Henrietta is a world-famous architect, and the only mouse in the world who knows what makes a squirrel or a rabbit, a caterpillar or a frog feel at home. A dreamer, a designer, an artist, and a creator, Henrietta works at her drawing board to imagine the perfect home for each of her friends, be they woodland, water, subterranean or winged creatures.

With clever features, like a trapdoor for Mole or a telescope platform for Owl, and the ideal placement, like high in a pine for Squirrel or inside a pear for Caterpillar, Henrietta Mouse's houses are both practical and beautiful--in short, ingenious!

George Mendoza's Need a House? Call Ms. Mouse! is as inspiring today as when it was first published in 1981, and Doris Susan Smith's illustrations of this hard-working female protagonist and her fantastical designs and architectural marvels will captivate young readers.

This uplifting, other-worldly parable about loss and despair, struggle and success, has much to offer our time of challenges and possibility. George Mendoza writes from his heart and his own hard lessons in life. Anne Hillerman, New York Times best-selling author.

A journey into an extraordinary world- both an alternative world and the world of the mind. For seekers of wisdom. JL Powers, author of Broken Circle

After losing a race that he believed would destine him for great things, egocentric Michael's pity party leads to tragedy. Unable to face his own complicity, Michael runs from his fears, and unexpectedly passes through a magical gate into a bizarre world. As Michael passes through one inconceivable test after another, his self-delusion collides with the hard truths of life. Journey of the Spirit Man, Book One of the Spirit Man series, is an exploration of the struggles, limitations, and triumphs of the human spirit.

Five years after the events of Journey of the Spirit Man, Michael Seymour finds himself back in the alternate reality from which he had been so eager to escape, but to where he has recently been desperate to return. But the land he discovers upon arrival has changed. A great war rages, and Michael is revered as a warrior and a killer, although he has no recollection of being either of those things.

Charged with finding and destroying the Annihilator, a force intent on bringing doom to the land of Shoot, Michael must battle the world around him-human, creature, and natural-and trek through desolate wastelands, where he encounters a series of allies and foes. Along the way, he discovers that The Spirit Man's warrior spirit sits at bay within him. But The Spirit Man is not the only spirit lying in wait inside Michael-and he'll need help from them all to save the land he's come to love and honor the fatal sacrifices his friends have made for him.

Vision of the Spirit Man is the second installment in George Mendoza's captivating Spirit Man series.

A vivid fantasy sequel packed with weird gods and another world's fantastic war. Great for fans of Edgar Rice Burroughs, Joel C. Rosenberg's Guardians of the Flame: The Warriors. BOOKLIFE

Michael's Seymour's fantastical journey through the dream world continues when a mysterious figure reaches across the veil between planes and steals his heart-literally. In a race against time, Michael gives chase to this mad god across the ever-twisting realm of Shook in a desperate bid to reclaim his stolen organ before it stops beating for good. As the elaborate game of cat and mouse unfolds across blazing deserts and frigid mountain peaks, Michael must face the possibility that his may be his last adventure unless destiny has something else in mind.

At the age of 15, George Mendoza was diagnosed with a rare, incurable, degenerative eye disease, fundus flavimaculatus. Effects of the disease caused him to lose his central vision, keeping only a gray foggy fringe on the periphery. In the center of his view he sees what he calls kaleidoscope eyes-intense and changing visual images of fiery suns, brightly burning eyes and colorful pinwheels. George went on to become a world-class runner and Paralympic contender. In 1980, he broke the world record for blind athletes, running the mile in 4 minutes and 28 seconds. In the early 1990's, he began to paint full-time. Ironically, Mendoza's paintings spring from the loss of his eyesight and a very special vision that took its place. Mendoza works full time as a writer and an artist. Currently, his exhibition Colors of the Wind is a national Smithsonian affiliates traveling art exhibit. He lives in Las Cruces, New Mexico, and is founder and president of the Wise Tree Foundation, Inc., a nonprofit corporation for the promotion for the arts. He is a motivational speaker and is currently developing a play based on his children's book Colors of the Wind.
