Praise for April's Window:

"This book is a beautiful time capsule of special moments." Bambini Bookworms

An excerpt from the story:

Square window, wide window, window up high.

My window, your window, windows with blinds.

Windows with curtains and windows with lights,

Windows with sleeping cats curled up inside.

Windows where people are watering plants,

Windows where people are learning to dance,

Learning to sew, learning to cook, falling

In love with the words of a book. The sounds

Of a song that float through

the air, the smell of people

cooking in homes everywhere...

Why do we need a kids’ book about curiosity?

To be curious is to grow, to learn, to be inspired; to never understand the feelings of boredom or idle-mindedness. This is the world of the child, and curiosity is its lifeblood. To enrich the life of children is to fuel and ignite their curiosity in every single facet of the world around them.

April's Window was written to do just this. There is not a child that has read this story and walked away without questions and intrigue at the pictures they explored and the words that so poetically adorned them.
