Two more books in my July reading list. This time, they are children’s book from Indie authors Timothy Jordan and Sylvia Patience.
The Toothless Fairy
Humor, Children’s Fiction
Pub Date 01 Aug 2015
Description
Every parent knows the problem – Halloween is over, but the issue of how to handle too much candy has just begun. The question of what to do with an excess of sweets each November 1 provided the inspiration for the new children’s picture book “The Toothless Fairy.” Conceived by Skeeter Buck and written by Timothy Jordan, the story allows parents and caregivers to explore with their children feelings of being different, the importance of friendship, how to share and care, and even how to create a new family tradition, all while reveling in the magic of Halloween.
Toto’s Tale and True Chronicle of Oz
Middle Grade, Children’s Fiction
Pub Date 26 Oct 2015
Description
In this new version of the Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Dorothy’s little dog, Toto, is the narrator. Readers will follow Toto as he sets out on his own and meets Dorothy when she arrives in Kansas on an orphan train. Toto’s Tale evokes the smells and sounds of Oz. We learn of his frustration at being the only one who can’t talk, and discover, along with Toto, what request he wants to make of the Wizard. Although written for children ages seven to twelve, Toto’s Tale is also enjoyed by Oz enthusiasts and dog lovers of all ages.
