I’m delighted to share some exciting news with you!   

My daughter and I have published our very first picture book: Three Chilly Sheep. This playful, heartwarming story follows Ezzy and her three freshly shorn sheep—Heidi, Mighty, and Mo— when an unexpected snowstorm leaves them shivering in the cold. With creativity, determination, and lots of love, Ezzy tries everything she can think of to keep her chilly sheep warm. Filled with rhythmic language, silly surprises, and cozy illustrations, Three Chilly Sheep celebrates problem solving, resilience, flexible thinking, and the power of staying calm when plans go awry. Perfect for children ages 3–7, this delightful read-aloud is ideal for families, classrooms, and anyone who wants to nurture emotional resilience, creativity, and joy.

We would be honored if you would take a look, share it with others, or add it to your home, classroom, or library collection. [To purchase on Amazon: click here]. If you decide to purchase the book, it would be most helpful, if you would leave a review. [To leave a review: click here]. That’s important for helping others to find the book on Amazon’s massive site.
