TEMECULA, CA (November 26, 2012) - Phenomenal child author, illustrator and multi-awarded Natalie Tinti, weaves another tale of friendship in Book 1 of her Sewing a Friendship 2: Magic in Us slated for release in February, 2013. Tinti was only 10 years old when she set out to write the sequel to the widely acclaimed Sewing a Friendship, which jumpstarted her early writing career. From the innocent, but imaginative perspective of its young and talented author, Sewing a Friendship 2: Magic in Us recounts the adventures and misadventures of friends Sokron, Jonsy, Meeka, and Kiki in their quest to resolve the tragedy of Nina’s injured finger.

Nina and her friends get help in this magical journey of friendship, fun, caring, and dreaming from Mr. Windy-the-Wind and Sokron’s mysterious grandma Babushka. In this sequel to Sewing a Friendship, the friends continue to discover the wonders of real friendship while trying to manage the problem about Nina’s injured finger. The injury is a tragedy for Nina because it hindered her from playing her musical instruments. The new tale unfolds with one mysterious call that rallied Nina’s friends to her rescue. Using the powers of their imagination, the girls explored the world of fantasy they created in search for a cure for Nina’s injury. They use the healing energy of the legendary five elements of Feng Shui and the friends’ imaginative prowess to help a friend. Tinti tickles the fancy of young readers with a glimpse of friendship and magic, a bit of trouble, and a wonderfully happy ending.

Even before Sewing a Friendship 2: Magic in Us is officially released, it showed early signs of another winning read when it garnered a bronze award in Children Chapter Books under the Readers’ Favorite Book Review. Tinti’s first Sewing a Friendship piled seven different awards.
