Book Description
The loss of a loved one is a devastating and soul-destroying experience. The loss of a dearly beloved parent for a child not yet old enough to reason why, leaves an abyss of pain and confusion and a world that seems unchanged, yet isn't at all the same. Black emptiness and the need to continue as normal, despite the very foundation of life being ripped out from under you, becomes a daily challenge. Attendance at routine events, household chores, school projects, dealing with friends and their inability to deal with your loss any more than you can don't stop, and despite the emptiness and anguish, life goes on. Somehow the pieces have to be picked up, woven into the anguish and meaning restored. Ella's Story evolved out of a school visit to Samson House in Fremantle. Frederick Samson was a third-generation descendant of one of Western Australia's earliest pioneering families and also one of the longest serving mayors of the city of Fremantle in Western Australia. Students at Orana Primary School in Willetton, Western Australia, on a school visit to Samson House, were assigned to write a story about the visit to Samson House. Rather than embark on an account of the visit, the poignancy of the author's pain at the loss of her beloved father has been skillfully woven into Ella's Story, simultaneously delivering a sense of a child's anguish and inexplicable pain in the search for meaning into life's tragedies, the reaching out for a parent, and the agony of not knowing what the future holds. Ella's Story is a child's book, but it opens up a world of insights into the development of a child's anguish in combating one of the real and inevitable challenges likely to be faced by young and old alike as they traverse along life's journey. Excellent reading for both children and adults.

Book Description
“Greenwood’s glowing dark ruby of a novel brilliantly transforms the true crime story that inspired Nabokov’s Lolita. Shatteringly original and eloquently written....So ferociously suspenseful, I found myself holding my breath.” —Caroline Leavitt, New York Times bestselling author of Pictures of You Camden, NJ, 1948. When 11 year-old Sally Horner steals a notebook from the local Woolworth's, she has no way of knowing that 52 year-old Frank LaSalle, fresh out of prison, is watching her, preparing to make his move. Accosting her outside the store, Frank convinces Sally that he’s an FBI agent who can have her arrested in a minute—unless she does as he says. This chilling novel traces the next two harrowing years as Frank mentally and physically assaults Sally while the two of them travel westward from Camden to San Jose, forever altering not only her life, but the lives of her family, friends, and those she meets along the way. Based on the experiences of real-life kidnapping victim Sally Horner and her captor, whose story shocked the nation and inspired Vladimir Nabokov to write his controversial and iconic Lolita, this heart-pounding story by award-winning author T. Greenwood at last gives a voice to Sally herself.
