The proofs arrived today of my story, Busy Bee and the Endangered Meadow. I just need to read them and then press the publish button on Amazon’s KDP platform. The story is already available for the Kindle and devices that run the app. It is also available as a pdf for PCs, Mac and tablets with a pdf reader from our website, www.junagarhmedia.co.uk. I hope that you like it.

Brown Bear’s Big Day Out
This is the second story that I published with the KDP platform. It is available for Kindle and devices running the Kindle application. It is also available for PCs/MACs and tablet with a pdf reader from Junagarh Media.
This is the synopsis of the story:
Basil the brown bear has a dream; he wants to go Dizzyland, an amusement park that he has read about in the newspaper. Getting there will be difficult as getting out of the zoo will not be the easiest of things to do. What he needs is a disguise so that people do not recognise him as a bear but as a person.
An idea springs to mind one day when a hat is blown into his cage. All he needs are some other items and what comes along next is just what he needs. It is the facemask of a famous person. The only problem is that he has to cut the nose of the mask off; otherwise it will not fit over his big nose. All set, one day he borrows his keeper’s coat and makes his way out into the world beyond the zoo.
It is a strange place, made even more so by the fact that most of the people do not seem to understand his English which he has practised speaking for many years. And the fact that people keep recognising him as someone famous, but keep thinking that the nose is wrong. Some of them find his paws hairy but this does not stop him from searching for the magical Dizzyland.
Basil promotes the publishing of his book
My book, “Brown Bear’s Big Day Out” has finally been published on Kindle and is also available as an A4 story and colouring in book from Amazon using their Print on Demand service. You can also buy a pdf version that will work on any PC/MAC or tablet that has a pdf reader installed. This version is available from Junagarh Media. When the book came out I started to promote it in the wonderful Hyde Park in central London.
My first three published books
Publishing on the Amazon KDP platform is easy and has allowed me to publish three stories for young children.
The Amazon KDP platform is quite amazing. I was made redundant earlier in 2018 and in the time since then I have been able to finish off three of my stories. Not only will they run on the Kindle and devices that run the Kindle application but Amazon has an excellent Print on Demand service. This has allowed me to create A4 story and colouring in books that can fully use the b&w line drawings both within the text and at the end of the story. The titles of these stories are:
Clever Dad and the Pirate Ship
Brown Bear’s Big Day Out
Clever Dad and the Space Rocket
I’m now working on a story called Busy Bee and the Endangered Meadow and hope to be able to publish it shortly.
