About Andi Unexpected
Twelve-year-old Andora ‘Andi’ Boggs and her fourteen-year-old sister Bethany move to rural Ohio to live with their eccentric twenty-something aunt after the sudden death of their parents. While dealing with her grief, Andi discovers proof of another Andora Boggs in the family tree whose existence was hidden in a Depression-era trunk in the attic. With help from her new friend and neighbor, Colin Carter, Andi is determined to find out who this first Andora was and what happened to her.

The Reviews Are Coming In! (The one from Emma is my favorite!)
“I really loved ‘Andi Unexpected’ and I recommend it to anybody who’s in the mood for a leave-me-alone-I-want-to-finish-this-book type book. I really hope it’s a series so I get to find out what happens to Andi in the future. I have a feeling Colin and Andi aren’t just going to turn out to be the sit-still-at-home type of people.”
-Emma, 10-year-old reviewer
“Flower weaves in some history and also shines a light on the emotional difficulties the two recently orphaned girls experience… Characterizations… stand out as nicely individualistic… Some life-threatening suspense highlights the book’s climax, and a small smattering of religion keeps the story appropriate for a Christian audience. A fun little detective story with some simple life lessons.”
– Kirkus Reviews
“Flower creates a cast of memorable characters and a colorful, historically detailed setting. Though a somewhat sinister foe threatens to derail Andi’s investigation, she proves a resourceful sleuth. Throughout, the realistic but warm rapport between the sisters and their aunt is the tent pole for a story about starting anew while remembering the past.” –Publishers Weekly
The Hooligan Bears seem to be a special series. Of course, love the older series like Nancy Drew mysteries and also some authors like Randy Alcorn have great graphic novel series.
