Summary: We have SUCH GOOD NEWS! Our very first Sparkle Stories eBook is now available for Kindle! (We're just so excited!) For years people have been asking us to make our stories available in print. “I would love for my older children to read your stories." “We need bedtime stories we can trust.” "I am Deaf. So listening to stories does not work for me. Do you have written transcripts?" And we've finally made it happen! It's called "Junkyard Tales: The Cat’s New Home." It's a collection of the six introductory stories in the Junkyard Tales series. And you'll find it on Amazon! These are the same delightful stories you've enjoyed in audio format, but rewritten for print! You can read them out-loud or invite your young reader to enjoy them. Not only that, but the eBook also includes four Junkyard Crafts and Games, created and designed by the fabulous Annie Riechmann! Annie is the creator and publisher of Alphabet Glue, a literacy themed e-magazine for families, and is an associate editor for Rhythm of the Home, the popular quarterly magazine. Learn how to create fun from your own "junk" and hone your own Junkyard-style hiding skills! Sparkle eBooks are a whole new way to enjoy the stories. It has potential to introduce Sparkle to an entirely new community! And guess what? The book is only $2.99! Buy it HERE! :::::::: This first week on the Amazon Kindle platform is key. Will you help Sparkle scale the rankings on Amazon.com? Our success on Amazon is directly tied to reviews. If there are a lot of reviews for a new book – especially glowing reviews – then the ranking of the book is higher. If the ranking is higher, more people will see it in their search.
