November 15, 2017 A NEW BABY ARRIVES! BY Linda M. Penn Nothing quite like a new baby – for my co-writer, Frank, and I, there’s nothing quite like a new BOOK! The shipment of our fourth Clayton River Adventure series book, “Clayton’sRiver Adventure Louisville to Paducah,”
just got delivered! Now, all those tedious writing sessions while
“camping out” one morning a week at Panera Bread Louisville Oxmoor seem
well worth it! Hard to explain just how exciting it is to see our ideas
actually out there in print. This book was prompted by the requests of
teachers that Frank and I met from the western KY area at the KY
Teachers of English and Language Arts Conference two years ago. Special thanks to the other team
members – Melissa Quinio, illustrator, and Marie Billings, editor and
layout designer, and the other people who helped us along the way. Be
sure and see the Acknowledgements page in the front matter when you read
the book. As usual, the back matter of the book contains references,
nautical language, and ideas for teachers and parents to use with the
book. So…just be prepared! Frank or I will be out there on the Book Signing trail soon. You can get precise dates and times and other details at website: www.lindampenn.com. The book cover and summary are also on the website. Book is available on Amazon and through IngramSpark. Many thanks to family, friends, and
supporters, particularly, the independent book stores, libraries, and
schools that we have made connections with in the last several years. God Bless and Happy Reading, |
