The third book in the Andy and the Albino Horse series, Andy and Spirit In The Big Rescue, was published in late spring and is a wonderful addition to the series. K.C. is starting the illustrations for the fourth book, Andy and Spirit Meet the Rodeo Queen, this week. Once that book is completed, a chapter book with the four stories will be published for older (tween) readers.
Mary Jean Kelso and K.C. Snider will be in Winnemucca on Saturday, September 5th., for the Winnemucca Western Arts Roundup and will be signing all of their books. This will be a great time to buy their books for Christmas gifts.

Thank you, Mayra, for a wonderful review...
A Review By Mayra Calvani:
One Family's Christmas
By Mary Kean Kelso
Guardian Angel Publishing
www.GuardianAngelPublishing.com
Illustrated by K.C. Snider
eBook ISBN: 978-1-935137-34-4
PRINT ISBN: 978-1-935137-05-4
Children's picture book
4-8 year olds
Author's website: http://www.authorsden.com/maryjeankelso
Artist's website: http://www.kcsniderart.com
One Family's Christmas is a sequel to Kelso's earlier picture book, A Christmas Angel, also illustrated by Oregon-based artist K.C. Snider.
Once again, it is Christmas time in Oregon and the children are preparing to decorate their Christmas tree. Guided by their father, they venture into the mysterious attic to look for beautiful ornaments. They find a delicate red glass ball, as well as garland and tinsel. Then they discover a lovely yet old porcelain angel dressed in white velvet, its gown a bit yellowish from age. This is the same angel from Kelso's first book, an angel that has been in their family for generations. Their father decides it's all right to put the ornament on top of their tree this year. After all, "treasures don't mean much if you can't enjoy them once in a while." Soon they cut their tree, then later decorate it as the youngsters learn more about their ancestors and family history.
The story has a quiet, calming tone, perfect for those holiday nights of reading by the fireplace. K.C. Snider's illustrations, soft and warm, with pastel greens and reds and golds, bring an atmosphere of melancholy and old-fashioned feel to the merriment of the season. Though only 24 pages, the book has a lot of text. At the end of the book, there's a special section about genealogy and how kids may find out about their family history, as well as internet resources, a pedigree-chart and family record sheet. This is one of those Christmas books you'll want to keep on your permanent Christmas bookshelf, one to be read again and again at every holiday season.
