EPISODE 647 - Christine Devane - Elephant Beach - A Children's Book That Talks About Being Shy and Being Open to Others About the author Christine grew up in North Andover, MA with her parents Tony and Joyce and brothers Anthony and Eddie. She was very shy when she was young and spent a lot of time reading. Throughout her childhood Christine loved animals, especially elephants. People started to buy them for her as a collection. Her grandparents, Eddie and Ginger, as well as her parents would bring her back lucky elephants from their trips. Throughout her childhood Christine always enjoyed trips to the beach with her family and grandparents. In 2006 Christine graduated from Merrimack College with a bachelor's degree in English and a minor in Elementary Education. In 2008 she received her master's degree in Elementary Education from Merrimack College. Christine would then go on to teach elementary school for the next 13 years. Her favorite part of the day was reading to her students. It was during reading time that she connected with her students through books. They learned, laughed and felt a range of emotions together. Christine decided that she wanted to write her own book for students to engage with, while learning and laughing. Since elephants have always been her favorite animal, she found it fitting to include them in her story. In 2017 Christine traveled to Africa with her mother and husband where she was able to see elephants living in the wild, which was always a lifelong dream. Many of the elephants were playing in the water and seemed to be having fun as they appear to in her book. Christine and her husband John have 3 children- Joey, Nick and Adeline and a dog named Sophie with whom she loves to read with. They laugh at her stories and enjoy trips to the beach together as a family. Book: Elephant Beach - A young girl is expecting a quiet, peaceful beach day of reading—but she's in for some disappointment. It turns out elephants love to play, especially at the beach! At first, the girl is annoyed when the elephants break her beach chair. Then, they block her sun amidst other loud and distracting shenanigans. Soon, though, the girl becomes intrigued by the elephants' playful nature. She still tries to read, but their games continue and can't be ignored. Having a change of heart, the young girl joins in when the elephants play volleyball. She surfs huge waves and even helps the elephants when they are scared. The young girl came to the beach to be alone, but she now finds herself surrounded by new friends. The silliness of these gentle giants amuse her, and what was once a plan to find some peace turns into a feast of fun! Come along to Elephant Beach, where distractions are welcome and adventure arrives with each and every wave.https://www.christine-devane.com/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

“Sometimes you need someone outside of your family and friends to tell you, ‘This part doesn't make sense,' or ‘Try it this way.' That honest feedback is what makes your writing stronger.” – Christine Devane  Christine Devane spent 13 years as a second-grade teacher, where she fell in love with story time and noticed something missing on the shelves—books that spoke directly to shy children. Drawing from her own childhood experiences as a quiet kid, Christine set out to write Elephant Beach, a debut picture book that blends her love of reading, teaching, family, and her collection of lucky elephants. In this episode, Christine shares how her journey from the classroom to becoming a children's author unfolded—starting over a decade ago, taking her through critique groups and writing conferences, and eventually leading to publication in a wonderfully unexpected way. We talk about the importance of writing communities, the challenge of finding objective feedback, and the personal touch of including a red-haired main character, inspired by Christine's own childhood (and later reflected in her daughter). Key Takeaways: Filling a gap for shy kids: Christine saw that children's literature rarely centered shy personalities, inspiring her to write Elephant Beach. The long road to publication: She began the manuscript ten years ago, honing it through critique groups, conferences, and classes before it was finally picked up. The power of writing communities: Honest, constructive feedback from fellow writers gave her perspectives friends and family couldn't. Personal touches matter: Giving her main character red hair made the story authentic—and later mirrored in her own daughter. Persistence pays off: Even after stepping away from teaching and focusing on her family, the story found its way into the world.

Galway are out of the All-Ireland senior ladies football championship after a heartbreaking semi-final defeat to Dublin in Glenfisk O'Connor Park, Tullamore on Saturday night (19th July 2025). In an enthralling encounter, a Hannah Tyrrell first-half penalty kept Dublin in the hunt, but Andrea Trill, with her first kick of the game, looked to have scored the match winner in normal time, only for Tyrrell to equalise at 0-13 to 1-10 and force extra-time. The Leinster champions edged in front before two second-period goals from Carla Rowe and Kate Sullivan put nine points between them.  However, Galway refused to concede as Trill and Olivia Divilly scored late Galway goals, but time eventually ran out. Galway Bay FM's match commentary team were Tommy Devane and Katelyn Hayes.

Christine Devane is a former elementary school teacher with a new children's book entitled, Elephant Beach. The story revolves around a shy girl who just wants to read her book while at the beach and a nearby playful group of elephants with other ideas. Devane hopes that introverted kids can learn to try new experiences and that extraverted children can be patient with those who may need a little more encouragement to participate in new activities or to make new friends. Also, Dr. Jason Bruck returns to discuss unfolding events in the Mexico legislature this past week.  A bill likely to pass the Senate would prohibit all breeding of marine mammals in human care.  Dr. Bruck debunks this poor policy-making based upon widespread false narratives about the well-being of animals in zoological facilities and the myth of sea pen sanctuaries.

William Rufus DeVane King was born on April 7, 1786, in Sampson County, North Carolina. His ancestry reached back to some of the earliest European settlers in the Southern colonies. His father, William King, was of Irish descent, with ancestors believed to have emigrated from Ulster to the American colonies in the early 1700s. The King family settled in North Carolina, became landowners, and took part in the political and agricultural life of the region. His grandfather, also named William King, is believed to have fought in the colonial militia during the French and Indian War. William's mother, Margaret DeVane, belonged to a family of French Huguenot and English lineage. The DeVanes had settled in the Carolinas in the early 18th century, escaping religious persecution and bringing with them traditions of independence and agricultural skill. Margaret's father, John DeVane, was a planter and a patriot during the American Revolution. The King and DeVane families were both known for civic involvement, and together, they provided a strong foundation of wealth, status, and public service that would influence William's future path.
