CAMBRIDGE BOOKS PUBLISHES INNOVATIVE NEW CHILDREN’S BOOK

Postcards from Mr. Pish Makes Learning about the U.S. and Canada Fun


Cambridge, Maryland, 24 May 2010 — Cambridge Books has just released Postcards from Mr. Pish, a new children’s book by K. S. Brooks. It is currently available on Amazon.com and will become available through bookstores and other online venues soon.

Postcards from Mr. Pish is a unique children’s book about an adorable Jack Russell Terrier as he travels cross-country. The book features full-color photographs, documenting Mr. Pish’s grand adventure in postcards which are written to entertain and teach children about the United States and Canada.

Teachers across the country are hailing Postcards from Mr. Pish as a valuable educational tool. Elementary School Teacher Lynn Drayzen comments “Kids...and adults...will learn important details about each state as they join Mr. Pish on his cross country travels.”

A portion of the profits from Postcards from Mr. Pish will benefit the Arbor Day Foundation’s Nature Explore program, a comprehensive, research-based initiative helping children and families develop a profound engagement with the natural world, where nature is an integral, joyful part of children’s daily learning.
