Book Description
About the Book Julie's Seed was inspired by the life and antics of our daughter, Julie. She was a lover of nature, even as a small child, preferring to play with bugs and creatures. Watching this child grow convinced me to write a story. Julie even contributed much of the original artwork in the book, as did other family ambers. For 25-30 years, Julie's Seed sat quietly in a file cabinet. Through the encouragement of both wife, Mary, and daughter, Julie, it has now emerged as a published book!
