“Inhale, exhale, calm down and replenish with a small prickly cactus, the unusual but loveable character of this book. The text is simple and rhythmic and is perfectly matched with illustrations in pleasing, soothing colors. Recommended for sharing one-on-one or as an interactive read-aloud - especially great if you want to settle down a boisterous, energetic child or group!”

“I believe children are natural philosophers, artists, and enlightened beings”
Each story I write is a love story.
