I read about Julia Suzuki in a piece about role models for young girls in the Daily Mirror. Below is a piece about her book for children aimed at 8-12 year olds about standing up to bullying...
YOSHIKO AND THE GIFT OF CHARMS.
Bullying is sometimes trivialised as “part of growing up.”
But some people can be damaged by it for much of their lives as they struggle to retain their self esteem.
Successful businesswoman and single mum Julia Suzuki has tackled the problem in her brilliant new children’s novel Yoshiko and the Gift of Charms, set in a magical world of dragons.
Yes – dragons are bullied too!
The main character Yoshiko is taunted by his chums at school because he changes colour and fails to breathe fire.
But he finds a way to handle the bullying and achieves glory, discovering his own special purpose.
The book contains a powerful secret, and explores a myriad of themes, which will appeal to children the world over – and their parents!
Everyone has a unique gift, and when we discover that talent we can use it to achieve happiness and success.
The book is out on April 8 priced £12.99 from www.landofdragor.com
