Overview
Annabelle's most favorite person in the world is her grandfather. They share adventures, stories, hopes, and dreams and rely on each other completely. Until one day, things aren't quite the same. It's little things at first, overlooked and excused but over time, she realizes that part of him is slipping away with each memory he can no longer quite hold onto. The story is an all-to-common one as we live with an aging population, and for families that are as close as Annabelle's, finding a way to understand what is happening, and help Papaw feel connected and remembered as he forgets, is a lesson in compassion and understanding as one family finds a way keep one, they love with them always. Written primarily for children between the ages of six and eleven, Annabelle and the Forget-Me-Nots will appeal to any family that loves lyrical picture books in the style of The Gruffalo, where the rhymes are as fun and engaging for the reader as the story is for the child. This is the third installment in the Annabelle series, the first two: Annabelle and Miss Pruney Face and Annabelle and the Three Most Terrible Chores were self-published, along with a Christmas book, Criminy Kringle. I have another manuscript completed, Crumbs Under My Bed, which is a story about following the rules, or not really following the rules, as a young boy sneaks cookies and cakes and other snacks up to his room after dinner.

Reviews
He loved when I walked With him down memory lane To when he played college football And the records that remain There once was a time When we hiked through the hills That I got kind of lost The memory still gives me chills
Author Information
This is the third installment in the Annabelle series, the first two: Annabelle and Miss Pruney Face and Annabelle and the Three Most Terrible Chores were self-published, along with a Christmas book, Criminy Kringle. I have another manuscript completed, Crumbs Under My Bed, which is a story about following the rules, or not really following the rules, as a young boy sneaks cookies and cakes and other snacks up to his room after dinner. A little about me. I have three kids, all grown, and one granddaughter who is three that lives with my wife and I in North Carolina. My granddaughter is not the muse for the first three Annabelle stories, but I am sure she will inspire others. We also have three dogs, one of which is my son's. I am available for press tours and launch programs if you believe working together has merit.
