A.J. had always dreamed of being a cowboy on his family's Oklahoma farm. Without a horse, he felt like something was missing. How could he care for the animals and help with the farm work without a trusty steed?
One afternoon, A.J. returned home from school to find a surprise waiting for him in the barn - a beautiful little horse named Lady Star. She was now his to ride and care for. From that day on, A.J. spent all his free time learning how to ride Lady Star and caring for her. He dreamed of being skilled enough to ride alongside his grandfather, father, and Jon, the farm hand, during the cattle roundups.
Award-winning author Sherry Roberts weaves a heartfelt story about growing up in the 1930s and 1940s. Based on the tales passed down by her father, Just Call Me Pardner is a must-read for history lovers and those who enjoy stories of the American West.
The Galaxy According to Cece
Excited about her first year of middle school, CeCe and her friends anticipated all the fun they would have in their new school. That was until the BIG announcement. Her family was moving across the country. Her dad called it the 'great adventure', but to CeCe, it was the 'badventure'.
She was starting a new school where she didn't have any friends. What would the kids at school think when they found out she lived in a weird house? What if they don't have a school band? What if they don't have girls' soccer? Would there then be a city league she could join? What if she never makes friends? So many "what ifs" for one eleven-year-old girl to think about.
Why would her parents move at such an important time in her life and to such a weird house? And why does everyone in town think the house is haunted?​​
The Galaxy According to Cece: The Mysterious Dr. Pruitt
Cece is settling into her new home, school, and town. What could possibly go wrong? The scientist who built your house could suddenly appear. Wait, the man is dead. How can he appear? Cece’s new home does have a ghost, and it is Dr. Pruitt, the astronomer, who established the observatory and house attached to it. Is this a friendly ghost or a crazy ghost? Or is Cece the crazy one since she’s the only one who sees him?
​
As if a ghost wasn’t enough to deal with, Cece is still trying to figure out Mercedes. The one girl in the school who seems to dislike her and continues to make life miserable.
Follow along as Cece and her friends, Analise, Gia, and Jaxon, build their friendship and negotiate middle school.​
The Galaxy According to Cece:
The Stars Align
Cece never expected her friendship with Dr. Pruitt to take a sudden turn, but when she and her friends discover a secret room in his domain, tensions rise. With their curiosity piqued and Dr. Pruitt's disapproval looming, the friends must decide whether to push forward or back away. But when Analise's brilliant idea for the science fair involves the secret room, their fate is in Dr. Pruitt's hands. Will he allow them to use what they know, or will he continue to hide from them and create even more problems?
As the first semester of middle school comes to a close, Cece and her friends have a lot on their plates - soccer tryouts, a band concert, the science fair, and even a ghostly encounter. And to top it all off, Cece can't deny her growing feelings for Jaxon. With everything happening at once, how will Cece navigate the end of the semester?
