KATY-DID Publishing

KATY-DID Publishing, LLC is a six-year-old publishing company that specializes in creating vibrantly illustrated books for parents and children to enjoy together.

“The Old Clock On The Wall” by Lynda Bulla (illustrated by Ernie Hergenroeder) is a charming rhyming book that is beautifully designed to entice even the most reluctant of readers.  “The Old Clock On The Wall” teaches a youngster the importance of not giving up on a goal simply because things get a little tough: “It’s only the quitters that lose in the end. They never try, so they never win.”  This recurring tag line is one that will inspire both children and parents alike.

Are you trying to instill a sense of individuality and pride in your youngster? If so, “The Churkendoose” is a must to include in your child’s library.  The original story, created by Ben Ross Berenberg in 1946 and illustrated by Dellwyn Cunningham, was brought to life again by Bulla and Hergenroeder.

One More Story
Review by Linda Pliagasr

The internet has revolutionized education.  Thanks to the World Wide Web, learning is now an interactive activity, one that adults and children alike can partake in the comfort and convenience of home. 

One More Story is an example of an educational website that fosters a love of learning and reading in children.  Forget about having to drive miles with kids asking, “Are we there yet?” in order to visit the nearest library.  One More Story provides a wide array of beautifully-illustrated, popular children’s titles with just a click of a mouse.

The website was developed to provide children, ages two through nine, with the best of both classic and contemporary literature.  One More Story collaborates with top national publishers, such as Random House, Penguin Putnam, Harper/Collins, and others, and for a minimal annual fee makes their prized collection available at any time, day or night.

Award-winning author Ellen Feld began her career in a subject far removed from horses.  Receiving a B.A. from the University of Massachusetts with a double major of Russian and Soviet and Eastern European Studies, Ms. Feld continued her studies with graduate work at Georgetown University where she focused on Russian Studies.  After a brief stint working in Washington, D.C., Ms. Feld realized she missed her childhood home and returned to rural Massachusetts.

Ms. Feld's stories are noted for their realistic portrayal of horses, their behaviors, and the experiences of young riders.  To achieve this believability, Ms. Feld uses her horses as the basis for the animal characters within her books.  For instance, Ms. Feld’s horse Blackjack, a showy English Pleasure horse, stumbles over the smallest of jumps.  In the book Rusty, the main character Heather tries to teach her beloved Blackjack to jump, but like the real Blackjack, he is unable to get his feet over the tiny ground poles.  Many of the experiences that Heather has with her horses evolve from adventures that either Ms. Feld or one of her friends has had with their horses.  The plots in her books reflect the reality of working with horses, and it is this down to earth quality that keeps the stories authentic and attracts so many readers.
