My current book, “The Lost Secret of the Green Man: The Crystal Keeper Chronicles Book 2", was released Jan. 2010. The Crystal Keeper series is for Middle Readers 9-12 years old and deals with the theme of self-confidence and protecting our environment. It is a way to reach and give inspiration to children 9-12, when believing in anything and having faith in yourself seems impossible.
I found that writing about my passion and using childhood memories really helped me create this book. I'm hoping all children that read my novel enter a world that is safe, full of adventure, and challenges their imagination.
Here is a little about the book 2:
Who's got time for homework when your problems involve evil sorcerers? Wanda should be studying for a quiz, avoiding the bullies at her new school and living a normal tweenage life. But, she is called upon once more to be a savior of the fairies, a protector of the fey, a Crystal Keeper. Bees are dying, fairies are missing and nobody knows why.
Wanda and her new friend, Edina, visit a crystal store to search for clues. They read about the Green Man, a forest king who Wanda thinks could be the key to solving the mystery. But, when a unicorn appears in her bedroom, the mystery just seems to deepen. Perhaps by asking the right questions, she can find the answer to the crisis. Or will she just end up in peril herself?
A little about the author Tiffany Turner:
I have always loved crystals and I’ve enjoyed wire-wrapping crystal pendants since 1989. When not writing, I teach 3rd graders in San Jose how to read and write while using my own writing experiences to inspire my students. I enjoy traveling to exciting places while researching ideas for stories and novels. I also participate in Renaissance Fairs in Northern Californiawhere playing the Gaelic Harp.
Accomplishments: I have been a elementary school teacher for over 14 years. I've taught grades 2nd through 5th.
