Imagination, creativity, humor, and adventure are taken to new heights in the highly anticipated second book, Leven Thumps and the Whispered Secret (Shadow Mountain, $18.95, hardcover) in the successful Leven Thumps series. The creative storytelling that helped Leven Thumps and the Gateway to Foo sell more than 60,000 copies in its first year is multiplied in this installment, and will open children’s minds to adventures never before dreamed. In addition, the series’ inspiring themes of courage, overcoming obstacles, optimism, and the importance of dreams are magnified in this latest tale.
To coincide with the release of the book, Skye is continuing his Imagination Tour, a national book signing and school assembly tour. Skye will be the keynote speaker at the Aspiring Young Authors Conference at the Henderson Convention Center October 28th. Call 492-6581 to register. The purpose of the tour is to connect with children across the country and share his three secrets from Foo that can help their dreams come true.
The first book in the series, Leven Thumps and the Gateway to Foo, was named 2005 Best Juvenile Fiction (Benjamin Franklin Award) and Best Audio Book (Book of the Year Award by ForeWord Magazine).
