BTR's World of Ink Network Featured Show: Stories for Children

Featured BTR World of Ink Network Show Stories for Children on January 7, 2013 at 2pm EST - 1pm CDT - 12 (noon) MDT - 11am PST

Join hosts VS Grenier & Marsha Casper (our guest host) as they chat with debute children's author Elizabeth Kail Arnita about her Chirstian Children's Picture Book, BABY COME HOME published by Halo Publishing Int.

“Baby Come Home” is a story of the young bird, “Baby”, who learns the value of unconditional love and acceptance after he decides to break free from the confinement of his cage and those who love him most. The story gives children a different perspective on rules and why we need to obey them while also offering a teaching on the unconditional love our perfect God has for His imperfect people.

All proceeds from book sales support Welcome the Children, a nonprofit helping children in poverty.

After graduating in 1983, with a degree in Psychology from the University of Pittsburgh, Elizabeth married Shadi and they have been blessed with four fabulous children. Her love for the Lord has opened her eyes to a world in need and ignited her compassion for those who are less fortunate.

Maggie Lyons was born in Wales and brought up in England before gravitating west to Virginia’s coast. She zigzagged her way through a motley variety of careers from orchestral management to law-firm media relations to academic editing. Writing and editing nonfiction for adults brought plenty of satisfaction but nothing like the magic she discovered in writing fiction and nonfiction for children.

VS: I want to thank you for being my guest here on The Writing Mama today, Maggie. To get things started can you share what you do to help balance your writing life with your family life?

American Chronicle | Get to know Rodger Dodger Dog and His Author, Jan Britland

In 1986, Jan was driving her children in a new town to start school. On their way, they would pass a beagle type dog chained to a huge Magnolia tree. Some days they would see the chain hanging down from the tree. "I think we just assumed the dog was in the house until one day we realized he was up in the tree. From that day on, Rodger Dodger Dog as we called him became a favorite. It was a 45-minute drive, which can become boring so as we passed him, I would start telling a story about Rodger Dodger's adventures up the tree and beyond.

"My daughter was complaining her son ...

One night John invented a red crocodile named Crosley for an after-lights-out companion. This evolved directly into...
