Charleston, SC, Oct. 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Johnnie is a young boy with a full life. He has things he likes to do, complex relationships, and a thirst for adventure.

In The Amaryllis Picotee, readers meet Johnnie as a boy and watch his transformation into John, a man, through the action-packed pages of the book.

At the beginning of the story, Johnnie narrates some of the key moments of his life growing up, which in turn provides readers an early understanding as to who he is and what preliminarily shaped his outlook on life.

Following suit, Johnnie takes the readers on an immersive journey from his home to the home of an aunt in Florida. Joined by kindly gentleman Mr. Jesup, Johnnie embarks on a journey of self-discovery.

"[I really tried to infuse themes like] "coming of age” where the encountering of situations that present themselves to the main character involves both good and bad aspects in what is experienced; [a sort of] moral lessons in living,” said the author.

The Amaryllis Picotee is available for purchase online at Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble.com.
