Title:  Tyme's Hope

Author:  Christy Condoleo

Publisher:  Eppy's Creations

Reviewer: W. H. McDonald, Jr. – AAA Founder

A Children’s Fantasy Book

Children’s book author Christy Condoleo has created a most wonderful children’s fantasy book that young children will enjoy.  Her book, “Tyme’s Hope” captures the essence of what makes good story telling. I think that adults will enjoy reading this to their children as much as children will enjoy reading it. The vocabulary places the book in the hands of those school age children who have developed their reading skills – my guess would be second or third grade level reading.

Chris Goguen creatively does the illustrations; there are however, only four illustrations in the book. Which works well enough for those children who can read. Younger children will enjoy having this tale read to them.

Condoleo takes the young readers on a journey through a complex maze; this story will fuel their imaginations. I give this book a rating of FIVE TEDDY BEARS! I recommend it for all elementary school age children. This is the kind of story that would make an excellent children’s movie.

Here are a few sketches of the characters from Tyme's Hope!  The illustrations are copyrighted by Chris Goguen (sorry, but I've diabled the right click ability).   

           

 Above is Hope and to the right is Tyme.

Since the book will be self published, I am not only the editor but also the one who put everything you will see together (from the copyright page to the back/front cover designs)!  It's a lot of work, but very rewarding.  I am also in charge of promotion (goodness help us)...so I can use all the 'word of mouth' help I can get!  Heh, anyone want a job?
