Pennies From Heaven


The latest book published by OMNI Book Publishing is a tasteful work by Mr. Samuel J. Elliott, a complete artist from North Carolina.

"Pennies From Heaven" brings us Mr. Elliott's poems enhanced by his photographs and paintings, and together they form a beautiful book. This is a combination of the visual and sensitive expressions through poetry; these are poems that are easy to understand and that depict his life as a talented artist who is proud of his land and heritage. From his great-great grandfather in the early 1800s, a Presbyterian missionary who rescued the Dakota Indians and baptized and saved over 300 in one day to other members of his family who were the first founders of the famous Underground Railroad, we hear their stories told by Mr. Elliott with pride. This is a testimony to always endure and never give up. It is his message to be heard at this time of trials for many people.

A grant from the Arts Council oif Hendersonville, North Carolina, opened the door for Mr. Elliott to fulfill his dream of seeing his art and talent published for all of us to enjoy.

A beautiful book to own and to give to others.
As a publisher, we do enjoy promoting our authors and their work. Check out our authors and their wonderful books here: OMNI Book Store.

Finding Fairyland by Barry Poupard

As a publisher, we enjoy promoting our authors and their published work. Check out our authors and their wonderful books here: OMNI Book Store.

This week, we are promoting a lovely children's story by Barry Poupard, Finding Fairyland.

When Julia saw the first brownish-white mushroom near the far edge of the woods, she looked past it thinking it was only a curled leaf. Then she saw another a foot or so away and she stopped walking. She scanned between the two and then imagined a line connecting them. She looked in an arc from there and found a bunch of three mushrooms and then another and several more even further around in a circle.

“Stop!” she called to McKenna who had continued walking along the trail. Julia saw the definite outline of a ring.

McKenna ran back to her and Julia pointed to the ground. “See it? It’s a circle of mushrooms. We found a fairy ring!”

Barry Poupard was born and raised in Michigan and has lived, gone to school, worked, and wrote there for most of his life. He has two kids, a boy and a girl, now grown and on their own. Though he has worked a variety of jobs, he spent the longest time working in a bookstore. He never considered writing books for younger readers until his friend asked him to write a story about her daughters that she could read to them.
