BENNY'S ANGEL in CAPE CORAL and NAPLES, FLORIDA 

Saturday, October 13, will be a busy day for Benny's Angel and for me. Between 9 a.m. and noon we will be at the Art and Book Fest at Hampton Inn and Suites located at 619 SE 47th Terrace in Cape Coral, Florida. This is a free event and features a free book for children 3-18. Artists and authors will display their work for sale and authors will be available to sign copies of their books. A children's book reading will take place at 11 a.m.

Saturday afternoon, from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m., join  us for the Local Author Meet & Greet, Part 2 at Barnes & Noble Booksellers Waterside Shops, 5377 Tamiami Trail, Naples, Florida. A number of area authors will be available to chat with visitors and sign copies of their books.

Benny's Angel, the first book in the children's series, God's Secret Garden Adventures, illustrates the importance of prayer. Book 2, Fred D's Amazing Escape, shows the need for obedience. It will be released by Tate Publishing in March 2013. In Book 3, Catie's Secret, children learn why they should not tease or bully. It also will be released in 2013.

Why not consider starting your child off this Christmas with a signed copy of Benny's Angel and later adding the sequels at Easter or for a birthday gift? With Christmas fast approaching, enjoy browsing these events and getting a jump on Christmas shopping!
