Blip the Bit: And His Adventures in Retroville -- Now Available!

[Brian O]

Hi all,

 

My first children's book, Blip the Bit: And His Adventures in Retroville is now available for purchase on LuLu.com.

The book

 

chronicles a day in the life of Blip, and his 3 friends, Bleep, Bloop, and Zip, as they skip through a computer-generated town filled with classic video game characters. My purpose for writing this book was to create a book that retro gaming enthusiasts could read to their young children and enjoy together.

 

 

Front cover:

 

 

Sample page spread:

 

 

 

 

 

The book cost $15 plus tax/shipping. (If you select the "Mail" option, shipping costs $3.99).

If I ever make a children's book, it will be made from the freshest children that money can buy.

Oh! I should add, I bought this as a gift for my friend's daughter a week ago......he tells me she has refused to put it down since it showed up! She is 4 and absolutely loves the illustrations and keeps asking him to read it to her every night!
