McKay-Langley Publishing is dedicated to producing children's books that educate, enlighten & provoke laughter. TALES OF A NUF IN THE LAND OF DOON is their Premier Edition. The six-color cover introduces the reader to the Land of Doon: a land filled with love & light, & just a hint of darkness in the form of chocolate-eating Murcs & their leader Tsol Eno. The story begins with a struggling, cantankerous Nuf (Htrim) who has been sent to find a boy, a creature unknown to him. As the story unfolds, Htrim & the boy (Anthony) discover that their destinies are intertwined. With great difficulty Anthony succeeds in adjusting to Htrim: who turns his ears off & on at will so that he can "go within"; who is not an elf; who turns the color of whatever vegetable he is eating. With the help of Xela the Dream Merchant, Uncle Twinkle, Htrim's mentor & the colorful Nam Wobniar, a prophecy is fulfilled; a Nuf learns what love is; a boy learns what inner peace is; & the reader learns that children's literature can be non-violent, & still be an adventure in reading.MacKay, Judy F. is the author of 'Tales of a Nuf in the Land of Doon', published 1992 under ISBN 9781882748006 and ISBN 188274800X.
