An article in the Los Angeles Times about my just published children's picture book
I'm hopeful some good news will come my way as the Los Angeles Times (Orange County edition) will have an article about my just published children's picture book "Haley's Friendship Challenge" in the print edition. Maybe the article will drum up some interest and spur readers to purchase it for the little ones in their life. http://www.latimes.com/socal/daily-pilot/entertainment/tn-wknd-et-louie-lawent-20180823-story.html
Hi Eva and Ronald,
Thank you for your comments. The illustrations in the book were drawn by Daniela Frongia. The cover design was done by Daniela and Dawne Dominque. Actually, the first 2 words of the article are "Louie Lawent" as it relates an experience from my childhood. Yes, I'm hoping the article will spur sales.
I followed the link and found the Los Angeles Times article. Like Eva wrote, publicity like this from a major newspaper certainly can't hurt, and will most likely improve your status as an author.
I had trouble finding your name in the article until I found it as a caption under the photograph. I also found the illustration on the cover of Haley's Friendship to be very attractive. But I don't know who the illustrator was… You? Also there was a reference to you, "returning to Wisconsin." That was interesting to me because I grew up in Wisconsin and also went to California to study for my master's degree and spent three years there in the Bay Area before returning to Wisconsin to teach college.

The familiar lament of dual-career parents raising children is, "I just can't do it all." The Libra Solution provides an alternative - a more satisfying and sustainable work and life approach - to the overwrought modern day norm.
