The Girl Whose Frown Shook the Ground by Melody Trowell
Within these pages is a tale that before now was not to be told. But, I have been given permission to share it with you now, for now is the time when the world needs it most. Once upon a time, there lived a little girl who got everything she wanted. Even so, she was not happy. Many tried in vain to appease her, but their failed attempts only fueled her anger. And when she got angry, which was often, she frowned. This frown was no ordinary frown—it carried with it such power that it shook the world around her. Destruction followed her everywhere she went. Still, amidst such hopelessness lies Help. The question here remains would the girl accept it? Open these pages to discover for yourself the power of Truth, magic of wonder, and life of enchantment.
This book features gold foil on the cover!

About the Illustrator
My inspiration comes from long walks, rambling prayers, starry skies, and dreamy fairy tales. I enjoy a quiet life with my husband and two daughters, in a house full of treasured books and bright colors. A sleek, black cat and a silly brown bird dog keep me company each day while I paint.
