#Middlegrademonday: It's My Book Birthday!

Hello, and happy first day of November! Yes it's 11/1 and that means it's the official release day for THE BACKYARD SECRETS OF DANNY WEXLER! 
​

Can you believe it's been five years since I've published a book?  I started writing this one a few years ago and after many, many revisions, I'm so excited to have it finally available. Here's the scoop:

​Set in 1978, 11-year-old Danny suspects the disappearance of a local kid is connected to an old Bermuda Triangle theory involving UFOs. But hunting for aliens is complicated, and it doesn’t help that his best friend’s mom doesn’t want her son hanging out with a Jewish boy.
As Danny attempts to unmask the mystery, he uncovers the antisemitism in his town and finds that few people are exactly what they seem.

​Recommended for grades 3-7, ages 8-13.
