Here’s a
fun title for you called The Persnickety Princess and it’s by Falcon Storm. Dig that name, huh?
It’s a story of a Princess who’s the pickiest person you’ve ever met (or not met). She wants to be rescued by a charming prince, but to be brutally honest, who’d want to rescue someone so persnickety?
Not only is she the pickiest and rudest person you’ve met, she employs a witch who is not worth her weight in cauldrons. What’s up with that?
Hilarity ensues as we watch the Persnickety Princess foil her own attempts to attract Prince Charming. And gets dirty in the process.
Fortunately, Princess Unconventional Librarian NEVER gets her crown dirty.
About the Book – About the Author – Prizes!!!
About the book: High up in the tallest tower of the purplest castle in the Kingdom by the Sea, Princess Lavender awaits rescue. Desperate as she may be, only the most dashing, well dressed, properly mannered prince will do. Oh, and he must stand exactly four and three-quarters inches taller than her. A princess has got to have standards, after all.
When, finally, one such prince comes to her castle—not to rescue her, but her younger sister—Lavender refuses to be ignored. Instead of waiting for the next suitor to come along, she devises a plan to put herself in danger, thus forcing the upstart prince to forget her sister and rescue her instead.
Well accustomed to getting her way, there is only one thing, unfortunately, that this princess can’t control—her luck. When her plans go awry, putting her in very real danger, will she allow the prince to rescue her as he sees fit? Will he even want to try?
And will anyone be able to find a way to rescue Lavender from her persnickety ways once and for all? Find out in this comedic tale of princes, dragons, and dreams that just may come true.
The Persnickety Princess is a lower grade chapter book intended for kids 6 to 9 years old (although kids of all ages are sure to enjoy it! Pick up your copy through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Smashwords or Kobo Books.
About the author: I was born in the frozen wasteland of Alaska with the unfortunate stigma of being both a daydreamer and left-handed. Starting from an early age, I’ve filled my life with stories of every sort from my father’s hunting trips to the Holy Trilogy (read: Star Wars). In the fourth grade, I became more interested in telling stories of my own than listening to those of others. Doctors—being doctors—attempted to medicate them out of me, but the best cure has always been a pen, a notebook, and my crazy, unrestrained imagination. I continue to whittle away at these stories in my endless search for the one that will finally bring me back to reality. All the while, I secretly hope such a story will never come along. I hear “reality” is far too boring. Connect with Falcon on his website, Facebook, GoodReads, or Twitter.

As you know, I love kids’ books. I also love books about animals. A perfect combination is a book for kids about animals! Know what’s even more perfect? Animals who talk and have feelings. I love it. Can’t get enough of it.
So I was thrilled when my bestie Emlyn Chand of Novel Publicity begged asked me to review her kids’ book Honey the Hero. Honey is a little birdie who wants to be a superhero. What’s not to love about that?Here’s what the buzz is saying:
Let me tell you about Honey. She’s a curious little parakeet living in the Australian Outback. One day she happens upon a family watching a show about a superhero on a great big TV screen. Since she can already fly, all she needs to do is create a costume to conceal her true identity—bammo—now she’s a superhero too!
Well, let’s just say, her first attempts at saving the day go horribly wrong. Disheartened, the poor baby bird decides to give up on her dream. But, uh-oh, now someone actually needs Honey’s help. Can she pull it together and save the day at last?
Kids and superhero wanting to be parents can relate to Honey’s desire to help. Honey’s ego is as tall as the trees and her heart is as big as the ocean and this book is as good as something real good. Like chocolate covered bacon; prolly.
I had so much fun reading Honey the Hero, I wanted to join in the fun. So I made some cards to go with.
Honey, helping the helpless gecko.
and the helpless bird
friend to the friendless
Honey, hero to all.
And you know what? There are more bird books coming! Can’t wait!
I give this delightful parvum opus 4 paws!
