Sheila's Books

Amir’s Big Catch

Amir’s Big Catch is a book for children of all ages.

Amir lives by a lake and his dream is to catch a fish – but he can’t do it alone! Join Amir in this adventure as he meets some friends who can help him along the way.

Amir’s Big Catch is Sheila’s first children’s book. It earned the Midwest Independent Publishing Association (MIPA) Golden Book Award! This book was inspired by a fishing adventure she shared with her friend Amir on Lake Brandt in North Carolina. It was a day of firsts—his first visit to the lake, his first fishing pole, and his first cast as a fisherman. It was a wonderful memory for both, and Sheila was honored to experience it through Amir’s eyes.

This fun story is chock-full of alliterations and illustrations to capture the attention and ignite the imagination of the children who read it. Kids are spellbound by the fun illustrations. This makes a great present for kids and grandkids alike.

Sheila has read this book to hundreds of children in schools and other venues. She is available to read to YOUR group. Contact her today!

The Green Pepper Project
Coming Soon!

The Green Pepper Project is about investing in your future, about creating your personal development plan, and about making your life what you want it to be – independent from what your employer, your friend, or even your mother thinks is best for you!

The Green Pepper Project is about the seeds of potential in YOU that are waiting be planted, watered, nurtured, and grown. Think of it like this: there are about 153 seeds (yeah, I counted them) in a green pepper. If you planted, watered, and nurtured those 153 seeds, how many more green peppers do you think you would have? Likewise, if you selected just a few seeds of knowledge, skill, and character and tended them in your own life, what do you think would happen?

And then, if you helped others plant, water, and nurture seeds in their lives…just think of the amazing capabilities we could all have…. Oh, the incredible possibilities!
