A Mapper. A Defender. A Keeper. Three make a team to find the Pieces of the World. Thirteen-year-old Emily "M" Tyme has always loved geography, and her curiosity and energy make her a natural explorer of her neighborhood. But when her curiosity leads her to the back porch of Nellie Sugartassle, she finds she has more talents than she thinks. For Nellie is an Aunt, a magical protector of neighborhood children, and she believes that M is a Mapper, one of a team who seek out the magical Pieces of the World. M is skeptical at first, but when she finds her Defender, she begins to believe. Aunt Nellie insists they improve their skills and sends them to Captain Cronenbird for training. So begins M's journey, filled with magic and adventure, where only her talents as a Mapper can determine the ending to her amazing story.
This was the first in my five part series of children's YA/fantasy adventure I wrote for my children. The company went out of business and so we only made it to book three (Lighthouse Rock) but 4 has been completed for years and 5 is also in the bag. Not sure what I should do with the last two.
