PR Log (Press Release) – Maria J. Andrade, author, poet and licensed Child Therapist, is happy and touched that her book for children,"Youngen Finds Her Song," a story about two birds who go on a healing journey, is being used in schools and hospitals across the US & Canada.
Carla Shelley, well known author and poet, recently caught up with Ms. Andrade on her radio blog.
Carla: "How do you explain the fascination and power of your story for children?"
Maria: "Two birds go on a healing adventure together and connect with the power and magic of love within and around them. It brings hope to children about their future and our planet - all of which I deeply believe in."
Carla: "The book is funny too! Laughter is proven to be a healing component for us all."
Maria: "Yes. Times are hard but there is still a lot of good in our world and kids especially, have not lost their funny bone. The characters in my book talk with each other about important things old age, materialism, the environment, war and peace but they can also see the humor in things. Children love to laugh and we can learn from them!"
Carla : "I understand the book is being used in childrens' hospitals to help in the healing process?"
Maria: "That's right. It is being used for example, with such wonderful organizations as, Starlight Foundation,NY and CA and St. Jude's Research Center, TN. I also donate books
to people who work with children's literacy programs or with child poverty."
Carla: "The book is a delight and the CD brings the book to life with the character's voices, special effect and music. I think kids from 6 to 106 will be inspired by its message of love, earth stewardship and hope. Where can the book be purchased?"
Maria: "It is online in all major book stores or on my website: www.magicunion.com.There are special rates for educators."
Carla: "Thank you, Maria. Are you Twittering about your book?"
Maria: Sure. Just go to Twitter and put in "birdchat."
