Tadpole Press …4 Kids., the Children’s imprint for Smooth Sailing Press, LLC introduces Judy Phillips' and Brenda Nichols' debut middle grade chapter book series, Miss Priss, Saturday, September 12, 2015 at Clay Road Baptist School.
Miss Priss features the writing of Judy Phillips, a counselor for the Huntsville Independent School District and the color illustrations of Brenda Nichols, who is not only a talented artist but also a hall of fame coach for Sam Houston University’s women’s basketball team, The Bearkats. The Sam Houston University Alumni duo is also the creator of the Beauregard Le’Moose Series, a Mom’s Choice Award winning picture book for children. Now they have once again joined their talents to create Miss Priss, a chapter book series geared for young middle grade girls.
Exploring the challenges of her age group, Miss Priss is a relatable ordinary girl with big dreams and a great sense of humor. In the first installment, “On and Off the Court” Miss Priss will learn that dreams are worth chasing, but in the process, challenges must be faced and the outcome may not always be as expected. Miss Priss is a literary work and a terrific coming of age tale that is sure to become a favorite amongst the girls, and their parents.
The series follows Priscilla Penelope Paxton, a witty ten year old whose interests and curiosity land her in, sometimes, sticky situations.
Dance classes, Girl Scouts, school assignments, friends and hanging out at her family's drug store, and the local Piggly Wiggly would leave any other person with no time for anything else. Yet, the thrill of basketball and joining the Little Dribblers finds its way into Miss Priss' heart. Though this interest will prove to be a dream that requires overcoming the greatest of challenges; Mom’s opposition. A task that will require ingenuity, perseverance and a little help from some loved ones.
Advance readers of the book have expressed great enthusiasm for the series and its coming release.
