Petite Breaux’s book the whispering of My Heart is the story of a bullied, brutally lonely, and despairing 11 year old DeDee, daughter of a single and quite strict mother. DeDee longs to be accepted and understood by anyone, someone other than her mother, and her unbearable loneliness eats away at her young soul.
DeDee spends broken days at school and be it by daydreams, playing with the Ouija Board, or by other means, she conjures she needs a pet monkey to fill her soul, all the while knowing her mother would never allow her as much as a normal pet like a kitty or puppy.
Author Breaux’s book touches a painfully sore spot within anyone who has experienced being left out, feeling unloved, mistreated, and having been too alone, too often. The Whispering of My Heart is a story of redemption, the redemption of love through the heroic rescue of a monkey that DeDee learns is in the home of her dour neighbor Mr. Reynolds. And Mr. Reynolds is badly abusing Chloe, the name DeDee gives to the monkey.
The belief in DeDee’s heart that Chloe will take away her heart's pain and fill her soul gives her the courage to rescue Chloe freeing both of them in unexpected ways.
Author Breaux’s is a heart-warming story that touches the heart and soul.
The second book in the Megan Martin series takes Megan, her best friend May, and now the nosy neighbor girl, Brianna, on adventures through a haunted house.
