What a delight to stumble across a reading of Myrtle the Purple Turtle by Teacher Marnie in Idaho. She does a great job of the reading! (I’ve just discovered that some people can access the link and some can’t – not sure why. You may need to click it twice.)
We know there are other teachers who have read this book (and the others in the series) to their classes but this is the first one we’ve actually seen on video!
Wishing you all a lovely week.
Cynthia.
How fun! And what a thrill it must be to have watch and listen to a teacher read one of your books. And, naturally, Marnie is dressed in purple.
I didn’t find the link and reloaded the page again. I’ve heard that some countries don’t allow the links. I tried to find it in my reader as well.
What a fabulous teacher to have found your Myrtle the Purple Turtle and use it in her class. I love the way she ends saying we are all different and therefore special. Lucky kids!
Thanks, Diane! Happy spring!
What a great feeling that must have been!
It sounds like she does a fabulous job with her reading. I too don’t have a link in this post. Kudos on your book and messages continuing to be spread Cynthia.
Myrtle goes on her way in giant paces, Cynthia .
Love ❤

How wonderful!
Cynthia, even with all cookies enabled I am not finding anything to click on for the video of the reading, but I am glad to see Myrtle is on the job of educating the young. She is an exceptional turtle!
I enjoyed watching the video of Marnie reading Myrtle the Turtle. I’m so glad I got to experience your book! Children must love its message of acceptance and the wonderful illustrations.
Thanks, Liz.
You’re welcome, Cynthia.
How wonderful, Cynthia, and well deserved too. You bring such joy to your readers. I loved reading A good home 🙂
Thank you!

Thanks, Curt. Hope you and the missus are well.
That we are, Cynthia. We’ve even had our shots. We aren’t kicking up our heels yet, but at least we can think about doing so. 🙂
So satisfying and rewarding! Yay Myrtle.. and you.
That’s awesome! I bet it was a real buzz watching it too. I have some audiobooks of my stuff now and listening to them still blows my mind! Congratulations. It’s just lovely.
Cheers

Thanks, MT. Tell where to get your audiobooks.
Pretty much anywhere although the royalty Gareth and I get varies hugely. It’s about 6% each on audible. Many libraries will get them for you if you ask. The royalties vary on those. We get and 20-25% each on Kobo, Google play and iBooks of people but the right version. I also sell direct and we get about 45% each for those. There’s information about the books and links to buy here: https://www.hamgee.co.uk/audiobooks 🙂
How very special!
