Discover the Next Generation of Christian Storytellers…
Featuring A.A. Rollins
A.A. Rollins grew up with her hands in soil and head in the clouds, and is the proud best friend of not one, but two hummingbirds! Growing up with a disability means she knows what it’s like to feel alone and misunderstood, so she writes stories that are a safe haven for kids like her, incorporating witty humor to showcase the positives in life. A.A. can be found reading, bingeing a detective show, drinking tea, caring for her roses, or training her service dog, Harley. She’s always looking for another opportunity to make someone smile!
About Her Short Story
Malcolm, a merboy, has grown up dreaming of becoming a Handyman like his father, who works for the king. However, his love for plants means he might become a Gardener, which would make him an outcast in Lanori. But not being one means losing his passion. When he accidentally injures Lanori’s primary power source, a coral tree, he is faced with accepting that he is a Gardener so he can save the tree, or risk being the cause of Lanori’s downfall.
