The Adventures of Annabelle

About the Book

With Halloween approaching, Annabelle is excited to shop for a costume to wear to the school parade. She cannot focus on anything else! She leaves a mess everywhere she goes. She is like a tornado whirling through the house! Her school books are scattered, she leaves crumbs and dirty dishes on the counter, and her room is the ultimate disaster! Her mom lets her know that there will be no shopping until she cleans up her room. In her rush to go to the mall, Annabelle decides to take a shortcut. Her mom will never notice, and poor Taboo pays the price!

About the Author

Judy is the mother of two grown girls born only a year apart. The funny and sometimes awkward scenarios found in the Annabelle book series are inspired by Judy’s two children as she helped them navigate through their own life experiences. Judy has found a way to bring these stories to life. She encourages children today to find humor in not-so-funny circumstances, warmth and compassion in sad ones, and to emerge from all situations knowing how much they are loved by their family and friends, no matter what the outcome! Her wish is that all children grow up in this world with confidence and knowing that kindness exists in everyone, and sometimes it just takes a little effort and patience for it to shine through.
