An illustration from the picture book MY MOM IS LIKE A KITE features a woman with long black flowing hair covered by blankets in bed. A child reaches out to her mother holding a bucket.
🪁 In MY MOM IS LIKE A KITE, a child touchingly narrates the ups and downs of living with a parent who experiences mental illness.
“A breath of fresh air for those seeking to explain mental illness to their little ones.” — Kirkus Reviews

Art Coulson and Winona Nelson's ALL THE STARS IN THE SKY received a shout out in SJL's "31 Days, 31 Lists: 2025 Unconventional Children’s Books."
The article specifically calls out an indigneous beadwork tradition used in the illustrations.

We loved Vanesa Josevski's review of the Maddi’s Fridge app!
"Max was instantly excited… he recognized it from school." He loved the animations and games.
Vanesa called it "a beautiful and important story" and Max gave it a huge thumbs up!

An illustration depicting a whimsical booknook scene. A mouse character balancing many books is at the center, surrounded by a grasshopper reading, two birds engrossed in a book, and a cheerful wyrm, a spider and ladybird. The backdrop features bookshelves and warm lighting, enhancing the cozy atmosphere.

Nasty loves the library and even more so when it rains. That’s when all her friends come to visit, to read and dream together. They light tiny lamps and dive into the pages of their favorite books.
