Georgia and the U.F.O. Downloaded FREE around the world

Wow what a weekend! Georgia and the U.F.O. made her debut on kindle and was free to download.

And, as they say 'the lines went crazy' Georgia the Cow was downloaded all over the world. Europe, Canada the U.S.A. everywhere, or so it seems. It's a lovely thought to imagine Georgia being read in hundreds of different homes the world over.

So to everyone who downloaded Georgia and the U.F.O. -  a very big thank-you and I hope you enjoyed the story. If you did then, I'm happy to report that Georgia's next adventure 'Georgia and the Spacecats' is coming along very nicely and as soon as I've finished you'll be among the first to know.

Once again thanks for making the weekend so successful.

Georgia and the U.F.O. FREE THIS WEEKEND!

Hello,
Doesn't time fly? It seems a terribly long time since I last said 'Hello' and to be truthful it is! All I can say is 'I'm sorry', and I'll try to keep in touch more often.

Anyway, onto the exciting stuff. Since I last spoke to you I've been trying to get my head around completing an illustrated children's picture book on Kindle that occupies the majority of the screen. (I know it sounds pretty simple, but not when you've got a brain that runs a mile when it sees computer code.)

However, after burning the midnight oil for quite some time, I've done it. All my rhyming picture books are now available in 'Full Screen Format' which means they look pretty darn good (or so I think) on the Kindle Fire, Fire HD and several other Kindle platforms.

Now you might remember from my last post, I'd just released 'Georgia's Big Idea' as an interactive book on iTunes, well, 'Georgia's Big Idea is now available as an illustrated children's picture book for early readers on Kindle. But what I'm really excited about is 'Georgia and the U.F.O.' the next picture book in the Georgia series will be FREE this weekend (16th and 17th of August) on Kindle.

That's right 'Georgia and the U.F.O.' is FREE this weekend and then it goes back to it's normal price.
What's the story about? Tell you what I'll check back in tomorrow and tell you all about it then.

Georgia's Big Idea

Say hello to Georgia the cow, the star and eponymous heroine of  'Georgia's Big Idea'.

Now Georgia is not you normal everyday cow, admittedly she's happy and contented munching grass and living by the sea but when she gets an idea into her head, she's a cow on a mission.
And this time Georgia's big idea is to fly!!!

Well as you can imagine getting a cow to be airborne is pretty difficult, even on a good day, so Georgia's journey of discovery is fraut with trials and tribulations, however, along the way she learns that perserverance is a quality that quite often helps you achieve your dreams.

Wonderfully narrated and already a winner in the InteractBooks international 'Bring your Book to Life' contest, Georgia's Big Idea is an interactive children's picture book that's ideal for young readers everywhere. Featuring many of the United Kingdom's recommended Key Stage 1 'High Frequency' words it's a beautiful rhyming story that will be loved by children, teachers and parents the world over.

Georgia's Big Idea will be available to download in the very near future... As they say 'Watch this space for details!'
