What's New?
What's coming next from author, J. Robert Whittle?
Copies of Whittle's popular family-style books are now found in scores of North American school libraries and many schools are actually using them as teaching aids (Social Studies/English Lit/History) in their classrooms. We're told that BC Universities and Colleges and many schools in the USA and Canada have listed Lizzie: Lethal Innocence as suggested reading for English Lit. classes and/or Accelerated Reading Classes (AR) and the Victoria Chronicles are used in Canadian and US high school history classes.
Teachers refer to this author's historical novels as "painless history" because children (and adults) are learning so much about the past while enjoying a great read!! Check with your local Public Library or School Librarian. Ask them to order our family-friendly books and please tell your friends about this website. The authors appreciate your support - without which these books would not be possible.
