Summer At Stillwater Lake

by Jeanne Linton

Overview

Amy Anderson takes us on a journey into Northern Michigan where she spends her summer working at a remote fishing lodge for her aunt and uncle. In the company of her cousin, Paul, they ride the bus as far as Cheboygan only to find no one waiting to meet them. This is only the beginning of their troubled journey.

Along the way, they meet Pete and his load of feeder pigs. The story builds when the cousins run into Billy, Pete’s grandson. Billy is on a quest to win the pig race at the county fair in August. Intrigue tightens when they come up against Billy’s arch rival, who’s bent on winning the race at all costs. Join us on this adventure and find out how Billy meets the challenge.

A sub-story emerges as Amy witnesses the development of a bond between two young pirates, a dog, and a litter of kittens. Mrs. Farley, a visitor to the resort, comes to understand the meaning of compassion when she encounters the pirates. How this all plays out is not only heart-warming but an example of karma at work.

As you leaf through the story, you will discover the author has woven the thread of adventure, intrigue, deception and mystery into the story.

About the Author

Jeanne Linton spent her early years in a small railroad town in British Columbia. In 1952 she moved to Vancouver, attended high school, and worked as a secretary. When she married in 1962, the family moved to Detroit, Michigan, where three children were born. Relocating to Linden, Michigan in 1975, a fourth child arrived. Since 1983 Irene has divided her time between Michigan and British Columbia.

Her love for writing, especially in a novelette format for children, began in the late 1980s and has grown from a casual affair to a serious commitment. Jeanne teaches strong values and powerful lessons without preaching. Her captivating storylines are both entertaining and engaging and certainly appeal to the child hidden within each of us. The Elliotmobile is her first book. Coming soon: The Adventures of Fieora Radcliffe and Summer at Stillwater Lake will join her works.

Jeanne's words reveal that the source of real magic lies deep within the human spirit. We are never too young to learn how it works.

“My journey in the publication of my first book was like entering a maze. There were so many choices to make and so many false starts that I wasted not only time but also revenue. However, with Fieora’s guidance, I was able to plot my course and find my way through. I plan to use Fieora’s help for my other works, and trust that we will have a long and mutually prosperous relationship.”
