Marilyn Randall is a newly published author with lulu.com and this newest book is her third in a series of five chikdren's books, which will be available soon. Her writing is in the poetry form and is appropriate for children up to approximately eight years old, but her fan base includes adults who also enjoy her writing style and story lines. Making her a unique author is the fact that she illustrates all of her own stories and creates the characters visually and verbally from her own imagination.
Ms. Randall's own words explain it best: "We live in a time that is very materialistic and can be difficult for children growing up and my children's books, while being fun and what children enjoy hearing and reading, also carry a strong message of solving problems through faith and overcoming obstacles with proper guidance. ELMER, THE CHRISTMAS ELF perfectly portrays the spirit of Christmas in a unique way and is one of my favorite's."
The illustrations are completely original, the book is well formatted and easy to follow and young children love the rhythm of the poetry. This story is being heralded as a possible new Christmas classic.
At 63 years of age, Marilyn Randall, formally a graphic art director in the printing industry, is well qualified to bring us these new stories, which she both writes and illustrates. Recently widowed, she resides on Whidbey Island in Washington State where she lives in a quiet waterfront community on the famous Puget Sound near Seattle, Washington. She recently opened her web site at www.marilynrandall.com where all her books can be reviewed and personally signed copies can be ordered. Her books will also be available online at www.lulu.com, www.amazon.com and www.barnesandnoble.com to list just a few or at her own lulu storefront at http://stores.lulu.com/store.php?fAcctID=4073880 where all of her books are available, including her new book of poetry for the adult audience titled MY HEART AND SOUL.
