New Release Of Children's Book Series, ‘The Shelby F Squirrel Series’, Teaches Love, Learning And How To Grow Into A Responsible Adult

The highly praised 3 book set by author Eleanor Lawrie uses an entertaining cast of animal characters to engage children in stories filled with adventure, love and laughter.

Children's books can play a major role in shaping the minds and values of young readers. By incorporating life lessons into their storylines, they can help children develop important values that they will need to become responsible adults.

The SHELBY F. SQUIRREL Series is comprised of three books:

BOOK ONE: The Complete Adventures of SHELBY F. SQUIRREL and Friends: (ages 4 to 10)

Shelby is a young Flying Squirrel who lives with his mother and his twin sister, Darby. This delightful series of adventures includes necessary lessons for skills the young ones will need as adults, and endless fun and excitement as Shelby explores the world around him.

Shelby hiccups and stutters when he is upset or nervous, trouble finds him much too easily, and growing up is not what he wants to do. The forest provides him with many good friends, but when their beloved meadow is changed forever they all move to the woods beside a farm, where Shelby meets and learns about farm animals, a whole new experience.

BOOK TWO: The Great FOREST CAPER: A Shelby F. Squirrel Adventure: (ages 8 to 11)

Shelby F. Squirrel and his friends suddenly face mortal danger, and may lose everything! This fast-moving adventure includes Marvin F. Mouse, Molly and Polly Raccoon, the Wise Old Owl, Rosie Robin, and farm animals: Charlie the Horse, Sultan Rooster, and Billy Goat, all part of the close-knit group introduced in 'The Complete Adventures of SHELBY F. SQUIRREL and Friends'. Combining the strength and wisdom of the whole community leads to a meticulously mounted counteroffensive, their only hope against heavy odds.

BOOK THREE: Where is Virginia?: Another Shelby F. Squirrel Adventure: (ages 9 to 12)

Virginia, a young flying squirrel with white fur, moves with her family to The Flying Squirrel Sanctuary to escape bullying. Her desperate parents call for help when she disappears, and Shelby and his friends organize a search party. They thankfully accept the help of Nikita, a dog who uses her tracking skills to pick up Virginia's captor's scent on the road. The animals are able to locate a building in town where they find Virginia has befriended a baby raccoon named Bandit, and perfected an escape plan. Meanwhile, Nikita's owner, Bryan, drives them to the building. Virginia triggers an alarm during her escape, but she and Bandit manage to get away just as the fire trucks arrive. The story has a happy ending, with new flying squirrel babies, family reunions, a Canine Lacrosse tournament, and the announcement that no more animals will be captured.

“Shelby F. Squirrel was 'born' when a back door at my condo building was left open a little too long....I always thought that some animal would get in and create havoc; amazingly I have no idea why that animal became a flying squirrel,” Lawrie stated. “My goal is to put The SHELBY F. SQUIRREL Series in the hands of readers of all ages, but I must admit that a personal dream is for the Series to be part of school reading. I promise to donate a percentage to a charity that promotes world literacy. I only want SHELBY to be loved for who he is as a baby and who he becomes as an adult. The life lessons are there to be picked up without expanding on them, but simply as part of each rollicking adventure.”

Readers and reviewers have praised the books in the series. One Amazon reviewer said of BOOK ONE, "Though broken up into small nuggets that are perfect for bedtime reading, this collection reminds me of tales by Thornton W. Burgess and Beatrix Potter." Another stated, "I must commend the author on her work. Shelby F. Squirrel is a wonderful creation, who deserves to be enjoyed by kids and grown-ups around the world. An easy 5 stars from me!"

SQUIRREL Series books are available on Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B00VD26BNO. More information is available on Eleanor's website at https://flutesandflyingsquirrels.com.

About Eleanor Lawrie:

Eleanor Lawrie was born in Toronto, studied Commercial Art at Northern Secondary School and worked for a few years as a catalogue layout artist. Drawing and watercolour painting were busy pastimes for many years. Her love of music began at age 7 with piano lessons, and flute became a passion in high school, which led to her career as a professional musician. She was also in demand for several years as a music copyist for the Canadian Music Centre and CBC.

Eventually, symphony jobs (Hamilton Philharmonic and Niagara Symphony), chamber music, and private teaching became her full-time occupation. After retiring, she joined a writers group and soon brought her first SHELBY story to share. The group's enthusiastic response encouraged her to carry on, and SHELBY subsequently led her into everything that followed.

Children's Book Author Dr Nicole Announces Two Books Selected for Children's Literary Classics Seal of Approval

Dr. Nicole is a best-selling author, based in Quebec, who writes children’s books that educate, inspire and teach valuable life lessons

Multi-award winning Canadian children’s book author Dr. Nicole has announced that two of her bilingual children's picture books have received the Children's Literary Classics Seal of Approval. 'Are You Eating My Lunch?/Manges-tu mon lunch?' and 'Strike At Charles’ Farm/Grève à la ferme de Charles' were both selected to receive the Seal of Approval. Children’s Literary Classics, an organization dedicated to furthering excellence in children’s literature, takes great pride in its role to help promote classic children's literature which appeals to youth while educating and encouraging positive values in the impressionable young minds of future generations. The CLC Seal of Approval is a designation reserved for those books which uphold the rigorous criteria set forth by the Children's Literary Classics review committee, a team comprised of individuals with backgrounds in publishing, editing, writing, illustration and graphic design.

In the traditions of Walt Disney and Dr. Seuss, Dr. Nicole breathes life into inanimate objects and wildly entertaining characters that engage children in powerful ways. Through the parent/child interaction, her works develop a love for reading while helping children develop the most important skill of all - critical thinking. If a child can master the art of critical thinking, nearly everything else falls into place. Sadly, critical thinking is not always taught to young children.

"As a family doctor, I often give books to my young patients," Dr. Nicole stated. "For some of them, it is their first book. Some studies say that you should read books to your child even before his first birthday. I am proud to announce that my French popular series of 8 picture books called Félix and Boubou give live to a magical doctor suitcase and nine instruments. I am happy to announce that the first picture book of Jason and Lubdub series Lice Hunting will be soon available in English. The publication of other books on gastroenteritis, chickenpox, otitis, allergies, chickenpox, broken arm and the magical human body should follow."

Dr. Nicole’s books have won numerous other awards. 'Parents for Sale', was a Bronze Medal winner in the 2015 Reader's Favorite International Book Awards Contest in the Children - Animals category. Other awards include 2015 Purple Dragonfly Books Award: Chapters Book: Honorable Mention; 2015 New York Book Festival: Children’s Book: Honorable Mention and the 2015 Hollywood Book Festival: Children’s Book: Honorable Mention. 'Parents for Sale' is Story Monster Approved, and has received a 5 Star rating from Readers’ Favorite. In addition to the Children's Literary Classics Seal of Approval and the recent Mom's Choice Award, 'Strike At Charles' Farm /Grève à la ferme de Charles’ was named a runner-up in the 2015 Animals, Animals, Animals Book Awards and received an Honorable Mention; 2015 New England Book Festival. It also received 3 5 Star reviews from Readers’ Favorite. 'Are You Eating My Lunch?/Manges-tu mon lunch?' has also received five 5 Star reviews from Readers’ Favorite and took a Mom's Choice Silver Award. Dr Nicole was also named as a winner in the "50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading Book Awards" for 2015.

Dr. Nicole has sold over 150,000 books in her career. She is highly regarded for her work with children’s books and a health guide for families. Her goals are to create in children a love for reading and to create interaction and engagement.

Dr. Nicole’s books have received high praise from reviewers. In regards to 'Are You Eating My Lunch?/Manges-tu mon lunch?', Grady Harp stated, "This is another little winner from Dr. Nicole - combining learning with entertainment. Such a fine style of writing she has established – making the reader want more. Highly recommended." In a review for 'Strike At Charles' Farm/Grève à la ferme de Charles’', Harp said, "Not only does Nicole write a fine story with an excellent moral, but she also adds questions about farm animals at the end for children ( and adults ) to learn whether they remember the facts of the story. Highly recommended book – whether you wish to read it in English or French."

A no-charge copies of her any of her books are available for University teachers, journalists and members of the media who provide email, website, mail address and phone number.

Award Winning Children's Book Author Deanie Humphrys-Dunne Offers Real Hope To Kids With Cerebral Palsy

Deanie Humphrys-Dunne writes captivating books that teach children valuable life lessons about tenacity and overcoming obstacles. She uses animal stories to help kids overcome challenges

Award winning children's book author Deanie Humphrys-Dunne's personal life underlies the message she presents in her inspirational children's books. Based on her own life, 'Tails of Sweetbrier' is a true story of a little girl who dreams of becoming a champion horseback rider. But this child has been diagnosed with cerebral palsy. The doctors say she will never be able to walk.

"I was born with cerebral palsy," Deanie stated in a recent article. "It only affects my legs, so I'm blessed in that regard. One of the most amazing benefits I had was my parents' philosophy. They constantly reassured me that I could do anything. Admittedly, certain things would take longer, but they never dwelled  on my limitations. This gave me a healthy outlook and the confidence to strive to reach my goals, no matter how lofty. In our family, giving up was never an option. We were taught perseverance is the key to success."

"This morning I read an article by the parent of a child with cerebral palsy. The author mentioned how "Frustrating" it was for her raising a child with physical limitations. Her child has “mild cerebral palsy” and struggles with simple tasks requiring coordination. I can certainly relate to that opinion. But I'd choose to encourage my child to set goals and work toward them. I'd advise him/her to search for what they love and pursue it. In my experience, it's amazing what you can accomplish if you try."

Deanie has won numerous awards for her books. She was recently chosen as one of '50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading' for her story about the creation of 'Tails Of Sweetbrier'. 'Tails Of Sweetbrier' also received honorable mention in the Young Adult Nonfiction category of the Purple Dragonfly Book Awards. The book took the Silver Medal in the Feathered Quill Book Awards in the Juvenile/YA Nonfiction category in 2014 and it was one of five finalists in the CLIPPA Awards in the 3rd - 4th Grade category. Deanie recently received the Dragon's Loyalty Blogging award from author/ illustrator, JD Holiday. She also appeared on Holiday's radio show on Blog Talk Radio.

"I constantly try to impress upon children a single message - 'Never give up on your dreams'. No one knows what you can do. The last line of Tails of Sweetbrier is, 'You have the power to make your dreams come true so reach for them and don’t accept anything less.”

Deanie believes the message that perseverance is the key to accomplishing amazing things is one that can benefit every child. Through her inspiring, real life and fictional works, children will learn that anything is possible if they refuse to give up on their dreams. Through her works, children are reminded that tenacity is the key to success. They will see proof that obstacles can be overcome and that quitting only guarantees failure.

Other books written by Deanie include ‘Charlene The Star’, ‘Charlene The Star And Hattie's Heroes’, ‘Charlie The Horse’ and 'Charlene The Star And Bentley Bulldog.’

A WTNH interview featuring Deanie is available at Youtube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXqRLbm_Cf0 and at her website. In addition, two new videos have been created for her books.

Award Winning Children's Book Author Deanie Humphrys-Dunne Uses Animal Stories To Help Kids Learn To Overcome Challenges

Deanie Humphrys-Dunne writes captivating books that teach children valuable life lessons about tenacity and overcoming obstacles

To capture and hold a child's attention long enough to teach something of value is a real challenge. Nothing does that more effectively than a story about animals.  While many children's books do that in a fictional setting, children's book author Deanie Humphrys-Dunne writes engaging books that teach valuable life lessons that are based in fact.

Deanie has won numerous awards for her books. She was recently chosen as one of '50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading' for her story about the creation of 'Tails Of Sweetbrier'. 'Tails Of Sweetbrier' also received honorable mention in the Young Adult Nonfiction category of the Purple Dragonfly Book Awards.

"The purpose of Tails of Sweetbrier is to encourage every child to follow his/her dreams," Deanie stated. "This message would benefit every child. The journey a child takes by reading this story will show that perseverance is the key to success. The closing statement of the book is: 'You have the power to make your dreams come true so reach for them and don’t accept anything less.”

Deanie believes the message that perseverance is the key to accomplishing amazing things is one that can benefit every child.

Through her works, children are reminded that tenacity is the key to success. They will see proof that obstacles can be overcome and that quitting only guarantees failure.

Award Winning Children's Book Author Dr Nicole Announces New Award For 'Parents For Sale'

Dr. Nicole is a best-selling author of children's books that educate, inspire and teach valuable life lessons

Dr. Nicole recently announced that 'Parents For Sale' is a Bronze Medal winner in the 2015 Reader's Favorite International Book Awards Contest in the Children - Animals category.

In the traditions of Walt Disney and Dr. Seuss, Dr. Nicole breathes life into inanimate objects and wildly entertaining characters that engage children in powerful ways. Through parent/child interaction, her works develop a love for reading while helping children develop the most important skill of all - critical thinking.

The award is the latest in a long lineup of awards for 'Parents For Sale'. Other awards include 2015 Dragonfly Books Award: Chapters Book: Honorable Mention; 2015 New York Book Festival: Children’s Book: Honorable Mention and the 2015 Hollywood Book Festival: Children’s Book: Honorable Mention. 'Parents For Sale' is Story Monster Approved, and has received a 5 Star rating from Readers’ Favorite.

"I am pleased," stated Dr. Nicole, "to be awarded the Bronze Medal. "In my writing career, I have the honor to be noted as an award-winning bestseller in Quebec. I am truly grateful and honored for this Reader’s Favorite recognition. It opens the doors to a worldwide career."

Dr. Nicole has sold over 150,000 books in her career. She is highly regarded for her work with children's books and a health guide for families. Her goals are to create in children a love for reading and to create interaction and engagement, all with a focus on helping children develop the most important skill of all - critical thinking.

In 'Parents For Sale', a 44-page, color-illustrated chapter-book, the Clark family encounters a dilemma. Twins Luke and Lucy don’t take care of their dog, Pistachio, as they had promised their parents they would. One day, their mom threatens to sell the dog. A few hours later, when Luke and Lucy’s parents go to the store, the twins concoct a plan to get rid of their parents, which could take Pistachio away from them forever. The book teaches many lessons including responsibility and the value of family relationships.

Dr. Nicole will release two new children's books in November of this year; 'Are You Eating My Lunch?' and 'Strike At Charles' Farm'.

In 'Are You Eating My Lunch?', a 24-page, bilingual (English/French) picture book, a young boy named Xavier visits the zoo. At lunch time, he can’t find his lunch box. He decides to investigate. He asks all the animals the same question: “Are Eating My Lunch?” During his investigation, he learns the animals’ favorite food.

In 'Strike At Charles' Farm', a 24-page, bilingual (English/French) picture book, A young boy named Charles leads a farm. One day, he faces a problem, as the farm animals go on strike. They refuse to work, want to eat more food or sleep longer. In this book, children will learn the value of work, and that with rights come responsibilities.

"As an author," Dr. Nicole concluded, "my intentions regarding being an author are to inspire children to read, to set their imaginations free and to encourage good decision making regarding health, safety and moral responsibility. Writing children’s books is a way for me to give back and be a positive resource to the community. It is a way that I can positively express myself while having some fun and at the same time being a positive role model for both children and parents. These are just a few small steps to make the world a better place. I hope that my books inspire children to set their minds free and work to make the world a better place."
