New release: THE ELFLING PRINCESS by Cheryl Kaye Tardif, a charming, inspiring picture book for ages 4-8

/


Perfect for bedtime or classroom reading, THE ELFLING PRINCESS illustrated picture book explores themes of imagination and belief in oneself and is suitable for ages 4-8.

 Once upon a time, in a world full of magic, there was a kingdom that only few humans had ever seen―the Elfling Kingdom.

Elflings are tiny creatures, the children of the world's first elves. They have pointed ears and hair that is a darker shade than their skin. Their bodies glow any color you can imagine. Elfling girls have silvery wings that shine like satin spider webs. Very few Elfling boys have wings, so they must fly on the backs of birds. But if they are small enough, their sisters will piggy-back them.

Have you ever seen an Elfling?

I know a golden-haired girl named Jessica, who met some Elflings while playing behind her house with her brother, Sebastien. This is her story.

WHALE SONG: School Edition

Thirteen years ago, Sarah Richardson’s life was shattered after the tragic death of her mother. The shocking event left a grief-stricken teen-aged Sarah with partial amnesia.

Some things are easier to forget.

But now a familiar voice from her childhood sends Sarah, a talented mid-twenties ad exec, back to her past. A past that she had thought was long buried.

Some things are meant to be buried.

Torn by nightmares and visions of a yellow-eyed wolf and aided by creatures of the Earth and killer whales that call to her in the night, Sarah must face her fears and recover her memories―even if it destroys her.

Some things are meant to be remembered―at all cost.

This special School Edition contains a discussion guide that teachers can use with their students, or readers can use on their own. The guide explores issues of racism and bullying, and topics like native folklore, friendship and more.
