Tales From Brook Meadow – The Tale of the Summer Fair

Set in the enchanting Brook Meadow, home to a menagerie of captivating creatures, Tales from Brook Meadow: The Tale of the Summer Fair by Kevin Richardson invites readers on a fascinating journey. In this serene sanctuary, delightful characters like Sammy the Snake, Victor the Fox, and the adventurous field mouse twins, Vincent and Jeremy, live under the watchful care of their protector, Keeper Kiera, and her loyal canine companion, Charlie.

The narrative centers around Vincent and Jeremy, two audacious mice with a penchant for exploration. Their lives take an intriguing turn when they encounter newcomers to their tranquil haven. The prospect of change incites anxiety in the mice, threatening the tranquility of Brook Meadow. However, through the warm bonds of friendship, understanding, and a sprinkling of wisdom from their fellow inhabitants, the mice are led to an insightful discovery during the bustling summer fair.

This story, a delightful mix of whimsy and wisdom, offers a peek into the charm of a nature preserve nestled in the United Kingdom. Richardson’s engaging storytelling has the power to enthrall the reader, while Caroline Hazell’s mesmerizing watercolor illustrations lend an additional layer of allure. Through Vincent and Jeremy’s adventures, the reader is introduced to an understated moral lesson that is elegantly woven into the narrative without being didactic.

As an avid fan of animal stories, I found this delightful tale enticing, conjuring a longing to immerse myself further in the tranquility of Brook Meadow. The story begins with Charlie the Dog and then transitions to focus on the exploits of Vincent and Jeremy. The story is heartwarming and depicts a moment of camaraderie and joy.

Tales from Brook Meadow: The Tale of the Summer Fair is a gorgeously illustrated children’s adventure story that will captivate audiences across all age groups. Whether it’s bedtime storytelling, group readings, or independent exploration, this charming installment in the Brook Meadow series will enchant readers and stimulate their imaginations.

To Connect With My Daughter

John Barrows Author Interview

I Want to Be in Sales When I Grow Up! follows a young girl in school who is assigned the career of sales to write a report on and must now figure out what sales is. What was the inspiration for your story?

My daughter started selling Girl Scout when she was 6 years old.  She wanted to sell the most cookies in her group so we talked about different sales strategies. We decided she would do a video “pitch” about why people should buy from her and then did a blog post about it and share it with my audience with a link to buy Girl Scout cookies.  She ended up having the most sales in the entire town.  The second year we took a similar approach and she was the top seller again.  Around this time I was traveling every week for work and I wanted to find a way to connect with my daughter and help her understand a little more about what daddy did for a living which is Sales Training.  With the Girl Scout experiences being directly related to sales we decided to write the book based on those experiences.   

What were some educational aspects that were important for you to include in this children’s book?

It educates kids on key values like hard work, curiosity and helping people.  

The art in this book is fantastic. What was the art collaboration process like with illustrator Juan Diaz?

I wrote the story and sent in some pictures of me and my family. Juan’s original depiction of the story was spot on and didn’t need much feedback from me.  it was a simple but effective process.

What is one thing you hope children take away from your book?

That Sales is a profession they could and should be proud of if they decided to eventually pursue it as a career.

Inspire Younger Generations

Olivia Kent Author Interview

The Secrets of the Wild follows the creatures of the woods as they embark on their adventures away from the eyes of humans. What was the inspiration for this whimsical tale?

I have always had such a blurred line between what separates something from being an animal vs. being a human being. As I have gotten older, I realized that blurred lines are beautiful. I think that if more people who do hold authority, that do have the control, if they weren’t so set on letting their imagination and childhood go, we as a society would be a lot better off. My inspiration came with the intent to inspire younger generations and to stimulate emotional and educational development. The most pure and unconditional love I have ever received has come from animals and I want the entire world to be open to accepting that every creature on this Earth has as much right to be here, to love, and to exist just as much as you and me. Regardless of the uncertainty they understand you or the actual fact you can’t understand them. With humility, kindness, and patience comes understanding.

What were some educational aspects that were important for you to include in this children’s book?

I was aiming more to trigger a sense of passion, awe, and creativity that led the readers into their own personal path of education. Certain aspects to do with the exploitation and abuse of animals really just tie into the morals I value and withhold within myself. You never want to force education, but bringing up real world issues gently can head start our children for a brighter future!

The art in this book is fantastic. What was the art collaboration process like with your illustrator?

It was an intimidating process honestly. This being my first experience publishing a book, I was very unsure of what I wanted or how to move it along. But, Srimalie and the company did such an amazing job. It’s almost hard to give direction when who you are working with does such an incredible job bringing your ideas to life. The illustrations triggered a confidence in me about my story that I had not had before. Truly such an incredible job and I am so thankful.

What is the next story that you’re writing and when will it be published?

I write very frequently, and most recently I have been having some pretty intense dreams. They are so bizarre and unfathomable it makes me want to create and build off of them. The constant spewing of ideas and characters make it somewhat difficult to really sit down and have one specific plan of action. I am working on a couple different things and of course, you will be in the loop!

There is nothing more exciting than what happens deep in the woods. Aside from human eyes, the hustle and bustle of the wild will shock, awe, and captivate you deep into their world of the unknown. But be careful, because the creatures of the Earth are onto us, and they know much more about us than we know about them…
