POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

I am looking at the two awards 'Lianna and the Hombit' won and I still can't believe my book baby did this!

Thanks to the CAP committee, Chapters Bookstore, and also to all those who helped Lianna on her journey from grief-stricken friendless orphan to friend and, well, award-winner! (I've been shortlisted for writing before but never won so I am beyond thrilled!).
Thank you so much to my wonderful editor Iseult, my friend and proxy Lindsay j Sedgwick, my writing pals Sarah and Lucie, and three of my favourite authors who so generously gave their time to read the story & provide testimonials, H.S. Norup, Victoria Williamson & Lucie Stevens. Thanks also to all the wonderful people who have bought, read & reviewed 'Lianna and the Hombit'. I am truly grateful!

What if the creatures no one else could see were the key to finding someone you’d lost? ✨🌿⁠
⁠
In Into the Faerie Hill (@pushkinchildrens) by @hsnorup, Alfred has always felt different, especially since he can see strange creatures that are invisible to everyone else. But when his new friend Saga identifies them as faeries, Alfred realizes the magical world surrounding his granny’s home may hold answers about his mother, who disappeared seven years ago.⁠
⁠
There’s another mystery to solve, too. A new highway threatens to destroy the faerie hill and surrounding habitats, and Alfred and Saga will need courage, cooperation, and a little help from the faeries if they’re going to save it.⁠
⁠
Blending traditional folklore with the modern world, Into the Faerie Hill is an enchanting middle-grade adventure filled with magic, mystery, friendship, and a journey toward believing in yourself.⁠

"Periler Diyarı’na yapılan bu harika yolculuktan büyük keyif aldım. Özellikle sevimli peri yaratıkları beni çok etkiledi.”
Thomas Taylor
Malamander serisinin yazarı.

Alfred’le tanışın. On iki yaşında. Yedi yaşında annesini kaybetmiş. Sağ bacağı sol bacağından kısa. Tüm bunların sebebi periler ve tepesi. Belki de masal gibi ailesi…

Alfred, büyükannesinin kırmızı kapılı kır evinin bahçesine adımını atar atmaz bir karga gaklıyor; iki siyah kuş, çatıdan havalanıp ona doğru süzülüyor. Yetmezmiş gibi bir de farklı yaratıkların onu izlediğini hissediyor.

Evin etrafı karanlık ormanlarla çevrili ve görebildiği tuhaf küçük peri yaratıkları da dahil olmak üzere, tanıdık olmayan canlılarla dolu. Burası tuhaf ve ürkütücü…

Bir gün Alfred, özgür ruhlu Saga ile tanışıyor. Bu kızın çevreyi ve hayvanları kurtarmak gibi bir derdi var. Çünkü bu özel dünya tehdit altında.

Ve yeni dostlukları sayesinde Alfred’i ürperten bu yer artık ona dikkat çekici görünmeye başlıyor. Dahası Alfred, buradaki perileri görmekle kalmayıp onları duyduğunu da keşfediyor!
Periler, periler tepesi, sesler, izleyen oymalar, zorbalar derken, ailesinin geçmişindeki sırların derinliklerine götüren ipuçlarını adım adım izliyor.

Yoksa perilerin annesiyle ilgili bir bildikleri mi var?

Kayıp Buzsakal 🩵

#ArkaKapak
Tessa özlüyor büyükbabasını. Birlikte kayak yaptığı anlarını… Bir de yıllar önce anlattığı bir hatıraya tutunuyor, onu hatırlamak istediği anlarda: buzsakallarla karşılaşma hikâyesini dinlemişti ondan zamanında.

Peki ama bu bir sır olarak mı kalmalı?

Tessa iz sürmeye hazır olduğunu hissediyor. Tıpkı büyükbabası gibi. Yıllar önce büyükbabasını çığdan kurtaran bu dağ elflerine yardım etmek artık onun görevi.

Arıyor, tarıyor, sonunda bir buzsakalla yolu kesişiyor Tessa’nın. Adı Gawion. Onun da kız kardeşi kayıp.

O halde Tessa, ona yardım etmeli. Veriyor kararını ve ardından yeni tanışan bu ikilinin hiç unutamayacakları bir macera başlıyor.

Kayıp Buzsakal, dileklerin iyileştirici gücü, güven ilişkileri, aile sevgisi ve onlara ait sırları tutmak üzerine yazılan sıcacık bir fantastik hikâye.

Keyifli okumalar. 💫
