Author S. A. L.’s New Book, “The Mermaid and the Wishing Star,” is a Captivating Story That Takes Readers Along as a Mermaid Fights to Save Her True Love
[ad_1]
One starry night, before Melina is to depart on her long-awaited coming-of-age week on land, she makes a wish on a star in hopes of one day finding the kind of beautiful love her parents once shared. To her surprise, her wish comes true, but shortly after meeting the merman of her dreams, he disappears.
When Melina finally discovers that a pair of evil witches have taken him for their selfish purposes, surely to result in his death, she must rescue him before time runs out. Melina learns that to defeat the witches and save her merman, she will need the help of her friends. Will they be able to help her as her journey takes her into uncharted waters ruled by a legendary monster?
Author S. A. L. has been writing poetry and other forms of limerick since she was thirteen and has always had a dream of sharing her works with the world. Growing up in small towns around Indiana, her hobbies became a huge part of her life. Not only does she write, but she is also very creative with other forms of art such as drawing, arts and crafts, and yarn works (i.e., knitting and crochet). She loves her life as an at-home mom, being able to spend her days playing with her five-year-old daughter and working on her many craft projects. Through her love of nature and travel, inspiration finds her in unique and fun ways, and the idea of this book was no different.
S. A. L. writes, “If I had known it would succumb to this, would I still have made the choices that ultimately led to this very outcome? Would I have chosen to turn the other way when I saw him and try to forget about his charmingly beautiful face? Or would I choose to ignore the lucid dream of our encounter, knowing if I followed my heart, I would later be forced to rescue him at the expensive of the ones I cherish? The most unparalleled exchange between the heavens and earth, a life for a life.”
Published by Newman Springs Publishing, S. A. L.’s tale invites readers to discover whether Melina will be able to enlist the help of kind strangers to save her true love. Together, can they defeat the evil witches that have stolen away others’ love for centuries?
Readers who wish to experience this mesmerizing work can purchase “The Mermaid and the Wishing Star” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iBooks Store, Amazon, or Barnes and Noble.

Dr. Leslie Merida-Gonzalez has published a new children’s book, "Mocha, the Ground Fairy," through Fulton Books. The story follows Mocha, a brown, fluffy guinea pig who attempts to fly using wings built from leaves and twigs, only to land, each time, skidding on her bottom, which earns her the teasing nickname from her fellow guinea pigs.
Merida-Gonzalez is a music teacher in Port St. Lucie, Florida, where she works with children with varying needs. She holds a doctorate in education with a focus on exceptional student education, a background she says shapes how she thinks about reaching different kinds of young readers. According to the announcement, the guinea pig characters in the book are drawn from pets her own children had growing up.
The book centers on Mocha’s refusal to quit despite ridicule from her peers, drawing courage, in the story, from her grandmother’s fairy tales. "Through Mocha’s journey, I wanted to remind children that falling doesn’t mean failing," Merida-Gonzalez said in the announcement. "Every stumble is simply another step toward finding the magic that’s been inside them all along." The publisher describes the book as aimed at encouraging children to keep trying after setbacks and to embrace what makes them different.
"Mocha, the Ground Fairy" is available in bookstores and through major online retailers including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Google Play, and the Apple iTunes Store, as well as directly through Fulton Books’ website.
Studio CarryOnHarry sees stories like Mocha’s as part of a steady stream of small-press children’s books built around a simple, repeatable idea: a animal protagonist, a visible flaw, and a lesson about persistence. The appeal isn’t novelty, it’s execution, and that’s worth watching for in any read-aloud picture book pitched this way.

Abagail Lynn has released a new novel, "The Rebel," a fantasy adventure centered on an unsuspecting character drawn into a clash between two worlds where the kingdom’s fate hangs in the balance. The book is published through Fulton Books.
According to the announcement, the story follows an unsuspecting hero thrust into extraordinary circumstances as tensions between the two realms escalate. The publisher describes the novel as blending adventure, romance, and themes of hope, with the protagonist discovering hidden strength while confronting questions about sacrifice, belonging, and what it means to stand against long odds.
The paperback edition runs 846 pages and was published in April 2026, according to retail listings for the title. Lynn’s narrative approach, per the announcement, pairs action sequences with emotional character work, aiming for a story that moves between danger and quieter, more personal moments.
"The Rebel" is available in bookstores and through major online retailers, including Amazon, Apple Books, Google Play, and Barnes & Noble.
For Studio CarryOnHarry, the appeal of this one will come down to execution: epic-fantasy premises built on a "two worlds collide" setup are common, and the 846-page length suggests Lynn is aiming for a fuller immersion in her world rather than a quick read.
