About the Book

This book has been illustrated for kids, BY KIDS in a way that genuinely enhances author SF Hochman's words. The story: tired of being last, the feisty letter Z visits Dr. Letterburger, hoping he can somehow move up in the alphabet. Dr. Letterburger listens patiently then gently guides Z on an enlightening journey to self-discovery. It's a wonderful introduction for children to increase self-awareness and understand their unique value. The story also provides a fun reminder for adults to be comfortable with who they are and what they bring to others. About the amaZing illustrations: the author took the unillustrated earlier version of this book on a 2-month mini tour to elementary schools in New Jersey. Encouraged by very positive feedback from more than 2,500 students and teachers and enriched by more than 250 illustration submissions, Hochman assembled this colorful "sequel." Well, since the story has stayed the same, it's not so much a sequel as a "sequIllustration." The addition of 15 adorable renderings from imaginative young illuZtrators brings the story new insight and joy. After reading the book you'll surely understand why the author is calling it a ZequIllustration! This book is also being produced digitally as an interactive book with audio and a quiz. The interactive quiz has been field tested at multiple schools and if you're an educator, you will be amaZed at how the quiZ engages the students! Check the Amazon app store for the pre-illustrated version of this amaZing app. For more about the amaZing Z and other interesting ideas and projects, visit www.doandyouwilllearn.com
About the Author: I produced this illustrated sequel or ZequIllustration partly because hundreds of kids I gave a pre-read to asked to illustrate it. I mean when second graders armed with crayons make such a generous gesture "no" is not an option. The other reason I opted to go the "youth route" comes from the personal journey I've been on the last few years. In a quest to engage kids by combining technology, curriculum and fun, I developed www.doandyouwilllearn.com. The premise behind DoAndYouWillLearn is to challenge kids to learn by doing, creating their own customized interactive curriculum-based computer games and creative projects. Having a book illustrated for kids by kids fit seamlessly within the DoAndYouWillLearn premise. The scary part was wondering whether kids and schools would actually go the extra mile to produce and submit illustrations. After reading to thousands of kids and getting hundreds of illustrated entries, I'm thrilled to report that kids may say they're laZy, but in most cases they are amaZing! Their "amaZingness" has helped make this craZy idea work. In fact, I think it could work again. If you're an evolved educator or involved parent, please let me know what you think. Email hoc@doandyouwilllearn.com or if that's too long, just hoc@me.com. I genuinely look forward to your comments. Steve Hochman, aka Mr. Hocklenutty Writing background: Mostly, I've been tapping out speeches for top executives and international motivational speakers and scripts for short films and corporate videos since the 1980s. I occasionally, give offbeat speeches myself. While that kind of writing has it rewards, it doesn't approach the uplifting feeling I get when engaging classrooms of young readers. Seeing their eyes sparkle. Getting serenaded by their unabashed laughter. Learning from their unfiltered and immediate feedback. As a volunteer BookMate since 2004, I've been rewarded by all that and more. I began BookMating by just reading to first graders. Then we started creating concepts based on their spontaneous ideas. A character by the name Mr. Hocklenutty (coincidence, I don't think so) developed and often appears in the stories. The kids love dreaming up plots and situations and they love it even more when I return with a full blown story. Number 1 on my bucket list: to polish up those raw stories and publish a series called "Telling Tales with Mr. Hocklenutty." I hope some of those tales will be worthy of your attention.
