What If... Zombies Were Nice: Chocolate and Oranges

By S. Elizabeth

The author and illustrator, of What if...ZOMBIES Were Nice, is releasing each book as a chapter ultimately building toward a grand finale. The books are written for the youth using adolescent grunge language and humor. Short politics and actual science experiments are the nucleus within the pages of each book.
Chocolate and Oranges is the first chapter of What ifZOMBIES Were Nice. In this chapter you will find that The Great Panic Po of 2020 was something no one was ever prepared for.
Zombies that didn't turn into a big black puddle of goop were taken to a secret location, by the military, where the trials of modification took place. Many years passed, and the secret decision for 'reintegration' occurred. The first zombie family released, into living society was placed in Texas, where a freaky friendship developed between a zombie boy and two bored eccentric children. As the trio's bond gets stronger, they make simple discoveries about themselves and learn more about The Great Panic Po of 2020.
Stink, rot, and science string them together as they manage to find a formula that might keep their friend from falling apart!

S. Elizabeth

S. Elizabeth lives down in the hot, piney woods of East Texas. She is a designer of interiors, photographer, illustrator, writer and publisher with more than two decades of experience. Over the years, her entire career has levitated on the canopy of art, in general. When she is not working she is spending a hefty portion of her time guiding her two boys, through the pages of life with much humor and (patience ?). Most recently, her family experiences and artistry have taken her, in a step, towards the quirky and twisted world of story telling, for the unusual adolescent. Her creative sense of humor and love for science will encourage children to be themselves no matter what others might think of them, and at the same time breed a curious fantasy into the matrix of their minds.

Thank you God, for Zane and Cohen, if it were not for them I would not have a story to write. My story monkeys have taught me to think like a kid again and to let my imagination have no boundary.

So, if you have any complaints… . you can blame them!

You are so special and I love you both.

My love David, who managed life around us while I devoted my time to write a book. He listened to me read a million times and gave me treasured advice along the way. What can I say about a man who knows how deranged I am, yet still goes to bed with me . . . . .lights off!

LaPoynor Elementary for editing my first draft, exploring science with me, and engaging the children into a writer’s world.

If you can dream it, you can achieve it!

Rita Curington, my high school English teacher, for inspiration and professional guidance.

Thank you.

Thank you Chad Hardgrave for bringing life to Mr. Wickel.

I miss you terribly.
