Meet Laurel Decher
The joys we discover early can turn into life-long fascinations. That’s why my books challenge 9-to-12-year-old readers to open all the doors in their lives! Until we reach retirement age, most of us will never again have a window of time, energy, and brain power like this. Seven Kingdoms Fairy Tales are about enjoying reading superpowers, imagining delightfully silly places, and discovering life’s possibilities. Read the books in any order. :) Laurel Decher lives on the outskirts of a mid-sized city in Germany, between a medieval chapel on the St. James’ Way and a boundary marker tree carved with a scary face. It’s a little surprising, since she expected to live in Vermont for the rest of her life. You just never know when adventure will call! TROUBLE WITH PARSNIPS is her first book for young readers (ages 9-12). She writes stories about all things whimsical, vegetable, or musical. In LOST WITH LEEKS, Prince Nero has to find his true North and rescue St. Nicholas before it’s too late. In UNDER PRESSURE WITH A SQUASH: The Multiplication Problem, Princess Saffy and Prince Magellan face test after test to save their beloved dragon.
It’s like The King’s Speech, but for kids. When it’s save-the-kingdom time, a nameless princess has to use her whole toolbox. . . Can she finally use the one tool that’s never worked. . .her quiet voice? Organizing a party is hard! When you’re a behind-the-scenes inventor princess, it’s even worse. But when your royal parents fall ill with croquet fever? All they want to do is play croquet! The pressure’s on! Then your royal aunt burns down the castle. . . And your fairy godmother’s booby-trapped gift means. . . No one hears you at all! What’s a princess to do? __________________ Whether it’s speaking up at a feast, or reading a map in a strange kingdom, SEVEN KINGDOMS FAIRY TALES are all about finding more magic in your life.

Meet Cimone O’Byrne
I am an author, a mother, a teacher, and a lover of books. I have wanted to be an author since I was a child of 10, when I won a prize for my masterpiece: Peter the Protractor. Inspired by my triumph, my life aim was to publish a book of my own. Thirty years later and I have published the first book in the Children of the Periapt Series. I have started work on the second book; Who is Kitty Midnight? My aim is to write fantasy novels for children that inspire and spark an interest in the fantasy genre. Many of the books available are lengthy and cumbersome, and for some children who love fantasy, can seem a little intimidating. I want to write books that are accessible for those children. My own son included! I am at the beginning of my journey. Feel free to hop along for the ride.

Mit meinen teils mehrsprachigen Bilderbüchern und kurzen Geschichten bin ich in erster Linie daran interessiert, neue Erfahrungen und Anregungen und neue Perspektiven auf unsere Welt zu vermitteln – auch im fantastischen und magischen. Ich möchte das auf spielerische Weise tun und nicht zufällig. Das Schreiben aus der Perspektive der Kinder öffnet die Tür zu Welten, die von Elfen und Tieren, Meerjungfrauen und Königen, Zwergen und Riesen bevölkert sind – Wesen, die Probleme haben und sie lösen können, indem sie einfach die Beschränkungen unserer realen Welt umgehen.

What if you opened an ordinary door in the attic and discovered a desert island, complete with palm trees, parrots… and pirates?

Hidden deep in the countryside, abandoned for years, it is surrounded by trees and filled with secrets bursting to be discovered. When cousins Piper, Jack, Willow and Kit move into Merryshields, the magic is beyond exciting… at first. A silver dog?! A ghostly cook?! A self-drawing map that shows treasure?! But then the cousins spy a flag waving from a window high among the rooftops and before they know it, the magic of Merryshields begins to intensify… Behind the attic room door, pirates Johnny Two-Legs and Taishi are awaiting rescue from Bad Babs, the Witch of the Seas, who raises storms, senses gold and steals children.

Three animal friends. One baby cow in trouble. Can the power of teamwork save the day? Titus the badger, Finn the falcon, and Shylow the fox are as different as three friends can be. But they all share the same love of sailing. When they spot a lost calf on the distant shore, the three friends paddle over to help find her family. With no room left on their boat, the friends plan to build a raft big enough for their new traveling companion. But the baby cow won’t step hoof onto the deck until her new ride gets a glamorous makeover. And soon, her design requests leave the friends’ rescue plan spinning out of control. As their quest drifts into dangerous waters, the friends must work together to bring the calf home safe before they are all swept overboard.

Meet Archie Weatherly
Hello there, my friends. Thank you for taking the time to meet me here on this wonderful platform. You can also visit Ji-hoon and Elsa on my website, or should I rather say, “Their website,” and get a copy of Ji-hoon and Elsa’s free activities. www.archieweatherly.com I moved to Illinois with my parents when I was two years old from the United Kingdom. I grew up in Illinois and went on to work as a teacher, lecturer, and parenting life coach. I’m married to a lovely woman and have two wonderful children. I like to cook, fish, play table tennis, and go hiking. My true passion is writing, which I intend to pursue full-time soon. When I was thinking about teaching my own children some life lessons about saying sorry, how to treat others, and diversity, I decided to do it in a fun and straightforward way by incorporating it into a story. Jihoon and Elsa were originally written for my two children. Jihoon and Elsa’s stories positively impacted my kids’ lives, so I decided to share them with every other child to inspire them. Adults will tell you about one or two people who made a significant difference in their lives. My goal is to write books for children that they will remember as adults as ‘books or coloring books that changed their lives.’ Your words have the potential to make a significant difference in the lives of children. When was the last time you encouraged a child or a friend, cheered them up, or let them know they were valued? A few words of encouragement can have a positive impact. May the words in these books inspire children to be their best selves by building their characters in a language they can relate to. I’m sure you’ll appreciate a few unique features in the storybooks and coloring books. Soon you can be expecting more exciting books from Ji-hoon and Elsa. These books are dedicated to every child who deserves to laugh, learn, and be inspired to make a difference. We are going to laugh together. We are going to learn together. We are going to be inspired together. We are going to make a difference together. Your friend Archie www.archieweatherly.com
