Maybe it was because he loved his own dog, or maybe it was because the story reached deep into his heart and stayed there. From then on, Woody was determined to learn to write and become a teller of tales.Woody didn't care that he couldn’t afford pen and paper. He would use a stick in the sand if he had to. Woody trusted his heart and used his imagination to create his stories, which he shared with Rowdy, his trusty hound. Woody never stopped writing even when it was hard to and when life got in the way. He went on to write several novels and publish two books for children– including the timeless classic Where the Red Fern Grows. This story of hard work creatively presented by author Lisa Rogers and illustrator Susan Reagan will resonate with young readers and adults alike.

Eureka! Nonfiction Silver Honor Award (California Reading Association)Celebrate the creative process of pioneering American abstract painter Joan Mitchell in this beautifully illustrated STEAM picture book, perfect for all kinds of young creators.It’s 1983, and American artist Joan Mitchell is in her studio outside Paris, transforming her emotions and memories into a symphony of colors and shapes. Inspired by her friend’s description of an idyllic hidden valley in France, Mitchell creates 21 massive paintings—her Grande Vallée series —bursting with vibrant, energizing hues. But she doesn’t paint the valley’s flowers and meadows. She paints a feeling about them—abundance, freedom, liveliness—creating a harmonious blend of drips, splashes, and brushstrokes in rainbow colors. When the paint dries, it's time to share her valley with the world.This inspiring, poetic picture book about an influential yet lesser-known American artist provides a snapshot of a creator who deserves as much acclaim as better-known Abstract Expressionists like Jackson Pollock or Willem de Kooning. Author Lisa Rogers shares both the despair and delight Mitchell experienced throughout her career, while acclaimed illustrator Stacy Innerst’s bright artwork captures the movement and energy of Mitchell’s work, as her paintings develop from page to page.

Well, I would like to begin by saying that I am so grateful to Page Publishing. for publishing my second poetry book. It means a lot to me to be published not just once but twice in this lifetime. Also I would like to tell you how I got my inspiration from my first poem. Our English teacher gave us an assignment when I was in the fifth grade to write a poem. I asked her directly, "e;What is a poem?"e; She basically said to write about things that are important to you from your own perspective. Well, I was quite confused about how I was going to write the assignment. At that time, my sister Debbie came by to visit me. She brought me a special gift--perfume. I looked at the bottle which has the name of the perfume: "e;Timeless"e;. I started thinking about it when I surprised myself with my first poem titled "e;Endless as Time"e;. Time is endless. Such profound words as well as the poem.
