When You're Silly and You Feel It!

My daughter loved the book ~ Review by Amazon Customer

My daughter loved the book! She sang along with the song and even made additions to reflect her feelings.

Encourage the children in your life to express their feelings through arts and sports…

Book Description:

Max is confused and not sure if it is okay to have so many feelings-especially all in one day-so he seeks advice from his older brother Simon, who teaches him a song to help him feel comfortable with his feelings and being himself.

From the Author

Dear Parents, caregivers and loved ones-

It is up to us to teach the children in our life that it is okay for them to have many feelings, and to give them tools to express them appropriately. Encourage the children in your life to express their feelings through arts and sports, and show them how to use their words in a healthy way, but most importantly, help them feel safe when doing so.

You will find the song, "When You're Silly and You Feel It!" at the end of this book. Encourage your children to learn it and use it as a tool, and Sing along with them when needed --be silly! It is also a good way for them to become aware of how they feel the different emotions and how they show them physically, and learn how to identify what others are feeling.

Enjoy!
With Love, Rosa

A book of peace and quiet for a noisy world ~ Review by Jordan Aslett

As someone who works with children I am sometimes overwhelmed by the volume of choices out there when trying to find a book to read for my young ones. There are books out there about anything and everything under the sun; books about cars, books about animals, books about trains – you name it. The noise can be deafening.

Tatiana on the other hand is a comfy little corner of peace and quiet in the noisy, fast-paced world of children’s books. The narrative and pacing are slow, soft and incredibly charming. The illustrations are down-to-earth and pleasing to look at. The message is simple – sometimes you feel left out, but that feeling won’t last forever, because for the most part people care about one another.

I had the privilege of meeting the author on a subway train in Toronto where she told me about Tatiana and let me read it as we rode to work. Having read it, I can say it’s excellent and I highly recommend it. But having met the author I can also say that Tatiana is obviously a quiet labour of love, and I think that’s a rare and wonderful thing in a world filled with too much noise.

Book Description:

Tatiana is a little girl whose life is filled with sadness. She is faced with peer pressure and doesn’t quite fit in. Tatiana plans to run away from home but instead, runs into the hands of a good gypsy woman. Will Tatiana learn to shine like a star? Will she live happily ever after?

His fearsome appearance

 

Aba_and_Shamana_29_May_2014

Review by George Lindon ~ A beautiful and original story about the power of friendship.

It was a moving allegory that highlights that there is no obstacle that is too great to overcome. I feel this is a story that people of all ages will enjoy as there are universal messages that teach us about the values of family, love and friendship.

Guest Article By Cynthia L Floriani

Aba and Shamana a tale of unstinting devotion, love and friendship

The story is set in a fictitious Middle Eastern region two thousand years ago. The tale begins with the arrival of a mysterious stranger to a goat herder’s campsite, who captivates a little girl named Alimud with a story about a giant donkey and the young girl who cared for him.

The story is ultimately one of Love and Friendship between an unusual giant donkey, named Aba that has supernatural abilities, and of Shamana the young girl who raises him after the death of his mother Jenna. Aba grows from a gangly foal to become a mammoth donkey that reaches over two meters in height. He is often regarded as a beast, but his fearsome appearance belies his true gentle, golden hearted nature.

Shamana herself is imbued with a Visionary gift which enables her to interpret through her vivid dreams other people’s destinies and fates.

The story interweaves the Christian holy family bringing them back to life again, by depicting them in what may have been typical daily life during those times. It highlights the importance and value of family being the cornerstone that strengthens the ties that bind each member within it to the other. The story brings together two families through unusual circumstances which over time forms the basis for their unbreakable bond to each other throughout their lives and shows that being a family does not necessarily require being blood related.

Aba and Shamana’s unique bond is tested by the arrival of Jesu who is much loved by them both. Over time Shamana becomes disturbed by her terrifying, ill-boding dreams surrounding Jesu’s future, so decides to entrust her beloved Aba to watch over and protect Jesu as he grows to manhood. However, this means Aba has to leave her to go and live in a distant part of the country.

When Aba fails to protect the one he loves, with tragic consequences he comes to face such heartbroken despair that he wanders the wilderness in search of Shamana. Aba knows that only his beloved Shamana, his surrogate mother can heal him.

At last, the tale once again returns to the young Alimud, who on receiving a gift from the nomad before he vanishes from the campsite, realises upon opening his gift the true meaning of the nomad’s tale about the golden hearted, gentle giant donkey, named Aba.
