Boomer Sisters

I am totally blowing my own horn...

Dan Ward, a good friend ours, asked if I could help him out with the illustrations in his children's books. Loosely based on his own two adorable girls, the stories are about two sisters who are full of adventure and curiosity. They are geared for kids, grades 2-4, but both Eric and I had a hard time setting them down once we started reading.

Anyway, just in case you were wondering what I was doing with my extra time.

Meet the Boomer Sisters




















Book Description:

"When BJ and JB Boomer move to a new town, they are excited to be living near their funny Uncle Q. His shop is a fantastic wonderland of mystery, full of mirrors, colors and flying machines. But... on the first day of school, things take a turn for the worse when they discover the new librarian has emptied the entire library.
Now, it's up to the Boomer sisters to take action. Together with some special helpers, they launch a plan to take back the school, rescue the real library books and re-enthuse their classmates."



The Boomer Sisters Meet Champy




















Book Description:

"The Boomer Sisters are back! It's summertime, and the girls are on a quest to find Champy, the elusive creature who is rumored to live in Lake Champlain. This just might be the year The Boomer Sisters Meet Champy!"
