Bella's Very Wonderful Day
She missed the bus and had to walk to school. She walked in a fairy land the whole way. She had new classmates this year. She found a new best friend. What else happened to her on that first day of school? Did she get all sad about it? At the end of the day, was it a good one or not so good?
This is a cute story that goes back to an old saying, "If life gives you lemons, make lemonade."
When I Imagine
She is a dreamer. She wants to fly to the moon with her favorite doll. Dad says that she must grow. In her imagination she is not to little. She tells her mom she wants a unicorn. Mom tells her unicorns aren't real. In her imagination they are. What else will she imagine? Who will tell her, can't happen and she will tell them, yes it can.. The look on her face just glows. The author must have been a dreamer.
Here are two of the three books. The illustrations are gorgeous and fit perfectly are easy to follow for the reader. These books Feed the Imagination in us all.

Book 1: WHEN I IMAGINE - a sweet, well-written story but might only appeal to little girls with a good imagination. I liked it.
Book 2: BRIGHTLY AND GLOW - Loved it and think most of our grands 10 and under will love it. It is suitable for boys or girls and our 3 year old grandson is obsessed with the solar system so I know he will love it.
Book 3: BELLA'S VERY WONDERFUL DAY -A great starting school story - probably might be loved by girls more than boys, but suitable for both.

Well-done, colorful, interesting books.
