Raising Ripples

Jessica is Missing

Ripples, who is almost eight, is determined to find her, but when he also goes missing, it's up to his big sister Foxii and her friend Pterro to follow the clues he left behind. Even when Ripples' parents give up, these two will keep looking, asking questions and even act as bait for the kidnappers. Will everyone make it home again? Will they have a home and family to go home to? Friends, strangers, and a prayer or two are needed to help these kids out.

Continuing in a world changed by science, Raising Ripples is the second story in the Change the World collection. It is a stand-alone novel aimed at middle grade to young teens. This novel deals with social issues including missing or sold children (human trafficking), homelessness, poverty, and loss of family. There is no on page violence, sexuality or death. Written to encourage people to pay attention to the world around them, I hope my readers will work toward making it a better place in the future.
