The House and Homestead

Hi there,
My name is David R. Rivers, and I just recently came across the magazine. I love it! and will be following. I also wanted to let you know I have a couple of new books out on Amazon worldwide that I think would be great for Homeschool Mamas and Children. I am a Homesteader, Executive Chef, and Author and I have enjoyed the lifestyle for many years-so I just had to write about it.
They are : (Amazon)
"The Clucking Avengers:A Chicken Superhero Storybook" (an interactive learning book)
and "Bristol Kitty's Big Adventures: On the Farm" -(a Choose your own path book)

These stories are based on the animals at my place.
If interested, I can send a copy of both of my books for you to review and maybe advertise in the magazine or in a blog post? I'm just a regular guy that likes to write and I'm hoping that my books will inspire Homesteaders to Homeschool their children somewhere.
If interested, please let me know.
I look forward to your response,
