Daisy Days

 

A release date of November 28, 2020 (yes, that's 'Cyber Saturday') has been set for Stephen Brooke's DAISY DAYS. This is a children's title, a chapter book, and set in the same 'meadow' as his THE CONTRARY FAIRY. The book will be available in print at our store and retailers 'everywhere.'

It will not be released as an ebook (EPUB or Kindle) and the ebook edition of THE  CONTRARY FAIRY has been removed from publication. It does not seem a good format for books of this sort. We do  intend to make both both titles available as FREE PDF downloads for anyone who wants a copy. We also hope you'll buy the print version!

The fantasy novel CITY OF WIZARDRY remains set for an October 10 release, print and ebook. This assumes  a hurricane doesn't come through and knock us offline for nearly a month  like Michael did the year before last.

The Fairy Has Landed

Arachis Press is proud to announce the official release of ‘The Contrary Fairy,’ a magical story from author and illustrator Stephen Brooke.

The sprite Marjoram is called a contrary fairy when she tries to keep her carefree friends from getting into trouble. Will they learn to listen to her? ‘Fairy’ follows the little folk on a day of adventures and lessons learned.

A beginner’s chapter book, ‘The Contrary Fairy’ runs to about 4000 words, spread over 11 chapters and forty pages, with 18 black and white illustrations.

‘Fairy’ is available, as are all Stephen’s titles, through The Arachis Press (http://arachispress.com) and our printer (http://www.lulu.com/spotlight/arachispress). Retail price for the paperback is 6.99; the PDF runs 1.99.

We have eschewed an EPUB version for this book as it is not well suited to products for small children.
