Linda Romblom, is the primary author, with Isabella editing to be sure things are said in a way that her friends will understand. Isabella Walker is the primary illustrator with Grammie Linda helping as they have fun creating together.
These tales began as bedtime stories where Isabella loved being the little Princess in adventures of long ago in a land far away. Their first book, Adventures of Princess Isabella - The Leprechaun, was published in 2017 when Isabella was 7 years old. It is a picture story book with Isabella's colored drawings and includes a template for readers to personalize the story by filling in names: their own, family, and pets. Space is provided to create pictures and discussion questions encourage opportunities for teachable moments.
Linda has a masters degree in education and over 20 years experience in the classroom. Prior to her recent retirement, she taught Consumer Science to high school students including classes in Child Development. Her books use foundational principles that enhance cognitive development and creativity in children. More importantly, according to her, "I want these books to be tools that can be used to enhance relationships between children and adults. Children being entertained by technology is fine sometimes, but human interaction is needed, listening and talking and doing together. Kids need role models."
Their second book, Missing Pots Mystery, is a chapter book, because that is what more mature 9 year-olds read. A continuation of the story, Isabella with her cousins and grandmother help the leprechaun. The doing part of this book is in the appendices: recipes, crafts, activities, discussion questions and even a theme song with the music available on-line.view less
