Update

It has been a long time since my last post. This is down to the fact that I have been carrying out a re-working of my story-'Danger! Do Not Read!'. I have basically rewritten the story and produced 16 new illustrations as well as some illuminated lettering as well.
The resulting work has been sent off to publishers so I have now got my fingers crossed that at least one of them will offer to publish my book. As this has been offered to publishers I don't feel it would be prudent to post anything on this blog- for now.
However I do intend to publish some of my older illustrations which, if my current work is accepted, would no longer be relevant to my written work.

Here is the beast with many tentacles which erupts from the river in my story- Danger! Do not read!- from the book of the same name.

Ewords for kids

Here is a new website which my book is listed on. You can find that and many other great kids books on this site.

There’s a new kid in town with a website especially for listings of children’s books. The G-rated Linkchildren’s book directory features both print and ebooks.

If you’re looking for a good place to find Kindle or eBooks to download, this is the place. Authors love to post there because they are allowed to put a good deal of information in their posts, where other sites limit book information.

This site even has book trailers to watch. It’s more fun to see and hear what the book is all about, rather than just read the words, don’t you think?

Within the book listing, you can find out the age appropriateness of the books, as well as links to take you to a site to purchase the print or ebook.

The site even has free coloring book pages for your children to enjoy. While they are new, they have expansion ideas ready to fulfill.

• You can find all of the above and more at www.ewords4kids.com.

If you’re a new children’s book author without any reviews, wanting to promote your book and offer it to children all over the world, you might be interested in this new site, www.ewords4kids.com.

The children’s book directory allows you to list your book for free. Included in your free listing is your photo, the book cover image, book description, a book trailer, and link to where to buy your book. Now that’s a lot to offer for free!

They don’t make you jump through hoops by not allowing you to post if your book isn’t within a specific price range, or you must have a certain number of reviews. No, this G-rated site is open to new authors trying to get their books noticed.

If you are interested in placing your book in a prominent position for a specific time frame, ewords4kids offers several options. Features do require a fee, but they are extending an introductory price range at this time, so you’ll want to check out the features area for sure.

As a teacher, you know the importance and value of creating an interest in reading at an early age. Have your heard about the new website which caters to only children’s books?

It’s a place where authors can list their books along with their movie trailers. By visiting www.ewords4kids.com you’ll be able to watch and hear about new books geared especially for your specific age group of interest. It’s a one stop book directory.

Of course, you’ll read about the description of the book and see the book cover image, but watching trailers authors have created adds so much more to help you decide which books you would like to purchase for your classroom or library.

A few stats:

• The performance advantage among students whose parents read to them in their early school years is evident regardless of the family’s socio-economic background.

• Children learn an average of 4,000 to 12,000 new words each year as a result of book reading. Scholastic: Classroom Libraries Work!

I encourage you to visit the site at www.ewords4kids.com to see for yourself the interesting listings of books for your specific age group.
