FOR READING THROUGHOUT THE YEAR
WITH WYNTER SKYE BOOK SERIES
By Arthia Nixon
Valencia Weaver, a doting
grandmother who has
dedicated herself to nursing,
has started a new career
as a children’s author, debuting her
first Christmas-themed book ‘Wynter
Skye’s First Christmas With Family’.
The book was made available on online
platforms like Amazon on December
13, 2022.
Like the other books in the Wynter Skye
Adventure series illustrated by Guarav
Bhatnagar, the lead protagonist is
based on Weaver’s own granddaughter.
Her target audience is kindergarten
and early elementary-aged children
and she encourages parents and
grandparents to read the books to
them as a way to bond.
“As the title indicates, ‘Wynter Skye’s
First Christmas With Family’ focuses
on Christmas,” says Weaver. “She
learns about Santa, the elves, the
importance of family and that is more
than just giving and receiving gifts.”
