books and do not buy e-books and have your child read from a phone.</p><p>I believe in e-books only for young adults and all adults beyond 18. I do sell eBooks trust me; I am not against it...but it&#8217;s a NO for my children&#8217;s books.</p><p>As an author I have taken this stand even if I lose out on bulk sales via digital space....I stand by this belief that every child needs to be exposed to books from a very young age and help further the bond between parents and kids during bedtime stories.... if you are into practical scientific solutions then read up the real benefits behind this.</p><p>I hope fellow authors, parents and adults support this and encourage reading from books , if you can drop a like and forward this to who may be interested I would be happy and grateful..</p><p>A small step from my end to curb digital hold/influence on young minds &#8230;as a mother and as an author!</p><p>Hope you do buy one for your own grandkids or kids too &#128513;</p><p>Introducing &#8220;Adventures of Alice and Aurovy Series&#8221; - 2 books now available in all major bookstores across the &#127758;.</p><div class="instagram-embed-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;instagram_id&quot;:&quot;DXCUcxyE5g1&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Richelle Author on Instagram: \&quot;So much magic to explore via boo&#8230;&quot;,&quot;author_name&quot;:&quot;@richelle.author&quot;,&quot;thumbnail_url&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/__ss-rehost__IG-meta-DXCUcxyE5g1.jpg&quot;,&quot;like_count&quot;:null,&quot;comment_count&quot;:null,&quot;profile_pic_url&quot;:null,&quot;follower_count&quot;:null,&quot;timestamp&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true}" data-component-name="InstagramToDOM"></div><p>#booklovers</p><p>#blackwellbooks #ibooktopia </p><p>#waterstones#dauntbooks #thriftbooks #dussmann </p><p>#hamleys #targetfinds</p><p>#unitedstates #unitedkingdom #canada #germany #bookstores #parenting #childrensbooks #bedtimestories #bookshops #moms #libraries</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Libraro Reader Engagement Prize 2026]]></title><description><![CDATA[Richelle's New Novel EDDIE (unpublished) in Libraro 2026!]]></description><link>https://richelleauthor.substack.com/p/the-libraro-reader-engagement-prize</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://richelleauthor.substack.com/p/the-libraro-reader-engagement-prize</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Richelle]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 10 Mar 2026 06:25:04 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!-PZ6!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fdf0e3f16-634a-4a7a-8f47-d7799cf71947_1545x2000.png" length="0" type="image/jpeg"/><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><strong>Richelle&#8217;s New Novel EDDIE (unpublished) in Libraro 2026!</strong></p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://richelleauthor.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Thanks for reading!
