Xlibris Author Releases Children’s Book For Young Black Girls

USPS letter carrier debuts with a children’s book with Xlibris.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release) - Sep 29, 2006 -
Los Angeles, CA – Meiko S. Patton, a United States Postal Service letter carrier, authored her first children’s book, The Giant Strawberry. An original idea of her mother, an accomplished songwriter, Patton has successfully expanded the story that appeals to children regardless of race or culture.

One of the many children’s book released by Xlibris, The Giant Strawberry is the story of how 7-year-old Nina Kantabee overcomes an obstacle using her youthful wit and ingenuity. Illustrated in full color and images that spring to life, Nina’s story will teach children (and adults) that a person can triumph over difficulties with strength of character and optimism. The entertaining story, lovable characters and humorous illustrations are sure to capture the hearts and minds of young and old alike. Patton proves she not only delivers mail but she can also write a wonderful story with a moral.

The Giant Strawberry may be purchased directly through Xlibris Corporation or Barnes and Noble.com, Amazon.com and thegiantstrawberry.com.
