New Children’s Book by Terri Thomas Shows Young Boy’s Courage to Follow His Dreams; Released by Dog Ear Publishing

Houston, TX, August 19, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Although J Mac loves basketball and hanging out with friends, it’s his title, Freestyle King, that causes fellow students and other people in his small town to make fun of him. This confident youngster decides his passion for musical rhymes is worth making a stand to prove to himself – and everyone else – that he is the real deal. A citywide talent show provides the chance he’s been looking for to show his true talent. This delightful children’s book relates the story in easy-to-follow rhyme. The whimsical drawings by Wendy Lynn Sefcik allow even the youngest children enjoy the tale.

J Mac Is the Freestyle King!, published by Dog Ear Publishing, offers a story of a young boy’s courage to stay true to himself, even if it means risking ridicule. His three best friends and his sister, Lil Mo, band together to help J Mac follow his dreams. The youngsters gain confidence during their moment in the spotlight, but a surprising turn of events leads to something even more wonderful than winning the talent contest: what can happen when you believe in yourself.

Author Terri Thomas, a motivational speaker and radio personality and program director based in Houston, hopes her books inspire children to believe anything is possible. Illustrator Wendy Lynn Sefcik, an illustrator/designer and owner of Broken Box Designs, lives in Ohio.
