Aubrey and the New Fox

Aubrey is a spirited young fox kit whose days in Willowwood Forest are filled with playful adventures - chasing butterflies, learning to hunt, and soaking in her parents' warm stories. But her perfect world shifts dramatically when her parents announce that she will soon have a baby brother. Faced with the uncertainty of sharing her parents' attention and the fear of change, Aubrey wrestles with mixed emotions, but her initial apprehension gives way to a cautious curiosity, and she tentatively steps into her new role as big sister.

As Rowan grows, Aubrey discovers that teaching him the fox ways - how to hide in the brambles, jump, and navigate the forest's sounds - becomes an unexpected adventure of its own. Aubrey learns that love can expand rather than diminish. Her journey from uncertainty to pride, as she watches Rowan transform from a fragile kit into a playful companion, shows that sometimes the biggest gifts come wrapped in the smallest surprises.

From an early age, Geraldo wanted to be an Architect, studying the trade in High School and in College, but the Navy had other plans. During his second enlistment he was assigned to teach electronics at the Naval Training Center, San Diego. This turning point redirected him to a career in teaching which has lasted the past 41 years. He has taught in the Navy, College, Corporate America, and High School.

Geraldo began writing training material while serving and teaching in the Navy, receiving the Meritorious Unit Citation for his participation in curriculum development. He wrote technical manuals and computer courses for computer training companies and co-authored user manuals for the computer industry. He has written the course materials and textbooks for the High School classes that he has taught over the past 18 years.

As he approaches retirement form over four decades of teaching, he has begun transitioning to being a semi-retired Author. He has turned his focus from writing training materials to writing short stories and novels.
