New children's book explores the lives and adventures of two six-year-old boys

Just Like Brothers...In the Beginning by Rudell D. Kopp strives to help children learn to reach out to others and appreciate differences

ATLANTIC BEACH, Fla. (MMD Newswire) May 20, 2009 -- The first of a book series by Rudell D. Kopp, Just Like Brothers...In the Beginning is about two boys discovering the value of their lives through a remarkable friendship. Colorfully illustrated by James Lynch, the book is meant to be enjoyed by the whole family.

Maurice and Bobby, two young boys from very different backgrounds, come to discover that they are more alike than they are different. While the boys' families seem to have nothing in common, the two children find love and companionship and share this discovery with all who will listen.

Kopp has said that she wanted to make a real difference in children's lives with an entertaining and enlightening story. Children, she feels, can be the message bearers of great truths, and in this tale of Maurice and Bobby, she shows how loneliness can be healed with compassion, trust and a willingness to be open to others. Says Mark Ari, author of The Showmaker's Tale, "Just Like Brothers...In the Beginning opens a series that promises to be full of gentle riches."
