The Last Plum: A Mini and Milo Book

By Venita Dimos

Mini is wild about winning.

When she is one plum short for her entry into the annual cooking competition, she asks her best friend Milo for his last plum. Milo doesn't want to hand it over, but Mini is determined to have it. Will Mini manage to make her plum pie, or will she find another very special ingredient?

With humor and heart, this series follows the adventures of Mini and Milo as they navigate friendship and all its ups and downs, such as competitiveness, managing inner voices, learning to listen, and communicating effectively. Mini and Milo are endearing, charming, and relatable, and together they learn to deal with life's big and small problems . . . building resilience and insight through trial and error and friendship.

The Mini and Milo series helps children gain much-needed skills in building relationships and resilience through applied emotional intelligence.

Written with heart and humor by family dispute specialist, mindset coach, and mom Venita Dimos, and brilliantly illustrated by Natashia Curtin, Mini and Milo will become your best friends too
