Her recent mindfulness book for children is called "Beach Day Blues for Wally: being present with uncomfortable feelings". This book is great for kids and adults. There is also a free parent / teacher guide that is a great support and way to richly engage children and students when reading the book.

Her "Find the Cat and More" book series make learning to read fun! She is a former elementary school teacher and has written the books for read alouds, beginning readers, ESL learners, and building on reading skills. In these books you will have fun finding the cat, searching for the dog, describing the cat and dog, learning what the dog and cat can do and more!

The books incorporate repetition, simple sentence structures, common and challenging vocabulary words and real photos to help connect to the environment. Additionally, each book focuses on a part of speech such as nouns, adjectives, adverbs, prepositions and verbs. The books also incorporate a little writing, drawing, and imagination! Finding the Cat and More books are fun for children and adults. I hope you have fun reading the books at Find the Cat and More.
