"PSA: DO NOT LISTEN TO THE AUDIOBOOK PAST CHAPTER ~47 WHILE DRIVING. It is hazardous to yourself and other drivers on the road; I nearly had to pull over.

"4.5

| I AM THE STORM is kid-centric. From tornado to blizzard to fire to hurricane, the child in the story views the storms from a kids perspective--each storm, the distractions adults offered, the aftermath. The storms are powerful, but so is the child. W ...more | |
“SECRET #47
When life gives you a pile of poop, you’re gonna get dirty—so you may as well roll with it.”

When life gives you a pile of poop, you’re gonna get dirty—so you may as well roll with it.”
― Maxi's Secrets: (Or What You Can Learn From A Dog):
“And it's stupid to have rules about how long you're allowed to cry and when you're supposed to flip a switch and stop crying. You can't even think. All you can do is feel. So how the heck are you supposed to follow rules?”

My daughter and I saw you on Learning Space today! We've really enjoyed the show and all of the time you and the teachers have given - it's been such a fun addition to our home schooling, and inspired my daughter to read Maxi's Secrets as well. :)
