Review
Plant Life Takes on a Whole New Literary Magic It's part entertainment, part mystery, part fantasy and educational to boot! That's the best way to describe a new book by one of Essex County's newest authors and successful entrepreneurs, Shelley Awad. The Greenhouse Kids, Dan Delion's Secret is the story of a young boy who sets out hunting bugs but discovers a secret that's far too big to keep to himself. So he shares it with his friends, Holly Hocks, Foxy Gloves and Johnny Jump-Ups. The author is a Windsor native. A journalism graduate of St. Clair Collegge, Shelley is married to Mitch and is the mother of a 26 year old son, Aaron, who's completing his PhD in chemistry at the University of Windsor. The family lives in Tecumseh. The finished product, with its colorful illustration by Constance Rose Zonta of Windsor, is published by the Borealis Press of Ottawa and has been available since the beginning of June. The main kids in the book are named after different plants and take on the same traits, like Dan Delion "growing like a weed". The heroes have special powers. They're able to see and visit a greenhouse where they meet Lucinda the Ladybug who doles out valuable life lessons. Through Lucinda and her emphasis on diet, hard work and attitude, Dan, Holly, Foxy and Johnny are able to achieve some of their dreams. --Windsor Life Magazine, August/Sept 2009
