"LOCAL MUM PUBLISHES HEARTFELT CHILDREN'S BOOK"

Apr 7
1 min read


A Charters Towers mum has turned a real-life moment into something special.


Mum-of-four Krystle Sands has released her first children's book, Bashful Belle, inspired by her daughter's experience with shyness. What started as a simple idea has grown into a beautifully illustrated book, with the help of Townsville author Ian McIntosh and illustrator Brett Cardwell.


Now printed and available locally, it's just the beginning - with Krystle hoping to create a book for each of her children over time.


You can pick up a copy at Cunningham's Newsagency in Charters Towers or Richmond Newsagency.

It’s always lovely to see a local mum turn a personal experience into something meaningful for children and families. A heartfelt book like this can create special moments at bedtime while also giving young readers something they can connect with. Stories like these remind us how much care goes into creating a warm family environment, much like the thought and planning behind construction bali when creating a comfortable holiday home. It’s great to see local creativity being celebrated and shared with the wider community. Hopefully the book reaches plenty of little readers and becomes a favourite on the bookshelf.
