CHAPEL HILL, N.C. - Oct. 28, 2014 - PRLog -- Award-winning author Julie Krantz's newest children's books are free on Kindle October 29 - Nov. 2, 2014.  Bittersweet, STELLA BELLAROSA is about two NYC teens who flee Little Italy after stealing a substitute teacher's wallet. Humorous, ISABEL PLUM: Ichthyologist is about one little diva about to implode.

STELLA BELLAROSA: Tales of an Aspiring Teenage Superhero (YA/MG Novel, ages 8 - 14, Common Core Objectives: Immigration, Poverty, City Life, 1960's, Discrimination)

A wallet, a thief, and a brilliant plan--what can possibly go wrong?

At least that’s what Stella thinks when she urges Pin Pin to return the stolen wallet—until she gets caught with the goods, that is.  That’s when all heaven, hell and whatever’s-in-between breaks loose, forcing the BFFs to hit the road.

Tag along with Stella and Pin Pin as they ditch Little Italy for midtown Manhattan—all the while battling archrival Angie Como for the title to SOHO’s Annual Food Drive, their ticket to Regis Academy, a posh high school for girls, hidden far, far away in the Catskills. Oh-la-la, for a chance to leave home—for good!

Problem is... the road isn’t much safer than home, especially when the runaways attract the attention of police, museum officials and—worst of all—Stella’s unforgiving father. Also pitted against their extravagant dreams is the threat of Pin Pin and her family’s deportation, including baby sister, Audrey, who lies at the heart of this quirky coming-of-age novel—STELLA BELLAROSA, a serious MG with a funny-bone.

ISABEL PLUM: Ichthyologist (Picture Book, Ages 3 - 8, humorous. Common Core Objectives: early/beginner reader, vocabulary-building, context clues, reading comprehension, inference)

A girl, a fish, and one little wish . . . .

Isabel Plum likes having her way.  And--right here, right now--that means getting a cute and cuddly puppy.  There's only one problem--Isabel is allergic.  See what happens when Isabel's disappointment leads to an important discovery--one the single-minded heroine least expects!
