The Indie Reader review says: “The Werewolf Apocalypse is a cute and entertaining take on Little Red Riding Hood and enjoyable by young readers.”
A nice job giving a familiar classic a new twist. The bits of humor scattered throughout add to the story’s appeal. The important message about believing in oneself is subtle but clear, and one that a young audience is sure to appreciate. –CS Editor
“New Yorkers are transforming into weird creatures, and my grandma is a killer werewolf!”
In this modern fantasy adaptation of Little Red Riding Hood, Red Ryding is a thirteen-year-old girl who is haunted by demons and werewolves. Powerful magic is in her blood, but she doesn’t want anything to do with it. Red lost her parents because of magic, so now she has to live in New York with her grandmother, who is a descendant of an ancient sorceress who lived in the time of Camelot. Her grandmother is trying to encourage Red to accept her magical powers to fight evil creatures, but Red is afraid to use magic, believing it will draw attention and risk the lives of those she cares about. Unfortunately, Red Ryding soon finds herself in the midst of a werewolf apocalypse. She realizes that she has to accept who she is, abolish her fear, and embrace her powers, or else the world will fall into darkness and chaos and become the Era of the Werewolf.

"Imagine wondrous things guides my art, stories, and music. I love to create characters that range from the whimsical to the anamorphic goofballs, to the awesomely abnormal humans. I write and illustrate children's books including a picture book series for ages 5 to 12 called 'A Horse Valley Adventure'. 'Max's Day at School' is my latest and third book of the series.
I also have a 'Horse Valley Toons' comic strip on my website that follows the comical adventures of my Horse Valley crew, Max, Jack, Lax, Donkey, and the young mischievous Twiddle and Dwiddle.
My home is in Southern California with a playful yellow lutino budgie named Peeps that is always willing to help me when I get stuck on a project. Visit my website at LMABOOKS.COM for more about my books, and while there also enjoy my cartoons, artwork, videos, and some of my jazz and classical piano music."
