Pioneering Author

Children’s Past Lives is the first non-academic book to explore the phenomenon of children’s spontaneous past life memories.  It tells Carol’s story of how her own children’s past life memories led her to do research.  It also includes a guidebook for parents, to teach them how to recognize and respond when their children have these memories.  Her research presents reincarnation as a practical reality in our lives and within our families.

Return from Heaven expands the research to cases of reincarnation within the same family. The true stories are emotionally charged because they document families as they discovered that a deceased family member has returned in a new body as a child in the family. It is a truly miraculous discovery for them.

Pennsylvania Home

Carol lives with her husband, Steve, in Media, Pennsylvania, near Philadelphia.  Her two children, Sarah and Chase, whose stories are told in Children’s Past Lives, are now grown.
