Flagler County author L.R. Corbett has released her latest children's book, "Don't Be Late, The Plane is at the Gate," expanding her collection of travel-inspired stories for young readers.

The book follows Joey, a young boy whose procrastination and distractions lead to a chaotic airport adventure, teaching valuable lessons about responsibility and time management through his travel misadventures.

Corbett's path to children's literature took an unexpected turn after she wrote a special book as a gift for children she planned to visit at a Kenyan children's home.

"After seeing how well the children received the book during our day of reading and coloring together, I discovered my true passion," Corbett said in a press release.

Corbett also writes adult romantic suspense novels under a pen name. Her travel-themed collection — which includes stories about New York City, National Parks and road trip adventures — also features companion coloring books with activity books in development.

Corbett regularly visits schools and libraries to share her adventures and engage in coloring activities with young readers. For more information about her books and appearances, visit Travelcolorrepeat.com.
