Local author has book signing Tuesday

RUMFORD -- The new shipment with copies of the book My Soul Doth Magnify the Lord has arrived!

The book signing for this book of inspirational poems, devotionals, and reflections will be held at Bartash Card & Gift from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., and from 3-5 p.m. on Tuesday.

This book, written by Mary Wisham Fenstermacher of Peru, was published in November 2012 by Westbow Press, a Division of Thomas Nelson Publishers. Also included in the book is a section entitled A Precious Parcel of Poems which includes poems and pictures especially for and about children.

Other books written by Mrs. Fenstermacher will be available for purchase and signing as well. They include the children’s full color books Pablo Visits the Desert (2010), Winner in the recent USA Book News, Best Books competition, and Pablo Visits the Ocean (2011) which was the finalist in the same competition. Both books were published by AuthorHouse.

These books tell of the adventures of a warm weather penguin named Pablo who sometimes finds himself in risky situations.

The Pablo collection includes plush stuffies—penguins and flamingos to cuddle—and a CD of Pablo’s Song with both books narrated by the author. The third Pablo book, Pablo Visits the Forest, is scheduled for publication in late summer 2013.

All are invited to come meet the author and view her writings. The inspirational poetry book would make a unique gift at Eastertime as it includes several Easter poems. The Pablo books and stuffies are sure to delight your favorite youngsters if tucked inside their Easter baskets. Those who attend the signing and purchase one or more books will receive a winter poem accidentally left out of the poetry book!
