About the Book
When my nieces and nephews were younger, they used to ask me to read them a bed time story, and when the book had ended, they still wanted more so I would make up some stories of my own and they would be in the stories of course. When they heard their names in the stories their little faces lit up like Christmas trees and when I saw their little faces smiling I knew that someday I would be writing my own book. So if it were not for my nieces and nephews I probably never would have written this book and also I wanted to leave behind a special gift for all my nieces and nephews. Since I do not have any children of my own, I am truly blessed to have all of them in my life. They are my inspiration and my muses. So if you like to read fantasy or action and adventure stories or watch sci-fi movies with heroes, heroines, monsters and mystical creatures, you will love The Four Magical Powers.
