I have a lot of gratitude for your support as I reveal the cover of my upcoming children’s book! I am also so thankful and want to acknowledge a very talented artist for taking her time to bring Dune, a majestical and spirited manta ray to life with her beautiful hand painted illustrations.

Enchanting the Sea releases in two months, but today’s cover reveal is the first wave of something worth waiting for!

Research shows that children with ADHD hear far more negative comments than positive ones. I wanted to create a story that flips that narrative, celebrating their abilities, curiosity, determination and courage.

Below the surface, manta rays have the most amazing smiles. Below the surface, children with ADHD have strengths that can shine and rise like the tide. .

My wish is that this book will bring a Ray of Happiness to kids and new perspective in parenting and teaching children with ADHD. 🪸❤️

I’d love for you to follow along as I share the journey, sneak peeks, and the purpose behind this story — a celebration of every child who deserves to shine. ✨

Children often feel anxiety before they can name it. Ring Tail Raffi is a story about a lemur struggling with anxiety and through his adventure in Madagascar, finds support and learns skills to help cope with his worries and fears. Animal stories open doors to emotional learning in the gentlest way! They help children find words for their feelings, recognize courage and kindness and better express what they feel inside 🦋

What signs or behaviors might indicate a child is anxious, even if they can’t say it out loud?? Please share!

Raising awareness about ADHD is so important, and I’ve loved embracing that understanding into my therapy practice. With my new book, I hope to continue that work helping children with ADHD feel celebrated, confident and empowered to thrive.

✨My intention is that through the inspiration of a story, children can gain a sense of the skills the lemur learned and apply them to reduce anxiety. To understand the option of letting fear pass through and go on its merry way rather than residing within them, making it difficult to regulate emotions. My intention is also to help facilitate conversations, allowing caregivers to be safe recipients - creating a supportive environment where children can express their inner thoughts, while at the same time, enjoy an adventure in nature with extra fun animals.
