Just released: A Tractor Named Wilbur!


 Just released:   A Tractor Named Wilbur; Book 1 by Deanie Humphrys-Dunne
Illustrated by Holly Humphrys-Bajaj




I'd like to introduce you to Wilbur the tractor. Here's some information about him.

Wilbur is a small, shy tractor. He loves cutting the grass for Jim. But Wilbur is worried. Will Jim always be his friend? What promise does Jim make? Wilbur would love for you to take him home and read about his adventure.


Review by Hollie Anne Marsh:

 “This is a lovely story about a tractor called Wilbur, that should appeal to both young boys and girls with not only an adorable red tractor, but also Susie squirrel and Hattie the chicken.
What I liked most about this story, is it's an easy read, that brings the little tractor to life with adorable life-like traits, such as bouncing on his tires when he's excited, flashing his headlights and sadly, when tears trickled down his headlights.

This book teaches responsibility and appreciation of owning something like a tractor, with the owner Jim meticulously caring for the tractor each day. Also Wilbur's excellent attitude to trying new jobs; such as raking leaves and plowing snow. The book also teaches children to see the bright side and that changes in life are not always bad. A lovely tale, that will capture children's imagination and I am sure will become a night-time favourite. “ ~ Hollie Anne Marsh, children’s author

My Life at Sweetbrier- 5-star review by Kris Miller



https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/2045720014?book_show_action=false&from_review_page=1
Born two months premature and weighing in at just three pounds, by the age of three Deanie was still crawling. Diagnosed with cerebral palsy, the doctor's were certain she would never walk. Deanie's father made a solemn promise, if Deanie couldn't walk, she would learn to ride. And ride she did, straight on to becoming a champion within competitions. Born with strength and determination -- and a father who taught her anything was possible -- Deanie displays unrivaled courage in defying the odds stacked against her. An unforgettable read, Deanie's story is truly inspirational. MY LIFE AT SWEETBRIER is the incredible true story of a young girl who achieved her dreams through perseverance and hard work. A children's book that should should be required reading within a classroom.
