About this title

Synopsis

Uniqueness: Compellingly realistic fiction flows persuasively into fantasy, melding the two. Rich with intriguing novelties like a knitted tree house, a secret room operated by cow magnets, and an antagonist who speaks Ravenese. A natural for audio and movie. Strong appeal to niche audiences: environmentalists, spiritual seekers,blood- hound fanciers, knitters and spinners. Timely: This compelling and inspirational novel provides a powerful antidote to our distressing times. Market Positioning: The Forest Within trilogy will capture the readership of books like Harry Potter, The Celestine Prophecy, The Power of Now, Lovely Bones and The Secret Life of Bees. It presents itself as a rare inter-generational novel of the highest quality. Our overarching mission is to make available publications that acknowledge, celebrate, and encourage others to express their true essence and thereby come to remember who they really are.

From the Inside Flap

Note: This riddle appears on the book cover: "Can you retrieve a treasure from the bottom of a pond without disturbing the water?"

Inside left flap text:

To: The One holding this now

Can you solve the riddle of the pond? If you can, will it change your life? This is the challenge left for Ben by his Grandma Daphne, who has recently died in the mysterious forest near her home. Ben and his sister Sara convince their reluctant parents to move there, in spite of the fierce hermit who lives beyond the swamp. Ben and Sara learn the deepest truths of the forest while their parents worst fears seem to be realized. A wheelchair-bound private eye with a three-legged bloodhound, a Zen-master-like woman, an acorn flute homing device, Grandma Daphne s invisible presence, a tree house knit right into a tree, and a golden thread will guide you, as well as Ben and Sara, to discover the life-changing answer to the mysterious riddle.
