Fairy Bell Release Day!

Tuesday, April 23, 2013


by Margaret McNamara, published by Balzer + Bray


Today is the day Clara, Rosy, Golden, Sylva and Baby Squeak (Hortensia) officially fly from the island to bookshelves everywhere! They would absolutely love to meet you, and I'd love to introduce them:





The sisters live here, on Sheepskerry Island: 




Book #1 features brave & quick-thinking Sylva Bell:




There are water fights, troll attacks, balls, ....




Book #2 features big-hearted Rosy Bell:



With summer children, secret letters, daring chases, fairy houses...






Book #1& #2 are available wherever books are sold. Book #3, featuring Goldie, comes in September. Big congratulations to enchanting Bell author Margaret McNamara (her new FB page is here) and who dreamed the world, the sisters and their adventures up! And to the B+B team: Amy Ryan, Donna Bray, Erin Fitzimmons for the gorgeous design, type, art direction, encouragement and unending energy.



(P.S. The paperbacks shimmer!)


I'll be posting Part II: Behind the Scenes With the Bells, and Part III: Visiting Sheepskerry Island. So stay tuned. Welcome to the adventure!
