Today I'm sharing some information about a children's book that encourages kids to learn important lessons like being brave, respecting others and understanding cultural differences.
One of the things I'm sure young readers will love about the book is that in Dandelion Township "there is no unnecessary parental supervision". The story takes us on a journey of a group of friends to a zoo with magic animals and follows them as the learn and have fun together.
About the book
The Kids of Dandelion Township is a story about new friends who in the process of discovering magic together, learn they have similar emotions although they are from different backgrounds and cultures. All in the context of a child's day, the kids unravel mysteries of A students, experience enchanted moments together and even invent ways to be creative while completing their homework assignments. Preparing the way for children to receive magic, the kids of Dandelion Township wish all children will believe in it one day.

Mini Interview with Nicole Borgenicht:
It's rare today to find an author who does nothing but write for a living. Do you have a day job other than writing, and if so, what is it?
I’ve freelanced and often worked part time my entire life! Currently I freelance write for various magazines. I also work as a part time personal trainer, and as a Creative Writing teacher.
What are some other jobs you've had in your life?
I videotaped the news, game shows, talk shows, a little sketch comedy and won two Los Angeles Emmys for shooting the anchors of the LA Marathon. I also shot camera for the United Nations of the General Assembly and Security Council. I have directed and produced a little as well. I wrote a commercial spot that was produced and ran on NBC regionally in California for almost two years.
Can you share some writing experiences with us?
Sometimes getting published has to do with subject matter not only talent or style. If you happen to hit the right topic, suddenly an editor will be interested. This has happened with several of my published short stories.
Tell us briefly about your book and what you feel is the most important topic/sub-message you share.
The Kids of Dandelion Township is about friends who learn they have similar emotions and thoughts although they are from different backgrounds. They experience enchanted moments together and discover creative ways to do their homework assignments. The most important topic is to be open to learning about your differences and similarities in a positive way. Also to accept that if something magical or spiritual happens, it is sometimes best to sit with it rather than assume others will react in the same way at first.
When they write your obituary, what do you hope they will say about your books and writing? What do you hope they will say about you?
I hope they will find my writing universal and that it will bring the spirit of joy and compassion to any time period.
I hope they say my creativity gave the world some new areas to discover and expand.
Do you have any book signings, tours or special events planned to promote your book that readers might be interested in attending? If so, when and where?
I would love to but Lisa my awesome illustrator lives in New Hampshire. So at the moment we haven’t arranged any.
