So you might ask “Who or what is Green Bean?” In this heart warming story you will discover who Green Bean is and maybe find a treasure of your own.
Who is Green Bean
Rescuing Green Bean is based on a true story. The main character in the story is Green Bean.
Once in a lifetime experiences happen to all of us. Whether you take advantage of the experience and enjoy it to the fullest is up to you. Rescuing Green Bean is one of those “once in a lifetime experiences.” This event was enjoyed to the fullest and will be a favorite memory forever for this family.
I really enjoyed writing this story. It was fun to hear about the experience and to learn about this little bird.
The writing process of Rescuing Green Bean
I actually wrote this story 3 times. I thought it would make a fun chapter book. There is so much to tell about this little bird. But for some reason it just didn’t work right for me as a chapter book. So I went back to the writing board, so to say.
The second time I wrote it as a children’s book. But still it just didn’t work the way I wanted it to. I put it away and didn’t pick it up again.
Then one day I was thinking about this cute little bird and his story. That is when it hit me. The story came to life as I put it on paper. I modified, fixed and re-modified until it was perfect. I was so excited.
I then went to work finding an illustrator. I found Riya Santra. We worked back and forth on line for almost 2 months. Finally the illustrations were complete. It all fell back to me.
I carefully put the words on the pages and then sent it to people to proof read it. Once all of this process was complete it was sent to be formatted into a book.
Finally off to the printers it went. It probably sounds like a simple project but from the time I started until the time I had my first copy printed was close to busy 6 months. It is well worth the hard work and the wait.
I can hardly wait to share this book with you, my readers. Rescuing Green Bean is 54 pages. Don’t worry if you are looking for a quick read, because many of those pages are bright and colorful pictures.
