More About Rana Eclipso Rising

As a green frog, Rana was living a wonderful life in the bog. But in the middle of the concert one night, a human girl caught him, dumped him into a frog tank, and took him home. He was to be part of her solar eclipse night noise science experiment. Being sad—and believing he would never be free—Rana made no noise at all. With the eclipse just days away would Rana’s silence ruin her experiment?  Or would “She” get an “A”?

More About Liz Bockleman

Liz Bockelman grew up in the small town of Rochelle, Illinois in times when childhood was idyllic and faith was the center of most people’s universe. Inspired by the raucus bedtime stories her mother often told, Liz wrote and told stories throughout her early years. In 2017, LIz began independently publishing a few of her holiday stories, all told in rhyme, in the American Holiday Series. These stories are filled with flawed characters who stumble through plots full of twists and turns—but then things work out, the good guys win, and a lesson is learned. Because readers find interesting information about the book’s story topic in both the front and back pages of her books, Liz now refers to her titles as “Fact ‘N Fiction books. “Rana Eclipso Rising, A Total Eclipse of the Sun Story,” her latest title, will be the first title in Liz’s new Learning with Picture Book program. This program will supply elementary teachers, K-5, with Fact ‘N Fiction books for the classroom. “What hasn’t changed,” Liz says, “is that I hope my stories entertain and inspire you!”
