C A HartnellTake a blast to the past in author C.A. Hartnell's riveting, Fall-filled, fast-paced, historical-fiction chapter book, Ferocious Fall: Our Wild Weather Escapes, for readers eight and up. It's the third volume in a four book series, The 1950s Adventurs of Pete and Carol Ann, inspired by real cool places to visit during the Fall or anytime and actual events from Hartnell's childhood. The author spent her grammer school years during the 1950s at Cherrylee School in El Monte, Southern California, home of American Legion Stadium where rock 'n' roll and "hopped up" hot rods thrived and multiplied. She's the owner of Hawk's Ride, a 1937 Ford Slantback hot rod with a chopped-top and painted flames. Hartnell is a board member of Big Hearts for Little Hearts Loma Linda Guild at Loma Linda University Children's Hospital in Loma Linda, California, and has authored six activity books for them. She's written articles for the Guild's newsletter and the hospital's in-house newspaper, TODAY.
