It's a story I wrote a little while ago, and I thought it was about time I did something with it. So I have published it to amazon kindle (which means that anyone with an ipad or phone can also read it, and there is even a kindle for PC service now available).
I'd like to introduce you to Brown Ben...
Brown Ben is a magical teddy bear, who finds his way to children who need him, whether that's because they're poorly, they're sad or they just need a cuddle.
The plan is to have a series of books, with Brown Ben visiting children struggling with all the different issues that kids have to deal with. This is the introductory book, and I'm so in love with it (even though I do say so myself *laughs*)
I love the cover - a friend from school is now an illustrator so I asked her to bring Ben to life, and I think she captured him perfectly.
I'm donating 50% of the proceeds from the sale of the book to an amazing charity - The Children's Trust. It's based in Surrey and provides services to children with severe disabilities, and is a specialist center for acquired brain injuries.
If you would like to know more, you can find the amazon page here. If you do read it, I'd love to know what you think!
Congratulations, it's such a lovely idea (both the story and the fact you're donating half the proceeds to a good cause). Good luck, I hope it becomes a best seller.
