Bøger af Annette Andersen

Historien om miniatureprinsessen er en eventyragtig fortælling om en prinsesse, der pludselig befinder sig alene og fortabt ude i en stor skov, hvor hun opdager, at hun er blevet ganske lille. Hun får husly hos en musefamilie, som tager sig godt af prinsessen og finder en måde, hvorpå hun kan komme hjem til sin familie og få sin naturlige størrelse tilbage. Bogen handler bl.a. om at danne venskaber med andre, som man aldrig ville have mødt, hvis ikke man havde befundet sig et fremmed sted.Om forfatteren Annette Andersen (født 1969) debuterer med denne børnebog efter mange års drøm om at skrive fortællinger til andre. Hun har både tegnet og fortalt historien. Annette har siden barndommen haft en forkærlighed for at tegne og digte historier og har planer om flere udgivelser, både for børn og for voksne.

There is a longing deep in our being for connection...to others...and I believe, to our Creator. A hope for something safe and satisfying. One that brings completeness and joy into this human experience we are each having. God means for us to have that longing become a reality. Like us, He deeply desires connection. His pure motive of love and His complete ability to do so meets our longings and our incomplete ability. Magic happens. My hope is that you might catch a glimpse within these poetic attempts, of the magnificent One beyond the face in a manger whose hand is reaching out to touch your face. May some of these words be part of that tender touch. Annette has lived in Traverse City Mi. most of her adult life. Her interest in poetry began early in life and her own musings were scattered about in journals, on scraps of paper, napkins and whatever material might be nearby when inspiration hit. She began to pull together some of these disjointed jottings into forms while taking a college poetry workshop with the hope that someone might be inspired by them as she has been through other's writings. Annette won first prize in a writing contest at that college for her poem, "Midwinter's Dream" and also just recently won 3rd prize in Xulon Press's January 2019 writer's contest for her poem, "Unsilent Night".
