It has been a long time since I have posted on the Lae Lae blog and I am overdue in announcing the latest award for one of my favorite books "A Trip To Hideaway Farm". The book was chosen as a Distinguished Favorite Book by The INDEPENDENT PRESS AWARD Association. The competition had entries from around the world. Authors and publishers representing independent publishing from countries such as the U.S., Australia, Canada, Germany, Ireland, Jordan, New Zealand and Switzerland entered and the competition was judged by experts in different aspects of the book publishing industry, including writers, editors, publishers and book designers.
My book is about a little Navajo girl named Mai and her life with her family and her animals. Lae Lae and her friends visit Mai and learn about the Navajo and American Indian spirituality and the code of "Living in Balance" with reverence for Mother Earth and Father Sky. The book is my 10th book in the Lae Lae Collection. Each book is divided into three sections: A read along story, a story telling section and a games and activities section. It is designed for an age range of 2 to 6 years old; a broad range but the book can be enjoyed by a toddler on a lap as a picture story book with simple activities as well as by a first reader for the older child.
With today's complexities and the lack of harmony in our lives, it is important to remember the simple and essential morals and values of life as expressed in the Indian life. I hope people enjoy reading "A Trip to Hideaway Farm" as much as I enjoyed researching and putting it together.
