MAITLAND, FL—Writers Edit Engel and Alan
McBrearty help Santa tell a new story this year in their book Where
Elves Come From ($18.49, paperback, 9781545615034; $29.99, hardcover, 9781545615041). Within the pages of this new classic, readers
will see that this is no ordinary fairy tale. This children’s book is based on
real-life events mixed with the magic of the unknown and centers on a family
whose child is stricken with cancer. Their faith is tested, but they learn the
importance of love, happiness, gratitude, and strong family bonds.
“We wrote this book as a dedication to
children with cancer and to create a legend for Santa’s elves,” the authors
explain. “Although intended as a bedtime storybook, it is a very educational
book where each of the sixteen chapters contains a fundamental good moral to
learn from, and most episodes have one of our favorite bedtime prayers to enjoy
before going to sleep.”
Both Edit Engel and
Alan McBrearty come from single-parent family homes with parents who always
encouraged them to go after their dreams, which was instrumental in their
lives. They are currently working on their second self-improvement book, which
will be out by January 1, 2018 and will be titled Mini-Habits and Mini-Steps: An Incremental Guide to the Ultimate
Mindset and Getting What You Want.
