Announcing release of Brookland Adventure Book Series for Children

Education through Entertainment for Children of All Ages

Brookland Adventures, a children's entertainment venture co-founded by Jenna Driggers and Umi Cavallo, today announces the launch of the Brookland book series of original fiction for children, The Brookland Adventure Book Series.

Created by Driggers and Cavallo of Brookland Adventures, along with Amanda Gracia and illustrations by Tracy Dockray (illustrator of Beverly Cleary's "Ramona" series), The Brookland Adventure Book Series centers on a young girl named Natalie and the profound journey she shares with a group of magical fairies. Brookland, their lush and beautiful home, is being threatened as its natural resources are plundered and its environment damaged. As Natalie and the fairies work together to save their world, they learn the meaning of friendship, bravery, and courage, and offer children an unforgettable learning experience.

The first of seven expected titles in the The Brookland Adventure Book Series, Natalie's Adventures in Brookland: The Mysteries of the Murky Water, recently debuted on Wattpad, the world's largest community for readers and writers.

About The The Brookland Adventure Book Series
In the same way that childhood literary heroes remain meaningful to readers into adulthood, we feel our characters not only convey charm and appeal, but also provide the spark to inspire conscientious environmental change.

About Brookland Adventures and CoFounders:
The goal at Brookland Adventures is to create innovative content with conscience. Through the stories Brookland Adventures aims to build in a sense of community, foster the idea of stewardship, diminish gender stereotyping, and teach children lessons they will carry throughout their lives.

Umi Kenyon Cavallo has worked for Random House, Conde Nast Inc., and Time Inc. as an art director for past 20 years. Along with Jenna, she is cofounder/partner at Brookland Adventures. Umi now lives on the island of Manhattan and credits her seven-year old daughter, Ali, as the biggest inspiration for creating Brookland Adventures. Ali Cavallo is currently in the midst of creating her first graphic novel, Transformer Girls.

Jenna Driggers has worked with children for 17 years and still remembers her first babysitting job, where she would tell children bedtime stories in hopes that they would always remember the importance of dreaming and believing that they could each make a difference in the world.
