Building the character


The character of my book is taking shape. The illustrations are in the works. The children’s book “Flying With Kindness “ is starting to take shape. The release date is still planned for Sept 2019.
The main character is a Indian boy name Basil. He is five years old with a young sibling.
Basil has a hard time showing kindness mainly because he perceives it as too much work. When his family takes an airplane while on vacation to their destination, he goes through a transformation that changes him along his journey. It’s similar journey a lot children make. They learn the basics of being kind by being expose to the world around them. This will be a fun book that I believe children will want their parents to read to them over and over again.

Do you have any favorite children’s books?

What are some of my favorite children’s books. My all time favorite is “Duck for President “, by author Doreen Cronin. It’s a wonderful book that teaches kids the process of governing and the election process. It’s a fun book that will enlighten children. This author has several other books.  My second favorite is the all time classic “The Very Hungry Caterpillar “, which teaches nature in a wonderful way. This book was written by author Eric Carle. Another favorite book is “ How Kind”, by Mary Murphy. This is a great picture book for children under two. It’s teaches kindness in a way that toddlers will just understand.

Cheers! Today I am half way finish with my first children's book. Currently, I am working on my illustrations. My manuscript was completed and edited last month. My manuscript took me two and a half years to finish with me revising it at least 65 times. It was a proud moment when I could finally say this is the final draft. My title of my children's book is, "Flying With Kindness". It will be a children's picture book about showing empathy, and kindness to others. In such a crazy world that we live in, we could all use a little bit more kindness. I expect my book to be releases by Sept,or October 2019. Book number two is already in the works.
