About Sour Apples: A Novel For Those Who Hate to Read
Imagine, if you will, an eleven-year-old boy with an imagination so powerful that he uses it like others would use a compass. Our hero, Jimmy Hamilton, loses his fort on three separate occasions all in the span of one summer. He must battle both his wits and unwanted squatters. He comes to discover each new unwanted tenant proves more difficult to evict than the last. His plans have a modicum of success but each come with unintended consequences.
Add to the mix of that imagination and his antics to win back his fort, the prettiest girl his age, a baseball diamond, a groundhog, a snapping turtle, twins, and the town vagrant and Jimmy soon finds his summer adventure is more than he bargained for.
Sour Apples is a humorous young adult adventure of a very clever young boy who thinks he can outwit the best of them. His antics are riveting and could one day make Jimmy a legend. Paul Jantzen has masterfully written his debut novel, a tale of mischief and antics that will grab the reader from the very first page.
Continue what you just started, and join Jimmy Hamilton in navigating his summer of adventure.

Paul loves captivating his audiences with his imagination and sense of humor. He took up filmmaking in college and his first short film, The Leopard Frog, debuted on the USA network in 1991. He then took up writing, a more budget favorable medium. Though he enjoys a good novel here and there, he was never big on reading so he wrote a book instead. Sour Apples is his award winning, debut novel. He has two more in this series of novels for those who hate to read soon to come. Paul finds himself at peace when he has delved his mind into his made-up world. He currently lives in Frederick, MD with his wife Marcia and German Shepherd Ella.
