Norah Desy is a seven-year-old second grader who lives in a small town. She loves having her lemonade stand in her neighbor’s yard with her friends. Local celebrities such as Otis, the town police dog, often make an appearance. Norah is a thrill seeker who loves roller coasters, indoor skydiving, jet skiing, kickboxing and playing tag with her friends. Human friends and the fuzzy kind. She has a dog named Molly, a yellow lab. She also grew up with Wiggles, a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel.
One of Norah’s most favorite pastimes is spending time with her family. She enjoys hiking with her Grampa, Frank, and playing dominoes with her Grammy and Grampy….
