Local Author Donates Proceeds of Book to Benefit S4EA SPORTS for Exceptional Athletes (S4EA) is pleased to announce that R.L. Mesler, author of the new childrens book 'Jayben Treat : And the Burglar of Barmoth'. will donate 100% of his royalties received from ALL March 2008 sales to S4EA. The author is one of the original supporters of S4EA. Amazon.com has the following review: "Written in a Sherlock Holmes style of adventure and mystery, this book will keep you spell bound until the very last minute. It is the story of ten-year-old Jayben Treat , who with his friends, accidentally discover that a black curse has been placed on their school of magic. Unsure of whom they can trust to tell about this find, they set out on their own to prevent an unknown catastrophe from taking place. Filled with self-doubt and uncertainty, they eventually gain the confidence to use their untested and awkward magical abilities to overcome obstacles and entrapment's set before them. Despite setbacks, the characters pursue a number of suspects through various locations, leading to a twist ending that reverses what the characters have been led to believe. What they also uncover in the process is far more revealing about themselves and their destinies." For more information about buying this book, visit http://jayben-treat.tripod.com.
