    About this ebook

    Sophie is scared. A big storm is blowing through her town, and the thunder is rattling the house. Her parents are at a baseball tournament with her older brother, and Sophie is alone with her Nana. The lightning and thunder are making it hard for Nana to hear the news. With a pop, sizzle, and static they hear that the local zoo has experienced a power outage and the animals are pouring into the streets. Suddenly, a report blurts outs that an alligator is missing, and headed towards Sophie’s Street! What will make Sophie overcome her fear and battle the alligator before he eats the whole city.

    Lizette Vega

    Lizette was born in Bronx, New York, and moved to California with her family when she was eight. Lizette grew up as an overweight child and underwent years of bullying and considered suicide. As an escape, she found her love for reading and enjoyed entering magical worlds that allowed her to leave behind her uncomfortable environment. As a teenager, a wise woman from her church took her under her wing and taught her one phrase to live by, “You can learn something from anyone – even if it’s how not to be,” and Lizette’s mindset changed. Every person benefited her life, and everyone has a story to tell. During that time, she read her Bible and became a Christian. A fondness for theology inspired her to obtain a Bachelor of Arts degree in Christian Ministries from The Master’s College. She spent several years taking courses in Journalism and tried to publish fiction stories and non-fiction; however, publishing rejection led her to leave her love of writing and continue to earn a living investigating mortgage fraud and underwriting residential loans. Even so, the bug for writing continued to burrow a hole in her heart. After decades in the mortgage business, she received a layoff notice and made the final decision to pursue her love for storytelling and non-fiction writing with a purpose. Lizette lives in the Los Angeles area with her family and enjoys, photography, crafts, baking, traveling, playing with her sister’s puppy, and of course reading.
