The Adventures of Trina and the Great Barrett: A Rousing Tale with Black and White Illustrations by the Author

This fast-moving tale sets young readers' imaginations on fire!
All the color in the universe is fading into nothingness; eleven-year-old Trina steals a ride on the back of Barrett--a very large bird--to journey to the edge of the earth to solve the mystery and find missing musicians who left their homes to play color back into the sky, sea, and flowers.
The duo escape spear-wielding Shaggies. whirl through a fragrant storm of rose petals, ride wild waves in a piano-boat, outsmart a dragon, are assisted by a parliament of dizzy owls, and experience many more adventures in their quest.
Friendship, courage, clever thinking and cooperation save the world in this fantastical story that twinkles with unique imagery.
