I have enjoyed writing a couple of series for children to enjoy. This post will showcase one of the series. My first series for children, Drystan the Dragon and Friends, was written in 2020 and the last two of the six books in 2021.

Both series have received multiple awards and have been enjoyed by children and parents alike.
This magical series is for kids PS-Grade 3! There are six books in the series with a different dragon introduced in each book plus Drystan – the star of the series. There are seven dragons in all – four are male and three are female. This series has won seven book awards – two Mom’s Choice Awards Silver Medals, four Pinnacle Book Achievement Awards, and one Top Shelf Book Award!
It is a fun, educational series for children to learn letters, colors, good behavior, friendship, respect, and kindness toward others. Check it out today! Your children will love the rhyming and descriptions of each dragon. There is a poem that introduces a new dragon to each book. All dragons’ names begin with the letter ‘D’ and their colors will be in brilliant shades of blue, green, red, purple, pink, orange and brown. A fun series for kids to enjoy while learning new things at the same time. This series will keep them occupied and happy all year round. Children will love reading these books and they may become their favorite books at bedtime and any time. The illustrations and covers were created by my husband, John.

This is a magical series about Drystan the dragon and his friends. These dragons are colorful, engaging and fun to read about. They teach children the importance of friendship, caring for one another, being kind to others, and it’s okay to be different. All dragons are of different colors and their names begin with the letter ‘D’ – a fun way for young children to learn the letter ‘D’ and colors.
In Book 1 Drystan makes a new friend, Durward, who invites him to visit the Land of the Rainbows. While they are there they have an adventure. Find out what the dragons do to save the day.
Here are what readers are saying about this series on Amazon.
Writing this series for kids was fun especially since I love dragons probably as much as children do. I love to create stories of magical creatures with rhyming verses and important life lessons and family values. It’s important for children to learn these lessons early in life and often in order for them to remember and keep them for life.
Here are the life lessons your children will learn from my children’s books:
Louey the Lazy Elephant – Louey teaches children the importance of not being lazy and always listening to your mother.
Ricky the Rambunctious Raccoon – Ricky teaches children to always listen to their mother.

Jeffrey the Jittery Giraffe – Jeffrey teaches children to be brave and help others in need.
Clarence Henry the Hermit Crab – Clarence Henry teaches children to work hard and do the best you can do and be happy with who you are.
Lucy the Talented Toy Terrier – Lucy teaches children to be kind to pets, how important a pet can be and how much this pet loves us unconditionally.

I hope if you haven’t introduced your children to these lovable, fun and entertaining dragons with colorful illustrations by my husband John, that you will soon. I assure you that your kids will love them and want to read them often. It’s fun for parents to read to their children at bedtime or any time in order to bond and create a memorable experience that will stay with your children as they grow into adults.
Reading is important not only to keep your children’s reading levels up all year long but also it can increase their vocabulary, spark their creativity, enhance their health and wellbeing, and encourage them to become lovers of books. Let’s bring up a generation of readers and thinkers who will become successful and confident adults one day.
Jemsbooks Children’s books are available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
Please consider giving books to all the children on your list for all occasions. There is nothing better than to see a child’s eyes light up when you give him/her a book – even more so when you read the book to them. You are giving them so much more than you could ever imagine, e.g., you spark their imagination, heighten their creativity, lift their spirits, increase their vocabulary, open up a whole new world to them, enhance their health and wellbeing and encourage them to love reading. The gift of a book is worth more than gold to our children, grandchildren. Keep reading and gifting books to children. Let’s bring up a generation of readers and thinkers. Thank you for your support!
I feel pure joy writing for children and hope with God’s help and blessing to continue to write many more fun adventures for children to read and enjoy. I do enjoy writing for MG/PT/YA and 18+ too!
Thank you so much for stopping by to read this post and for your continued support. Come back again any time.
Blessings & Hugs! Stay Safe, Stay Well and God Bless!
