New Children’s Book Author and Illustrator Showcase
As a children’s book author myself, I know how difficult it can be to get your work published and then get the word out about your books once they are published.
That’s why I’ve created the National Writing for Children Center. It’s a Showcase for children’s book authors and illustrators.
Find out more about the Showcase at the National Writing for Children Center here, and download an application if you’re interested in having your book promoted by us for an entire month at a price you can well afford!

My Life with the Lincolns
Join me for Book Bites for Kids this week on Wednesday, June 30th, at 2:00 CDT. My guest will be Gayle Brandeis, author of the new middle grade novel My Life with the Lincolns.
Call in during the live show to ask a question or make a comment at 1-646-716-9239.
About the Book: Mina Edelman believes that she and her family are the Lincolns reincarnated. Her main task for the next three months: to protect her father from assassination, her mother from insanity, and herself—Willie Lincoln incarnate—from death at age twelve. Apart from that, the summer of 1966 should be like any other. But Mina’s dad begins taking Mina along to hear speeches by Martin Luther King Jr. in Chicago. And soon he brings the freedom movement to their own small town, with consequences for everyone. Gayle Brandeis has written a novel that is at turns laugh-out-loud funny and wise, acute, and compassionate. In My Life with the Lincolns, she gives us the unforgettable Mina Edelman, a precocious girl who faces, along with saving her family, the puzzling experience of growing up.
