Kevin J. Adcock will be at Waterstones Nottingham on Saturday 13th August, signing copies of his children's book Adventures with Sir Maxwell. Every child loves the idea of going on a wild adventure, of finding treasure maps and formulating plans to take down the bad-guys. Throw in wizards, dragons, witches and jousting and you've got the perfect formula for a great kids read. Sir Maxwell is the perfect companion for this set of thrilling tales, because although he may not be the cleverest or the strongest knight in the kingdom, but his bravery and complete inability to accept his limitations make for an engaging and fun-packed romp.
Carol L. Steingreaber will be signing copies of Pants Optional at Beaverdale Books on 8th August from 18:30- 21:00. In her first autobiography, Carol Steingreaber offers a hilarious, unrestricted insight into her life thus far in Iowa, USA. The reader is a privileged passenger on the journey, invited to buckle up for the ride as Carol shares her stories from the sibling squabbles of childhood, to cringeworthy dating moments, marriage and various stages of motherhood. Her witty, "tell-it-straight" writing style conjures up images you can't help but laugh at, often accompanied by photos that speak a thousand (usually comical) words. Carol provides the reader with "UNconventional tips" on a whole range of themes such as housework and hospitals, illness and injury, Nerf guns and nudity, safety concerns and sex, friendship, faith and a great many more. Moments of eternal embarrassment are interspersed with flashes of comic/parenting genius, and every reader will find a nugget or three (or twenty!) to inspire them. A cracking read, and highly recommended.
