The Magic Continues with Book Launch News at Books by Rose!

Celebrating Friends!

Who’s ready for some more fun with my book launch?

Today, I’ll share paragraph #4 on the back of my book.

Buckle up for a whimsical-filled ride with cherished friendships that transcend time!

Hmm, friendships? So there are more characters in this book?

Question of the Day

Who Do You Think Maggie, Millie, and Merrie Will Meet In This Story?

I can assure you, there are many friends in this book for every reader to enjoy. In fact, there are at least ten other characters. Not all of them have strong dialogues, but they still add value to the story. 🤗

I can’t wait for you to read about them! ❤️

Extra Bonus News

These next two authors have some wonderful books and I’ve enjoyed them all.

Rebecca Lyndsey is not only an author, she is an artist and a full-time teacher, too!

About the author

Rebecca Lyndsey is a children’s book author, illustrator and teacher who was born in and still lives in the mountains of West Virginia with her wonderful husband and their two very spoiled cats.

Sandra Bennett

Author Sandra Bennett lives in Australia and writes wonderful stories!

About the author

Sandra Bennett has been writing children’s stories for as long as she can remember. Right from her childhood in the early 1970’s Sandra used her imagination to develop adventure stories from where she lived in the southern suburbs of Sydney, to now where she lives with her family on a tranquil little property just outside of Canberra. As a little girl she always dreamed of becoming a teacher and sharing her stories with the children in her classes to encourage and improve literacy skills. Sandra believes Literacy skills are the building blocks to all further education. Once you can read you can learn anything and grow to become whatever your dreams desire.

Sandra enjoys writing children’s stories that will entice even the most reluctant reader to pick up a book and laugh so much they will not want to put it down. Her children’s books are for ages 4-10, early readers, reluctant reader and ESL students. They are perfect to read aloud at home with the entire family.

Her first book Gingerbread Aliens has achieved that objective and been selected for use in the 2013 Australian National Eisteddfod under 10 years Championship Division of Speech and Drama.

Sandra has taken not only her 25 years of experience as a classroom teacher but also as a mum to three boys and now writes a weekly blog titled Raising Awesome Readers, it can be found at http://gingerbreadaliens.blogspot.com.au/ or on her website http://sandrabennettauthor.com/

Gingerbread Aliens is the first in a series of five planned books. Book 2 Alien Shenanigans should be released later this year
