"A Christmas Love Story: Nicholas Nutcracker & Brittany Ballerina"
Spokane, Jun 29, 2020 (Issuewire.com) - In time for "Christmas in July," A Christmas Love Story: Nicholas Nutcracker & Brittany Ballerina is set for publication July 1, 2020. The book is geared toward kids ages four to ten. It speaks to the magic of Christmas and the search for true love.
Nicholas Nutcracker, a retired toy-soldier from a small village in Germany, and Brittany Ballerina, a world-renowned ornament ballet dancer, are both in search of their true love. "I will find my true love with 'word-of-mouth marketing!'" exclaims Nicholas determined to find his true love this Christmas. Will they find true love before they go back into their boxes in the attic for another year?
"Kids with good reading skills or read-aloud parents will find "A Christmas Love Story" a warm tale of ballet aspirations, romance, and overcoming obstacles set against a holiday backdrop that is beautifully rendered, nicely illustrated with colorful drawings by Anastasiia Khmelevska, and just the ticket for an original holiday read." ~ D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review April 6, 2020
Christmas books need a long-lead-time for stores and libraries to get new holiday offerings onto their radar. That is why the author picked July 1, 2020, for publication. Due to the pandemic, additional delays in printing and odd store hours may push more people onto the internet to shop. Grandparents may be deprived of in-person visits this year. Zoom bedtime stories and online book orders might be the new normal.
But, soon it will be time to start stashing some presents (like a happy Christmas storybook) for the kids and grandkids during "Christmas in July." Available online at most retailers. www.achristmaslovestory.com.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: After watching Hallmark Christmas movies more times than she cares to admit, Maureen McCabe reached maximum "Christmas Spirit" saturation by the end of December 2019. Inspired by cute clip art of a nutcracker and ballerina ornament hanging from a branch, McCabe decided to write her first children's book about these two ornaments and give them a backstory. That is how the main characters, Nicholas Nutcracker and Brittany Ballerina, came to be.
McCabe is currently co-authoring "Murray Korman's Vintage Babes of Broadway," featuring stories and never-before-seen photographs of well-known photographer and entertainers from the 1930s to 1961. The book scheduled for release in early 2021 should attract history and photography lovers. In 2011, McCabe published "Moon Over Vaudeville," which took a nostalgic look at her father's show business career as a tap dancer.
