Book excerpt: The second book in the trilogy: Charlie the Great White Horse and the Journey to the North Pole. The three protagonists that gave Charlie so much trouble in the first book are back again, and up to no good. Charlie has taken ill at the North Pole because the magic that lies within the string of "Magic Jingle Bells" has been broken, and now Christmas might be lost forever. The, "The "Missouri Rats" and Squint-Eye Pete are no good crooks who have devised a sinister plan, take over the daily operations of Santa's Village from Charlie and steal Christmas's future, from all the children of the world. Louis, Chug, and Hot Tamale Molly (a neighborhood girl) have been by fate, decreed to be the saviors of the future of Christmas, and have been given the daunting task of returning the magic back into the string of "Magic Jingle Bells". The three brave friends must embark on a long, and very dangerous trek, to the North Pole to reach Santa's Village before Christmas Eve, before the dwindling magic that is keeping Charlie alive, is no more. The three young adventurers with help from "Jupiter the Show Horse" and his best friend Apollo, get help from the strangest of characters throughout their arduous journey, with each giving all the help they can to save Christmas, but mostly they all try to give little Louis the courage that he will need to succeed, at the dramatic and climatic ending. 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.
