Here is a comment, from a major Orthodox on-line bookstore manager in TX:
Dear in Christ Dionysios,
Glory be to God! Your lovely books keep selling out! It's a wonderful problem to have. We need to order more!
The following is a comment from an Orthodox bookstore manager in MN:
The colorful box of books arrived in fine shape and we've sold seven
of the books already. . .Someone who works in the bookstore and is one
of our chanters wanted to buy one of the Saint Christopher books after
seeing the bookcover taped around the outside of the box. . .and who
ever said you cannot judge a book by its cover? I had to read the
three saint books right away and the translations are very good--your
words and your wife's artwork complement each other so well and there
are so many layers to the text and the illustrations that the books
will appeal to children of all ages. I paged through My Warrior Saints
and that also looks good with such a range of popular and less
familiar saints of our church. I also enjoyed looking at the coloring
books/activity sheets. . .when we are ready to reorder, I hope that
those books are also available for sale. Thanks so much and I hope
that we sell out and have to reorder before Christmas!
Here is an excerpt from a review written by Elizabeth Williams:
"My Warrior Saints", a beautifully produced large-format (A4 size) 70 page hardback book, is an absolute treasure-trove for Orthodox parents. The book is printed on high-quality glossy paper, and is lavishly illustrated with full colour iconographic pictures on each double-page spread."
"A most unusual prayer book for children in large format with vivid illustrations in modern English. It contains such basic prayers as morning, evening, before meals, the Symbol of Faith, to the Mother of God and Guardian Angel, etc, as well as the Dismissal Hymns for five of the Great Feasts. The valuable Introduction and explanations of the prayers in the back of the book are a great aid in explaining prayer in general and the specific prayers (and Feasts) to children of all ages! A most valuable addition to any home, and excellent teaching aid for Sunday School classes."
Nina Seco, St. Nectarios Press
"St. Catherine is a beautiful book. The text recounts this beloved saint's life in language that is devout and intelligent yet simple enough for children to understand. The vibrant iconographic illustrations so richly enhance the text that the experience of reading St. Catherine is like stepping into a holy place. I highly recommend this book and look forward to seeing other volumes in this wonderful series."
Jane Papacostas
"Thank you for your hard work and dedication to the youth. Your beautiful work is greatly appreciated and valued in our church, in our homes and in our hearts. We can't wait to see what you will come out with next. May God give you the strength, the knowledge, the time and the blessings to keep producing timeless treasures. We will pray for you as we use your prayer book."
S.Zahar, NY, NY
"The Lord bless you and Ekaterina - your books, by far are the best! Do take care; God preserve you always! H Panagia mazi sas!"
Pres. Candace Schefe
Dear Dionysios
Your fabulous books have absolutely delighted my son! He is seven, and as I type this email to you he is sitting next to me hugging both books close to his chest. In the afternoon, we went to the library and my son insisted the books c...ome with us in the car. Then this evening when we went out to dinner, guess what ... the books came with us. He is ecstatic about the wonderful words and the incredibly beautiful illustrations. And I feel the very same way. Your books are such treasures. You and Egle-Ekaterine are the best! Your hard work and dedication to the Orthodox Faith will touch generations to come. We will most definitely order more books from you, and I will let more Orthodox Christians know about them. Our very best wishes to you and Egle-Ekaterine.
