Children have been a big part of my life ever since I can remember. As a Mom I have always tried to instill the importance of books and reading in my own child. Books can take a child to magical places they have never been before. They can stir their imaginations and spark their creativity. I hope my books will bring as much joy to your children as I have had making them.

Description

<p><span style="color:rgb(15,17,17);font-family:'Amazon Ember', Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;">What happens when a king loses his prowess? The day Henry IV could finally declare he had vanquished his enemies, he threw it all away with an infamous deed. No English king had executed an archbishop before. And divine judgment was quick to follow. Many thought he was struck with leprosy—God's greatest punishment for sinners. From that point on, Henry's health was cursed and he fought doggedly on as his body continued to betray him—reducing this once great warrior to an invalid. Fortunately for England, his heir was ready and eager to take over. But Henry wasn't willing to relinquish what he had worked so hard to preserve. No one was going to take away his royal prerogative—not even Prince Hal. But Henry didn't count on Hal's dauntless nature, which threatened to tear the royal family apart.</span></p>

Story Behind The Book

My daughter lost her Grandma and had a very difficult time accepting a new Grandmother. I had to let her know that there was always enough love to go around and that there is always enough love in your heart to love someone new. I wanted her to know that her Grandma would always love her and that it was okay to love her new Grandmother too.

<span class="LHtmlTextView content_description">&quot;Baby Duck's New Grandma&quot;<br />&quot;This book definitely has a positive message though the pace is a little fast. It is definitely something children can relate to, especially those who have lost people they love and have to get used to new people.It is a good book that has a good lesson within itself.&quot; Reviewer:CT Ghostwriter reviews </span>
