Celebrate the 60th issue of Reader’s House with exclusive insights from Barbara Pinke, Brian A. Plank, and Stephanie Suesan Smith!

LONDON, LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, January 9, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Reader’s House Magazine, the premier gateway to global literary excellence, proudly celebrates its milestone 60th issue with exclusive interviews featuring over 20 bestselling, award-winning, and emerging authors from around the world. Among the standout voices spotlighted in this edition are Barbara Pinke, Brian A. Plank, and Stephanie Suesan Smith, whose works have captivated readers and earned critical acclaim. This special issue offers an inspiring glimpse into their creative journeys, showcasing how their stories continue to educate, empower, and connect audiences across generations.

Barbara Pinke: The Heart of Storytelling for Families
In this milestone 60th issue, Reader’s House Magazine delves into the enchanting world of Barbara Pinke, an award-winning children’s book author whose stories radiate warmth, connection, and the timeless charm of family relationships. With celebrated titles such as Spring is…, The Fish and His Puffy Temper, and Dad, You Are My Influencer, Pinke demonstrates a unique ability to weave everyday moments into narratives filled with both heart and humour.

“Every story I write starts with the people I love most,” Pinke shared during her feature interview. From playful rhymes inspired by her children to heartwarming stories about heroic parents, her books foster emotional intelligence and family bonds. The Fish Who Wanted to Dance with the Stars and Dinosaur, Dinosaur, Show Me How You Roar exemplify her joyful blend of adventure and gentle lessons for young minds.

The magazine’s editors were quick to praise her talent, describing her work as “a celebration of parenthood and childhood alike, offering shared moments of laughter and discovery for the whole family.”

As Barbara reflects on the essence of her writing, she explains, “For me, story always comes first. I aim to create worlds children want to step into—full of laughter, imagination, and lessons that unfold naturally.”

Brian A. Plank: Literary Courage and the Pursuit of Empathy
Brian A. Plank brings the subject of mental health into sharp focus with his groundbreaking novel The King Who Would Be Man. Through his unnamed narrator, Plank courageously explores the challenges of living with schizophrenia, delivering a raw and moving narrative that challenges society’s understanding of mental illness.

Speaking with Reader’s House, Plank revealed, “I have made it a mission in my life to educate how devastating a serious mental illness can be. I choose to be a voice for those who are unable to speak their truth.”

The Reader’s House editorial team lauded Plank’s mastery of storytelling, noting his ability to “blend intellectual precision with an unflinching emotional depth, creating a narrative as thought-provoking as it is heart-warming.” Through his work, Plank hopes readers will reflect on their perceptions of those who fall outside the bounds of societal norms. “My hope is that readers begin to take an introspective look into what is truly the unknown and find empathy for others,” he said.

Stephanie Suesan Smith: Embracing Growth, Resilience, and Empowerment Through Gardening
In this issue, Reader’s House also shines a light on Stephanie Suesan Smith, a master gardener and author who has spent decades bridging horticulture and psychology to empower readers with the tools to grow both plants and resilience. Known for creating practical, region-tailored gardening advice, her expertise enables gardeners of all levels to flourish.

“Gardening grounds me and helps my mental health,” Smith explained, reflecting on her journey that began with planting onions with her father and evolved into creating comprehensive gardening guides. She described gardening as “a powerful tool for resilience, healing, and reclaiming autonomy—especially in food deserts.”

The editors applauded Smith’s writing as “a masterclass in turning complex scientific knowledge into accessible, engaging content that both informs and inspires.” From addressing pitfalls like overwatering to championing sustainability, Smith reminds readers, “You have to learn that failure is an integral part of gardening. It’s not about controlling everything but embracing the process.”
