Publisher's Synopsis
In the first book of the series called: "Charlie the Great White Horse and the Story of the Magic Jingle Bells." A constant daydreaming, red haired boy Louis Parks, and his friends who live in Centerville, in the heart of Indiana in the early 1900's, became town heroes by saving Christmas one year with the help of a very special horse named "Charlie the Barnyard Horse." Everyone in town thought that Ole' Charlie was just an old working carthorse who delivers the ice for the town-folks in the wintertime, but that ended up being the very farthest thing from the real truth. Well it turned out that "Charlie the Horse" was no ordinary horse after all. In fact he is one of the last of his kind of horses that once roamed the face of the earth, who are called "Arions" or "Semi-Immortal Horses" who were bred, and taken care of by the "Ancients" who have come to live out their last days on earth, in Centerville. Santa Claus was in need of a replacement for Rudolf the Red Nosed reindeer who is soon to retire. With the help of Santa Claus, Mr. Beamer, Louis, and his boyhood friends, and mostly with the help of string of magic jingle bells, "Charlie the Great White Horse" was magically reborn on Christmas Eve, saving the future of Christmas, for all the children of the world. In the second book called: "Charlie the Great White Horse and the Journey to the North Pole," little Louis and his friends again had a calling (that was destiny) to save Christmas once again. Louis with his friends Hot Tamale Molly, and Chug Martin, (with the help of Mr. Beamer), planned a long and very dangerous trip to the North Pole to stop the evil Squint-Eye Pete, and Black Jack Tilly from forever taking over and running Santa's Village. By luck Black Jack and Squint-Eye, had created evil presents for all the children of the world to play with, and cornered the toy market in the process. Each toy, the children played with, had the power to steal the creativity, joy, and minds of its users. Louis saved Christmas, through his never-ending courage, and willpower but mostly, it was because of his unbreakable love for his best friend, "Charlie the Horse." The prequel for this series is now complete for this trilogy: The Journey to Northumberland and the Rise of the Undertoads. Look for that book on Amazon.com as well.
