New releases

Posted on August 21, 2012 by Stanley J. St. Clair

Every month we are releasing about three new titles. Sometimes more, perhaps some months, less. It is so exciting to participate in the birthing process.

One of our ongoing projects is classic literature. More than one book is being formatted and prepared at a time, and progress depends upon being able to work them in with new titles. Before the first of September we will be releasing both The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, the timeless classic by Mark Twain based upon his life growing up on the banks of the Mississippi, and A Man for the Ages, Irving Bacheller’s enduring best-seller about the life of our beloved 17th American President, Abraham Lincoln.

Add to this a beautiful 8.5 X 11 full color children’s book, Prince Henry St. Clair, Earl of Orkney, by noted British faerie artist, Hazel Brown, based on the brave voyage made to the New World almost 100 years before Columbus, and you have a trio headed for success.

When new authors come to St. Clair Publications they receive one-on-one personal attention, true value unbeatable in today’s publishing market, and worldwide distribution. Our motto is Small enough to listen to the author, large enough to reach the world.

Prince Henry St. Clair, Earl of Orkney

Posted on August 14, 2012 by Stanley J. St. Clair

On or about 1 September a fresh and delightful new children’s book will be released by St. Clair Publications.

Noted British faerie artist, Hazel Brown, vividly paints this intriguing story, based on the life and voyages of Jarl Henry St. Clair aka Prince Henry Sinclair, and his voyages to the New World 100 years before Columbus, with all of the skill and rapture of a well-seasoned best-selling author.The brilliant full-color illustrations, many of which cover the entire page, are also most remarkable.

Haakon, a twelve-year-old lad of Orkney, has waited what seemed an eternity, for the return of his wise and beloved grandfather, a blacksmith who has traveled with Sir Henry, his navigator, Antonio Zeno, and their crew to discover lands far away. He, along with his two young cousins, Jon and Eugenie, anxiously probe for answers to numerous questions about their mysterious voyage. They are far from disappointed, and not only are told tales beyond their wildest dreams, but experience for themselves exciting adventures which would be the envy of any youngster of their day..

This book will excite children with its fast-paced, carefully-worded tales of blended truth and legends of kIngs and queens, princes and princesses, knights, selkies and fairie folk, all glued together with unforgettable art work. However, it will be equally memorable for adults, who will yearn to read it again and again to their curious offspring.

Children are wonderful

On our trip to the Florida Gulf Coast I greatly cherished the time I spent with my two young grandchildren, Alex and Abby. They are a real delight to be with. All of my children and grandchiuldren have enriched my life, but there’s just something special about the young ones.

That’s why we developed Emma Lynn Children’s Book Division–to give the young ones wholesome reading material. We have a great book available in Gemini’s Galaxy by Katy O. Ishee. Here’s a brief summary from our site:

Having already received highly acclaimed reviews by a number of well-known personalities, Katy Ishee’s new children’s book is bound to take off throughout the Galaxy. Gemi-Ni is a baby bear with twin spirits who struggles with himself and his twin spirit, as he travels thru the mystical lands of Either and Or in this adventurous bear tale. It is there that Gemi learns he has twice the love with his two mamas.

Emma Lynn Children’s Books delight children

Posted on May 20, 2012 by Stanley J. St. Clair

In 2011 St. Clair Publications introduced the Emma Lynn Children’s Book Division. The first one was a delightful 370 page novel for young teens titled The Fortold Child of Flame by Christin Grant and Amberlea RIncan.

This entriguing tale takes young readers back to the medieval days of castles, wicked kings, dragons and fairy-like creatures. There is only one hope to save the land; a prophecy has fortold the coming of a young princess with special powers who will overcome the evil powers and rescue her generation.

Then came Gemini’s Galaxy by Katy O. Ishee, author of Pieces of My Heart, the shocking highly-aclaimed story of triumph over domination and abuse to fulfil her life-long dream of finding her lost son which has been endorsed by top-name entertiners and authors. Gemini’s Galaxy is a fully-illustrated colorful story for children of a baby bear with twin spirits who also overcomes all odds to accomplish things thought impossible. The product of cooperation of five professional persons from around the globe, it is well worth the read for all ages.

This year we will release two intriguing new Emma Lynn Children’s Books: The Peabodys: Icky’s Big Adventure, by Robijo, will be the first in a series of Peabodys Color Illustrated Adventures.

The Peabodys are a diverse family, living with their humans. There is the Mother (Willow, a dachshund mix), the Dad, Chico (a Chihuahua), their children Icky (Icarus) and Piper, Old Uncle Wicket (a miniature poodle) and their adopted member Spooky (a polydactyl cat). The actual daily lives of this little family is nothing less than humorous, but very much like that of a human family. Each of these individuals have such a developed and unique personality that they honestly seem human. Using the concerns facing children today, placed in the context of the Peabodys, Robijo tells stories of encouragement, hope and inspiration.

The other will be Prince Henry St. Clair, Earl of Orkney.

The book, by talented British faerie artist, Hazel Brown, is based on history and legends. Set in 1398, is centered around Haakon, a bright young boy whose grandfather has just returned from an exciting voyage to a mysterious new land with Sir Henry St. Clair. He and his mother live on the Isle of Orkney, where Jarl Henry is the ruler. Writen in true British style and fully illustrated with remarkable original art, this book will keep a pre-teen to young teen hypnotized as they follow the mysteries that Haakon and his cousins discover. This book is set to release in October, 2012.

I am very proud of our children’s books. You will be too when you get them for your children and grandchildren.
