“In the fall of 2007, I attended a parent teach conference for my five-year-old daughter Mia”, said Lari Durnil. “Although she was thriving in most areas, she was struggling with her recognition of letters and sounds. We decided a fun way to help Mia with her reading skills would be to make our own alphabet book.”
Durnil is the owner of Bunny Patch Books, LLC., and co-author of the first publication, If I Were A Letter. Enlisting the help of her two daughters, Mia and Ana, her mother, Nancy Bellard, and her highly talented artist friend Kristin Davis, she has begun publishing a series of children’s books, specifically designed to entertain, enlighten and educate young readers.
“I had always wanted to publish a children’s book,” said Durnil. “Mia’s reading project seemed like the perfect opportunity.”
Durnill worked with her daughter, Mia, to make up rhymes for the different sounds of each letter. She then contacted Bellard and Davis and asked them to help come up with illustrations for each letter.
“We went through the entire alphabet,” said Durnill, “and when we were finished, we had a book”
Durnill also has a second book co-authored with her older daughter, Ana, called Feelings are Important. Bunny Patch Book, LLC. Will also soon launch an entire line of dolls and backpacks to correspond with the books.
