GLENDA BAILEY-MERSHON
Young Eve Gates flees the tragedy that besets her childhood friend, and the haunting mystery of her Romani grandmother’s demise, for the romantic places she has conjured through her love of reading––only to be called back by her mother’s illness. In this honest portrayal of girls growing up in a Southern mill town, three generations of women evoke the power of friendship and family.

THE BUNNY SIDE OF EASTER
On Easter morning, as parents’ watch their children scurry about the yard, looking for Easter eggs, many feel disconnected between the legend of the Easter bunny and the real meaning of Easter. The Bunny Side of Easter fills the gap, taking children on an exciting and charming adventure with hints of allegory that point children to the true significance of Easter.
