The Ultimate Guide to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (available on iBooks for only $3.99) was released June 21, 2012, so help us celebrate the tenth birthday of this wonder-filled book for kids.

Long hot days, a gentle breeze, the sound of water gurgling in the fountain…balancing our hectic lives with the relaxation and pleasure of summer. Is there any better way than curling up with some great reads by the pool? Lately, my days consist of busily getting ready for my much-anticipated trip to my grandparent’s homeland–Gotland, Sweden.

For many places across the globe, this last winter was…ODD. From overly cold temps to a Spring that seemed to never come, our gardening plans are needing to be postponed a few weeks in 2022. This unusual weather is also hard on our pollinators; many of which haven’t gotten Mother Nature’s wake-up call to get out of bed. There is a real concern among scientists and green experts that people,
One day, Cristina “TinTin” Santiago found herself curled up in a ball sobbing on the floor of her shower. Her sorrow typically showed up once a month and she was able to shrug it off and keep on with her day. But this time, her sadness felt different. Cristina is an author of young adult/self-help literature, presents her first book ‘Just Breathe’. This beautiful book was written, designed, and illustrated
As springtime begins to show its glorious face, the Audrey Press Team is craving beautiful books that remind us of just how amazing nature is. Written by Jan Hughes and Illustrated by Ruth Hengeveld, Little Sap: The Magical Story of a Forest Family, is one of those books.
