Land of Sooj: Six Seahorse Stories Shelley Gilbert

"Charming children's book. The stories are beautifully written and morally relevant." Little, Brown and Company (Michael Pietsch recommended). Land of Sooj, Six Seahorse Stories, by Shelley Gilbert is a 67-page book of fiction for children ages 7-17. Land of Sooj is an early land where seahorses live. Each of the six seahorse stories is independent but all are connected by a seahorse family of God and Angels. Romantica and her Angel children look after and protect the seahorses. Each text-only, super graphic story conjures up vivid and beautiful images. Themes are moral and timeless and much needed for our children in our modern era. Drama and comedy are twin currents entwined throughout the flow of the stories. The six seahorse stories are : APOLLA SEAHORSE A seahorse discovers her purpose in life. CHERRY SEAHORSE A tiny seahorse finds her power. VANILLA AND CHOCOLATE SEAHORSES This is the story of twin seahorses. One likes the getting there, the other likes the being there. MARSHMALLOW SEAHORSE Sometimes the gentlest seahorse must protect her heart. YESNO SEAHORSE In the Land of Sooj, a seahorse always pays for a wrongdoing. SEA3 SEAHORSE To one seahorse, creating is everything.
