Is Your Child Interested in Martial Arts?

Is your son or daughter interested in martial arts? Other cultures? Camping?

 Give your child a taste through my latest release in the missionary kid series (ages 8+).

Baxter and the Ultimate Challenge takes you and your child to fictional Masters Martial Arts Camp in Thailand where nine-year-old Baxter is determined to win the competition on Friday of camp week.

After all, he’s trained since he was a little kid. Dad, Mom, and brother Billy have all coached him in the sport. And they’ve all won tournaments, except for Baxter. Now it’s his turn to shine. Nothing will stand in his way. Or so he thinks . . .

Until a girl shows up at Masters Martial Arts Camp in Thailand where his family serves as missionaries. A bully set on distracting Baxter from his number one goal: take home a first place trophy along with a cash prize.

Baxter’s in for the struggle of his life when he comes face to face with what a winner really looks like. He soon discovers more than one challenge awaits. 


The ultimate challenge.



Includes a Special Features section at the end with more info about Thailand, martial arts, questions for family discussion, and a word from the author.
