Her great-great-grandfather was a published poet from the Yorkshire mining community of the late 1800s. Gillian recently discovered a gift for writing books and poetry and is finding joy in continuing the legacy of writing in her family line. This engaging novel is the first in a series of books she is writing about Deborah and her friends who live along the Big River.Like Deborah, Gillian has always loved having adventures and discovering new places to visit. She and her husband, Steve, enjoy nature, traveling together, and meeting new people. They live in a small mountain community in southern California, close to the Kingsley kids, grandkids, and great-grandchildren. Nicola delights in curating experiences that open doors for people to escape into moments of delight. Whether through color, texture, flavor, or design, in the kitchen, on a canvas, on the page, or in a garden, she desires to create feelings of joy and pleasure through everything her hands touch. Digital art and illustration are a new adventure for her. Nicola grew up painting, drawing, and sculpting. She is an artist, chef, gardener, animal lover, mother, and wife, as well as a dreamer and visionary who lives to make the world a more beautiful place. Anna Elkins earned a BA in art and English, an MFA in Poetry, and a Fulbright Fellowship to write art-inspired poetry in Germany. She has written, painted, and taught on six continents. Along her travels, Anna has published several books and exhibited many paintings. One of her greatest joys is encouraging people to discover and delve into their creativity. Review "Gillian Blackah-Kingsleys book keeps the reader interested from the first page through the last. I found myself rooting for Deborah and her friends as she pursued her adventures beyond the safety of her community. The plot is captivating, the characters are relatable and the message is gentle but clear. This delightful book will uplift children of all ages and encourage them to be who they are created to be. The subtle symbolism is beautifully crafted. My grandchildren will enjoy this wonderful book. We will all look forward to Deborahs next adventure!"-Vicki"Book for ages 3 - 93! Its like a Charlottes Web. This book is well written and filled with adventure for the young mind. The illustrations are vivid and beautifully done. This book would work well in many settings. It would even make a good chapter book for nighttime reading to children. Follow the adventures of Deborah and Kite with surprising twists and turns. Youll love it. I did and Im in my sixties!"-Robbin B."The story of Deborah is written for children of all ages. So it shares characteristics of both Peter Rabbit and Narnia and, like those models, is convincing and complete in itself. That is, it retains interest from chapter to chapter and comes to a satisfying conclusion at the end. Furthermore, a sharp eye detects possibilities for further exploration in stories yet to be written. We eagerly await them!We are introduced to a full cast of interesting characters who, we suspect, will appear again in future titles. Some are kind, truthful, and considerate, some mischievous, while a few are wicked, cruel, thoughtless. Two of the characters are reigning monarchs and exemplify strong, gracious, innovative leadership - models for real life. All readers will welcome the final triumph of good over evil.The printed hardback book with its sturdy perfect binding should withstand much re-reading to little ones and frequent poring over from those now able to read for themselves."-R.K Details ISBN1736349902 Language English ISBN-10 1736349902 ISBN-13 9781736349908 Format Paperback Publisher Golden Flower Publishing Pages 328 Audience Age 6-12 Year 2021 Publication Date 2021-07-16 Imprint Golden Flower Publishing Author Anna Elkins Sandeen UK Release Date 2021-07-16 Illustrator Nicola E.
