Dear Librarian: Have you noticed that dogs, cats, and teddy bears get all the attention in kids' books? I have, and while I love these furry creatures, I've made it my mission to give our feathered friends the spotlight they so rightly deserve. And so the Bird Brain Books were born. Six are available now with three more coming in 2013. I just can't get enough of my favorite feathery goofballs. What's more, these books teach important lessons in entertaining beak-sized bites. Remember to say thank you when someone does something nice for you; knowing who you are—rather than what you look like—is what makes you special; appreciate love, friendship, and beauty where ever you can find it; and enjoy the simple bliss of being a kid. I love to chirp about my books with anyone who will listen and have special sections on my website for readers, parents, teachers, librarians, and more. My pet Sun Conure, Ducky, also writes a weekly blog just for kids. You know what else? I'm giving away signed copies of each of the six Bird Brain Books. To enter, visit www.EmlynChand.com/Kids. The winners will be chosen at random—good luck! Emlyn www.EmlynChand.com
