Meet Hamilton Troll, a fun-loving friend to the forest creatures and quite a unique little troll. But Hamilton has a problem; a fear he simply can not control and it is up to Pink Light Sprite to help him with his problem. Follow Hamilton as he takes this exciting journey down the forest path. He will meet new friends that he always will remember and he will in-turn help others when they need it.
Article excerpt from the Texas Now Magazine: …In speaking with Ms. Shields recently, one feels the enthusiasm of childhood and finds that her main goal is that her stories are light hearted with an ethical and moral value to them and that they are not to be fearsome for a child. Cleverly researched, the animals for Shields’ stories find themselves in moral and ethical situations that ring true for today’s changing world. Using nature in this way has given Kathleen’s stories a positive edge that is lacking in children’s culture.
Excerpt from Midwest Book Review: …Told in rhyme, with hint vocabulary definitions on select pages, the Hamilton Troll Series is first class educational entertainment for children age 4 and up. The bright and breezy color illustrations make the story come alive.
Excerpt from Midwest Book Review: …the best bit about this book is the narrative of rhyme which is sophisticated, child oriented and has good rhythm. I can imagine reading this to my granddaughter at quite a pace, and keeping her interest with the words and the fine detail in the pictures.
