News article about Being Jacob: First Day of School


Being Jacob: First Day of School, written by Suzy Koch and illustrated by Aidana WillowRaven, was released by 4RV Publishing the middle of August.

The day after Suzy picked up her copies, she gave a copy to a disc jockey who was talking on the radio about his youngest starting his first day of school. Suzy kept calling as she drove toward the radio station, and she was on line with the dj as she parked outside the station. She told him she had something for him.

After she left a copy with the receptionist and got back to her car, the dj was telling his listening audience about a wonderful little book.

A short time later, Aaron Wright, editor of The Sun, contacted me about an interview with Suzy and me.

The following article is the result of that interview.



The official launch of Being Jacob: First Day of School will be September 17 and 18 at the Oklahoma State Department of Education's Encyclo-Media.

Being Jacob: First Day of School hits the airwaves




Suzy Koch picked up copies of her book Being Jacob: First Day of School yesterday evening.

This morning as she drove with the radio filling the quietness, she heard Phil on Bob FM, 96.9 say his youngest son started to school today. She called the talk radio phone number and kept calling until she got through. By then she was parked in the radio station parking lot. She told Phil that she had something for him to go along with his son's first day of school and was leaving it with the receptionist.

Suzy left a copy of the book at the front of the station, and by the time she returned to her car and the radio, Phil was raving about the wonderful book Being Jacob: First Day of School, even mentioned 4RV Publishing. Thanks, Phil

Wow! What a way to promote your book, Suzy, a smart and creative way.
