Review

'Every parent wants their child to develop skills and thoughts that will keep them physically and emotionally safe during times of trouble or stress. Being a cancer survivor and mother herself, it was a natural progression for Roula to write a book for children, teaching just that; resilience of body and mind through a journey of magic and imagination. As a psychologist of more than 20 years, I know that emotional resilience is taught and developed in early childhood, by parents who care enough to expose their children to life's lessons as they present themselves, or through the safe space of imagination and story. Chloe's magical journey read to, or with, your child, provides just such an opportunity. Beautiful pictures to stimulate imagination. Big words thrown in now and then to improve vocabulary. And twists and turns in the tale to engage enquiring minds.' 'Thank you Roula for another book that selflessly shares the lessons you have had to deal with in life, all with the aim of building resilience and achieving goals when life becomes challenging.'
