“Heart of a Warrior Angel: From Darkness to Light” is the most recent book that I have read penned by the author Lali A Love.

Soon, they got married and when Mira was sixteen, Lilac was born. Dragan abandoned her family and returned to them after 2 years. Dragan physically harmed Lilac. It is heartbreaking to read about Dragan’s temper and outbursts.

The story is gripping and it teaches readers about self-love, self-discovery, self-healing, etc. Cover photo of the book is well designed. I loved every bit of this book.

Recently I read the book “Musa and Pharaoh: Part One” written by Amal Banafa and illustrated by Fatma Omar. Story features a Pharaoh who ruled Egypt and used to treat Israelites like slaves. Day and night Israelites prayed to Allah and Allah heard their prayer. A baby boy named Musa was born in an Israelites home. He was chosen by Allah.

British Marine Engineer penned by the author Liana Margiva is a collection of poems and stories.
Sleepless Nights is my favorite from the collection. It’s an emotional heart-touching story about a lover who is missing her lover and is having sleepless nights without him. The lover is asking for a favor from insomnia to visit her loved one and tell him how miserable she is without him. I could relate to this story as I myself had sleepless nights earlier in my life.
The British Engineer is about Douglas and Lorena. Douglas was a marine engineer who worked under contract near the Atlantic Ocean. When Douglas addressed Lorena as his best friend ever, his words touched her deeply. This is a wonderful read.
I enjoyed reading Liana’s work. I appreciate the storytelling skills of the author. Those who love reading stories and poetry should check Liana’s work. Written in approx 100 pages, one could read this book in two sittings. I loved the cover photo of the book and the title is also suitable.

My name is Teressa Hill! I am originally from Portland Oregon where I grew up as a competitive figure skater. I have always been a writer. As a young girl, I would write poetry and short stories. I enjoyed my English classes in grade school and English and Creative Writing in College where I studied theater as well.
Q2. From where did you get the idea for your book “Boo Who?”?
I was trying to figure out a plot that my characters could face that teaches children how to face their fears. I’m a strong believer in getting out of the problem and into the solution. Walking through the fear sometimes is the best way to go because then you turn around and look back and you’ve done it, which builds self-esteem.
Q3. Can you tell us one thing people may not know about you?
I am currently working in Los Angeles as a professional film and television hair stylist, which is another art form that I enjoy. I am honored to be nominated this season for my work in the film industry. I’ve had the opportunity to work with some of the greats in our business.
Q4. How much research did you do? before you began your book?
Before I begin any project, I always do massive research. For this particular book, I researched trolls, fairies, Halloween, scarecrows, snails, witches and ghosts. I focused on Halloween and all the characters that come with it.
Q5. Which age group is your book “Boo Who?” suitable for?
For reading, I think it is great for ages six years and older. I believe it can be a book very entertaining for children under than the age of six due to the story line, characters, and the poetic meter.
Q6. What makes you passionate about being a writer?
Knowing that I can change a child’s perspective at a young age and encourage them to better themselves and to be kind and accepting of others. We are all flawed, yet our flaws make us unique unto ourselves and bring something special to the world.
Q7. What is the process of writing a book: how does it go from an idea to finished work on sale in bookstores?
For me, the first step was creating my core characters that I knew were going to embark on adventures where they would meet interesting characters along the way who set obstacles in their path. The challenges my characters faced and overcame would help children understand how to maneuver situations that may occur in their life as they grow older. I am a big fan of positive influences in children’s lives, as well as a big advocate for animals.
Q8. Where do you see yourself in five years?
I see myself as a successful children’s book author with a successful children’s animation series, Gracie and Sniggles.
Q9. What has been the highlight of your career so far?
Publishing my books! The ability to give back has been a highlight as well as all the royalties of “The Mystery of the Blue Goo” are donated to Saint Jude’s and the royalties from “Boo Who?” go to the ASPCA.
Q10. What do you hope kids learn from your books?
The benefit of kindness towards others, compassion towards those that are different from themselves, and the importance of friendship. Being different makes life more interesting and makes the world go round.
