What Is Your Name?

My latest book, What Is Your Name?  has just been released and will be delivered right after Thanksgiving.  It is written to be read by your child or fun read aloud. It has a poem about each individual animal with real photos of that animal...to delight all ages.  Animals include the elephant, giraffe, tiger, lion, mouse, kangaroo, crocodile, humpback whale, bald eagle, monkey, worm, bunny, and other poems.  Send me an email for shipping if you would like more than one book. 

I am blessed to have so many supportive people in my life and  I couldn't write without them.  To all of you, a very blessed and happy Thanksgiving.

Miss Sara Sit-a-Spell has arrived...

What a happy surprise to see the final proof of Miss Sara Sit-a-Spell's Garden.  It is even cuter than I thought it would be..so bright and cheery with colorful pictures throughout.  I am thrilled to say the least and I am so proud of my granddaughter, Kimberly, for doing such a great job with the illustrations.

So...this is my encouragement to all of you who are traveling this path with me...never give up.  Sooner or not, you will see your work in print and bringing smiles to the little ones who will be reading it.  Thanks for staying with me because the work is not finished. There are three more books in the publishing process and each will await your review.

The website to order is http://www.carolynfindlaydavisbooks.com/
Have a blessed day.

Waiting on the printer....

Today I received the final proof from the printer and Miss Sara Sit-a-Spell's Garden will be off to the printer tomorrow.  The proof was adorable and Kimberly's illustrations are so bright and cheery.  I will have a website to view the book available this week.  I hope you will journey with me down the path that takes this book to a popular seller in children's books.  It is a story that teaches youngsters about the results of hard work and how nice it is to enjoy the fruits of your labor.

Stay tuned for the website and hope you will join me there.

The First Manuscript is Completed...

Today is the first day of the rest of my book selling days.  The completed manuscript has been sent to the publisher along with all the beautiful illustrations done by my granddaughter.  It's a masterpiece...that is, we think it is.  Now for the wait for the printer to do its job and voila!  We will be in business.  The first book to be published in full by Carolyn Findlay Davis and illustrated by Kimberly Freeman.  It is called Miss Sara Sit-A-Spell's Garden and is a delightful story to be enjoyed by children of all ages. 

My web page is being designed and soon will be up and running.  This is an exciting time and I am pleased to have you travel along with me to see where the end result will be...secretly, I know it will be gobbled up by a large publishing company and be on the best seller list soon.
