"Children of Plains Estates"

Children of Plains Estates is the first volume of the Series. We are introduced to the main characters which include the Walkers, Humphries, McKnights, and the Colberts.

No other juvenile fiction book confronts racial and cultural stereotypes, racism, alcoholism, adoption, baptism and other issues that confront families throughout the world.

Mr. Bates is released from jail after serving six months for child molestation. What lies ahead for his son and family after both the church and his peers find out Alan’s secret? Cuban refuge Alejandro Hernandez’s son, Alfredo, has been molested by a bishop in the Catholic Church. Can his family survive their journey and reclaim their faith? American-born Jesus Ramirez applies for a position at Shelton’s. He is embarrassed when the manager implies that he is an illegal alien in front of listening customers. Will Jesus walk out of the interview or prove he is qualified for the job? Glen is out of the “slow” class, but the abandonment by his father is still painful. Glen reaches out to his father with a birthday card. Will Glen's father finally have room for him in his heart?


"Children of Plains Estates": Silent Tears

"Children of Plains Estates" Silent Tears is the third book of the series. Its key plot is the bullying trial after Alan Bates commits suicide. Who is responsible? The boys attorney will put on trial, Robert Bates, the dad that molested him. Alan's mother who failed to protect him, the school principle, and Alan himself. A resident of Plains Estates will die. Will it be Toni Colbert, who has been diagnosed with breast cancer, Rita Watkins, that is living with sickle cell anemia, Stacey Worthington, who contracted AIDS from a blood transfusion, or another resident.

Ms. Milner's last release the "Rejuvenation of the Church: Meeting the Needs of our Youth Guide and Workbook:

Author Claudette Milner releases her first Christian work. "The Rejuvenation of the Church":Meeting the Needs of our Youth is a series of workshops designed for youth ministers and youth workers to aid youth in building their relationship with Christ and beginning their ministry. Workshops include: Identify, Claim and Minister your Gifts, Listening to God, Building a Relationship with God, What IF and two parent workshops.

In an earlier interview Ms. Milner spoke about retaining the rights to her books. My purpose in writing this series was to give a voice to all children. The series is timeless. Children are still dealing with issues of alcoholism, drugs, divorce, racism, premarital sex,bullying, education and abandonment by one or both parents. I believe if we are able to discuss these issues then we can open the dialogue.

Ms. Milner's next release will be "Children Of Plains Estates":Hidden Truths. She is on target for an early fall release 2015. She will complete "Children of Plains Estates": The Final Chapter in 2015.
