She mentioned that Clara Publishing was about to launch a new website entitled, "Books As Friends" which encourages literacy and features the work of Author, Relationship Authority and Licensed Marriage and Family Counselor, Maria J. Andrade.
Ms. Andrade is known as a staunchly private individual who rather spend time with a pen or spade in her hand than talking to media or interacting publicly. She is difficult to get a hold of, therefore, her editor has found a way for the public to learn about the author and the breadth of her work. At "Books As Friends" teachers, readers of all ages and librarians may learn about Ms. Andrade's stories for children focusing on caring and compassion, self-help books on love and relationship, science fiction and poetry in Spanish and English and visitors may participate in the discussions at Amazon.com to which the author frequently contributes.
