New reading material for children

Children's author Jackie Farrell held a book launch at the Northmead Mall, on Saturday, May 31.

The Crystal Park resident launched 18 booklets, made up of stories in her published book, ‘n Wenner vir Jesus.

Many of Farrell’s stories have been broadcast on the SABC and Radio Pulpit.

The writer was overjoyed at the opportunity to have the booklets published and the support she received from PostNet Northmead, who printed the books and designed the covers.

”The stories were originally written in Afrikaans for Afrikaans radio children programmes, but I felt the need to have them translated into English, so many more children could enjoy them,” said Farrell.

”For a while I had been looking for someone who would be able and willing to help with printing the short children’s stories.”

Anyone who would like to get hold of the books may contact Farrell on 072 927 9622.
