Madylan of Manhattan: Amazing Adventures
Madylan of Manhattan: Amazing Adventures (Short stories)
Madylan of Manhattan, Amazing Adventures, is a collection of short stories that capture the joy, vitality, and mystery of a range of escapades, as experienced by young Madylan, resident of Manhattan, New York City. The tales take place in and around New York City, Virginia, Kennebunkport, Maine, and South Korea.
Join young Madylan in these fanciful tales as she ponders what might dwell in a parallel underground New York, embarks on wild adventures as a self-proclaimed ‘evil’ princess during a Manhattan day outing, relates the scary tale of banned pizza in New York, follows the zany antics of a lost toy helped by a chatty Easter Bunny scout in Virginia, visits with summer residents of coastal Maine caught up in an ageless conflict between merfolk and pirates, and falls in with a dreamscape mystery of a daring young traveler coping with all manner of cryptic characters, good, bad, and indifferent, in the far away land of historic Korea. Madylan of Manhattan, Amazing Adventures, is a set of rollicking tales for all ages.
