For Freedom, a new children’s book being released in June 2006 by DreamCastle Publishing and a Book Adventure approved title, offers an inspiring glimpse of growing up in a military family through the eyes of a child. Michele Snyder, the daughter of a former Vietnam POW and the book’s author shares, “For Freedom was inspired by a family visit during the summer of 2005. Visiting a military family and staying on a Marine base offered a rare opportunity for a civilian to experience a small fraction of the military lifestyle. The visit brought about a true appreciation for the sacrifices military families, must make for their fellow Americans.”
In addition to the tour, projects have been coordinated to coincide with the visits across the USA. Letters for Our US Service Men & Women, a project collecting letters and patriotic coloring pictures from children & adults from across the US, as well as the handmade cards for the Books & Hope project, made for the children of the Gulf Coast are and important and impacting part of the tour. According to Michele Snyder, “Good citizenship is something everyone can contribute to America, despite age.”
**The release of the book will launch a national tour visiting schools, military bases and community events, in an effort to get this patriotic and relevant book into the hands of children & families, people young and old. Each of these visits will offer a book signing by Michele Snyder, with a portion of each book sold going to an educational, family or community fund, offering a great opportunity for fundraising. Financial contributions will also be made to military organizations supporting US military families and veterans.
Organizations and Businesses are encourages to participate in the “Books & Hope” project for the Children of the Gulf Coast. DreamCastle Publishing is requesting that individuals participate as well. “Books & Hope is a great way to give to the children of the community and will enable the For Freedom National Book Tour to bring something special to the families of the devastated region,” shares Michele Snyder
“For Freedom is an inspiring tribute to our military families. The children of our military should know that we, as a country, are grateful for their families’ sacrifices for our freedom and safety.” says Gena S. Miller a Library Media Specialist from Omaha, Nebraska.
Supporters for the tour are needed for the project’s success and DreamCastle Publishing would like to recognize Young Marines, Joe Riggio – Networking by Images and Major Wayne Morris for their kind support, along with many others for their guidance.
Michele Snyder has joined on with military web mag. as a monthly columnist for their online magazine. She will be discussing military family issues and lifestyles in the column, including a perceptive view on how families deal with deployment of a loved one and the life issues many military families have to deal with once they are overseas.
