Cynthia Kern Obrien Strikes The Heart Of Human Compassion In Her Latest Children's Book, Marky The MAGNIFICENT Fairy

Chandler, Arizona Dec 22, 2022 (Issuewire.com) - The latest book by author Cynthia Kern OBrien helps young readers understand that having differences is what makes them unique and lovable.

"We are delighted to work with Cindy," said Linda F. Radke, president of Story Monsters LLC and publisher of Story Monsters Press. "She is a talented author who has every young reader's best interest at heart. She continues to capture our imaginations with every new story."

Through the eyes of a woodland fairy named Marky, readers learn how much we all want and need to be accepted for who we are. Follow along with Marky the MAGNIFICENT Fairy, who likes to play in the woods with her friends during the day and watch fireflies dance above her head as she falls asleep at night. We quickly learn that Marky cannot fly with the other fairies. One of her wings is much smaller than the other, making her different from other fairies in the woods. That doesn't bother Marky, who loves her small wing. To her, it's beautiful!

Delightfully illustrated by Jeff Yesh, Marky the MAGNIFICENT Fairy (Story Monsters Press) is a book about believing in yourself. It's about self-love, confidence, acceptance, positivity, and compassion. These are important topics for everyone, no matter their age. This book is written with the intent of eliciting back-and-forth discussions with children at home or in the classroom. 

"I had many conversations with both children and adults while creating this book," said OBrien. "I am grateful that they were kind enough to share with me their personal stories of bullying, fear, anxiety, insecurities, and handicaps - both visible and invisible. Their stories were wide-ranging. However, the lasting aftereffect was the same. They also shared the kindness shown to them along the way of help, encouragement, support, and love. These were the most profound, healing, and precious memories long held on to."

This is OBrien's fourth children's book. She is the author of I Used to be a Fairy... a True Story by Granny; The Tooth Fairy and the Baby Elf... a True Story by Granny; and I Don't Want to Go to Preschool. The Fairy Queen Calls... a True Story by Granny. She finds inspiration for her writing in her grandchildren and their worldview. She aspires to teach young readers caring and kindness for people and animals of all stripes. True to her heart, OBrien's books aim to spark imagination and passion for each of those topics.
