Sammy the Spaniel
The beach could be an exciting, thrilling and sometimes a little bit of a scary place to a small puppy; the ground on the beach tickled and felt odd under his paws and there were strange little creatures that seemed to scurry sideways, but Sammy didn’t like them as they could nip your nose and that hurt, he also thought the water tasted very odd and made you very thirsty.
Welcome to Sammy’s world, which he shares with the twins Steven and Sarah. Join him during this first year and discover with him that there is a much wider world outside the cottage and the beach; where life is one big adventure to be shared and enjoyed with the twins, but at the end of the day, it is warm, safe and filled with love and laughter.

He has an ominous look in his eyes and he is hungry for an entrée and lunch. The two intrepid surfers looked like a tasty morsel indeed! How will the three friends escape?

San Diablo, The Devil’s Haven
They had all heard the rumours about the place of course, but they had dismissed them as jailhouse myth and bullshit, a place where the prison doctor would pronounce you dead, and you would disappear from heart and memory, and enter into Hell on Earth as the warden’s guest in San Diablo the devil’s haven.
The Devil’s Haven is set in the middle of the baking hot desert. Hidden far from public view and scrutiny resides the top-level, top-secret super-max correctional facility, a warehouse of sorts for the very worst of the worst of humanity’s dregs and gangsters, those sentenced to death for their heinous crimes, those that no one would miss.
Through twists and intrigue, it soon becomes clear that all is not as it seems at San Diablo, neither is the hyper-sadistic warden, nor his new guest the bizarre and enigmatic high-profile inmate en route to the hell pit, or the mysterious CIA super agents entirely as they seem at the Devil's Haven, San Diablo.

Santa Remembers All Good Kids
Santa Remembers All Good Kids reminds readers that good morals begin at home, and it starts with teaching kids how to do the little things with ease that they otherwise wouldn’t want to do by exposing them to examples from other children around the world.
Helping kids understand that material things are less important than moments spent with someone is significant. It also encourages more communication between the child and the parent. Lastly, it teaches kids how relevant goals are and how good behaviour is valuable in achieving any goal. Parents and carers often find it challenging to get kids to do things that would help them in their health or other areas such as brushing their teeth at night time or in the morning – putting their toys away, taking their medicines, doing their homework, etc.
Santa Remembers All Good Kids is about a little girl named Mary, who decides that she would love nothing better than to spend some time with Santa Claus because she believes that time is the greatest gift of all gifts during Christmas and she believes that Santa will grant her wish. It also includes 14 stories of kids all around the world—from Spain to Italy to Germany—who are well-behaved and receive toys from Santa as a reward. In addition, it serves as a learning and educational tool for all kids.
