The Butterfly Dragon
Books
The book that started it all. The first half of this book was first published online in June of 2012 after I'd worked on it for about two months on my personal blog for viewer feedback (of which I got none) but I did get a lot of reads.
Two little girls, one from the East and the other from the West. One with a talent for fashion design and the other a scientific genius. One, a newcomer from the distant land of China and the other severely lacking in confidence and self esteem. The gifts that these two can share with one another will change their lives and may in turn save the world.

Nothing could be better for the future of Tynan And Associates except for the one thing that keeps both Alicia and Norler awake at night.
