell out.
The ending brings the book’s themes together in a warm, cheerful way. Frieda decides that Beanie really is the peaceful spider he claimed to be, and the final pages connect their new friendship with qualities such as honesty, kindness, loyalty, compassion, and unselfishness. An epilogue explains that Frieda’s name is associated with peace and joy, which fits the home and friendships she has found, and the book closes with coloring and activity pages built around the phrase “Peace + Kindness = Joy.” Beanie’s Web is a sweet, visually playful picture book that gives children a friendly way to talk about prejudice, trust, generosity, and the way a person’s actions can change what we think we know about them.

Positive Outlook and Courage
Sophie Moon and the Honeybees follows a curious young girl through four seasons of beekeeping with her grandfather as lessons from the hive help her navigate friendship, loss, courage, consequences, and change. What was the inspiration for the setup of your story?
The inspiration for the story was based on my own experience as a beekeeper. I have been keeping bees since 2016, and each season brings its own challenges. Spring is very busy; the natural world is waking up after a long, cold winter. A perfect time to start something new. Just like Sophie did in deciding to make a friend and be brave enough to speak up and give a presentation at school. This is the season when the bees start building up their hive to the peak of Summer. This season is hot; the hives are filled with honey and life. Sophie is the happiest with her new best friend Catalina and her success at school. Then, Fall arrives, bringing a big change in the natural world and Sophie’s life. She loses her friend, gets punished by her Grandpa, but she also gains confidence in her own abilities. Because of all the things she achieved in Spring, Summer, and Fall, Sophie goes through a soft arc of character development that gets much stronger in book two. Also, during winter, my beehives are very quiet. The bees stay inside, keeping warm, trying to outlast the winter months. This is the time of reflection and hard truths. Sometimes, some hives don’t make it through the cold months. Sophie spends time outside in the cold snow and realises that her Grandpa will always be her friend and a stout supporter. This means a lot for a shy, sweet girl who was afraid to speak up during class last spring. So, I guess it felt right to use the changing of the four seasons in a year to follow Sophie’s development. I think even we adults often measure achievements in terms of months when we look back at changes in our lives.
Sophie often connects what she learns about bees to friendship, belonging, and loss. How did you develop those parallels between the hive and her personal life?
When Sophie first heard about her Grandpa’s new hobby of beekeeping, she was afraid. She asked, “The stinging kind?” She is so right that starting something new in life may cause a lot of emotional pain, stress, and fear. A lot of people are afraid of bees. I don’t like to get stung, but I do every year, many times. It hurts. Rejections hurt; not knowing how to do something can be stressful; receiving negative feedback can be discouraging, and so watching Grandpa work with the bees, and him allowing the fact that “Yes, they can sting,” lets Sophie know that it is okay to be hurt sometimes. Children have to experience difficulties in a safe way to become confident and face hardships with a positive outlook and courage. This lesson perhaps comes out too strong in book two, but I think that is how children are. They watch the world, their parents, teachers, grandparents, and take away the best with proper guidance.
Grandpa teaches Sophie largely through questions, demonstrations, and natural consequences. Was there a particular person or relationship that inspired his character?
His character is inspired by my own beliefs and experiences. He is based on a mixture of people I have known and know. But once, I received a negative review regarding Grandpa’s character. It said that he was very flat, colourless, with no character arc at all. I wish I could have debated that opinion. I think Grandpa is what every child needs. He is a loving, steadfast, strong, patient, and unchanging family member. His house never changes; he is always present; he bakes cakes, tries new things, and encourages through unconditional love. He is a wall that Sophie can lean on. No child has ever grown up happily around unreliable adults. His unchanging state is what gives Sophie room to grow and become a confident girl.
What is the next book that you are working on, and when will it be available?
I have just published the second book in the Sophie Moon series, and right now I am working on two books. One is a spin-off for Sophie Moon, and the other is based in the Arctic, steeped in the Aurora lights, with creatures fighting for survival.

Finding Bravery in a hive.
A young girl overcomes her fears with the help of her grandfather and his honeybees.
It is spring time and nine years old Sophie Moon is excited about spending time with her grandfather in his log cabin.
He has a surprise for her. A package of honeybees is waiting to be installed in a new hive. Although it isn’t the puppy Sophie hoped for; she is curious about the world of beekeeping.
During the passing seasons, the honeybees become the answer to many of her troubles and fears.
“‘Why don’t we suit up and whisper to the bees. They’ll hear you and mayhap give you advice,’ Grandpa said smiling.”
Supported by her loving grandfather and seeking solace by visiting the beehives in each season, Sophie’s fears and relationships rise and fall throughout the school year.
A charming and educational story about personal growth tied closely to the life of honeybees away from the digital world.
Strong Women
Bootlegger’s Apprentice follows a young bootlegger through the violence and glamour of Prohibition-era Chicago as he discovers that escaping the criminal underworld may be the only way to protect his family. What was the inspiration for the setup of your story?
I fostered an interest in Irish American organized crime from on-screen stories such as The Departed and Boardwalk Empire, through histories of Prohibition Chicago, and fiction such as Don Winslow’s City on Fire trilogy and Mary Miley’s Spirits and Smoke. My family is heavily influenced by my Irish American Grandma Margaret Miller (nee McCarthy), and I combined that with my own experience growing up Catholic (I am now Agnostic) surrounded by strong women to create Aiden McCarthy.
How did you balance real figures and events with Aiden’s fictional journey?
Figures like Louis Armstrong and Mezz Mezzrow, along with real clubs, allow me to really explore Aiden’s interaction with the jazz scene, intoxication, and the experience of African Americans. Much like my own growth from a predominantly white childhood to encountering folks of all different skin colors, Aiden finds beauty in those with different backgrounds. I wrote Aiden’s story to respect and be real about history and race. His friendship with William Crutchfield, Dean O’Banion’s actual porter, is written as a nod to my own experience. I aim to give the story more flavor.
Aiden grows from being bootlegging muscle to club negotiator to having to kill in self-defense. I textured his moral journey with actual events in Dean O’Banion’s history where O’Banion’s hubris eventually gets the best of him. Aiden comes to terms with life-and-death decisions as O’Banion makes a fatal mistake.
The novel writes O’Banion with a certain degree of charity, but he really was rather open-minded for his day on African Americans and homosexuals. “They can’t help how they are” is a direct quote from an O’Banion biography.
Al Capone, Johnny Torrio, and various politicians and police who encounter Aiden and O’Banion allow me to inject a certain amount of authenticity into how I imagine Jazz Age Chicago. I enjoy figures such as crusading journalist Robert St. John, who formed an uneasy defiance to Capone and is interesting to me because of my background in journalism. The corruption really existed as portrayed, but I did take quite a bit of liberty to make one of O’Banion’s antagonists into a juicy character.
The novel handles Al Capone as a human who cares for his family, his partially deaf son, and his older brother mainly. He is also a thug driven by an inability to cope with sorrow (no spoilers) and his place in the mob hierarchy.
At what point in developing the novel did you know that Aiden would spare Capone and bargain for his family’s safety instead?
Al Capone has to live, but I want Aiden to really challenge his morality when it comes to using lethal force. Aiden has a certain ethical code, sees the logic in his decisions, and is supported by strong women to make better choices. I don’t want to give away any spoilers.
What is the next book that you are working on, and when will it be available?
I have started a prequel to my Ron & Carey series. The series is about an Army veteran, Ron McCallister, who charms adversaries and his lover alike while outmaneuvering crooked politicians and bloodthirsty thugs from 2008 to 2009. I want to explore Ron’s return from Iraq around 2005 and run-ins with the Chicago Outlaw Motorcycle Club and corrupt authorities as he reconciles his new reality and eventual introduction to a stripper with a heart of gold. While Ron broods and kicks ass, his Aunt Peggy serves up homespun spitfire, much like my Grandma Margaret and Great Aunt Ethel.
I’ll maybe publish it in about five or so years. Good stories take time!

Romance in Unexpected Places
Remember, It’s Just in Your Head follows a university student navigating grief, anxiety, identity, guilt, and the difficult journey toward choosing to live after the suicide of his close friend. What was the inspiration for the setup of your story?
I am someone who never really acknowledged the mental health of others around me when I was growing up. I realised as I grew older that it’s important to be conscious of everyone who is around you, because their presence can be very beneficial to recovery when you feel low.
Life can take a major turn without any warning, so Reuben personifies how unpredictable these scenarios can be.
Guilt comes because of reflection on decisions that have had consequences that could’ve been avoided. The struggle is that you can’t change the past, and that in itself is a feeling you have to overcome.
How did you balance the novel’s darker themes with its moments of humor, friendship, romance, and hope?
All our emotional responses are built upon interwoven experiences; ruminating on darker themes would make the story too morbid. Reuben as a character’s life still needed to progress even if he was faced with such profound, depressing challenges.
I made Reuben an intuitive character who explored himself as a person and worked out how to tackle his vulnerability by seeking support when he realised he needed it. Humour is a way of relieving stress and anxiety, connecting with people to find positives out of awkward or uncomfortable situations. The story explores this by expanding upon the various personalities you come across in day-to-day life.
Finding romance in unexpected places helps Reuben develop as a character; he learns about his sexuality by exposing himself to people who can relate to it themselves. Nathan is a fundamental character in that plot arc and shows that there are people out there who are going or have gone through similar experiences.
How did you approach writing Reuben’s memories of Ava without reducing her character to her death?
Reuben reflects on several occasions throughout the story when he is faced with objects or situations that give him nostalgia.
Ava has a relationship with him that has lasted many years, and this is depicted by how well they know each other. This is shown in how much they open up to each other and how they promise to be there for each other when they’re struggling. They share sanctuary spaces around town that Reuben feels connected to and comfortable escaping from the harsh community that he is exposed to.
Ava is represented both in life and in death by her Polaroid Camera and how she insists that Reuben takes pictures of “the good stuff.” She shows him how to find beauty in the ordinary and turn something plain into something special.
The story explores art in various forms to show how much someone can connect with their natural passion. Reuben knows by the end of the story that whether Ava is alive or dead is irrelevant to how influential she has been in supporting him mentally in his acceptance of himself.
What did you want readers to understand about queer love within a story that is also centered on grief?
That LGBT+ people are not alone when they’re nervous about coming out. That mental health is a journey that encompasses acceptance regardless of how long it takes.
Sexuality and gender are not something that should define you, in the same way that anxiety shouldn’t. Just be true to yourself and take your time with the hurdles that you come across.
If you love someone, you should make it count, whether they’re the same or opposite sex. Missing opportunities is not something you’d want to dwell on in the future or regret.
Grief is not something that you should have to endure all through life; it shouldn’t trap you. However, all things that are close to our heart take time to heal.
Make sure you value yourself and everything around you because life is never guaranteed to be stable. Make things as easy as possible for yourself to achieve the happiest well-being.
Reuben never chose to be gay, but he learns this from finding solace. Any reader who can relate to this needs to know that life is always about focusing on the “good stuff.”

Haunted by what might happen and burdened by his secret, Reuben is trying his hardest to cope. With him sharing sanctuary spaces with his close friend Ava around town, the two have places to relieve stress, where no one can find them.
When Ava’s own pain proves deeper than anyone knew, Reuben is left with grief, guilt, and the impossible question of whether he got caught up in his own spirals too much to notice. Remember, It’s Just In Your Head is a tender contemporary novel about friendship, loss, self-forgiveness, and making sure that anxiety isn’t something that defines you.
“Photography isn’t about capturing perfect moments. It’s about finding beauty in the ordinary, and turning something so plain into something special.”
Charlotte’s Journey Home
James A. Brandt’s Charlotte’s Journey Home is a warm, reflective historical novel about a young British girl evacuated from London during World War II. Charlotte is only four when a bomb crater near her home convinces her mother that staying in London has become too dangerous. She’s sent north as part of the wartime evacuation of children, carrying a small suitcase, her rag doll Rosie, and the promise that her parents will keep writing. From there, the novel follows Charlotte across five years as she grows from a frightened child into a capable nine-year-old shaped by two families and two very different homes. The book’s inspiration is especially meaningful: Brandt explains that the story grew from his own mother’s childhood memory of being displaced during Operation Pied Piper, while the characters and events themselves are fictional.
What gives the novel its emotional pull is the way Brandt keeps the war at a child’s level. Charlotte doesn’t understand military strategy or politics. She understands an empty chair at supper, a mother waving from a railway platform, letters that take too long to arrive, and the relief of discovering that the countryside sky contains birds instead of bombers. The Whitaker family, who take Charlotte into their Yorkshire farm, become the heart of the middle section. Arthur teaches her about crops and seasons, Margaret provides the steady affection she desperately needs, and Emily and Samuel gradually become a sister and brother in every meaningful sense. Brandt also uses small objects particularly well. The embroidered handkerchief hidden by Charlotte’s mother, the brass kangaroo given to her by an Australian soldier, the worn family photograph, and the carved wooden lamb all become physical reminders of people who’ve loved her. By the epilogue, those keepsakes have become a record of an entire childhood.
Readers familiar with Michelle Magorian’s Goodnight Mister Tom will recognize some common ground. Both stories center on British children evacuated from cities during World War II and explore how an unfamiliar country household can become a genuine home. Brandt’s novel, though, is built more like an adult remembering childhood than a child experiencing events entirely in the present. Charlotte frequently looks back from old age and interprets moments she couldn’t fully understand when they happened, especially her mother’s sacrifices and the complicated feeling of belonging to two families at once. That gives the book the quality of a family story passed down across generations. There’s also an echo of authors such as Michael Morpurgo in Brandt’s interest in ordinary people caught inside enormous historical events. The war provides the setting and pressure, but the real subject is how kindness, routine, letters, and family bonds help a child build a life while history is rearranging everything around her.
The final chapters bring the novel’s central idea together especially well. Victory means Charlotte can finally return to London and reunite with both parents, but by then “home” has become much more complicated than a single address. Leaving the Whitakers hurts because the farm is no longer a temporary backdrop. It’s where she learned to read, work, make friends, care for animals, and grow up. Her reunion with her mother and father is deeply satisfying precisely because Brandt allows that happiness to coexist with her grief at leaving the second family she loves. The epilogue carries that idea through the rest of Charlotte’s life, including continued visits to the Whitakers and her decision to place Margaret beside her mother at her wedding. Charlotte’s Journey Home is a tender family-centered novel about displacement, memory, courage, and the surprising capacity a child has to belong fully to more than one place. Its strongest moments come from that simple insight: being sent away changes Charlotte’s idea of home, but it also enlarges it.

Lila’s Story: A Story of War, Alaska and the Open Sea
Chris Flanders’s Lila’s Story is a fictionalized life story inspired by a real woman whose career and travels stretched across several remarkable decades. The novel begins in 1935, when Lila Michaels is building a career at Chicago’s Cook County Hospital, and follows her through a broken engagement, service in the Women’s Army Corps, classified work in North Africa and Italy, and a new life with the Corps of Engineers in Alaska. Her winter voyages aboard freighters eventually take her around the world. It’s an unusually broad portrait of a woman who keeps choosing motion, responsibility, and experience.
Lila’s competence is the heart of the book. She isn’t a battlefield hero in the conventional sense. Her power comes from recognizing patterns, organizing chaos, asking necessary questions, and understanding that paperwork can determine whether people receive supplies or survive an operation. Her encounters with Generals Patton and Clark give that work historical weight, while friendships with women such as Ann, Michelle, Ruthie, Flossie, and Evelyn reveal the sustaining force of female companionship. Her relationships with Phil, Matt, and Carl also trace her emotional growth from romantic intensity toward a steadier partnership that leaves room for independence.
The novel unfolds through 93 short chapters, giving it the feel of an album assembled from vivid episodes. Flanders is especially good at sensory settings: the suffocating heat of Chicago, cramped troop transports, Sicilian vineyards, Alaskan mud and snow, and the hypnotic rhythm of a freighter at sea. Food, coffee, dancing, and physical affection recur as small comforts during periods of upheaval. The dialogue is direct and conversational, and the closing photo gallery adds poignancy by placing the real Lila’s face beside the fictionalized events.
The book spends considerable time inside Lila’s daily routines. Meals, dances, work assignments, and conversations create an intimate record of her life. Some dialogue carries more historical explanation than ordinary conversation would, and occasional shifts in tense or phrasing make the prose feel uneven. Still, several passages have real force, particularly Lila’s search for the missing Matt, her near drowning in Lake Lugano, the eruption of Vesuvius, and the response to Alaska’s devastating 1964 earthquake. The Valdez town meeting near the end is especially effective because it turns engineering into a painful question about memory, safety, and home.
I would recommend Lila’s Story to people who enjoy biographical historical fiction centered on women’s working lives. It’ll have particular appeal for anyone interested in the WAC, wartime intelligence and logistics, postwar Alaska, or the slower pleasures of travel by sea. Readers who like expansive life stories, capable heroines, and history experienced through jobs, friendships, romances, and ordinary comforts will find plenty here. The sexual material is candid, so the book is best suited to adult readers. It’s a warm tribute to a woman who built a meaningful life by remaining useful, curious, and ready to go somewhere new.

The Master Chief’s Sea Stories Volume II Duty Ashore and USS Comte De Grasse (DD 974)
Johnny J. Moye’s The Master Chief’s Sea Stories, Volume II is a substantial memoir of a young sailor moving from two relatively freewheeling years of shore duty into eighteen demanding months aboard a Spruance-class destroyer. Moye builds the book from journal entries he kept during his Navy service, then surrounds those entries with the perspective of the older man looking back. That gives the book two voices at once: the twenty-something sailor recording what happened that day, and the retired master chief considering what those experiences meant decades later. The result is part shipboard chronicle, part travel memoir, part coming-of-age story, and, increasingly as the book progresses, a study of how someone learns to lead before he feels ready.
What makes the book especially engaging is how thoroughly Moye captures the texture of Navy life. He writes about teletypes, watch rotations, message traffic, inspections, repairs, training, qualifications, port visits, drinking, running, girlfriends, his daughters, and the hundreds of small demands that fill the spaces between major events. His technical explanations of communications work are detailed enough to show why a malfunction or routing error matters, but the machinery is secondary to the people operating it. Again and again, Moye finds himself relying on younger radiomen who know things he doesn’t yet know, dealing with sailors who need more supervision than he expected, and trying to meet standards while exhausted and under pressure. His journal-based structure makes that progression unusually tangible. We don’t simply hear that the Count was difficult duty. We watch days accumulate, problems recur, tempers flare, mistakes carry consequences, and responsibility settle more heavily on him.
Moye’s voice is candid, earthy, funny, sentimental, and often self-critical. He’s willing to recount drunken escapades and sexual adventures with the same specificity he brings to radio procedures, and he doesn’t tidy up his younger self for the reader. That openness matters because the book’s central transformation depends on seeing the whole person. The sailor who parties hard in foreign ports is also the father covering his rack with photographs of his daughters, the runner using exercise to clear his head, the technician who can coax a failing teletype back to life, and the inexperienced first class gradually realizing that leadership means more than issuing orders or chewing someone out. Near the end, Moye identifies May 27, 1983, off Bodø, Norway, as the point when his understanding of leadership changed. By the final chapter, he can reduce the whole experience to a telling distinction: he learned to be a radioman aboard the Manitowoc, and he learned to be a leader aboard the Comte De Grasse.
I’d recommend this to Navy veterans, active-duty sailors, military-history readers, and anyone interested in what everyday Cold War naval service actually felt like from an enlisted sailor’s point of view. It should also appeal to readers who enjoy memoirs built from diaries because the journal entries preserve details that a conventional retrospective autobiography would probably lose. People interested in leadership may find more here than they expect. Moye’s lessons aren’t presented as polished management principles handed down from a position of authority. They emerge from fatigue, bad judgment, technical failures, responsibility for other people, and the uncomfortable recognition that good intentions don’t automatically make someone a good leader. That gives the book its strongest quality: beneath all the ports, beer, machinery, rough seas, and genuine sea stories, it’s the record of a young man being shaped by responsibility while he’s still figuring out who he is.

Book 5 – Rosalind Franklin’s DNA Discovery: Dr. K’s Portal Through Time
Rosalind Franklin’s DNA Discovery, the fifth book in Dr. Katherine E. A. Korkidis’s Dr. K’s Portal Through Time series, blends time-travel adventure with an introduction to molecular biology. Jennifer and Daniel journey to 1950s London, where Rosalind Franklin guides them through her laboratory work, the creation of X-ray diffraction images, and the evidence behind DNA’s double-helix structure. Their visit later expands to Franklin’s research on viruses, giving readers a broader picture of her scientific career and influence.
The science is presented patiently and in concrete terms. DNA becomes a twisted ladder, diffraction patterns become clues written in light, and model-building turns an invisible molecule into something children can picture. Ideas such as base pairing, replication, hydration, and the connection between structure and function appear several times, creating a steady instructional rhythm. The resource section and science-primer links also make the book especially practical for classroom lessons or further exploration at home.
Franklin emerges as precise, resilient, and deeply committed to evidence. The book pays close attention to her working methods, showing discovery as a process of preparing samples, controlling conditions, recording results, and revising interpretations. It also addresses the prejudice Franklin faced and the delayed recognition of her contributions in clear, age-appropriate language. Much of the story unfolds through explanatory dialogue, so the experience often feels like joining an unusually memorable science lesson with a warm adventure wrapped around it.
I’d recommend Rosalind Franklin’s DNA Discovery to curious upper-elementary and middle-grade readers, particularly children who enjoy biology, experiments, or stories about overlooked figures in history. Parents and teachers looking for an accessible bridge between scientific concepts and character education will also find plenty to discuss, from research ethics and collaboration to perseverance and fair recognition. It’s a thoughtful invitation to see science as both a body of knowledge and a human pursuit shaped by patience, integrity, and curiosity.
