I read Lindsey and the Jedgar—twice—and
then bought two copies, one for my grandchildren in England and
one for my grandchildren in California. The older kids in England
breezed through it and loved it. The younger kids? Their mom and
dad took turns reading it out loud at bedtime, to the delight of
the kids and (an added bonus) to the pleasure of their parents.
Rare to find a children's book that parents can enjoy as well! So,
Brava!

Itself
Having bought Lindsey and the Jedgar for my niece, I decided
to read it before giving it to her, and as a scientist, I was particularly
delighted to notice that Hayflick Theory is mentioned
in the story. Hayflick's number (a normal cultured human cell
has a limited and predetermined number of times it can divide) is
one of the main theories on aging and aging is indeed very special
on Pensioners' Paradise. Impressive, the author certainly
did her homework and not just about Shakespeare!
Lindsey and the Jedgar is a delightful book, engaging to read and
I had more than one late night doing so. A good author writes a
book on many levels and has something for everyone. So if you like
a good adventure, this is for you. My compliments to the author!

Ahhh, the courage to write a tale that can be included in the "once
upon a time -and they all lived happily ever after" genre.
It takes not only what I consider courage of the true sort, but
a deep passion for life and belief in the future as well!
And of course, humbly considering myself an eternal child, I appreciate
the skill of your pen in taking us on a wonderful visit to other
worlds, which do indeed continue to exist.
Pat Manson, passionate reader (especially
of books by people and for people who wisely realize that the kingdom
of God is for children! And their guardian angels.)
