About

I like to see theworld in a silly way and when I come across something whimsical it hasa major effect on my writing and art. Maurice Noble, a Disney Animator,told me once that if you want your work to be 3-D then you need to havea 3-D life. Lots of experiences and lots of adventures. So with that inmind, I go on lots of adventures, even if it has nothing to do withwhat I am working on. You never know when or where you will getinspiration from and it can come in the strangest ways. Years ago, Iwent to the Cryptology and Spy Museum around the same time of year anda friend asked me why I went there. I told them I didn't know, but Ijust wanted to go and see them. Well, as it turns out, I used what Ilearn at both of those museums in my latest books. Most important thingI found out is that I would make a really good spy. And that's animportant skill in life. So if this Children's Book Work doesn't payoff I have a new career path. When I create, I take things in from alldifferent sources and then my mind mixes them up. When the time isright, my brain spits out an idea in the funniest way.

With my books, I try to fill in spaces that are lacking inChildren's lives. I noticed over the last few years that kids werelosing their imagination. So I created The Mystery of Journeys Crowneand Batty Malgoony's Mystic Carnivale, so that kids could increasetheir imagination.

Description

Do angels, ghosts and demons really exist, or are they a figment of our over active imagination? Can ghosts, demons and spirits harm you? If you don't believe in them they can't bother you right? How can you protect yourself against the paranormal? Do we live once and it's all over or do we come back time and again to live new lives? In this book, you will gain information about the paranormal from a psychic-mediums perspective. As a psychic medium I have gathered a lot of information about the other side. The book covers over more than 40 years of paranormal related information interspersed with my own personal paranormal encounters. Anyone who is interested in the paranormal including ghosts, demons, orbs and hauntings will enjoy the many topics covered in this book. Those interested in spiritualism, new age topics and metaphysics will find many of the chapters such as past lives, possession and death and the soul connection. People who are experiencing their own paranormal occurrences such as hauntings and spirit attachments will find help and information to help them. People of all ages, walks of life and many religions will find something of interest in the book. Even those who do not believe in the paranormal will enjoy many of the thought provoking topics covered in this book.

Reviews

This is a fantastic book that encourages creativity.This book is awesome! It is chock full of vibrant, colorful, enchanting illustrations. What's even better is that it encourages children to use their own creativity and draw their own pictures in the places provided. Your child will love this book and will no doubt spend hours using his/her imagination. Carla Burke, TX Wow! This is a bright, happy colorful book with witty characters that brings out the little artist in my six year old. Drawing in the character's faces is lots of fun and urges creativity and imagination! K. Michael Crawford's illustrations are amazing! Diane Czerkies A fanciful blend of reading and creativity! First I must say that this is a book I would have adored as a child. Heck - I adore it now! With its fantastic illustrations and imaginative characters, you will get the best of both worlds. For many children, reading is a task to be completed. Yet here the author and illustrator draw the child in, allowing them to utilize their imagination to complete the scenes. While there is no story written down here, there certainly is a visual feast of a story that any child, artist or not, could have hours of fun with. Kelly Dollard How many interactive picture books can you find for children aged 4 to 8 years? Not many, I surmise. Batty Malgoony’s Mystic Carnival is an interactive picture book that takes children on a magical drawing escapade. Appealing especially for boys, this book if filled with weird, wacky and wonderful creatures come to life on the page via K. Michael Crawford’s vibrant illustrations. And what is so fun about this book is the child is asked to participate in drawing the characters in spaces provided. The characters then become part of the story. 60 pages of fun. Kelly Long Burstow "Batty Malgoony's Mystic Carnivale: A Magical Drawing Escapade" is a wonderful drawing and art experience book for children age 7 and up. All the different sections of the Mystic Carnivale are presented with strategic blank spaces for the reader to draw suggested creatures or props to complete Batty Malgoony's Mystic Carnivale. Readers/artists may draw in the spaces in the book, or may use colored pencils and markers, erasers and paper to create their own scenes with backgrounds too. Artists/readers must agree to the Straight Up which requires the artists to use no drawings of weapons in any of their pictures. Artists are asked to be creative and clever instead, and find something that will fit with the theme of the drawing page instead. "Batty Malgoony's Mystic Carnivale" is a great boost to the creative spirit and besides that, it is full of fun. Midwest Book Review- October 2009 Children's Bookwatch Another masterpiece Another spectacular masterpiece by K Michael Crawford,Another creative book that my 8 year old loved. The reader is asked to draw in the imaginative characters, and creatures, on each page of this colorful book.This is definately a book for an imaginative kid and which kid isn't? This is a great book for travel,for snowy days and for just, "Mom I am bored" days.I highly recommend K Michael's books they are that well done. Sangeeta Ankaraju Wicked Fun What could be more fun than a crazy circus tour where you have to draw in some of the characters? My six-year old daughter thinks Batty Malgoony's Mystic Carnivale is a lot of fun (her favorite thing at school is art). My four year old son finds it a little creepy. While I generally encourage my kids NOT to write in books, I really liked the interactive "use your imagination" factor of this one. The illustrations were very appropriate for a mystic carnivale that only runs at night. I found the cow tied to the train disturbing and I wasn't crazy about the road-kill cafe, but I know a lot of kids go through a Gross is Great! phase. This is the sort of book that I would think has a lot of both boy and reluctant reader appeal. One thing I thought was really good was that some draw-in areas were completely blank and some that needed perspective (for example, a chair and a tricycle) had very faint lines to help young artists understand how to draw those objects. I would recommend giving a sketch pad or packet of typing paper along with this book; that way children will have some artwork to hang on the fridge and can go back to their favorite scenes again and again. A.B. Richardson- Artemis Greenleaf Absolutely creative,An activity book for the younger set, but certainly to be enjoyed by one and all. Think of this as a guided coloring book where your imagination fills in the whys and wherefores of the story. Absolutely creative and, once again, weapon free. I love all the loose ends and fill-in-the blanks for endless hours of imaginative self-entertainment. Lisa Barkerhttp://biblioreads.blogspot.com/
