About the Author

Throughout high school and college Kevin Martin studied a wide range of artistic media. His love for dolphins combined with his interest in drawing have helped Kevin write and illustrate his first children's storybook, Daniel and the Ivory Princess. With the theme of "Reaching for the Stars", Kevin strives to provide positive entertainment and encourage children through his series of Daniel adventures.

Kevin Martin was born on December 31, 1966. Kevin lives in Plainfield, Illinois with his wife, Laura and son, Elias.

Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.

From Chapter 1: Once upon a tide, in a faraway place, the fiery brilliance of the afternoon sun reflected off the calm glistening waters that hugged Daniel, a stout little dolphin, while he playfully enjoyed one of natures most beautiful possessions, the mysterious sea.

Daniel, with a heart as big as his dreams, loved soaking up the sunshine, daydreaming of one day becoming one of his heroes. Maybe being the first dolphin in space, or perhaps hitting the winning home run in the Deep Sea World Series...

Daniel continued dreaming these wonderful fantasies until suddenly from under the ocean's depths, a pudgy webbed hand broke through the peaceful surface and pulled him under.

Little Daniel would become a hero sooner than he thought, as his adventure was about to begin.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Story The Entire Family Will Enjoy, April 3, 2000
By 
Janet M. Volkman (Homer Township, Illinois) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Daniel and the Ivory Princess (Hardcover)
Daniel and The Ivory Princess is a well thought out story with a fun underwater twist to it. The characters are adorable and lovable. The story teaches a lesson on friendship, working together and being the best that each of us can be. From Daniel to Seavil, from Crystal, The Ivory Princess to Karky the shark the story finds the the best in each of them. It really is a cute story will an ending we can share and discuss with our children on many differnet levels. The illustrations are fun. Kevin visited my sons school last week for Meet the Artist Week. What a delightful two days we shared with Kevin and his wife as he spread his message that with a litle help- we can all reach for the stars! Thanks Kevin! My children love the book!

Kevin Martin is a fantastic childrens author who writes highly imaginative stories with beautiful illustrations. I was turned on to this book by a friend from work who has a son who just loves this story. I look forward to reading Kevin Martin's future releases as he is truly a children's literary treasure for everyone to enjoy!

2.0 out of 5 stars Saw this at a Ruby Tuesday restaurant, December 31, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Daniel and the Ivory Princess (Hardcover)
It is evident that the author put a lot of hard work and energy into creating this book; however, the story is rather bland and the illustrations are of amateur quality. If you want to support a "starving artist," go ahead and buy the book. Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend going out of your way to order it.
