SO grateful that I have two books that I've written and illustrated available on line NOW! A picture book for the young ones and a chapter book for older readers! My picture book about a day in the life of a Baha'i Child called Kamal's Day, published by Bellwood Press, shows how a young boy studies some Baha'i quotes in his neighborhood children's class and is involved in other core activities in his home and neighborhood.
Glad to say that this book would make a great gift for a child from age 3 to 8!

| Me with my book-Kamal's Day, published by Bellwood Press! |
Join Kamal as he goes about a typical day in his neighborhood, spending time with his family, attending a neighborhood children's class, visiting an elderly neighbor, playing with his friends, and helping his parents host a study circle. Kamal's Day offers us a glimpse of a young person who is fully engaged in the community-building process, and it is hoped that Kamal will offer families inspriation and encouragement as they strive to be of service in their communities.

My book Babysitter Blues for older readers was also published (in print form) in 2014 by One Voice Press, after a successful kickstarter campaign!

Fourteen-year-old Evan feels like there's no tomorrow. He's trapped in an unending cycle of babysitting his much younger half-siblings while his mom juggles work and classes. His has little memory of his father, who died when he was young, and his mother has just divorced the stepfather to whom he had grown close. A gang of bullies at his school delights in tormenting him. But a sympathetic English teacher and a new friend, Nava, help him to see that sometimes what seems to be a hopeless situation really isn't.

I just wanted to let you know that I love Kamal's Day. It's exactly what I was looking for - a light-hearted book that naturally incorporates Baha'i habits and perspectives. If there is anything I can do to get the word out, please let me know. (I wrote a review to Baha'i Bookstore already)
