Description
Thirteen-year-old Estelle lives with her cousins, Ray and Harry, under the care of their guardian, Uncle Graylon. In the year 2300, Estelle enjoys living at the beautiful Lakeside apartments on Mars. The air has been breathable for almost fifty years. She has fun, playing with the fish in their beautiful lake. Estelle and her cousins are always ready to travel to different parts of Mars. Once they visited the "face" formation. They didn't even know the formation until they saw it from an airship - with the light shining on it in just the right way. Estelle even tolerates the Sun-Storm drills that they have every week. She remembers, four years ago, a Solar Wind only dug up a few bushes and snapped a few trees. This one is different. Now they must begin a new adventure - how to get out of Mars, with no airships.

Wow. As I sit here, writing my bio, it is the hardest part of this book, as I had to really think about who I was. First and foremost, I am a child of God, a mother of two daughters and four grandchildren, and live a simple life with my husband in small town Ontario, Canada. I always wanted to do something meaningful in my life to help others and to show my daughters they can accomplish anything. With no real skills, I thought that going to college to become an interior decorator-as I love decorating homes-would be the ticket. Turns out, it wasn't. It wasn't until I met Jesus and was baptized with the Holy Spirit that my life changed dramatically. He not only saved me, He also knew my heart's desire when I didn't know what it was myself. As I sit here typing this bio, I am humbled by the power and love He shows all of us each and every day. I am so honoured to serve Him, and to hopefully reach others in this way! Even if this book reaches only one person, I am grateful for the honour of doing something I never thought possible for the King of Kings to reach others. Amen!
